An International Supermodel Gets the Most Hated Script in Chinese Showbiz

Shi Nuo transmigrates into a book, becoming the universally despised nemesis of Meng Lanting, the heroine of a showbiz novel.

In the book, she relentlessly pursues Meng Lanting's fiance, Mu Junyan. He doesn't love her, so she resorts to all kinds of humiliating tactics to make him come back to her. Mu Junyan is disgusted by her, and she foolishly picks a fight with Meng Lanting, a hugely popular award-winning actress. In the end, she is disgraced and ruined.

On her first day in this world, she lies in a foul-smelling, dark rental apartment, scrolling through websites filled with insults from netizens. The most common words are "homewrecker," "bad acting," and "get out of showbiz."

Shi Nuo opens a photo. Meng Lanting, expressionless, has her arm linked with Mu Junyan's at a family banquet. The woman looks tall, poised, and commanding, while Mu Junyan seems like a background extra there to smile on cue. Shi Nuo sneers and curses the original owner for being blind.

Meng Lanting is clearly more her type.

But even if Meng Lanting is her type, Shi Nuo would rather see her as a rival and compete with her.

Meng Lanting sees Shi Nuo again at a year-end film festival red carpet. All the other celebrities are dressed to the nines, while Shi Nuo is wearing a cheap, homemade dress.

Meng Lanting sneers inwardly. She doesn't believe Shi Nuo can pull any more tricks.

Only when Shi Nuo walks toward her in front of everyone's eyes and says she's giving up the fight does Meng Lanting begin to realize that something about her has changed.

Even her gaze is sharp, brimming with ambition.

After that, Shi Nuo surprises her at every turn, thriving in showbiz and making a stunning comeback against all odds.

When Shi Nuo sits on the throne of victory, holding the award that should have been hers and looking down at her, Meng Lanting finally understands that Shi Nuo is no longer the person she used to be.

But her status and pride will never let her bow to a victor.

At the celebration banquet, someone sets her up, and she spends one passionate night with Shi Nuo at a hotel.

The next day, Meng Lanting stands before Shi Nuo, icy and composed, to negotiate terms. But Shi Nuo sits on the hotel's leather sofa, idly turning over the statuette that has struck a nerve with her.

The woman's beautiful, sharp brows lift as she gives a half-smile.

"Teacher Meng, you weren't speaking to me like this last night."

I've rewritten the blurb. I did my best...

Reader's guide:

1. Meng Lanting and Mu Junyan are together in name only. The heroine isn't interested in the male lead.

2. Neither heroine is a bad person or a good person. Both are ambitious, and both will pay back in kind.

3. Both are each other's first.

4. Thanks for reading. Feel free to stay or leave.

My next book will be Fourteen Winters. Here's the blurb:

Yu Ran walks into a cafe. The bell chimes brightly, and the drowsy owner lifts her head to look at her.

The moment their eyes meet, Yu Ran's heart skips a beat. She hasn't felt her heart pound like this in a long time. The last time was over a decade ago, during a failed, platonic romance in her youth.

Yu Ran is sure she's fallen in love at first sight with the cafe's owner.

The owner is sweet and charming, with an innocent look. When she hands Yu Ran her coffee, her ears turn red, and she keeps avoiding Yu Ran's gaze. Yu Ran finds her adorable and starts coming to the cafe every night after work.

After nearly half a month, she finally works up the courage to ask, "Could we get to know each other?"

The other woman reminds her that her name is Shen Suihui.

Yu Ran remembers her. They were in the same year in high school, but different classes. Shen Suihui wore glasses, was quiet, obedient, and reserved, and always walked with her head down.

She had always been the most inconspicuous person around. Compared to back then, she had changed so much.

Yu Ran smiles. "Then let's get to know each other all over again. I want to pursue you!"

-

Shortly before high school graduation, Shen Suihui clutches a letter in the hallway and sees Yu Ran walking toward her. She instinctively lowers her head to hide her insignificant self. The words she'd planned to say vanish from her mind, and Yu Ran passes her by.

On New Year's Day of her freshman year of college, Shen Suihui misses Yu Ran so much that she goes to her school. Yu Ran has her arms around another girl and is laughing happily.

After that, through graduation, work, unemployment, and starting a business, she and Yu Ran never cross paths.

Shen Suihui gets through fourteen winters alone.

Then, at the end of the fourteenth winter, the cafe bell rings, and she meets the eyes she had never dared hope to see again.

Yu Ran looks at her with warmth and passion and says:

"Could we get to know each other?"

"I want to pursue you."
