Also known as: The Substitute Supporting Female Lead Turns to Green Tea, The Supporting Female Lead Makes a Fortune by Being a Substitute
Yin Wan transmigrated into a book one day, becoming the half-sister of the heroine in a cultivation novel.
The original owner was favored by her sect because she looked just like the heroine. But after the heroine returned, she was cruelly abandoned, eventually turning evil and falling into demonic cultivation, with a tragic end.
Yin Wan had planned to stay out of the plot, but after transmigrating, she had already joined the sect and couldn't back out.
So she changed her plans: she mooched off her sect every day to cultivate, and, on the side, pampered her cat master without a care in the world.
Turning evil was out of the question. Catching feelings was nothing compared to petting a cat.
Later, someone told her: Stop petting him, or the Grandmaster will go bald.
Yin Wan: ???
Yin Wan: I picked up a giant cat and pet him every day. Now he's turned out to be the Grandmaster himself. What should I do? Please reply quickly, this is urgent!
Ming Lan: The old man? Would you like me to prove whether I'm really old?
Yin Wan: :)
A story about how you all treated me like a substitute, while I treated you all like suckers, and how I accidentally became your Grandmaster's wife in the end.
The gentle and refined master silently wiped the blood from his lips, then turned and smiled at Yin Wan. "Take this Demon-Subduing Bell. It will protect you."
Yin Wan accepted it with a smile, thinking: Sucker number one.
The aloof sect leader was as far beyond reach as an immortal in the heavens, yet he bent down for Yin Wan, giving her spirit pills and magical treasures that everyone envied.
Yin Wan accepted them with a smile, thinking: Sucker number two.
The genius senior brother passed half his cultivation to Yin Wan without a second thought. His hair turned white overnight, but he still said tenderly, "As long as you're safe."
Yin Wan accepted with a smile, thinking: Sucker number three.
Her cat master, Ming Lan, watched all this in silence, then finally said, "I can raise your cultivation by a thousand years."
Yin Wan could barely keep the smug smile off her face. "Thank you, Ma..."
Ming Lan raised an eyebrow, smiling faintly. "If you accept my gift, you'll have to repay me."
Yin Wan: :) H-How do I repay you?
