The Green Tea Girl Went Viral After Playing It Cool on a Dating Show

The blurbs for the upcoming novels "Going Back to the 1990s to Take the Tsinghua Exam with Mom" and "The Beauty Streamer After Her Beauty Filter Breaks" are at the very bottom. An Zheng transmigrates into a book, becoming a supporting female character with the same name in an entertainment-industry novel. As the female lead's foil, she is outrageously scheming, practically radiating fake sweetness. After laughing and fooling around with a married male celebrity on a variety show, she gets mercilessly roasted. Her company orders An Zheng to livestream an apology. So she faces the camera with tears in her eyes, begging everyone to forgive her. The comments don't accept her apology. Why didn't she think this would happen before she started flirting with him? Just as everyone continues tearing into her, An Zheng pauses, wipes away her tears, and changes her expression. "Apologize? Me? Why should I? It takes two to tango. Why aren't you blaming the guy? Make him apologize first, then we'll talk." After saying that, she ends the stream. Viewers: ??? Viewers after thinking it over: She's got a point! A week after the livestream, An Zheng joins the male and female leads on the same dating show as a supporting character. As the supporting female character, she's supposed to snatch everything the female lead wants. Getting called a scheming green tea is her duty. But An Zheng refuses. What's the point of acting like a green tea? Isn't it exhausting? The show asks the female contestants to choose male contestants for dates. They all have their own agendas and want to pick first. An Zheng: I'll take whoever's left. On the show, the female contestants all show off their domestic skills, hoping the guys they like will fall for them too. An Zheng: In nature, males attract females. I think the male contestants should figure out how to win me over. Viewers: Is this really An Zheng? Where's the green-tea guide to seducing men I wanted to watch!? With An Zheng single-handedly turning a dating show into a contest between the men, she becomes an overnight sensation. An Zheng: What just happened? -- Going Back to the 1990s to Take the Tsinghua Exam with Mom -- Wen Xi is 27 and about to graduate with a PhD from a top university. While home for the holidays, she chats with her mother and learns that her mother had been an excellent student who wanted to attend Tsinghua University. But her family chose to pay for her younger brother's university education instead, even though his grades were just as good. Her mother sighs. "That's why seeing you achieve so much makes me happy." But Wen Xi isn't happy. Wen Xi falls asleep pressed against her mother. When she opens her eyes the next day, she's in an unfamiliar room. On the desk is a Longteng High School uniform. - Wen Xi puts on the uniform and heads to Longteng High School to register. As she walks into the classroom, she immediately spots a familiar face. Her mother looks just like she did in the old photo albums, only even more vibrant. The homeroom teacher introduces her to the class. "This is Wen Xi, our new transfer student. Wen Xi, go sit next to Lin Ye." Wen Xi walks over to her mother, then suddenly realizes that this person isn't her mother yet. She's just Lin Ye. - Lin Ye smiles, her eyes curving into crescents, and greets the new transfer student. "Hi! I'm Lin Ye. What school did you go to before? Are your grades good? Why did you transfer?" Wen Xi: "..." Mom, why are you so curious about a stranger! The boy behind Lin Ye tugs at her braid. "Hey, give me back the novel I lent you." "Tch." Lin Ye brushes his hand away, takes a copy of The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng from her desk, and hands it over. The boy asks, "Want to go see a movie this weekend? My treat." Lin Ye nods eagerly. "Sure, sure!" Wen Xi: ??? Mom! What happened to taking the Tsinghua exam? Why are you reading novels? Why are you going to the movies? And that guy obviously likes you! Stay away from him, aaah! #Overcoming Every Obstacle to Attend Tsinghua with Mom# -- The Beauty Streamer After Her Beauty Filter Breaks -- Yu Xingxing is known by her fans as Lemon TV's one and only fairy. But she knows she's no fairy. She's just using an over-the-top beauty filter. With the filter on, she wouldn't say she looks nothing like herself. She'd say she has absolutely no resemblance to the real her. Of course, she's not ugly. She just doesn't have that ethereal look. As a fairy, she doesn't have to do anything but smile at the camera. Every night, wealthy viewers shower her with tens of thousands, and the comments are full of [Fairy] [A star really did fall from the sky] [She's so ethereal, I love her so much]. Every day, Yu Xingxing starts her livestream feeling like she's going to a funeral. She's about to burst from keeping it all in. One day, Lemon TV glitches. As she turns to grab something, her beauty filter drops for two seconds-- [Who are you??] [!? Where's the enormous fairy I had!?] [The top donor has gone speechless] Yu Xingxing stares at the comments, stunned. Then a line of text suddenly appears before her eyes: [Congratulations, Host, you have been bound to the Bit System. Please complete your first task: collect one thousand characters of "ha"] ? Isn't that exactly what she's good at? She's wanted to mess around for ages! From then on, not a single "fairy" can be found in Yu Xingxing's livestream chat. Instead, it fills with comments like: [Hahahahahaha, I love watching funny beauties. Xingxing turns into a gorilla] [The streamer has gone crazy, and now I'm laughing like crazy too hahahahaha] [666666 What makeup skills! She could easily make a living with her talent, but she'd rather fool around] One day, Yu Xingxing is in the middle of a livestream call. She has on special-effects makeup inspired by Ju-on and is dancing to a girl group's song when she gets connected to a popular science blogger known for his cool demeanor and expertise. His topic: mental illness. Just as Yu Xingxing freezes up, afraid the doctor will take her away for research, the man suddenly stands up, adjusts his glasses, and starts dancing along to the music Yu Xingxing is playing. Yu Xingxing: ??? Viewers: ??? *Special-effects makeup artist x psychiatrist *Two goofballs, with messing around as the main event and romance on the side Theme: A wonderful life
