Shen Wei traveled into the novel "Fenghua Lu" written by herself.
The system told her that as long as the male protagonist Xiao Jue fell in love with her, she could go home if her favorability level was full. So she blocked the knife for him according to the plot, held him to keep him warm when the cold poison broke out, and handed the phoenix seal to his hand before he ascended the throne. The favorability level increased step by step, from 5 points to 92 points. She thought she was about to complete the task.
But the system said: "The mission failed, the male protagonist loves the original female protagonist."
"But I am the original heroine."
The system was silent for a long time: "No, the original heroine has been logged out. You are the supporting actress."
Only then did Shen Wei realize that the book she had written had been altered beyond recognition. The real original heroine disappeared. She was stuffed into the empty shell of "Shen Wei" and was forced to follow someone else's path with the title of supporting actress. And every time Xiao Jue saw her, was it "her" that reflected in his eyes, or the name that had been written off long ago?
She couldn't tell the difference. Just like she couldn't tell whether those nights hugging each other by the cold pool, the seven days and nights waiting in front of the medicine jar, and the roads they walked side by side under the moonlight were the mission or her own heartbeat.
Shen Ruyan held the jade flute and stood at the end of the plank road in Wohu Ridge and said: "Some things are said too late, which is worse than never said at all."
And Xiao Jue squatted in the afternoon sunlight and said something to her: "I remember."
Shen Wei clutched the shriveled date and thought, let's keep walking. No matter who she is - even if she is an impersonated "female supporting character", she wants him to know that she did those things. She was the one who blocked the knife for him, she was the one who made the medicine for him, and she was the one who walked with him through the dark river.
