Coming soon: The Devoted Second Male Lead Has a Green Tea Script and I Cure Illnesses by Studying
Ji Wu, the foremost cultivator in the Three Realms and a master of the Heartless Dao, accidentally transmigrates into a Mary Sue novel full of suitors while ascending. Stripped of her powers, she becomes a doomed cannon-fodder character who clings relentlessly to the female lead and all sorts of powerful men. She’s a little-known celebrity, infamous online for phoning it in on variety shows, terrible acting, and a bad temper.
Ji Wu: Being cannon fodder is great. I love being a cannon-fodder character nobody loves!
Suddenly, someone tugs at her pant leg. Ji Wu looks down into a pair of big, watery eyes. “Mommy, I’m hungry!”
Ji Wu: ???!
Ji Wu has never looked after a child. To keep cultivating the Heartless Dao and earn a little money for formula, she tries to get by. Then viewers discover that Ji Wu, who used to make a scene and get savaged online, is...
On a variety show, the men and women are paired up to farm as part of a dating program, but she buries herself in planting rice seedlings all alone.
A male guest, desperate for some interaction, goes over and hears her quietly counting: “One seedling, two seedlings, three...”
In the end, she grows an ordinary-looking spirit plant from the Immortal Realm.
The program’s rice-growing expert is astonished by the yield, Ji Wu receives an award from the National Academy of Sciences, and the dating show is repeatedly aired on the Central Agriculture Channel.
Haters: ???
The cast is filming in the snowy mountains under harsh conditions. The original female lead falls ill, while Ji Wu, protected by her cultivation, dives into a snowy lake to shoot a difficult action scene. Afraid the female lead will hold up production, she even transfers spiritual energy to her.
Haters watching behind-the-scenes footage of their sisterly bond: ???
The powerful men also realize that the devoted admirer who supposedly loved them most is gone.
Powerful Man A: Where is she? Just yesterday she said I was the first person she wanted to see after work.
Powerful Man B: She promised to spend the weekend with me. I haven’t even turned her down yet!
Powerful Man C: I never said I wouldn’t let you play the new female lead in this show. Come back!
Later, Ji Wu becomes a best actress with tens of millions of career-focused fans. During a surprise livestream by the production crew...
Ji Wu is soothing a pretty little boy: “It’s so hard to earn money for formula. Mommy should just teach you to cultivate. You don’t need to eat when you cultivate.”
The boy quietly pulls out a black card. “...Mom, if it’s too tiring, stop working. Your son has money now. Spend it.”
Powerful Man A: ??? My son!
Powerful Men B and C: Bah, he’s mine!
Fans: Bah, he’s ours!
Coming soon: The Devoted Second Male Lead Has a Green Tea Script
Blurb: Wen Mian has returned from a palace-intrigue novel. She was originally the white moonlight in a melodramatic stand-in romance, a saintly woman through and through. In the future, she would get caught up in a love-hate relationship with the male lead and die saving him.
Wen Mian, back from the novel: Oh my god, was I an idiot or what!
She immediately dumps her adoptive mother, who is faking cancer to sell her for an exorbitant price, avoids the original plot, and goes into acting.
After joining a production, Wen Mian focuses on her career, but her ex-boyfriends keep approaching her.
Her wealthy ex, the male lead: “I want to bring Mianmian the first cup of milk tea of winter.”
Her former ex, a talented director: “We can use a stand-in for the kissing scene. Don’t get too close to anyone else.”
Her ex before that, a devoted supporting male character: “Mianmian, I’m sick. Can you come look after me?”
Just as Wen Mian is about to go care for the third ex, the green tea second male lead, who deliberately caught a fever by taking a cold shower, grabs her by the hem. His eyes are red with fever. “Mianmian, I heard they’re going to blacklist me. Sniff... I’m scared.”
Wen Mian: “...Don’t be scared. I’ll stay with you.”
Later, the show airs and its behind-the-scenes clips become a huge hit. Fans notice how close the second male lead and Wen Mian are.
He’s the one who brings her milk tea, deliberately messes up the kissing scene, and gets a fever that makes his eyes red so he can use his sugary words to keep Wen Mian from leaving!
The whole internet is baffled: Why is Wen Mian always with the second male lead? Are the other actors bullying her?
Wen Mian’s ex-boyfriends: You think I don’t want to see Mianmian? That green tea guy always hogs her!
Wen Mian, who knows exactly what he’s like: “Stop pretending.”
The arm around her waist tightens slowly, and his innocent voice sounds out: “Wasn’t this the side of me you liked best before, Mianmian?”
*
When Wen Mian died in her previous life, the one thing she regretted was taking her own life and returning. The young eunuch she had once saved on a whim turned out to be a treacherous minister. When he led an army into the imperial capital to rebel, Wen Mian feared being violated and poisoned herself. So she never knew that after she died, Fu Wenshen, wearing cold armor, held her body and kissed her again and again in inconsolable grief before taking his own life.
From beginning to end, he rebelled only so that she could be his empress.
Coming soon: I Cure Illnesses by Studying
Blurb: At sixteen, Yu Weiwei is brought back into her wealthy birth family. That year, Gu Chenjin saves her, and she becomes his devoted admirer.
Neglecting her studies while pursuing her beloved, she only manages to get into a vocational college. Her white-lotus older sister tramples her underfoot, and everyone mocks her.
At twenty, Yu Weiwei is diagnosed with a terminal illness. Before she dies, she confesses her feelings.
The young man, who has already been accepted into Tsinghua University, lies: “I’m terminally ill, actually. I can’t ruin your life.”
Yu Weiwei coughs up blood, both sad and delighted: “That’s great! I’m terminally ill too. We can share a hospital room!”
Gu Chenjin: “...”
After being reborn, Yu Weiwei finally understands that Gu Chenjin had long since grown tired of her. His terminal illness was just an excuse.
When she wakes up, she also gets a System: [Study to Cure Illnesses System]
Her biological mother, taking her white-lotus older sister’s word for it, punishes Yu Weiwei by making her work at the family’s private hospital.
Hoping to cure her own terminal illness, Yu Weiwei goes to the hospital with her books.
Not long after, media reports that group presidents diagnosed with liver cancer, lung cancer, stomach cancer, and other illnesses, along with wealthy wives, have all recovered after visiting the Yu family hospital and meeting an “utterly ordinary little nurse.”
Meanwhile, the perfectly healthy Gu Chenjin from his previous life is cursed by Yu Weiwei and diagnosed with brain cancer.
Lying in his hospital bed, Gu Chenjin recalls his memories of his previous life and looks at the “lucky little nurse” who has come to give him an injection.
Hesitantly, he asks, hoping to stay alive: “If I’m terminally ill, will you still love me?”
Yu Weiwei’s phone receives a message.
Gu Chenjin catches a glimpse: [Weiwei, your 2,000-square-meter library is ready. Want to come read?]
One message after another comes in, all from powerful men who have been discharged from the hospital.
Yu Weiwei plunges the needle in, looks up, and says, “Please behave yourself. I only love studying.”
What’s the point of a handsome man when studying is so much more fun?
