For fifty million yuan, Ye Shengsheng transmigrates into the novel The CEO's Substitute Bride and becomes the wicked female supporting character.
The System tells her: follow the main plot, bring the male and female leads together, redeem the villain, then push him into becoming evil again. Complete the mission to go home.
She takes a deep breath and begins her performance, acting gentle and refined on the outside, full of schemes, while ranting wildly inside: “What on earth is appealing about the male lead's sharp-tongued persona? And villain, why won't you hate me already? Stop looking at me with those puppy-dog eyes! Help, I want to go home...”
Wait!
Why is the male lead suddenly looking at her with red ears?
Why has the villain gone from a homeless man with no will to fight to gazing at her as if she's a ghost?
The System breaks down as it announces: “Warning! World-collapse bug triggered: both the male lead and the villain can hear your inner thoughts!”
Ye Shengsheng: ...???
This is bad. All her lines pretending to be evil are being translated into her inner monologue in real time. Now everyone knows she looks like she has eight hundred schemes up her sleeve, but not one of them is genuine.
Turning evil? Not happening. But she's definitely caught the love bug.
When a wicked supporting character's inner monologue becomes the biggest spoiler in the whole story, the male lead stops following the script and acting like a cold CEO, the villain stops going mad as the original plot dictates, and everyone starts chasing after her.
And she still has no idea that every little secret hidden in those beautiful eyes of hers has already been heard, loud and clear.
