In summer, the sky brightens quickly. It's only 5:30, and the distant sky is already turning white. Outside the window, some diligent early birds are practicing their singing, and green leaves occasionally brush against the glass.
Lan Qingyue lazily rolled over, and the script that had been knocking over the bedside fell to the floor with a "thud." She reflexively got up, leaned over the bedside to look at the script that was turning the pages, rubbed her sore eyes, and continued to close her eyes.
After her manager, Axi, left last night, the system also didn't appear. Bored, Lan Qingyue read the script, focusing on her part. She became more and more addicted to it, staying up too late to fall asleep.
In the latter half of the night, she couldn't fall asleep. She only started to doze off when she could hear cars driving outside.
The plot kept replaying in my mind. The second female lead's story seemed to be much more challenging than the female lead's. A chivalrous woman who roamed the martial arts world was unexpectedly drawn into the struggle for imperial power and also unexpectedly reunited with her family. She thought she could enjoy the warmth of home, but what awaited her was a long-planned conspiracy that led to the massacre of her entire family overnight.
Originally a righteous and awe-inspiring second female lead, in order to find the truth and seek revenge, changed her appearance and entered the palace. Various intrigues and conspiracies forced her to become a manipulator of the conspiracy, making her the biggest villain in the drama. The second female lead is both hateful and pitiful.
She actually quite liked this kind of clichéd storyline of a vengeful female warrior.
Such a challenging role, if played well, as Axi said, will lead to meteoric success and a place among the top tier; if played poorly, it will only result in being drowned in the spittle of haters.
"Ugh!!! How am I supposed to portray this kind of character?"
Full of righteousness in the beginning, but sinister and scheming in the end, the standard for turning evil. Lan Qingyue couldn't help but punch her pillow. Although she also had a dream of becoming a star and actress when she was a child, and even played house with her friends every day, playing teacher and classmate games, and having a love triangle between two girls fighting over one boy, those were all things of the past, and she didn't want to look back.
When she got to junior high school, she only wrote novels for a computer. Unexpectedly, she wrote for several years and it became a habit. This is probably the only thing she has persisted in.
Now that she has become the "original owner" of this body, she can only continue living the life of the original owner.
"My Lord..." Just as Lan Qingyue's eyelids began to droop, the system silently appeared in the room.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing here so early in the morning? You're disturbing my sleep."
Lan Qingyue jumped up and sat cross-legged.
"My lady, I have brought you a script."
This wretched flame speaks as if it has its own thoughts.
If the system hadn't bound her to it, she would have suspected that the system and Axi knew each other.
"You don't need to tell me, Axi already sent the script over yesterday."
System: "My lord, your mission has been successfully upgraded. Your rewards will increase with your acting skills and popularity."
Can this thing be calculated like this?
Lan Qingyue glanced sideways at the flickering flames, suspecting that the system was going further and further down the path of tricking her.
"Tell me about it."
"My lady, if you can film a scene in one take, you will receive a diamond as a reward."
More diamonds, more diamonds. She remembered a celebrity saying that diamonds are worthless, and you can get a bunch for a few thousand dollars. So, the basket of diamonds that the system gave her was only worth tens of thousands of dollars.
Ugh... what a stingy jerk!
"What about popularity? How is it calculated?"
