I BECAME POPULAR AFTER ACTING LIKE A GREEN TEA

"Xia An, what are you up to again?"

A clear male voice containing a hint of impatience entered Xia An's ears.

"Can you not be so childish?"

"Xia An, I won't come to see you again if there is a next time."

Xia An finally lifted her head and looked at the man beside her.

This man's name is Li Jing Qing, he is the male lead of this world.

That's right, she transmigrated into a book. When she transmigrated, she ended up in the hospital. As soon as she opened her eyes, she heard the accusations of this man beside her.

The woman beside him is the female lead of this world: Su Wan.

The original owner, Xia An, and the male lead grew up together as childhood friends. According to the normal process, they were about to get engaged and married.

By chance, the male lead met Su Wan, the daughter of the original owner's maid, and a heart-wrenching love triangle began.

In this struggle, the original owner kept seeking trouble with the female lead. Gradually, she became the female supporting character. Later on, she was plotted into a fake marriage for commercial benefits and the male lead destroyed the Xia family, Father Xia died from a stroke and Mother Xia suffered a mental breakdown.

After having her engagement annulled publicly and losing her family members, the original owner goes into a trance, falls from a high-rise building, and dies of a miserable death.

"Jing Qing, don't say that about An An. It's all my fault, I shouldn't have participated in this show. An An, she just…" Su Wan said while lowering her head.

Xia An An pouted her lips and didn't speak.

"Wan Wan, don't speak for her. This tactic has been used several times. It's not like she can be a child forever!" As Li Jing Qing said this, he looked at Xia An with distaste in his eyes.

"Xia An, apologise to Wan Wan!" His tone became serious.

Xia An didn't have time to care about him; she reached for the apple beside her and bit into it.

It was super sweet.

[Host, I suggest you capture the male lead.]

Xia An: "I don't want to."

[If you were to capture the male lead, you would be the new female lead and you can get the male lead's exclusive affection.]

Xia An, "I don't want to, he is scum."

[The male lead is just wavering at this stage. He'll madly fall for you after you have successfully captured him.]

Xia An: "I don't care, just give me a different route."

[It will be tough to change routes.]

Xia An: "Send me back if you are not going to change for me."

[…]

[Beep—Congratulations to the host for opening the route of self-salvation for the female supporting character. If you want to avoid the tragic death ending, you have to resist the influence of the plot setting. If you successfully resist it, you can offset the value of the female supporting character's bad luck.

[A friendly reminder, your current bad luck value is 999. The higher the bad luck value, the greater the influence of the plot setting.]

Xia An blinked her eyes. "What do you want me to do?"

[Host, you have to explore it yourself.]

Xia An bit on the apple. "Then give me a golden finger."[1]

[Sorry, there's no such thing.]

Xia An: "I don't care. All the other female supporting characters have it, I want it too."

[….]

(Cry) Other female supporting characters aren't this rogue!

[Special application has been made for the host. We are currently matching the host with an assistive NPC[2]…]

[NPC target locked on. Deep match detection is currently being performed for the host. Please be patient, Host.]

In the middle of bargaining between Xia An and the system, Li Jing Qing frowned when he saw that she didn't say anything nor did she apologize to Su Wan.

""

"Xia An, I said, apologise!" Li Jing Qing's face turned sullen.

Su Wan immediately said, "Jing Qing, it's alright. An An probably fainted for real. She couldn't be framing me."

"Wan Wan, you are simply too kind. The doctor has said that there is nothing wrong with her body, she just pretended to faint. I won't listen to you today. I must make sure she apologizes to you!" Li Jing Qing was very firm on this.

Xia An finally lifted her head and retrieved her memories.

It turned out that Li Jing Qing was a superstar in this world, and Su Wan was a Little Flower[3] that had just begun to be popular.

The original owner, on the other hand, was an infamous flower vase who pursued Li Jing Qing by entering the entertainment industry.

After learning that Su Wan and Li Jing Qing were participating in a romance variety show, the original owner immediately joined as well. Today was the first day of shooting and the original owner stopped Su Wan backstage.

"Wan Wan, it can't be that you like Brother Jing Qing, do you?"

Su Wan remained silent.

The original owner became anxious. "You know I've loved Brother Jing Qing since I was a child. You know that! You can't do this to me, this is betrayal!"

Su Wan finally spoke, "An An, I can't control what happens in relationships."

The original owner finally broke down and shouted, "What can't you control?! You are stealing my fiancé!"

As always, Su Wan spoke gently, "An An, I never wanted to steal anything from you. It's useless for you to look for me regarding relationships. You have to find Jing Qing. If he doesn't like you, there's nothing I can do."

After a pause, she added, "Moreover, you two are not engaged. He's not your fiancé."

The original owner was fuming. She raised her hand to hit Su Wan. However, before she could do so, her heart suddenly contracted and she fell to the ground.

Just then, sounds of footsteps were heard. Su Wan immediately crouched down and called out to the original owner very urgently.

The person who arrived was none other than Li Jing Qing. Li Jing Qing had grown up with the original owner, it would be a lie if he didn't have feelings for her. Hence, he immediately ran over and carried Xia An, "What's wrong with An An?"

Su Wan immediately said, "I don't know. Just now, An An told me to quit the show. I just heard your footsteps and she suddenly fainted."

Li Jing Qing immediately frowned and looked at Xia An skeptically.

Xia An froze for three seconds after retrieving her memory.

So melodramatic?[4]

"Xia An, you've always been capricious yet I have never said anything about it, but you can't frame others! Why have you become this way now?" Li Jing Qing was still lecturing her.

