Xue Caitang seemed to have been cursed by the god of misfortune ever since she was a child.
When she grew up, she entered the entertainment industry to work off her debts, relying on her stunning looks. But she was replaced in a film, lost an endorsement deal, and even a drink of water got turned into a clip titled “Celebrity Throws a Tantrum.”
The entire internet had the same verdict: Other than her face, she was good for nothing.
Even she couldn't help wondering: Who did I offend?
Then a bizarre car accident sent her crashing into a small world where people could cultivate. There, hard work was all it took to grow stronger.
She found a master and trained diligently every day, only for another explosion to send her back to her original world!
Here, she was the male lead's nominal fiancée and the female lead's foil, getting face-slapping treatment every chapter. In the end, she was reviled across the internet, bitterly quit showbiz, went bankrupt, and eventually married an impoverished old man who beat her.
She wanted to quit the role...
But the will of the world coldly informed her: You are the villainess of this book. Your only purpose is to make the female lead shine.
Xue Caitang: So I wasn't unlucky, I deserved to be unlucky?
But it didn't matter. She wasn't the same pitiful girl she used to be.
Though... she was the only one who knew her secret!
The top trending topic was still #XueCaitangGetOutOfShowbiz, and her haters were rubbing their hands together, waiting for her to appear on a new variety show called Exploring the Supernatural, ready to screenshot every frame and mock her.
But on the first day of filming...
A top-tier star suddenly dropped to his knees in front of her. “Teacher Xue, please protect me!”
The next day...
The school auditorium shook eerily in the middle of the night. She casually slapped a yellow talisman on the door, and everything fell quiet.
The third day...
People from a certain national department quietly arrived and received a bright yellow talisman from her, their manner more respectful than when meeting their superiors.
Before the show had even finished airing, the guests had all changed sides and posted their support for her.
Her haters were baffled. “How much did she pay for all this publicity?”
They eagerly began digging into her past, only to find that collapsed ancient tombs, abnormal thunderstorms, and confidential files hurriedly encrypted by a certain department were all verifiable rumors.
The trending topics exploded again: #WhoExactlyIsXueCaitang?
But this time, no one dared insult her.

Xue Caitang was doing her best to complete the tasks and get back. Who could have guessed that the show's investor would turn out to be her first love from college?
And he was a benevolent man across a hundred lifetimes, coveted by countless ghosts?
What should she do... take care of it or not?
