Don't Chase Me, It Won't Work

[Author's Blurb]

Tao Youqing liked Zhou Yirou and had been her secret lover for several years.

But she knew Zhou Yirou didn't like her at all. She only saw her as a substitute, a pretty ornament to look at.

Tao Youqing had thought that if she just spent more time on her, she could warm Zhou Yirou's heart and make her forget about her unattainable first love and look at her instead. But as time went by, she realized that Zhou Yirou hadn't warmed up to her. Instead, her own passionate feelings had grown tired, and she couldn't keep loving her.

At last, she decided to let go for good and stop loving Zhou Yirou.

If she doesn't love me, so be it. The next one will be more obedient!

But she never expected that after she let go, Zhou Yirou would fall for her and want to get back together.

Get back together?

Tao Youqing refused. "No thanks. The broken mirror says it doesn't want to be put back together."

Didn't believe that she no longer liked her?

Tao Youqing simply found a shield to hide behind. "Sorry, I already like someone else."

"Her name is Yuan Churui."

Yuan Churui was a renowned entrepreneur, both President Yuan of Moon Chant Entertainment and the Young Chairwoman of the Yuan Group. Her wealth and status were so formidable that people hardly dared approach her.

At the time, Tao Youqing thought, She's far away and out of reach. Yuan Churui probably won't find out.

But Yuan Churui did find out, and even threw a dating contract at her.

Yuan Churui smiled faintly. "Sign it. Didn't you say you liked me?"

Tao Youqing: "..."

She hadn't expected things to turn out like this either!

One day, Wen Shixue, heiress to the Wen Group, hits her head and discovers that she's living inside a romance novel. Worse yet, she's not the heroine, but the villainess!

In the story, after falling in love with the male lead and failing to win his heart, she'll turn evil, abandon her billion-dollar inheritance to chase after him every day, and become the biggest obstacle in the leads' romance.

Wen Shixue, handed the villainess's script: Tsk, I must be crazy. [Meme of an old man looking at his phone on the subway]

Being lovesick will only leave her with nothing. Isn't inheriting the family fortune much better?

She doesn't want to work hard, so she might as well inherit the fortune and live out a simple, unassuming life as a rich heiress!

And those romance-novel leads, born with a spotlight shining on them...

Wen Shixue smiled faintly. "Wouldn't they be more useful for making money?"

Male lead/Female lead: ???

As for dating...

Wen Shixue: I'll shine all by myself!

Wait, why is Qin Zhen, the deputy general manager who teaches her how to run the company and couldn't be more proper, kind of tempting?

A little scene with the couple:

Qin Zhen: "You're the most difficult person I've ever had to manage."

Wen Shixue: "Funny, you're the hardest person I've ever tried to flirt with."

Wen Shixue: "Looks like we're evenly matched."

Wen Shixue (clapping): "By substitution, that means we're made for each other!"

Qin Zhen: "...?"

Is that how substitution works???
