Yan Shuang, the chief of the four great protectors of the Demon Cult, is far too idle and unambitious.
Everyone who knows her says that without her childhood bond with the cult leader, she wouldn't even be worthy of carrying Miss Lian's shoes.
Yan Shuang: That's right, she's noble, she's amazing. Nobodies like me aren't worthy!
When she is reborn, she already knows she's the vicious female supporting character in a xianxia novel, while Miss Lian Song, admired by everyone and adored by all those around Yan Shuang, is the favored daughter of Heaven itself.
Unbelievable luck, outstanding talent, a pure heart, unshakable perseverance, and beauty that could topple kingdoms: every good quality in the world seems to belong to her.
In her previous life, Yan Shuang didn't know her place. She foolishly tried to pit her rotten egg of a self against someone else's precious jade.
As a result, her superior ran off with Miss Lian, all her childhood friends became Miss Lian's close friends and confidants, and even all her underlings defected. Yan Shuang died miserably at the foot of a cliff, with no one to bury her.
After being reborn, Yan Shuang sees the light: she can just be a happy couch potato. Why get involved in someone else's affairs? Isn't it better to eat and drink well and enjoy the view of handsome men and beautiful women?
Yan Shuang, who has decided to lie flat, just wants to be a quiet salted fish basking in the sun. Every now and then, she enjoys watching the drama, and it's amusing enough to see her superior and other men compete to join Miss Lian's harem.
But she never expected that, apart from her, everyone in Lian Song's harem would be reborn!
Oh no, oh no, oh no!
Onlookers: A whole bunch of enemies are back for revenge. Why aren't you running?
Yan Shuang: I have a pen pal. What do I have to fear?
Yan Shuang has a secret no one knows: her pen pal and best friend is a female war god from the Heavenly Court!
Pen pal (best friend): "Don't worry. I'll protect you."
Yan Shuang: Mwah, love you, baby! (Sisters really are the most reliable. Men can all step aside!)
Pen pal (best friend): "But I went to great lengths to save you. Even family should settle their accounts fairly, so what can you offer me in return?"
Yan Shuang: "I'll go through fire and water for you!"
Her pen pal (best friend) smiles and pulls Yan Shuang into her arms, whispering in her ear: "How could I bear to put you through that?"
Yan Shuang: Huh? Huh? Baby, this isn't how you're supposed to act!
Pen pal (best friend): "Oh? Then who was it that told me that night she would marry no one but me?"
Help! She thought her pen pal was a girl. She thought they were just making the occasional risqué joke between best friends!
As expected, the War God keeps her word, giving Yan Shuang a wedding procession ten miles long and a lifetime of devotion!
Yan Shuang: It's not that I'm useless. It's just that you're giving me way too much, Great One!
Things to know before reading: 1. A lazy, flopping-around little monster VS a flirtatious boss who loves that sort of thing
2. The writing is amateurish and clichéd, with all the old tropes.
3. The male lead has a cross-dressing scene for plot reasons. Please read with caution if that's not your thing.
