[A theatrical heroine who’s always plotting her escape × a cool, scheming hero / sweet romance / marriage before love / lighthearted daily life]
[The paper-doll character awakens]
Yan Ran opens her eyes to find herself transmigrated into an old-fashioned novel as a universally hated cannon-fodder supporting female character.
She remembers the original plot: when their five-year marriage ends, she and the male lead will part ways. She’ll turn her love into hatred and keep going after the novel’s heroine.
She’ll make trouble for the heroine, and the male lead will leave her penniless and homeless.
Still refusing to give up, the original character will try to push the heroine while she’s climbing a mountain. Instead, the bodyguards arranged by the male lead will shove her aside first, sending her over a cliff to her death.
When Yan Ran arrives, the male lead, Pei Xiumo, has just shoved her to the ground.
Pei Xiumo: “How many times do I have to tell you? I’m not interested in you.”
Yan Ran puts her acting skills as a B-list actress to work, delivering a performance of utter heartbreak: “Waaah, I’ll never do it again.”
Yan Ran starts looking for every possible way to escape, determined to get away from the original plot and stay out of the leads’ love story.
In public, she plays Pei Xiumo’s perfect wife, hoping to erase his bad impression of her.
In private, she keeps as much distance from him as possible, ready to leave as soon as the heroine shows up.
But what is this man doing? Why is a tycoon worth hundreds of billions following her to her rental apartment?
She grits her teeth and endures it for two months, waiting for the heroine to hurry up and take him away.
Yet when the heroine finally appears, the man acts as though he couldn’t care less.
He grabs Yan Ran by the shoulders and demands:
“You’re going away on a business trip for a month? With that handsome photographer?”
“Do you even remember that you’re married, hmm?”
By the time Yan Ran realizes that she and Pei Xiumo have strayed so far from the original plot that they’re in danger, it’s already too late.
