The Beloved Female Side Character Has Gone OOC Again

Lin Qingyun is bound to a Supporting Female Character System. She follows the plot as the System requires, earns points, and saves up to go home. She diligently follows the storyline, but the looks the male and female leads give her grow stranger and stranger.

The female lead shares her secrets with her and affectionately calls her Qingqing.

The male lead draws ever closer, laying everything he has before her, asking only that she look at him a little more.

The supporting male lead goes even further, resorting to every trick and competing with the male lead for her. Are they fighting over her?

[Her tenderness is a poisoned wine they can never drink their fill of]

World 1: The Cannon-Fodder Supporting Female Character in a Period Novel

Lin Qingyun is the foil to the female lead in a period novel. The female lead is strong and self-reliant, reaching the pinnacle of life through her own efforts. Lin Qingyun, by contrast, is fragile and timid, and can only depend on others to get by.

Following her character setting, she clings to the male lead, an educated youth sent to the countryside. He is supposed to look down on her, yet be forced to stay with her, despising her in every way. When he discovers that the Lin family does not care about her at all, he is supposed to abandon her without mercy and return to the city hand in hand with the female lead.

But Lin Qingyun looks at the man in front of her, tending to her wounds with tenderness in his eyes and wanting to take her away, utterly confused.

Is this really the male lead?

World 2: The Delicate Scholar in a Matriarchal Novel

Lin Qingyun is a delicate scholar who does not fit the popular ideal of beauty in a matriarchal novel. One day, an imperial decree orders her to marry the male lead, a powerful chancellor. The two are each absorbed in their own thoughts.

The male lead's heart belongs to the most esteemed princess, while Lin Qingyun covets the supporting male lead, a prince of a different surname. She uses every means at her disposal to entangle herself with him, until he can take no more and sends her to her death with a cup of poison.

By rights, this should be how Lin Qingyun's story ends. Unexpectedly, after she advances on him step by step, the supporting male lead buries his face against her shoulder and neck, his ears flushed red and his eyes brimming with desire. "Qingqing, stop bullying me."

After she comes home smelling of wine, the male lead gazes at her pitifully. "Wife, am I not enough for you? Could you please stop going to see other people?"

World 3: The Cannon-Fodder Stepsister in a Novel About the Real and Fake Young Masters

Lin Qingyun transmigrates into a vicious supporting female character in an old-fashioned school novel. Her mission is not to frame the sunny female lead, but to fulfill the original story's setup: act like a child who has not yet been weaned, following her nominal older brother around all day. Once his identity as the fake young master is exposed, she is supposed to turn her back on him for being poor and cling to the real young master from the slums.

She goes through the preliminary tasks halfheartedly. After all, in the original novel, the fake young master only maintains a fake sibling bond with her. So why is he becoming more and more accommodating of her unreasonable behavior, and why does he look at her more and more strangely?

The real young master, Shen Que, grew up in the slums, surrounded by filthy, squalid conditions. At home, he has a mother who flies into a frenzy now and then, and a father who gambles, gets drunk, and beats the family.

He once thought he would rot in that filthy, sordid mire, until he met a bright moon. It hung high in the sky, its light falling entirely on the heaven-blessed young master, never again willing to spare a single ray for anyone else.

But for one brief moment, a few rays of pure moonlight fell upon him, stirring feelings he should never have had.

Mud and moonlight are worlds apart. Just as Shen Que's heart was about to die, he unexpectedly learned the secret of what had happened eighteen years ago. It turned out that he was the one who should have held the bright moon in his arms.
