Jealous? I Deserve This

"Updates when inspiration strikes, but the story is guaranteed to be completed."

Lu Milang is the fifth-generation granddaughter of the richest family in City A, the Lu family's cherished darling. Spoiled as she is, she's arrogant, jealous, wrathful, timid, and greedy...

When she's upset, she'll eat eight little cakes in one sitting. She lusts after her childhood friend, but his heart is so unyielding that she's cried countless tears over him.

She's jealous of Ji Qinglin, the new transfer student at Shengying Academy. She has the look of a delicate little flower, comes from a poor family, and has to work part-time to support herself, yet somehow she still attracts the attention of Jiang Sui.

Jiang Sui, the boy she's had a crush on for thirteen years, braves a rainstorm to bring Ji Qinglin an umbrella, fights off the thugs who harass her, and gently tends to her scrapes. He stands up for her against her exploitative boss, and stays until the end of a banquet just so he can walk home with her, even though she's a server...

Jealous to the point of madness, Lu Milang becomes the ringleader in bullying Ji Qinglin. She's so cruel that even she thinks she sounds like the wicked supporting female character in a novel.

Then she comes down with a fever that won't break. After a whole night has passed, Lu Milang discovers that she really is the wicked supporting female character in an old-fashioned romance novel...

Ji Qinglin is the heroine, Jiang Sui is the hero, and Lu Milang's role is to be their foil and create opportunities for them every day.

The first thing Lu Milang can't understand after waking up is: why does Ji Qinglin run into every piece of bad luck in the world!!!

Getting into trouble over and over, just so Jiang Sui can rescue her? So their love can blossom in a crisis?

What a load of crap. Obviously Jiang Sui is the one who's bad for her!

2.

Lu Milang's high fever burned away her lovesick obsession. The first thing she did after getting out of bed was grab an umbrella and rush to Ji Qinglin.

Ji Qinglin thought Lu Milang had finally gone crazy and was going to run her over.

Instead, a slender figure stepped out of a black Maybach. In seven-inch stilettos, she carried an umbrella through the downpour and stopped in front of Ji Qinglin. With lowered eyes, she tossed aside the broken umbrella in Ji Qinglin's hand and moved her own enormous umbrella over her head.

"Ji Qinglin, will you come home with me?"

From then on, Lu Milang kept her eyes on Ji Qinglin alone. She threw the bugs she found in Ji Qinglin's schoolbag back at the culprit, and lifted weights and trained on the dumbbells every day, all so that one day she could fight the heroine's battles as fiercely as possible.

Everyone at Shengying Academy knew the Lu family's little princess had gone crazy, doing all this just so Jiang Sui would look at her.

Lu Milang: Jiang Sui??? Get lost.

[Little Scene]

In the dim alley behind a restaurant, Lu Milang rushes over and shields the novel's heroine. Using the combat skills she's been practicing, she beats a group of thugs soundly.

Jiang Sui arrives a step too late. Seeing Lu Milang there, he frowns. "Did you get someone to bully her?"

Ji Qinglin takes Lu Milang's arm and pulls it against her chest, frowning too. "Open your damn eyes! Xiaolang is the one protecting me!"

There are countless ways to change your life, but my life has only one possible ending: happy and fulfilled.

I choose it. √

[Two women healing each other: Xiaolang heals herself while also helping the original heroine heal.]

[Both female leads have their own love interests. The original novel's couple stays together.]
