The Little Mermaid Becomes a Difficult Female Supporting Character on a Dating Show

After the little mermaid Qin Jin accidentally came ashore, she entered the world of a romance-variety novel with a System mission and became the female lead's troublemaking foil, a spoiled supporting character. In the book, she was a troublesome fake heiress from a wealthy family, with a bad temper and a strange personality. Aside from her face, she was good for nothing, and was about to appear on the same dating show as the four ex-boyfriends she had treated badly. As the foil on the show, she was constantly outshone by the female lead, who had the protagonist's halo. When she found out all her exes liked the female lead, she made a huge fuss and tried to get them back, only to backfire and make everyone hate her. On top of that, as the show aired, her parents discovered that the female lead was the real daughter of the Qin family, while she was only a fake. Unable to take it, she eventually suffered a mental breakdown and left the entertainment industry. System: "Even so, you have to stand up for yourself and compete with the female lead for your family's and the male leads' affection! Only then can you regain your true mermaid form and return to the sea! Come on, let's call your adoptive parents first and sweet-talk them to secure your position!" Qin Jin, who had finally gotten a human body: ? She called her adoptive parents right away and brought them to the reunion, so the female lead could join hands with them and become one big happy family. "Congratulations on finding each other. From now on, you'll be a happy family!" System: "??? Host, please stand up for yourself! You won't earn any affection points like this, and you won't be able to return to the sea!" Lazy fish flicks her tail: Can't stand up for myself. After joining the cast, the little mermaid gave up even more completely. Ex-boyfriend 1 and the female lead danced beneath the moon. The little mermaid lounged in the pool, holding a handful of melon seeds, cracking them and blowing bubbles. Ex-boyfriend 2 rode a motorcycle with the female lead, pressed close to her. The little mermaid obediently put on a mask to avoid breathing in the exhaust. Ex-boyfriends 3 and 4 argued over the female lead. The little mermaid sat obediently on the sofa, eating an apple and watching the show. Ex-boyfriends 1, 2, 3, and 4: ... * Before the show began Obsessive singer: "No matter what she does, I won't fall for her again." Second-generation rich bad boy: "I'll make her cry and beg for my forgiveness." Ruthless domineering CEO: "You heartless woman, I'll make you pay for betraying me." Cold movie star: "This time, I won't even spare her a glance." After the show began Obsessive singer: "She said my voice sounds like it's been kissed by an angel. She still understands me so well." Viewers: ??? She only said that dog's breakup song was pretty good, just not as good as yours. Are you sure she was complimenting you? Second-generation rich bad boy: "Damn, when she cries, I can't take it. I almost want to get on my knees for her." Viewers: ??? Was she crying for you? She was clearly moved to tears by the tragic love story between the chickens and ducks at the gate. Why are you getting on your knees? Ruthless domineering CEO: "She's not really a heartbreaker.
