Dressed as a green tea
All was quiet, with soft moonlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and ivory-white curtains fluttering in the breeze.
A long-haired boy in a silk nightgown was curled up at the foot of the bed, his head throbbing as if being hammered, his body trembling slightly. After a few minutes, he opened his eyes, the glaring light shining directly into them, instantly bringing tears to his eyes.
A cold, mechanical voice suddenly rang out, "Hello, host number 169. You are currently inside a book called 'Fall in Love, Dragon Overlord!' Please follow the instructions below to complete the mission, or you will be immediately eliminated."
Wen Yan's head throbbed with pain, and her eyes were bloodshot. The room before her was entirely pink, with lace-trimmed bed curtains swaying gently, and strings of pink pearls clinking together with a crisp sound.
He sat up, his fingers tracing the delicate patterns on the sheets; the smooth, soft touch brought him back to his senses.
This isn't his room at all!
Is he dreaming?
He was just curled up in his doghouse reading a novel a moment ago, how did he suddenly end up in a completely unfamiliar room?
The pain felt so real that Wenyan closed her eyes and prayed that the dream would end soon.
Sensing the host's thoughts, the system spoke again: "This is the real world. You are now Wen Yan, the second young master of the Wen family. Please play this role well, maintain your character and do not go out of character (character collapse), otherwise you will be eliminated."
After a while, Wen Yan finally remembered the Mary Sue novel. During his senior year of high school, Wen Yan was under immense pressure. After his mock exam, wanting to relax, he borrowed a novel from his deskmate. Unfortunately, a supporting character in the book had the exact same name as him, which made him uncomfortable. He only read a few chapters before putting it aside.
After finishing the college entrance exam, his deskmate gave him a book as a graduation gift. That night, he opened it and found it was the book he hadn't finished reading. Not wanting to disappoint his deskmate, he opened it and read a few chapters. Little did he know that he would die from overwork due to staying up all night.
The painful senior year of high school had just ended, and Wenyan hadn't even had time to enjoy her vacation and prepare for university life before her short life came to an end.
It's one thing to not be the main character, but being the second male lead would be fine too. But to become a minor villain is quite another story.
The character "Wenyan" in the book is a psychologically twisted villain who loves cross-dressing and schemes every day to break up the male and female protagonists. In the end, she is sent abroad by her family. Although the ending isn't bad, the process is extremely disgusting.
In short, Wen Yan is a total green tea b*tch who acts all cute and innocent in front of the male lead but is arrogant and haughty in front of others.
From then on, he had to play the role of this manipulative woman well, and Wen Yan suddenly felt that his future was bleak. His face turned pale, and his eyes went black.
Why was fate so unfair to him! Recalling his miserable experiences in the first ten years, Wen Yan became angry instantly. He could accept being poor and tired before, but now he was preparing to change his fate with knowledge, and fate made him die suddenly. What kind of fate is this?
The system sensed Wenyan's strong emotional fluctuations and reassured her, "As long as the host successfully completes the mission, you can return to your original world."
The raging fire was instantly extinguished by water. Wen Yan calmed down and sorted out what the system had said, then asked, "Mission? What mission? And why do I have to play this 'green tea' character? Can't I have a more enjoyable role?"
"What does '169th host' mean?"
"The author's abandonment of the story caused the world to collapse. The host's mission is to advance the plot and restore order to the world within the book. Character bindings are also random." The system paused for a moment, then continued, "Before you, 168 hosts have failed their missions and been sent back to their original worlds, which means they died. We hope you can play this role well and save this collapsing world."
System: "If you successfully complete the mission, you can decide whether to stay in this world or be resurrected in your original world."
Wen Yan said dejectedly, "168 people failed before me, isn't that easy?"
System: "Human greed is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant; they all failed their missions because they were too greedy. As long as you remain steadfast in your beliefs, everything will be resolved."
Wen Yan was completely confused, but the Wen Yan in the book was still a high school student and had to go to school tomorrow, so she could only sleep and get enough rest first.
As for tomorrow, let's talk about it tomorrow.
As soon as the alarm rang, Wen Yan woke up. He groped for his phone with his eyes closed, turned off the alarm, and reluctantly got up. Having finally survived his senior year of high school, he now had to go through it again. Wen Yan went to wash up with a miserable expression.
The reflection in the mirror showed a person with black hair, round eyes, fair skin, and light lips, with soft yet handsome facial features. They were no different from their original self, except their hair had grown longer.
Wen Yan even suspected that the system was too lazy to customize "Wen Yan's" face and simply used his face directly.
In the book, Wen Yan fantasizes all the time that she is a woman, and wears heavy makeup every day to cover up her male characteristics. Wen Yan sits in front of the mirror and applies a little of each cosmetic.
Looking at her heavily painted face, Wen Yan silently left in front of the mirror.
He opened the wardrobe and found only dresses. If he hadn't checked his gender when he went to the bathroom, he would have really thought he was dressed as a girl.
