How Could She Be a Sacrificial Extra?

Hua Nianhuan is a spoiled young heiress whom everyone thinks has no heart.

Until she discovers that every night, just after midnight, a girl appears in her bed like clockwork.

Beautiful as a bewitching spirit, graceful and alluring, the girl wears a half-mask each time she appears, then vanishes the next morning without a trace.

The spoiled heiress's heart grows back, only for the mysterious girl to steal it away. Hua Nianhuan tutors her and scours the whole city for delicious food, all for the sake of seeing her smile.

But one day, the girl she treasures so dearly suddenly disappears.

Hua Nianhuan can't find her.

Love-struck and sick with longing, Hua Nianhuan searches everywhere for the missing girl, eyeing everyone with suspicion.

Until she catches Ning Zhi, her former fiancee, whom she had been engaged to for years before her disgust led to their engagement being called off.

At a masquerade ball, Hua Nianhuan corners the masked girl, grabs her wrist, and pulls her into a secluded, shadowy corner. "Caught you."

When the mask comes off, Ning Zhi, the former fiancee who used to indulge Hua Nianhuan in everything, smiles, her face blooming with the colors of spring and summer. "Young miss, aren't I supposed to be a cannon-fodder character?"

Hua Nianhuan holds her tight, the corners of her eyes turning red.

"You're not."

She truly regrets letting her precious jewel slip through her fingers. This time, she won't let her go again.

From then on, the young heiress becomes a shameless wife-showoff.
