[Sweet romance + the second male lead’s remorseful pursuit + betrayal + mutual first love]
Cheng Qingqing learns that she is the cannon-fodder female supporting character in a contemporary romance novel.
And the male lead is her fiancé!
In the original story, she meddles in the relationship between the leads and is punished by her fiancé’s uncle, a sinister villain who also loves the heroine. She ends up dead, without even a body left behind.
But as long as she follows the vicious supporting character’s plotline and successfully prevents the villain from becoming interested in the heroine, ensuring that the original couple gets their happy ending, she can escape the story.
If she fails, she’ll be erased!
To stay alive, Cheng Qingqing is “forced to stir up trouble” every day.
To her fiancé: “Why do you like that bitch? She’s so poor. What’s so great about her?”
[I’m sorry, heroine!]
To the sweet, innocent heroine: she marches up and slaps her!
[I’m twice as sorry!]
To the villain: she blocks the heroine’s path and smiles stiffly. “Uncle, can we talk outside?”
[I’m begging you. Please, just do me this favor, okay?]
But what she doesn’t know is that the villain can hear her thoughts!
Lu Jingyuan realizes that Cheng Qingqing has been acting strangely lately.
On the trending page, she’s obsessively chasing Lu Xi and openly bullying Ye Xinwei.
In private, though, she’s like a frightened kitten, and her inner monologue is full of complaints.
Without realizing it, he finds himself drawn to her and gradually grows closer…
At a family gathering one day,
he pins her against the bedroom door, his fingertips brushing her trembling lashes.
“Cheng Qingqing, you’re chasing Lu Xi relentlessly while going to such lengths to ruin my ‘romance.’ Tell me, what exactly are you trying to do?”
Alarm bells blare in Cheng Qingqing’s mind. She stammers, “I… I’m doing this for your own good. Ye Xinwei isn’t right for you.”
[Oh no! Does that old guy have a thing for me?]
