The Original Female Lead Refuses to Be a Cannon Fodder

Wen Lin dreamed that her world was actually a wish-fulfillment novel about the entertainment industry, and she was the original heroine.

In the novel, the transmigrated heroine took over the body of a disgraced, universally hated green-tea supporting actress. The heroine had no desire to follow the plot and wanted to quit the entertainment industry and focus on her own life. But faced with a sky-high breach-of-contract fee, she had no choice but to join a dating show and perform alongside Wen Lin and the male lead.

On the show, the heroine won countless fans with her quirky, unconventional style and became a huge star.

In the end, the male lead, who was originally paired with Wen Lin, fell in love with the heroine, and they got their happy ending. Meanwhile, Wen Lin was exposed as the truly malicious white-lotus green-tea bitch and got what she deserved: the male lead's fans splashed her with sulfuric acid, and she died horribly.

Wen Lin: ...? Excuse me, what kind of human language is this?

[If you don't want to end up like that, take the male lead back from the transmigrated heroine...]

"Wait, wait. Are you saying," Wen Lin interrupted the thing claiming to be a Fate-Reversal System, "that in the original novel the heroine read, the original owner of the body she transmigrated into ended up bankrupt and drowning in debt because of the male lead, who also had her completely blacklisted so she couldn't get any work, and then his fans splashed her with sulfuric acid... but the male leads all have tragic reasons that can clear their names?"

"And I, the original heroine, who isn't even competing with her for work and had already been reduced to a mere plot device long ago, am the irredeemably evil woman in the story?"

"And now your grand plan as a Fate-Reversal System is for me to steal the male lead?"

"Who loves nesting dolls this much? The author makes the heroine reclaim secondhand trash from me, then you want me to reclaim thirdhand trash from the heroine. Is collecting trash the KPI you have to meet to become the protagonist of the world?"

"Xi ba! You lunatics can stay together forever. Go die, too, and stop coming out to ruin my life."

The System had assumed that with a Host like Wen Lin, who refused to cooperate with the System's fate-reversal script in the slightest, she would never reclaim the protagonist's spotlight, and the two of them were doomed.

But for some reason, it was the male lead and the transmigrated heroine who ended up doomed, while its own Host, now relegated to a supporting role, became more and more famous...

Wen Lin rolled her eyes. "I was already famous as hell. That trashy heroine, hated across the whole internet for her terrible character, and that talentless nobody of a male lead mentioning me is just them clout-chasing, okay?"

Theme: Live well.
