Eating Melons and Watching the Show in a Chronicles Novel

As a member of the working class, Lin Jingyu, a cargo registrar at a port, transmigrated to the early 1970s during her lunch break.

She unexpectedly discovered that she had entered a chronicles novel written by a certain author, and her role was to be cannon fodder, a tool character to push the plot forward, an extreme female supporting character who highlighted the female lead's intelligence and kindness.

Lin Jingyu declared, "My fate is not up to heaven!" With a port full of supplies, why should she seek death? What do the male and female leads have to do with her? Isn't it better to just eat melons and watch the show?

So, she bided her time, joined hands with a military magnate even more outstanding than the male lead, and soared straight up to the top. She lived a life of integrity and became the wealthiest person in the entire world, someone not to be underestimated.

Original female lead: "..."

Didn't they say this person was extreme cannon fodder who would go offline early and get her bento? Why is she living more like a chosen daughter than the author's own biological daughter?

She suspected, "Author, did you make a mistake? She's the female lead; I'm just a passerby."
