Gao Shiqing is a female supporting character, professionally devoted to suffering. Her duties include, but are not limited to, being abandoned by the male lead, watching her family business go bankrupt and becoming a stepping stone for him, and seeing her family destroyed so she can hand the realm over to him... She's always either being tormented or on her way to being tormented.
At last, one day, she rose up, broke free from the shackles of the plot, and started fighting back against this godforsaken fate.
Being tormented and getting face-slapped? Those were things from her past life!
From the moment she escaped the plot's restraints, the thing Gao Shiqing could stand least was someone being even more awesome than her.
What's the motto of us female supporting characters?
If you're going to do it, be TOP 1! Female supporting characters are the absolute best!
[The male lead's cannon-fodder former fiancée in a sweet, doting wealthy-family romance] - If you won't work hard, I will. While you date, I'll work hard. After poaching your subordinates, I'll poach your projects. Tomorrow, I'll be the richest person in the country!
[The childhood bride and fiancée abandoned by the male lead in a cultivation novel] - Thanks for asking. I joined the sect the day before yesterday, and had just shouted at the male lead, "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river. Don't bully a poor young man!" Today I found out I'm the male lead's grandmaster. I stroll over to the disciples' hall on schedule every day to enjoy his grand bow of reverence. It's great.
[The universally hated female supporting character and foil to the lucky female lead in the entertainment industry] - The day the news broke that I had successfully conquered cancer, my haters livestreamed themselves kneeling and calling me Grandma. I laughed and said, "You unfilial brats are hilarious. How dare you call yourselves my grandsons?"
[The noblewoman used as a stepping stone and then cast aside by the male lead in a tale of conquest, only to meet a tragic end] - We took the capital the day before yesterday. It seems someone tied up the male lead and wanted to offer him to me as a consort, but how could my harem become a trash can?
[The real heiress rejected by her wealthy biological parents] - A month after my full-dive online game went public, my biological parents clutched their worthless shares and watched me become the newest richest person in the country, tears of regret streaming down their faces.
What should be the goal of us female supporting characters?
The stars and the sea!
I wake with a three-foot sword in hand, and laugh as I take the power of the world into my grasp.
...This story is dedicated to all those male leads in brainless novels who once poisoned my intelligence.
After years of oppression, the heroine has a terminal case of TOP addiction. She can't stand anyone who can show off more than she can, and at certain times her thought process may seem a little off to normal people.
After all, she's a pitiful overworked office drone who suffered oppression for years. Now that she's finally free, she can't help wanting to let loose.
The couples vary from one world to another. There may not be one; it depends on how the story develops.
Most worlds don't portray the original female leads negatively; that depends on how the characters are written.
