I Became the Sweet, Soft-Spoken Female Supporting Character and Gave Up

Zhao Ci was given an urgent mission: enter a campus romance novel and help the supporting female character complete her plotline. The character was a delicate, soft-hearted romantic who had an unrequited crush on the male lead.

After entering the book, Zhao Ci's daily routine was to shower the male lead with affection in every possible way until she was numb to it.

She brought him homemade heart-shaped cookies and watched him stomp them to pieces and toss them into the river.

She wrote him a love letter, which he read aloud in front of the entire class before setting it on fire with a lighter.

And so on: no dignity, no rights whatsoever!

To hit her performance targets by the end of the year, Zhao Ci could only stay calm and keep slacking off.

Lu Jingyang recently developed a superpower: he could hear other people's thoughts, though the ability seemed to work only on Zhao Ci.

When Song Xuyan humiliated her, she said aloud, "I'm sorry, Brother Xuyan. I made you angry. It's my fault."

But what he heard was: "You scumbag, watch your foul mouth. You're going straight to hell!"

When she confessed to Song Xuyan, she looked bashful. "Brother Xuyan, I've liked you for a very, very long time."

What he heard in her thoughts was: "Was I kicked in the head by a donkey to like someone as rude as you?"

Lu Jingyang gradually realized that Zhao Ci, who looked so well-behaved and sweet, wasn't well-behaved at all.

Song Xuyan felt that Zhao Ci had changed.

Before, when he rejected her in front of everyone, she would be mortified. Now she acted as if she were just going through the motions. Afterward, she neither cried nor made a fuss, staying as quiet as a mouse. On top of that, she was getting closer and closer to his childhood friend.

After careful consideration, he concluded that she must have changed her pursuit strategy and was trying to play hard to get.

Hmph, just another one of women's little tricks.

But what was he supposed to do? He seemed to fall for it.
