This Background Beta Is Done Playing Along

Yu Mian was just complaining about soft Omegas pretending to be Alphas and women pretending to be men being basically the same thing, when she transmigrated. She transmigrated into the ABO CEO romance novel she'd been complaining about. She became an unnamed Beta who appeared for less than two pages and wasn't even given a name. Throughout the novel, she was referred to as "Qi Zhen's deskmate," "that quiet deskmate of Qi Zhen's," and "She's Qi Zhen's deskmate, you know." Yu Mian: ...I'm not even a cannon-fodder female supporting character. Why did I transmigrate here? So I can live out my dream of doing absolutely nothing? - Later, Yu Mian discovered what her role was. She was the crucial brick supporting the bridge between the male and female leads :) When the heroine had a fever, she brought her medicine. When the hero got jealous, she helped them make up. Even after college, when she applied for jobs, the offer she got was from the hero's family's company. What the heck? Can you two AO lovers not function independently? - After finishing her final quarterly work report, Yu Mian happily took her resignation papers and left the company without looking back. Goodbye, fellow wage slaves. Starting today, she's her own boss! With a decent amount of savings, Yu Mian opened a countryside bed-and-breakfast. She spent her days making coffee and playing with cats, enjoying the easy life. "Yu Mian, you really made me work to find you..." A familiar voice sounded beside her. Her hand shook, ruining today's latte art. She must have imagined it. How could her former jerk of a boss and onetime idiot deskmate show up in a place like this? "Mian Mian, surprise!" A cheerful woman's voice followed right after, startling Yu Mian into gulping down the hot coffee in her hand. So bitter! But still not as bitter as her life. She's just a background Beta. You two AO demigods, can you let go of the arms you're wrapped around her with?! [Warnings] 1. The original novel's heroine will not be vilified. 2. The male lead and the original novel's heroine have no romance. If anything, they might as well be rivals in love. 3. The male lead is a hopeless romantic. He really would do something stupid like stand in the pouring rain to bathe for love, so don't blame him. 4. This is BG, not GB, and an AB story. It's a slice-of-life novel, with a few school and variety-show storylines mixed in~ 5. The author can't write men, so don't blame me if the writing is trash. I'm fragile ^^ I'm a wage slave, and I'll try to update four or five chapters a week. Anything more is up to chance. Below is the blurb for the upcoming novel The Witch's Floating Inn: Blurb 4 After transmigrating, witch Wen Ying got an absolutely disastrous start in her new world, becoming a girl with nothing: no powers, no spirit companion, and no money. Her total assets came to the astonishing sum of three digits, while her bank loan balance had fewer than seven zeroes. When Wen Ying learned that even the cheapest nutrient solution cost two digits: ... She'd taken out a loan and sunk her money into this place. She'd died and come back to life, so there was no way she could just give up. Wen Ying had no choice but to work hard to get this little shop, which was about to go under before it even opened, up and running. First, add some flowers and greenery to the shabby inn. Then make some delicious, fragrant food, create a warm and peaceful atmosphere, and finally lure in a greedy spirit companion to serve as her free promotional model. Perfect! - The inn became a huge hit across the internet. It wasn't until other customers pointed it out that Wen Ying, who had been so focused on running the place that she'd ignored the outside world, realized that many of her regulars were faces ordinary people could only see on the Star Network. The Empire's recently retired marshal, the son of a wealthy family from the neighboring capital planet, a top-tier star and major movie star... Wen Ying looked them up one by one and was nearly scared into eating two extra bowls of rice by their impressive titles. Fans who came to see the big shots in person would find them sitting quietly off to the side, waiting for Wen Ying to finish cooking. Meanwhile, their spirit companions were acting completely out of character, having forgotten all about their owners and gathering around Wen Ying's feet to show off and fawn on her. Leading the pack was a big white fox. Relying on its overflowing mental power, it defeated all the other spirit companions and climbed onto Wen Ying's shoulder, rubbing its face affectionately against hers. Yet this white-furred fox would act cute for Wen Ying one moment, then smack away every other spirit companion trying to cuddle up to her the next. It would turn right back around and whine and beg Wen Ying for comfort, just as domineering as its owner. Everyone: ...Have you no shame? - Others were baffled. What kind of magic did this place have, to make countless big shots throw away their dignity and fight one another for it? The big shots who knew how remarkable Wen Ying was all kept quiet. If they told anyone, a bunch of other people would come and compete with them. If word got out, would there even be any room left for them at the inn? It was rumored that the Empire's prime minister had begun to suffer from declining mental power and was no longer able to summon his spirit companion. Yet recently, he appeared on the news with his spirit companion for the first time, full of energy and dominating the scene, showing no signs of mental decline. Someone noticed the prime minister's spirit companion, a snow fox with gleaming white fur. It looked exactly like the one cuddling in Wen Ying's arms! Theme: Love life, love yourself.
