Every day, the cannon fodder tries to prevent the male lead from destroying the world, while the yandere male lead deviates further and further from his character setting.
Luo Jiu was acciden...
Glug, glug...
There was a deathly silence all around, as if you were the only person left in the world.
Luo Jiu felt as if she were in deep water, sinking deeper and deeper. She tried to reach out and grab something, but found that everything, like seawater, was slipping through her fingers.
Is he going to die?
[Ding... Fourth World Dungeon Activated!]
"Cough cough!"
Luo Jiu struggled to climb out of the bathtub. The feeling of choking on water made her very uncomfortable, and she was still shaken by the memory of facing death.
This is back to modern times.
Couldn't you have chosen a better place to possess me? Last time I was blind, and this time I almost drowned again.
Don't worry, Master, with 007 here, this kind of accident won't happen.
-007? You're back?
Luo Jiu was momentarily incredulous upon hearing that familiar voice.
Yes, it can continue serving its master.
Upon hearing this, Luo Jiu couldn't help but smile. But then, a voice suddenly echoed in her mind.
[Fool, you never learn. It seems this punishment has had no effect on you at all.]
-09?
Luo Jiu hesitated and asked, "How can there be two systems?"
[Hmm, the system assigned me to monitor Zero-Seven. If he makes another mistake, he will be destroyed.]
[Furthermore, to avoid what happened before, the system has added a new rule: in future missions, the system must not participate in the host's strategy except for necessary background information and mission reminders.]
Ling Jiu's cold voice entered Luo Jiu's mind, making her feel ashamed. After all, the mistake last time was caused by herself, and she understood the system's new rules.
According to Ling Jiu's clues, the original owner of this body was a member of a girl group, possessing only a pretty face, and a minor celebrity in the entertainment industry. She had been framed and verbally abused on Weibo for three days. In a fit of anger, she got drunk at home and accidentally drowned in the bathtub. Luo Jiu happened to be the one who benefited.
This time, the target of the strategy is Shen Jinchen, the youngest Oscar winner in history.
The identity assigned by the system was supposed to make it easier to get along with the male lead, but who knew that after winning the award, the male lead was in poor condition and hadn't acted properly for more than two years.
According to the plot, if the male lead hasn't made a comeback in a year, he will officially retire from the entertainment industry, go home to inherit billions of dollars, transform into the legendary domineering CEO, and live a happy and fulfilling life with the female lead.
At that point, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Luo Jiu will become cannon fodder in the original script, judged as having failed the mission, thus truly ending Game Over.
Luo Jiu hadn't recovered from the huge blow when she heard someone calling her from outside.
"Sister Luo? Are you inside? I'm coming in."
Upon hearing this, Luo Jiu quickly looked down at her naked body and hurriedly said, "Don't come in, I'll go out right away."
Luo Jiu hurriedly wrapped herself in a bath towel, and rushed out without even drying her hair.
"Sister Luo?"
The person who came was a junior assistant, whose voice became somewhat unsteady upon seeing Luo Jiu, a beauty who had just emerged from her bath.
There's nothing I can do. Although my older sister isn't a good dancer or actress, she's still qualified to be a pretty but talentless pretty face.
Just look at that face, who can resist it?
"Chestnut? Is something urgent?"
Based on the system's prompts, Luo Jiu knew that this was the original owner's newly recruited assistant.
"cough."
Li Li was brought back to her senses. Looking at the abnormal blush on Luo Jiu's face and the faint scent of wine around her, there was nothing she didn't understand.
He immediately pulled Luo Jiu down to sit, saying with heartache:
"Sister Luo, don't listen to those trolls online. They know nothing, they just stir up trouble and distort the facts. It's not worth getting drunk for them."
Luo Jiu: "..."
Even if I said it wasn't me, you probably wouldn't believe me.
"Alright, sis, don't go online these days. Focus on preparing for joining the crew."
Lili paused in her hand as she dried his hair, and whispered, "This might be our last chance."
The original owner was discovered by a talent scout and brought to the company. With this face, she successfully skipped all kinds of practice and interviews and became a member of a girl group created by the company.
Unexplained arrivals always arouse jealousy, and the original owner became the isolated one in the team.
If one possesses exceptional abilities, they might be able to persuade others. But… the original owner of this body was truly a complete "pretty face," utterly useless except for her looks. And to make matters worse, she didn't know how to utilize her strengths, appearing incredibly stiff in front of the camera.
Two years have passed, and the original girl group has failed to make a splash in this ever-changing and complex industry. The company has decided to disband the group.
Luo Jiu, this good-for-nothing who has been freeloading for so long, is also about to face the risk of contract termination.
Upon hearing this, Luo Jiu paused in her actions.
"Yes. That's right."
She can't be fired. Given the mess the original owner left behind, being fired would practically mean retiring from the industry. Wouldn't that ruin her mission to seduce the male lead?
Lili still feels sorry for her idol (mainly because of her looks). Her idol has already worked very hard, she's just a little shy about showing herself on screen.
"Oh, by the way, this is the script Sister Liu asked me to bring to you. You'll be playing the third female lead."
Luo Jiu took the script, flipped through it, and a smirk involuntarily crept onto her lips. This third female lead was the most vicious supporting character, the kind who would get pelted with eggs if she walked down the street.
Seeing that Luo Jiu's expression was a little bad, Li Li was afraid that Luo Jiu would throw a tantrum and refuse to act, so she quickly comforted her:
"Sis, although the character of the third female lead is a bit unlikable, the script is good."
"Maybe if this show becomes a hit, my sister will become famous too."
Luo Jiu: "..."
How helpless and distrustful one must be to place their expectations on this drama?
Luo Jiu became withdrawn. She rested her chin on one hand, stared ahead, and couldn't help but sigh.
Seeing this, Lili carefully removed her hand from her body. "Sis, stop looking at Weibo."
"I'll pick you up when you start filming tomorrow morning, don't forget."
As Lili closed the door, the bedroom fell silent once again.
Luo Jiu sighed, walked to the mirror, and began to examine her face in this world.
The woman in the mirror had skin as soft as jade, snow-white and translucent, with a rosy blush from just having taken a bath, pink and tender, like a soft glutinous rice ball, tempting one to poke it open.
Her crescent-shaped eyes, seemingly drunk yet not quite, held a hint of post-drinking haze, making her alluring even more.
Luo Jiu tugged at her cheeks, curled her lips into a smile, and the beauty mark under her eye seemed to come alive, making her face even more alluring.
She suddenly understood why the original owner of this body had been able to stay at the company for two years without being fired.
Just based on that face, she's got the makings of a leading lady from any angle.
