The night before Qin Shuyao is brought back to the Qin family, she dreams that she's the real heiress in a story about a real and a fake heiress. After returning home, she won't receive the love she deserves. Instead, she'll be kicked out.
She finds the story's mind-numbing plot ridiculous, when suddenly she hears a chime:
"Hello, Host. I'm the Gossip System 001. Starting today, I'll bring you plenty of juicy gossip. Make sure to enjoy it while it's fresh!"
But the System has a bug, and the people around Qin Shuyao can hear her thoughts.
At a banquet,
one of the fake heiress's rich suitors walks up to Qin Shuyao to pick a fight.
"Stay away from her! How can a piece of trash like you be her sister?"
[Wow, he's got some nerve! He's just one of the fish in her little pond, and not even a big one.]
[She's got a whole pond full of fish! Looks like five or six of them are here.]
Rich suitor: ???
The fake heiress, who has just walked over: "Brother, you believe me, don't you?"
Another man looks displeased: "Who are you calling brother?"
Qin Shuyao: Oh ho! A playboy's love-triangle meltdown! I love it!
On the set, Qin Shuyao sees the screenwriter walking toward her and gossips with 001.
[He's slept with more celebrities than my grandpa has eaten grains of salt! So gross!]
[Huh? Really? So he's impotent! I shouldn't have assumed otherwise. Sorry!]
The screenwriter, who had come to cut Qin Shuyao's scenes: ...
He spends the whole night giving all the fake heiress's scenes to Qin Shuyao instead.
Later, everyone connected to the fake heiress comes to curry favor with Qin Shuyao.
Qin's mother: Shuyao, I bought you the newest season's clothes and bags.
Her brother: Sign here. These are your shares in the company.
A suitor: Can I join your sister's pond?
Qin Shuyao: Stop bothering me while I'm enjoying the gossip! Let me eat it all up!

At a certain banquet, Luo Xiaoye sits in a corner with a cool expression, and no one dares approach him. But he can't get any peace and quiet.
[Handsome guys, get together! Handsome guys, get married! Handsome guys...]
[Really? That man actually has enough kids to make up a whole soccer team! What a man!]
Luo Xiaoye wakes up in the middle of the night: Wait, why did you stop complimenting me? And who is that man?
Theme: Hold on to your independent thinking.
