She transmigrates into the unlucky real daughter in a novel about a rich family’s real and fake heiresses. From the start, she’s betrayed by her scumbag boyfriend and blacklisted by the entire internet until she lands in the hospital. The original owner was a people-pleaser who was crushed by the fake heiress and died depressed. Looking at this miserable script, Li Wan laughs. “I’m done pretending!”
The day she gets out of the hospital, she goes live with her IV stand in hand and calls out to her haters: “Come on! Hit me!” The comments explode: [First time I’ve seen someone with a ‘come hit me’ personality!]
Labeled the craziest female celebrity on the internet, she storms onto the dating show Heartbeat Hunt. A smug male contestant makes a snide remark? She kicks him into the pool! A date activity? She sets up a braised-snack stall! A love letter? She flings a business proposal at him!
Even more absurdly, the crazier she acts, the more unbelievably lucky she gets. The braised-snack shop she casually invests in doubles in value, a distant aunt gives her three homes slated for demolition, and a stock she mentions in passing hits its daily limit the very next day.
Powerful investors threaten to blacklist her. At the crucial moment, Zhou Yanbai, head of the Yanbai Group, makes a surprise appearance on the show. “I’m here to pursue my future wife.” He sits with her at a roadside stall, then gets her an excavator the next day, just because she happened to mention one. The director breaks down. “This is a dating show!” Zhou Yanbai doesn’t bat an eye. “I’m pursuing my wife on a dating show.”
On the final night, Li Wan tears up the “confession” script. “I, Li Wan, was born to be the main character. I don’t need anyone else’s script!” Zhou Yanbai drops to one knee. “Then will you let me be your supporting character for the rest of your life?”
She grabs his tie. “Fine. Your trial period lasts a lifetime.”
