Blurb

Someone once described He Yanjun as empty-headed, just a pretty ornament. But even a pretty ornament has its merits: at least it's beautiful.

But He Yanjun didn't think her beauty was a good thing. At least, she didn't think so before she turned eighteen.

Until that moment... In the dim light of a bar, a woman's cold fingers lifted her chin. Sticky liquor ran down her face, and in the dazzling lights, she saw those gentle yet icy eyes.

"Come with me?"

She thought she'd escaped a dead end. After granting her nothing but beauty, Heaven had finally given her something else: "love."

But she'd forgotten: when had Heaven ever blessed her?

"Yes, that's right. I'm engaged, but what does that have to do with you?"

When Lin Yuechu said this, she was still on the phone with her fiance. He fell silent on the other end, and He Yanjun fell silent too.

In truth, she should have known that the moment she signed that contract, her love had stopped being "love." She'd only been fooling herself into believing it was.

Indeed, no one else thought it was love either.

So one rainy night, she left without a word.

Lin Yuechu seemed completely unconcerned by the canary's departure. But as time went by, the feelings she'd thought would fade grew richer, like a fine wine aging in a jar.

Every rainy night, she thought of... that one person.

Blurb for the next book

Wu An died on the day she was supposed to marry her fiance. Her family's company went bankrupt and entered liquidation, and her parents were thrown in jail. Overnight, she went from a wealthy young woman with every comfort to a debt-ridden pariah everyone despised.

She fled everywhere like a rat in the street, but the debt collectors cornered her, and in the end, she jumped to her death.

When she opened her eyes again, she was seventeen, and had a nasty little System to go with her second chance.

"What? You're saying I'm the wicked female supporting character? The male lead never planned to marry me; he was supposed to marry the heroine?"

"The male lead is the one who ruined my family, and I'm just a foolish tool who hands over money to advance the relationship between the leads?"

"The heroine is Rong Simiao, who's inferior to me in every way?"

All these world-shattering revelations came flooding in. The thing that bothered her most was that Rong Simiao was the heroine of this world.

"She's the heroine of this world, Host. Sorry, but you've got the blood-bag supporting-character script. Please follow your predetermined life path."

"Why should I? Those two jerks..."

Before Wu An could finish, a powerful electric shock surged through her, leaving her collapsed on the floor.

"Host, please follow the plot!"

"You!"

After three minutes of convulsing from the shocks, Wu An accepted her fate. Her career as a wicked female supporting character officially began.

[Scene: The male lead's birthday, and the heroine brings him a homemade lunch]

"What kind of trash is this? Aren't you embarrassed? Let me throw it out for you."

Wu An grabbed an expensive freebie she'd found lying around and handed it to the male lead as a gift. Looking down at Rong Simiao, she got exactly what she wanted: the girl's expression darkened.

Then she snatched away the heroine's lovingly prepared lunch.

[Wicked female supporting character, excellent work! Throw away the heroine's lovingly prepared lunch!]

Wu An looked at the lunch, its aroma wafting up from her hands. Remembering the days in her previous life when she'd hidden from place to place, never knowing when she'd eat next, she reproached the System.

"You don't know the value of every grain of rice until you've earned one yourself!"

So she happily ate the lunch she'd called trash, then made four or five trips to the bathroom that afternoon.

"Are you feeling sick?"

She couldn't afford to look weak in front of her enemy!

Under the heroine's concerned gaze and kind question, Wu An gritted her teeth and pretended nothing was wrong.

"Not at all. Cough, cough... Has your kitchen gone a long time without being cleaned?"

[Scene Two: The heroine's birthday, and the male lead's heartfelt confession]

Wu An kicked open the private room door, interrupting the intimate confession between the heroine and the male lead.

The System instantly played a stirring battle anthem in her mind.

[Host, say the line!]

"I'm here to join you two!"

The room fell silent. The System crashed, making a series of beeping sounds.

[Wicked female supporting character, didn't we practice this?]

An itching electric shock ran through her. Wu An quickly put on a domineering expression and delivered the wicked female supporting character's signature line.

"Big brother, didn't you say you wanted to be with me?"

[Good. Now give the heroine a disdainful look.]

Wu An looked up and met Rong Simiao's perfectly composed gaze. She knew she was in trouble.

The next second, the girl said softly, "How about I be with you instead?"

The male lead standing nearby was stunned. How had this love triangle gone completely off-script?
