What's Wrong with This Supporting Female Character's Script?

Lin Yanxi has worked in the Transmigration Department for years. She has no ambitions, but she hasn't completely decided to lie flat either, and her task performance has always been neither great nor terrible.

Then the Transmigration Department got a major overhaul. Points, fame, and merchandise royalties were all put up for grabs. Lin Yanxi sprang straight up like a lazy fish, rekindled the work ethic she'd neglected for years, and swore to become the most improved employee!

But how did her first step toward improvement turn into dealing with the breakdown and corruption of a character halo bought secondhand?!

World One: Please Cooperate with the Ghost Girl and Help Her Put on a Show

As a wicked rich-girl supporting character, Lin Yanxi was supposed to bully the sweet, innocent heroine, get humiliated in turn by the first, second, third, and fourth male leads, and end up homeless.

But beneath the character label of "Rich Girl," a "ghost" black as blood-red flickered in and out of sight. From then on, the plot began veering in a strange direction.

The gentle second male lead, who was supposed to be disappointed in and disgusted by her, secretly bled himself to make spicy blood curd stew for his ghost-possessed sister. "I watched them draw this blood fresh. It's healthy, and it doesn't smell weird, little sister."

He smiled with infinite gentleness, while his arm, hidden inside his sleeve, was covered in knife marks.

The fierce third male lead, who was supposed to be blunt and merciless toward her, pressed her head to the side of his neck, his expression both restrained and indulgent. "Last time, you drank too fast and bit me hard enough to hurt. Go easy this time."

On top of that, the first male lead, her followers, and even the heroine all changed, too.

Lin Yanxi: "Weren't you supposed to humiliate me? Why are you all chasing after me? This plot has people chasing ghosts, and it makes no sense!"

Wait, why has everyone turned evil, too?!

World Two: After the Love-Struck Supporting Actress Jumps into the Sea, She Becomes a Mermaid and Gets Fished Out by the Nation

This time, Lin Yanxi is a love-struck substitute supporting actress. She dates the male lead during the five years the heroine is abroad. After the heroine returns, Lin Yanxi spends a year battling her wits against hers. At the end of the story, the two women are kidnapped together, and the kidnappers ask the male lead to choose one of them.

The male lead tearfully chooses the heroine, and the supporting actress jumps into the sea in despair.

And so the story ends...

Huh? Why hasn't it ended?

Beneath the character label "Love-Struck," a new label suddenly appears: "Mermaid"!

On a certain day in a certain month and year, a maritime patrol fleet set a record by discovering an anomalous creature at night: a mermaid.

The nation immediately dispatched people to investigate her background. The mermaid had come ashore after being unable to win the love she wanted, then plunged into the sea in sorrow. Her body was about to dissolve into sea foam.

They promptly gathered a whole lineup of candidates fit to be the leads in a romance novel: a highly intelligent doctoral student, a stern special forces soldier, a sunny young chef, a scheming psychologist, and more. They were all available for the mermaid to choose from.

As long as the mermaid agreed, she would have a devoted, custom-made lover who would never betray her.

She could even have several. That was the order from above.

Lin Yanxi shouted, "But I'm not here to write a harem story!"

The mermaid, unwilling to take the harem route, turned around and started building a career instead, becoming the first fish to usher in the spiritual qi revival.

The Money-Grubbing Catfishing Supporting Actress Who Runs Off with the Cash Is a Dragon

Why can't you humans be sensible and obediently hand over your gold coins? You're bullying a dragon too much! A group of dragons roared at the heavenly dragons who'd been catfished online and were supposed to take revenge on the supporting actress.
