Shen You transmigrates into a novel set in the entertainment industry as its wicked female supporting character, who has done countless bad things in her life.
Taking advantage of her family's money, she routinely mocks the impoverished second male lead; she gives the wealthy third male lead terrible advice, making him lose it at his illegitimate younger brother's birthday banquet and nearly get thrown out by his family; and, to get close to the male lead, she snatches film and television roles from the female lead so she can act opposite him.
Every day, she's either harming someone or on her way to do so. In the end, her family goes bankrupt, and she goes from a phoenix to a barnyard chicken, meeting a fate that everyone applauds.
Shen You reads the plot and finds it more and more familiar. Only when she sees the main characters with her own eyes does she realize that she transmigrated into this book four years ago.
So the wicked female supporting character isn't some NPC. It's her!! Now she's reaping what she sowed, and is about to get face-slapped again and again.
Sure enough, on the night the dating show announced its four celebrity couples, her social media account was thoroughly attacked.
[Well, if it isn't Miss Shen, who looked down on everyone back then? You didn't expect this to happen when you bullied people, did you?]
[She was begging on the streets of Manhattan just a month ago, and now she's on a domestic dating show? The entertainment industry is doomed.]
Shen You has already decided to lie flat and wait for the main characters to come and give her a brutal face-slapping. But the way they do it is somewhat unexpected.
On the day she sets off for the show, she's standing by the road trying to hail a taxi when a luxury car suddenly pulls up in front of her.
The proud Mercedes-Benz owner gives her a scornful look. "Get in."
Shen You climbs into the car, her heart pounding. The person beside her tosses her a key. "I can't believe someone is so poor they can't even afford a car. Here, take it."
Shen You: ???
On the first night of filming, the production team announces that whoever guesses which dinner dish is the most expensive gets first pick of a room. The guy beside her points to the dish on the left and orders Shen You, "You answer. That one. Hurry up!"
Shen You braces herself to be tricked, but it isn't until she moves into the most luxurious sea-view room that she believes he really wasn't lying.
For the first episode, to help everyone get acquainted quickly, the director brings out four scripts and has them split into groups to shoot short videos. The award-winning actor, who has always disliked romance stories, unexpectedly picks a youth campus drama.
The director asks who he'd like as his partner. His gaze turns to Shen You, the only one who hasn't said anything.
[The plot is taking a strange turn. I'm not sure. Let me take another look.]
[If this isn't scripted, I'll eat shit while standing on my head!]
A month later:
[Get me one in chocolate flavor.]
