Ming Nanxing is the most beautiful little mermaid in the deep sea. But after transmigrating one day, she becomes the cannon-fodder supporting female character in an entertainment-industry tycoon novel, infamous for causing trouble and destined for a tragic end.
The survival System bound to her tells her that to stay alive, she must keep building her reputation. Only when more and more people like her can she change her fate as cannon fodder.
The easiest way is to stop causing trouble, get along with the male and female leads, and use the opportunity to climb the ladder.
Hearing this, Ming Nanxing unconsciously scrunches up her little nose.
"How is this causing trouble? We merfolk live in the sea, and there isn't even a swimming pool here. My skin is getting all wrinkly."
"Besides, we usually wear clothes made of mermaid silk. Look, my skin is all red."
"..."
System: "..."
System: To be honest, I have a bad feeling about this.
When Ming Nanxing joins a deserted-island survival reality show because of a contract her predecessor signed, the System, thinking at last that all her skills will come in handy, gets started:
"See that fruit? It's poisonous! Hurry and stop the male and female leads!"
"Aaaah, there's a rabbit! Catch it, catch it! We can eat it."
Ming Nanxing: "What are you talking about?"
The little mermaid Ming Nanxing doesn't quite understand. This is an island surrounded by the sea on all sides!
Key point: surrounded by the sea on all sides!
This place is paradise!
And so, viewers in the livestream see this:
The guests go fishing together. Most of them catch very little, but the fish keep leaping right into Ming Nanxing's bucket.
Viewers: Even the fish are more eager to save their grandpa than the Hulu Brothers are XD
A pack of wolves suddenly appears at night. The production crew panics, and the topic instantly goes viral. While the guests despair and livestream viewers hold their breath, Ming Nanxing only tilts her head.
Are these things really scary?
She claps her hands, grabs the lead wolf by the scruff, and tosses it away in full view of everyone.
Viewers, guests, production crew, and wolves: ...That just shook my entire family!!!
#What are you saying to the ruler of the deep sea?#
#I'm the boss in the sea!#
#You know my tail slap could kill you, right?#
Bonus scene:
After finding out his wife is a mermaid, Liang Jizhou is full of anticipation. He's heard that mermaids' singing can bewitch people, so after begging endlessly, he finally gets a song as a special treat.
But the moment Ming Nanxing opens her mouth, Liang Jizhou is petrified.
Liang Jizhou: "..."
#I've heard mermaids' voices can enchant people, but I've never heard that they can sing off-key#
#That was great. Please don't sing again#
A little reading tip:
1. The female lead transmigrates, and she's a mermaid on the other side too.
2. The female lead is a little spoiled, but she's genuinely powerful. Think violent sweetheart.
Theme: Rely on yourself for everything
