The Metaphysical Couch Potato Wins on a Dating Show

◇ Check out my friend's novel, I Became Famous in Entertainment with My Martial Arts Skills, by Xi Chubai // After I Married My Ex-Boyfriend's Dad, by Bie Ge

▼ Synopsis ▼

Ye Qiao, a heaven-blessed girl with a gift for the occult, transmigrates into a book.

A born couch potato, she was extraordinarily gifted in her previous life. Countless masters of the occult came out of seclusion to beg her to become their disciple, but she found it too much trouble and refused them all.

Who could have guessed that after suddenly dying and transmigrating into a book, Ye Qiao would become a disposable female character in a hugely popular dating show? She does one foolish thing after another for the male lead, ends up in a psychiatric hospital, and meets a miserable fate.

The plot has just reached the dating show's chaotic love-triangle stage.

She looks at the original character, hated by the entire internet; the white-lotus female lead; the scheming, tea-sipping second female lead; and the male lead, who spouts CEO-style catchphrases at every opportunity. It's all such a hassle that she lies flat on the spot.

A livestream by the sea:

The white-lotus female lead and the tea-sipping second female lead bring out their carefully chosen swimsuits, while their fans in the livestream argue over who looks better in one.

Only Ye Qiao refuses to show off or try to stand out. Wearing a white T-shirt and shorts, she lies on the beach and drinks coconut juice.

The domineering CEO male lead says, "Woman, don't try to get my attention."

Ye Qiao looks at the sky and smiles. "I just think it's going to rain."

Viewers: I'm dying! How could it rain on such a sunny day? Ye Qiao can't save her image, so is she trying to build a reputation as a dumb beauty who's famous for all the wrong reasons?

But then Ye Qiao picks up her beach umbrella and calmly walks away, leaving everyone else drenched to the bone.

A treasure hunt:

Viewers: What the heck, Ye Qiao guessed right a few times, and now she's too proud even to look at all those clue boxes right in front of her. She can't read fortunes, so does she really think she'll pick the box with the treasure clue on the first try?

The result:

The white-lotus female lead opens one of the boxes Ye Qiao avoided. It's empty.

The tea-sipping second female lead opens another box Ye Qiao avoided. It's empty.

The male lead, the second male lead, and the third male lead open the other boxes Ye Qiao avoided. They're empty too.

Everyone in the livestream is drenched in sweat and panting as they run around, chased by the cameraman.

Ye Qiao calmly opens a bottle of water, gathers all the clues with ease, and opens the combination lockbox containing the treasure.

Who would have thought that Ye Qiao, who planned to finish the show and take the money, would become famous after one appearance, with her livestream going viral?

A viewer clings to the leg of a god: "Um, could I ask the Great Qiao to predict my future?"

Even the female contestants, who had been trying to outshine each other on the dating show, come straight to Ye Qiao.

The white-lotus female lead inserts a straw into Ye Qiao's milk tea. "Qiaoqiao, can you tell me when my destined one will show up?"

The tea-sipping second female lead places a soft pillow behind Ye Qiao. "My dear Qiao, tell me when I'm going to get famous!"

Then the male contestants refuse to be outdone.

The male lead offers her half a watermelon, already sliced. "Woman, tell me what our future holds."

The second male lead fans her. "Little Qiaoqiao, can you catch ghosts?"

The third male lead bats his eyes flirtatiously. "A-Qiao, I'm not like the others. I want to know, have you fallen for me?"

Ye Qiao looks at the pile of things stacked around the spot where she's reclining, silently turns her back, and grows even more frustrated. "Everyone, please believe in science."
