Reborn as the Cannon Fodder Girl Who Was Madly in Love with the Gentle Male Second Lead

(The blurb for my new story, *Behind the Camera in a Live-Streamed Escape Game [Infinite]*, is at the end. Please add it to your favorites! =w=) Blurb: When Shi Wen was fifteen, a family upheaval plunged her life into darkness. Shen Chan helped her escape the mire and find her way back into the light. From then on, Shi Wen spent ten years hopelessly in love with Shen Chan. She always came first in her class to earn his praise; gave up the university she wanted to attend and applied to his university and his major, then worked her way to the top in a subject she wasn't good at; and, just to be closer to him, turned down a job with an annual salary of a million to become his junior assistant... Everyone around her knew how she felt about him. He knew it too, and had told her "I'm sorry" many times as a way of rejecting her. He was so gentle that Shi Wen always thought she might win his heart one day. In the tenth year, her memories awakened, and she learned that she was merely a doomed side character in a tragic romance, hopelessly in love with the gentle second male lead. She saw with her own eyes that the man who was always gentle and composed lost his head when the original heroine started crying. She also remembered that when she had been in a car accident and was near death, he had remained perfectly calm, without even a change in his breathing. In the end, she confessed her feelings and asked him to put an end to things. Just as expected, he gently turned her down and earnestly advised her that love wasn't a required part of life. At last, Shi Wen could no longer deceive herself. She let herself go, and let him go too. She handed in her resignation and found a new job with an annual salary of several million. Gradually, she became a formidable career woman admired by other women, and gradually discovered that life without Shen Chan wasn't as bad as she'd imagined. He was right. Love really wasn't a required part of life. ** Faced with Shi Wen's love, Shen Chan told himself that what he felt for her wasn't affection. He had said "I'm sorry" to her many times, hoping she would stop holding on. Eventually, she finally did as he wished and gave up. But only after Shi Wen left did he realize that he could no longer live without her. Without her, he couldn't stay calm and collected. His moods became unpredictable, his world fell into darkness, and life lost all meaning. Now he was the one who couldn't let go, doing everything he could just to make her look his way again. Reader's Guide: 1. The original heroine and hero will be portrayed negatively. They're foils for the male and female leads. Please don't read if that bothers you. QAQ 2. I'll add more if I think of anything... *Divider* Title: *Behind the Camera in a Live-Streamed Escape Game [Infinite]* Blurb: Wei Han is a follow-cam camerawoman for escape game livestreams. Her job is to enter each instance alongside the players, carrying a camera and showing the livestream audience what's happening to them in real time. The instances are so dangerous that even a ten-person camera crew struggles to film players clearing them. Wei Han goes in alone, drawing furious jeers from the players: "You're the only one on the camera crew. What made you think you could go into an instance?" "If you get left behind, you're on your own." Later, the players see that whether they're running from monsters or chasing after them, Wei Han follows along effortlessly, camera in hand. While they're fighting elite monsters, Wei Han is scaling walls and leaping across rooftops with ease. She even climbs onto an elite monster's neck to film? Elite monster: ? Players: ??
