The Bewitching Consort Transmigrates into an Entertainment Novel as the Female Side Character

Tan Ji was a lowly, impoverished fisherman's daughter who stood out among countless dazzling noble ladies with her seductive charms. Later generations of historians recorded her as a demon consort, leaving behind a highly controversial entry in the history books.

After Tan Ji died, she transmigrated into a romance novel set in the entertainment industry, as a troublemaking female supporting character.

This troublesome supporting character had been created for the sole purpose of being thoroughly face-slapped by the Mary Sue heroine.

When Tan Ji first got this script, she hissed and cursed: "I fought my way through the imperial harem, outlasted the empress, and nearly coaxed that dog emperor into dying so I could take the throne myself. And now you want me to grovel before this clueless fool and play second fiddle?"

Following the plot:

Tan Ji is a brainless, naive little flower in the entertainment industry who buys her way into starring roles and loves showing off and courting disaster. As soon as she arrives, she's supposed to sabotage the heroine's clothes out of jealousy, only to get caught and thoroughly face-slapped by her afterward. The heroine's response then wins her a huge following and the male lead's attention.

But Tan Ji merely sneers and draws back her hand, which holds the "itching powder."

Experts from the production team come to examine the clothes, only to discover that the substance on them isn't an irritant at all. It's just a freshener meant to cover up the heroine's body odor...

Following the romance plot:

The male lead and a group of handsome, wealthy supporting male characters are repeatedly disappointed in the heroine, a kind and clever working-class girl striving to get ahead.

Meanwhile, the female supporting character, who used to be affected and artificial, gradually becomes alluring and captivating.

Tan Ji says she just wants to level up. She has no interest in mooning over these pretty boys.

She casually takes the hand of a scruffy street vendor with a full beard, who often squats under an overpass to smoke, and gives him a smoldering look. "Actually... the person I truly like is just a street vendor!"

Tan Ji doesn't know that this street vendor will become the great villain who monopolizes the entire real estate, film and television, and AI industries five years from now.

Tan Ji sighs in frustration. "I just want to be a female lead who doesn't have a romance plot. Is that really so hard?"

Theme: Focus on leveling up, no romance, please.