Xia An didn't want to act in such a melodramatic drama with them. Immediately, she wanted to say, "Get out of here, all of you." However, the words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't say them.

Eh?

[A reminder to the host that your current bad luck value is 999. You are required to maintain the 'infatuated with the male lead' persona.]

Xia An: …

She doesn't want to!

Xia An thought of something and saw a nurse behind her. She suddenly shouted pitifully, "Sister Nurse!"

Xia An was beautiful and had a sweet voice. Once she called out, the older female nurse immediately pushed Li Jing Qing away and walked over.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? Where do you feel discomfort?"

Xia An obediently leaned on the older female nurse. She said very softly, "My head hurts."

Xia An's sentence was extremely moving. The older female nurse's heart immediately ached for her. One of her hands touched Xia An's head. "You just woke up, you need more rest. Lie down quickly, don't exert yourself."

The older female nurse assisted Xia An in lying down. She turned around and saw the two behind her. Her face immediately turned unpleasant, "The patient needs to rest. You two are making a huge commotion here. How can she rest?"

Su Wan froze and immediately said, "Didn't the doctor say there was no problem?"

The older female nurse immediately retorted, "No problem means the physical examination is fine. But she might be uncomfortable after fainting. Are you a friend of the patient?!"

Jing Qing furrowed his brows. "Did she really faint?"

The older female nurse glared at him with great dissatisfaction. "Nonsense! If she didn't, then did she pretend to faint?!"

Seeing that Li Jing Qing and the others had no intention of leaving, Xia An stretched one hand out of the blanket and tugged on the corner of the older female nurse's clothes. Her big eyes were pitiful, "Elder Sister, I want to sleep."

The older female nurse immediately turned to Li Jing Qing and said seriously, "If you two have nothing else, you can go out first. The patient needs to rest!"

Thus, Li Jing Qing and Su Wan were driven out by the older female nurse.

Li Jing Qing leaned on the ward's door, the nurse's words ringing in his mind. His brow creased.

Su Wan glanced at Li Jing Qing and said, "Jing Qing, don't worry too much. An An…"

"I misunderstood her this time." Li Jing Qing suddenly spoke.

The grip on Su Wan's fist tightened.

Meanwhile, in Xia An's mind:

[Beep—Minus 7 from your bad luck value. 992 remaining.]

Xia An: Eh?? How did it get reduced?

—

Xia An took a half-day break and set off to continue filming the variety show.

She was participating in Lemon Broadcasting Station's self-produced dating variety show: 24-Hour Love. There were eight guests on the show, four men and four women.

Before the show began to film, there was no official announcement of the guests. However, the internet was flooded with rumours and the audience's anticipation for the show grew even more.

The program was broadcasted live. The first episode was themed "First Meeting", with each guest holding a camera and broadcasting live in eight booths.

Xia An was taken to the front of Lemon Broadcasting Station's building and got out of the car.

As soon as she turned on the live stream, the bullet screen messages started to appear.

[I want to puke. It's really Xia An, she's really here!]

[What a dog-skin plaster[5] that one can't eradicate!]

[Xia An, have some face! Li Jing Qing will not fancy you!]

[Xia An, get out of show business! You're trying to force our Elder Brother to participate in the romance variety show, get lost!]

[Today's broadcast was delayed because of you. Fainted? Why don't you go and die?! Shameless!]

The popularity of Xia An's live stream skyrocketed, but everyone was there to scold her.

Xia An couldn't see the bullet screen's messages and walked calmly towards the Lemon Broadcasting Station's building.

In the first episode, several guests would set off from various corners of Lemon Broadcasting Station and find one another within the station.

This was a very popular plot with viewers, they believed that there was an unspoken ambiguity and destiny to meet in the huge Lemon Broadcasting Station.

Xia An headed for the building and the viewers became very anxious.

[Crap, Xia An is going to the East area! Elder Brother is in the East area!]

[It's over! It's over! Xia An must have a script! She is doing it on purpose!]

[No! I don't want to see Xia An find our Elder Brother!]

In fact, Xia An didn't want to meet Li Jing Qing any less than the viewers. After all, she still had to maintain her infatuated persona, and it was hard for her to do so!

Meanwhile, Li Jing Qing was walking aimlessly in the East area.

He was thinking about Xia An's matter today, regarding what the nurse said in the morning and whether or not he really misunderstood Xia An.

The viewers were so anxious to see him so careless.

[Elder Brother, don't go any further! Xia An is in front! Hurry, run!]

[Although I know Elder Brother was forced to participate in this show, but I beg you, Elder Brother, please don't get caught by Xia An!]

[Quickly retreat! Xia An is coming! Quickly run!]

[It's over! It's over! Xia An is coming from downstairs! What should we do? Elder Brother is going to be pestered again!]

Xia An was indeed going up the stairs. Every step she took made Li Jing Qing's fan's hearts tremble.

Seeing that she was about to reach the 7th floor and was about to bump into Li Jing Qing, who was facing the staircase entrance, the fans were so anxious that they wanted to rush into the screen and push Xia An back to the 6th floor.

It's over! Xia An is going to pester our Elder Brother again!

Xia An took one step at a time. She walked unhurriedly up to the 7th floor. She was about to exit the stairwell when she saw Li Jing Qing's figure from afar.

!!

Why is she so unlucky?!

With a shudder, she immediately turned around and went up to the 8th floor.

I didn't see him. I didn't see him.

Escape, escape.

All the viewers: ??!!
