The day Lu Yuming found out she was the villainess in a book, the male lead broke up with her.
In a bright cafe, he sneered, "I prefer smart, mature women to someone like you who only knows how to spend money."
Lu Yuming was furious, but as a member of the Can't Even Swear Club, she couldn't get a single curse out. After holding it in for a long while, she could only ask cautiously, "I'm fine with breaking up, but can you give me your friend Chu Yao's number? I'm actually more interested in him."
She'd only said it offhandedly, hoping to save a little face.
But for some reason, lines of comments appeared before her eyes:
"Ahhh, that's wonderful! Baby sis likes Chu Yao too! Now all those sleepless nights he spends thinking about her weren't for nothing!"
"Hehe, every guy in the male lead's friend group is gorgeous. Broad shoulders, narrow waists, high noses, and every one of them is devoted to baby sis."
"Don't be sad, baby. Your good fortune is still to come~"
Lu Yuming: ?
She thought of the male lead's friends. Whenever they saw her, they just stared at her gloomily without saying a word. Did they all like her?
...But the System she'd just been bound to wouldn't let her break up with the male lead!
*
To see if the comments were telling the truth, Lu Yuming posted on her social media: Waaah, I got dumped.
One second later, one of the male lead's friends liked her post.
Ten seconds later, a second friend commented with a fireworks emoji.
Thirty seconds later, a third friend sent her a voice message.
One minute later, a fourth friend called her...
Lu Yuming: Frantically scrambling T_T
And the comments:
"Baby, run! Those guys are on their way with guns blazing!"
"Praying baby sis won't get too worn out. [Hands together/]"
"Hehehehehehehe"
Lu Yuming: Help!
*
Lu Yuming: Breathing.
The male lead's friends: What a pro.
Airheaded beauty x a pack of wolves and tigers
*Not a strong female lead. The heroine has many flaws: she's timid and cowardly, but naturally a player who likes to fool around despite being bad at it.
*Light, illogical writing. Romance-focused, written as an exercise.
*An entirely fictional setting. The plot is all made up.
*Placeholder. I'll add any content warnings here.

"Random superpower assigned: Time Reversal."
Ji Cijun wanted a perfect life.
After traveling twenty years back in time, she looked at her father, who stole chickens, pilfered dogs, and had made nothing of himself. "You're a wealthy chairman of a publicly traded company."
Then she looked at her mother, who swore constantly and had rough manners. "You're a gentle lady from a scholarly family."
Her father, who had just been lectured for fighting, and her mother, sprawled on the sofa surrounded by melon seed shells, looked at each other.
They pointed at Ji Cijun and burst out laughing.
"What kind of daydream is that, Ji Da Ya!"
Ji Cijun said nothing. Slowly, she pulled a stack of cash from her pocket...
Her parents: 😘
Baby, whatever you say, we'll do! You're the young lady with the perfect life!
From then on, bragging around the dinner table became practicing on the golf course,
and playing mahjong became attending finishing-school classes.
After a full day of classes, Ji Cijun's parents would come home and still have to memorize English vocabulary. It was exhausting, but strangely satisfying.
"Abandon... Stop running your mouth and memorize it! You'll get 100,000 when you're done!"
"Baby, Mom couldn't help swearing in front of Mrs. Lu today..."
"Sweetheart, Dad went back to the countryside to dig for wild greens today, and that rich classmate of yours saw me..."
Her parents were uneasy, as if their rich-person act was about to be exposed at any moment.
Ji Cijun raised a hand. "Don't panic."
She'd just turn back time again.
Theme: Love yourself and love life.
No no no no no, I can obviously write another chapter, but I haven't watched the drop part yet. How could I just stop it like this? It's unforgivable [crying] [crying] [crying] [crying] [crying] [crying]
This couple is the sweetest, won't the extra chapter be gone after four chapters, right? [Lie flat][Lie flat][Cry loudly]
What! There is obviously a sequel [crying] How can it be finished [crying] I don't believe it, I don't believe it, I don't believe it [picking my head]
Love to watch! I laughed like crazy when I wrote "All five pairs of slippers are mine". I am really good at making fun of you. Why is such a beautiful article so low in data?
Hey, will there be a four-person extra [Let me be healthy]
After another after another after another.
One after another, the heroine's luck in love comes one after another.
I feel like I can write a follow-up episode
It's been a while since I've read a book from beginning to end. It's not bad.
It's really beautiful. I want to watch this again!
