After They Heard My Thoughts, the Most Hated Girl Became Everyone's Favorite

[Mind Reading + Gossip + Soapy Drama + Everyone's Darling + Sharp Tongue]

A lone spirit from the underworld wanders along the River of the Dead for ten thousand years. Then, one day, she transmigrates into a book. Though she's the real heiress, she's also a doomed, unhinged cannon-fodder character. On top of having a white-lotus fake heiress in the family, she has a grandmother who can't stand her and slaps her the moment they meet.

Yan Guiti: Huh? You really think I'm someone you can mess with? She slaps the fake heiress right back.

And while she's at it, she drops a bombshell: [The fake heiress stashed forged embezzlement ledgers in that scumbag father's study. The whole Yan household is about to be exiled!]

Scumbag father: Deal with it, quick! Don't worry, darling, the Yan family won't fall!

She'd planned to lie flat and keep a low profile for the rest of her life, but on her very first day out, the playboy male lead uses his power to threaten her.

Yan Guiti: ?

Fine, fine! In this wretched age of imperial supremacy, she's putting it out there today: sooner or later, she'll trample the male lead underfoot!

Yan Guiti smiles on the outside and curses up a storm inside, embarking on an “irreversible path” of gossip and career advancement.

But she never expected everyone in the capital to suddenly gain the ability to read minds and be “forced” to join her as melons in the gossip patch, having the time of their lives:

[Well, well, isn't that this year's top imperial exam scholar? He dumped his wife, married into the princess's household, and the craziest part is, he's actually a woman!]

[The Xuanwei Commandant looks like a stuffy old official. Who'd have thought he'd be wildly declaring his love outside a young widow's door at night?]

[Breaking news! A great scholar of our time is shooting people in the butt with a slingshot!]

Everyone keeps a straight face, but inside they're all having the time of their lives in the gossip patch, chasing after her for more juicy stories.

Yan Guiti, horrified: What the hell, stay back! Wasn't I the most hated person in the capital? Why are you all chasing me?

When she looks back, the whole capital is her army!
