The good news: after Su Ruan dies, she transmigrates into a book, and can earn a chance to be reborn by completing her mission.
The bad news: she's become the vicious female supporting character who humiliates and torments the male lead at every turn. In the end, he'll cut her into a human stump, leaving her to fight pigs for scraps.
Su Ruan decides: From now on, she'll cling tightly to the male lead!
The System warns her: [As a vicious female supporting character, Su Ruan would never try to please the male lead!]
Su Ruan has an answer: If she can't do it openly, she'll do it in secret!
So when the male lead gets hurt, she secretly brings him medicine. When a gang of thugs corners him, she saves him in disguise...
Just as she's about to complete the mission and leave, she realizes something seems off about the male lead.
Why does he have to hold her clothes when he sleeps?
Why does she have to act out all the female lead's scenes?
Why does the male lead go crazy looking for her after she fakes her death by jumping into the sea?
She's just a disposable extra, so why does she have more to worry about than the female lead? Is there no justice?
When her mission is complete and she's ready to run, the male lead looks pitiful and says, "Ruanruan, I'm a traditional man. If you don't want me, I'll have no choice but to become a monk."
Su Ruan: "Where's the dark, crazy male lead I was promised? Who the hell is this fake innocent schemer?"
