[Bold heiress × catlike cool guy]
After living for over twenty years, Lu Baozhen finally discovers the truth:
She is actually the fake heiress in a story about a real and fake heiress.
The real heiress has just been brought back, and Lu Baozhen has just splashed red wine all over her.
Lu Baozhen: Oh no, I'm doomed!
To keep her cushy life where she never has to lift a finger for food or clothing, Lu Baozhen immediately drops to her knees and decides to cling to the real heiress.
But she never expected that the real heiress came with a System, one designed specifically to humiliate her.
[Face-Slapping System 001, at your service.]
[Face-Slapping Target: Lu Baozhen]
[Face-Slapping Progress: 5%]
[Keep up the good work~]
Lu Baozhen: ?

Ever since she discovered that she could see the real heiress's System, Lu Baozhen has started predicting what will happen next.
The variety show Reboot! Life!
A large-scale reality show with no script and a full livestream, hailed as "the ultimate test for celebrities."
The System says that when the heroine crushes her talent-show performance with her Suzhou pingtan singing, Lu Baozhen will grow resentful and spread rumors in a fit of rage. Lu Baozhen promptly grabs a suona and plays "A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix," a stirring, earthshaking performance.
The System says that she'll refuse to plant rice seedlings in the fields because she can't stand the dirt, then throw a tantrum and act like a diva. Lu Baozhen charges straight into the outhouse, hauls more than ten loads of manure, and even shares a few tips on how to carry it with ease.
She only wanted to stay out of the plot and keep herself alive. But after all her bizarre antics, the second male lead from the original story, who couldn't stand her and whom she couldn't stand either, starts watching her with great interest.
Lu Baozhen: What are you staring at?
Xiao Ye, whose advances are wasted on the blind: ?
*
Xiao Ye is an all-around musical genius, acclaimed throughout the industry. He sings and dances beautifully, and his looks are second to none.
But he has a mouth sharp enough to poison people.
He acts like he owns the world and looks down on everyone. When his lips part, nobody walks away from his words smiling.
Everyone says, "Beautiful, but absolutely vicious."
Then he meets Lu Baozhen.
That lunatic.
Xiao Ye doesn't know why he's so taken with this madwoman. He only knows that when she rides a pig past him, nearly knocking him off the embankment, his heart starts racing out of control.
Holy crap.
Watching Lu Baozhen ride off on the pig, Xiao Ye holds his chest and ponders.
Could I have fallen for her?

# A flushed face and a racing heart don't always mean love. They might mean you're terrified.
# What do I do if the girl I like seems to hate me?
# Are pigs really that easy to ride?
Reader's guide:
1. This is my take on the entertainment industry, with tons of original worldbuilding. Everything serves the plot.
2. The author is an ordinary office worker. My idea of life among the wealthy comes entirely from my imagination, so please go easy on any implausibilities.
3. The characters' values don't represent the author's. You can criticize the characters, but that doesn't mean you can criticize me too!
4. All characters are original and not based on real people.
5. I'll add more if I think of anything…
Theme: Mountains may crumble and people may leave, so the only person you can rely on is yourself.
It's been 20 days, are you still updating? [Lying down]
[Let me see] Keep updating, YaYaBaby! Just passing by to show my support, waiting for it to be finished 💛
I hope the female lead is the only one who shines; the male lead is just not likable. [Lying down]
The male lead's character is unlikable; he's like a background figure, and there's no chemistry between them. He's not as beautiful as the female lead.
No! Why are you doing this to our Baozhen?
No! Wen Ling can't be a bad person, can she?
Hosting a variety show in the countryside—this is practically our female lead's stage! She's got everything under control!
