The Background Character Doesn't Need to Conquer Anyone [Dating Show]

Just for This is a brand-new dating reality show this year. One of its female contestants is an ordinary woman from an ordinary family, with little to recommend her in any way. Yet she is paired with six male contestants from prestigious families, each breathtakingly handsome and physically stunning, and all outstanding in character and talent.

Before the show began, plenty of netizens gleefully predicted that none of the six men would be interested in the ordinary female contestant. If she had any sense, she wouldn't throw herself at them and fantasize about marrying up. But if she didn't know her place, then those netizens would get to watch her make a fool of herself by chasing after men who were out of her league.

Pei Jinzhao was that female contestant, and she knew her place. She had been born into this world from another, and the character she had become was a nameless background extra in the original story.

She had no idea why a dating show like this had approached her. When she accepted the show's seven-figure payment, she had no idea they would pair her with six male contestants.

A seven-figure payment... Six men? Fine by her.

Pei Jinzhao decided she would be an excellent background extra on the show, too. It was probably meant to showcase the charms of those six men, so she would just quietly stay out of the way.

Filming began, and things were more or less as Pei Jinzhao had expected. The six male contestants were all polite to her, but kept their distance, cool and aloof.

Pei Jinzhao was perfectly happy with things as they were. At this rate, she could sit back and collect an astronomical fee.

That was how Pei Jinzhao saw the show. But to the viewers, it looked like this:

[? Did I see that right? The arrogant, cold Number One contestant blushed all the way up his neck just because Pei Jinzhao glanced his way, then chickened out of sitting next to her and moved over there instead?]

[I've been watching for days, but I'm still shocked. Isn't Number Two famous in his circle as a playboy? Why is he secretly making breakfast for Pei Jinzhao, then hiding to watch her reaction without letting her know? Did he get handed the wrong romance script?]

[...] I honestly can't with these men. They're too shy to get close to Pei Jinzhao, but they still can't sit still. They're afraid someone else will steal her, so they try every trick in the book to seduce her... I'm talking about you, Number Three. You're supposed to be aloof and refined, right? So why is your collar open that wide? And why did you get up and bend over to pour Pei Jinzhao some water, deliberately showing off those gorgeous collarbones, abs, and V-line?]

Reader's guide:

The male lead is split into multiple versions; one-on-one ending.
