“Jiang Ruoqing! There is no way I’ll ever be with you in this lifetime.”
“You’d better give up on me while you still can!!!”
So annoying!!!
What the heck is he babbling about?
Who’s barking over there anyway?
The incessant noise was giving her a splitting headache.
Jiang Ruoqing rubbed the back of her head, which was throbbing with pain. Her thick, curled lashes fluttered twice before she slowly opened her bright, crystal-clear almond-shaped eyes.
Something wasn’t right.
Didn’t I just die in a car accident?
And who is this guy standing in front of me?
He was actually pretty handsome.
Damn, look at that face…
But…
Why was he glaring at her like that?
He looked as though she had some deep, blood-feud-level grudge against him.
Before Jiang Ruoqing could figure out what was going on, a mechanical voice suddenly rang out inside her head.
Ding! My dearest host, darling~ It’s me! System 999 reporting for duty!!!
Jiang Ruoqing: “???”
A tiny little figure suddenly appeared inside her mind, leaving Jiang Ruoqing staring at it with wide eyes full of confusion.
999 cleared its throat and spoke in a solemn, businesslike tone.
Congratulations, Host! You have successfully transmigrated into the novel The Little White Flower’s Rise to Become a Winner in Life.
From now on, you must complete 100 small missions randomly assigned by the system and help the story follow its original plot. Only then can you return to your original world.
Jiang Ruoqing: “……”
She suspected she was dreaming.
But the sharp pain in the back of her head was far too real. It was enough to remind her that she was wide awake.
It took her only a few seconds to accept this utterly ridiculous situation.
Then, with sparkling eyes, she asked excitedly:
Wow!Am I the female lead?
999 gave an awkward little laugh.
No! The host is actually the vicious supporting female character in this novel~
Jiang Ruoqing: @#￥…***#…%$
999: Darling, you can’t curse at the system. I can hear you!!!
Jiang Ruoqing: Oh. I wasn’t cursing. You must have heard wrong.
But…
Didn’t I die in a car accident?
Do I even need to go back?
By the time she completed all the missions and returned, her coffin might already have rotted away.
So what exactly was she supposed to do?
Come back as a skeleton crawling out of the ground?
Wouldn’t that scare everyone to death?
The thought of her flesh being eaten away by worms until nothing was left but rotten, stinking remains made Jiang Ruoqing shudder.
The man standing over her looked down at her with obvious disdain and frowned.
He had no idea what kind of nonsense she was up to now, sitting on the floor and making all sorts of strange expressions.
Just as Jiang Ruoqing finished thinking about it, 999 answered seriously:
The system has detected that the host isn’t completely dead yet. Your body is currently lying in the intensive care unit.
Jiang Ruoqing: “……”
So I’m dead… but not completely dead.
An ICU stay was incredibly expensive!
She had no idea how long the money she’d worked so hard to earn would last.
What if she ran out of money?
Would the hospital just pull the plug on her?
999 chimed in very naturally:
That’s why the host needs to complete the missions as soon as possible and return! Then no one will pull out your oxygen tube~
After saying that, 999 dutifully gave Jiang Ruoqing a general overview of the novel’s plot.
The female lead, Xia Bairan, was a textbook little white flower. She was especially good at acting delicate and helpless.
Early in the story, she appeared on a variety show and gained a huge number of fans. Her popularity in the entertainment industry skyrocketed, and she consequently met the male lead, Xie Jinghuai, the current Best Actor.
The male lead fell in love with her at first sight, and from that moment onward, he embarked on his never-ending pursuit of her.
The novel also had a second male lead who was actually the villain, Yu Ci.
Whenever he was unhappy, he had no problem taking someone’s life.
Yet for Xia Bairan, he was willing to give up his own life without hesitation…
He regarded the female lead as his white moonlight, while she mostly treated him as a tool to use.
And the original Jiang Ruoqing?
She was famous for being useless at everything she did and incapable of getting anything right.
Aside from having a beautiful face, she had absolutely nothing going for her.
She was also a hopeless, terminally lovesick fool!!!
She did nothing productive all day and simply revolved around Xie Jinghuai.
In order to stop Xie Jinghuai from getting together with Xia Bairan, she went out of her way to commit one bad deed after another…
And in the end, just like the ridiculously cliché plots in those television dramas, the male lead and female lead lived happily ever after.
As for the vicious supporting female character…
She died horribly!!!
As 999 explained the plot, more and more memories that didn’t originally belong to Jiang Ruoqing flooded into her mind.
After listening to everything, Jiang Ruoqing immediately turned around, intending to leave.
But the moment she turned her head, she realized something.
She had absolutely no idea where she was supposed to go.
Wasn’t she just a stepping stone on someone else’s road to success?!
She would commit one terrible deed after another, help the male and female leads end up together, and then lose her own life in the process.
Heavens above! Earth below!!!
What on earth did Jiang Ruoqing do to deserve this?!
Back in her original world, she had fought tooth and nail to climb her way up from being an insignificant extra.
After years of hard work, she had finally become a major celebrity and was finally starting to enjoy a good life.
She hadn’t even been a celebrity for very long when she got caught in a massive pileup on an expressway…
And somehow ended up inside a novel.
Not just any novel, either.
A novel this ridiculously cliché!!!
Fine, she had transmigrated into a book.
But couldn’t they at least have given her a better role?!
If she couldn’t be the female lead, couldn’t she at least be a decent person who could live out her life peacefully in the novel?
She, Jiang Ruoqing, had spent her whole life doing good deeds…
Forget it.
What good had doing good deeds ever done her?
Look where she’d ended up.
All right, Host Baby~ Let’s get started!!!
999 rubbed its tiny hands together excitedly, practically unable to wait.
Jiang Ruoqing, however, only wanted to lie down and do absolutely nothing.
She felt like she needed some time to process everything.
She had just been hit by a car and nearly died.
She really didn’t want to die again so soon.
Little Nine, can I refuse?
I’m already lying in the ICU back in my world, barely clinging to life anyway. Why don’t you just let me die here?
999 screamed at the top of its little lungs:
NO!!!
If the host refuses to properly complete the missions, you’ll receive some very, very terrifying punishments
If the host refused to complete the missions, then poor 999’s entire life would probably amount to nothing.
Sob, sob…
Jiang Ruoqing remained expressionless.
Oh. How scary. Will I die?
She was going to die eventually anyway.
She might as well get it over with sooner.
999 immediately became serious.
If the host fails to complete the assigned mission within twenty-four hours, your heart will experience excruciating spasms until you pass out. Trust me, it’ll be even more painful than dying.
Jiang Ruoqing smiled.
Then I’ll just die first.
999 stretched out its little hand in a desperate attempt to stop her.
Don’t!!!
Once the host successfully completes all the missions and returns to her original world, the higher-ups will restore your body to perfect health. And on top of that, you’ll receive a trillion-yuan reward.
Jiang Ruoqing’s eyes instantly lit up.
“!!!”
A trillion…
A trillion yuan?!
Why didn’t you say that sooner?!
If she’d known about that, why the hell would she want to die?!
That meant she wouldn’t just survive…
She could return to her original world completely healed and live the rest of her life doing absolutely nothing!
She could retire on the spot and just lie flat for the rest of her life!
