The Villainess Slacks Off on a Dating Show

[Upcoming novel: My Convenience Store Has a Celestial Supply System. Blurb below, thank you for adding it to your collection.]

[Updates Monday through Friday; weekends off]

After being reborn, Wen Shangshang binds herself to a Matchmaker System.

System: You are the villainess in a sweet romance novel set in the entertainment industry. The male and female leads' relationship has gone off track, so we've hired you as their love-security guard to get their romance back on the right path!

Wen Shangshang: What are you babbling about? Pay me!

·

[Mission 1: Steal the female lead's audition opportunity, leaving her with no choice but to join a dating show and go on a romantic island date with the male lead.]

Unable to win the audition role, Wen Shangshang simply joined the dating show herself and suggested to the producer that they change the filming location. Their Island Romance was transformed into a Rural Romance.

So the audience watched the male and female leads wearing black rubber boots and carrying hoes as they worked together in the fields.

Wen Shangshang: Hmm... How is that not a date?

[Mission 2: While the two are giving each other the cold shoulder, deliberately speak ill of the female lead in front of the male lead. But the male lead stands up for the female lead, and she overhears them. The two reconcile. Your plan fails, and you watch them stroll together by the sea at sunset, cursing bitterly.]

Wen Shangshang pinches the female lead's arm and complains, "Your arms are too skinny. No wonder you're no good."

Then she puts the shoulder pole for carrying manure on the male lead. "Men and women working together makes the work easier. Remember to dig up those two mu of land after you finish carrying the manure."

The System goes berserk, but Wen Shangshang sits in her rocking chair, looking at the light screen in front of her and reciting her lines without expression. "You're so lucky. You got such a bargain."

The male lead, sweating profusely: ???

◎ The premise is unchanged, and it still includes farming and food.

◎ Farming comes with a golden finger.

******* My Convenience Store Has a Celestial Supply System *******

Just as Ling Xiao's convenience store is about to go out of business, she is suddenly bound to a Celestial Supply System.

The System provides her with all kinds of goods from the Three Realms, in exchange for human faith points.

As the convenience store's popularity explodes, the rumors about it become increasingly outrageous:

"At first, I thought it was an ordinary gel pen. Then I had a fever during an exam, but when I held it, my head cleared and my eyes sharpened, and I came in first!"

"Who says convenience stores only sell frozen, pre-made food? You haven't tried the food at Ling Xiao's convenience store, especially the spring bamboo shoot and duck buns and the oden. Wow..."

"I buy a cup of her floral fruit tea every day. Look at me, don't my acne marks and dark circles have disappeared? I've been feeling better lately too. It must have health benefits."

Today's System products: [South Sea Purple Bamboo Spring Shoot Buns, Food God's Handmade Oden, Flower-Fruit Tea from the Fairies of the Hundred Flowers Palace, Shennong's Potato Chips and Eight-Treasure Congee, Wenchang's Gel Pens from Seven-Tune Mountain, Moon Star Lord's Osmanthus Shampoo and Conditioner Set...]

Ling Xiao turns off the System and smiles at the customers she's specifically sought out. "Don't believe the nonsense online. We're a perfectly legitimate convenience store."

-

Ling Xiao has been a little worried lately. The System is no longer satisfied with supplying goods and has started sending over employees!

Customers have complained that the staff change too often, and that men, women, old and young all claim to be the shopkeeper's relatives.

They always proudly tell the customers, "I'm Ling Xiao's third uncle / second aunt / eldest nephew..."

At times like these, the handsome, fair-skinned cashier always makes a few sarcastic remarks.

The immortals of the Three Realms are all furious, and gang up to report him to Ling Xiao.

Every time, the fair-skinned young man turns into a small Pomeranian with horns on its head, aloofly leaps into Ling Xiao's arms, and lets her ruffle its fur to her heart's content.

Lady Houtu tries to come forward and argue, but Emperor Fengdu pulls her away to restock the shelves.

The Five Gods of Fortune, Prosperity, Longevity, Happiness, and Wealth stroke their beards and pretend not to notice, then go chat with customers and give them blessings.

The Mountain Spirit takes advantage of the chaos to sneak off and go shopping for a manicure.

Only the Matchmaker, trembling, rushes toward Ling Xiao and the two of them, holding red threads...

Ling Xiao looks with satisfaction at the thriving, harmonious scene in her store and feels deeply comforted.

-

A blessing in disguise, Ling Xiao strokes the "Pomeranian" and sighs:

A divine beast's fur really is so smooth and comfortable. It would be even better if it could grow a big tail!

The Pomeranian under Ling Xiao's gaze suddenly speaks, furious with embarrassment. "Don't even think about it!"