"Wenyan" is a man dressed as a woman who is actually a green tea b*tch. Even though she has a boys' school uniform, she can't wear it. Wenyan shook her head and accepted her fate. She put on a shirt and skirt and went downstairs to have breakfast.
A handsome young man in a suit and tie stood up from the dining table. He had a gentle demeanor and smiled warmly when he saw Wen Yan. He said, "Little Yan, you're late again."
The system sent the information to Wen Yan with a "ding". Wen Yan's older brother, Wen Ling, is six years older than her. He was outstanding from a young age and was groomed by the family as their heir. He skipped grades in university and took over the family business at a young age.
Wen Yan thought of her painted face, then looked at the short skirt she was wearing, and asked in confusion, "Doesn't he think his brother is strange?"
System: "Wen Yan has been dressed like this since junior high school, and the whole Wen family is used to it."
There's already an older brother to inherit the family business, so it doesn't matter if there's a young master with peculiar hobbies who only knows how to eat, drink, and have fun.
As soon as Wenyan stepped out of the Maybach, before she could even take a breath of fresh air, several girls surrounded her. "Wenyan! Your hair looks so good, where did you get it permed?"
"Wow, are those cufflinks made of sapphire? They're so sparkly!"
"Is it the one your brother brought back from abroad last time?"
System: Mo Sha, Sang Ruo, and Lin Pianyue appear, the four members of the cannon fodder team are all assembled.
Question to the wild goose: ?
The system offered no further explanation and fell silent again.
A gust of wind blew by, causing Wen Yan's curly hair to flutter, revealing a large, painted face hidden beneath.
The three people: "..."
Wen Yan wanted to lower his head and bury his face in his clothes, but his arrogant and unrestrained young master persona wouldn't allow it, so he could only remain silent like the others.
The three of them watched for a while, then took out cosmetics from their bags to fix his makeup. "The makeup artist you hired is terrible..."
In fact, they all knew that Wen Yan had not hired a makeup artist.
Wen Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she still had a way out. Otherwise, if she had been ridiculed, given the original owner's flirtatious temper, she would have definitely been furious. In order to maintain her persona, she would have had to do things that would attract hatred.
After changing her makeup, Wen Yan looked in the mirror and smiled. But when she thought of the original owner's character, she quickly reverted to her arrogant self.
He walked briskly, and because he was wearing a skirt, the wind was chilly. He could only hold onto the skirt with one hand, afraid that it was too short and he would expose himself.
The three of them looked at Wen Yan's posture with strange expressions.
Wen Yan looked around at the girls surrounding her and asked, "System, doesn't the whole school know I'm a boy?"
System: The book states that everyone knows "Wenyan" is male, but no one finds it strange.
Wenyan: ...That's really bizarre.
However, it was also a good thing. This setting helped Wenyan get rid of the strange looks and made him feel much more at ease.
After sitting down, Wen Yan started chatting with them casually. The system didn't provide any information; she could only obtain it by chatting with them.
Through her conversation with them, Wen Yan realized that she had completely offended the male and female leads, and that her future days would probably not be easy.
Whenever he heard how the original owner of this body made things difficult for the female lead and how he clung to the male lead, his heart sank.
The plot is mysterious, and you can't even use cheats. It's like starting on hell difficulty. Who wouldn't be frustrated?
An aura of domineering power swept in, causing the crowd to automatically part as Long Chen walked in with an indifferent expression. His exceptionally handsome appearance, coupled with his illustrious family background and innate domineering presence, made him a true prodigy. This was Long Aotian, the protagonist who always attracted attention wherever he went.
The protagonist is so charismatic, even his entrance is so imposing, Wen Yan couldn't help but sigh.
"Hey Chen, have you had breakfast yet? I just brought an extra one." Wen Yan said solicitously, trying to gauge whether Long Aotian's attitude towards him had reached an irreversible point.
Long Chen glanced at him coldly, sat down directly, and ignored him. The Long family and the Wen family were old friends and had a very good relationship. Wen Yan had been sweet-talking and charming since childhood, and was deeply loved by the elders of the Long family. Unfortunately, Long Chen was indifferent to him. Even though they had known each other since childhood, he rarely gave him a second glance, and this time was no exception.
Wen Yan is picking on Liu Xirou again, constantly making things difficult for her. It's a miracle that Long Chen even gives him a second glance.
Wen Yan had anticipated this outcome and tried to save face by saying, "Achen should have already eaten at home, right?"
To ease the tension, Mosa said with a smile, "Long Chen is like that with everyone, always cold and aloof. Last time I asked him if he wanted to attend a social gathering, he didn't even pause for a second."
The others quickly laughed and said, "That's right, that's right, he ignores everyone who tries to talk to him."
The next second, they were all proven wrong.
A sweet fragrance wafted over, and the girl's steps were light. Her long hair was jet black and shiny, and her smile was sweet. She was like a lotus emerging from the water. This must be Liu Xirou, the heroine of the White Lotus.
The term "white lotus" here is used to praise the heroine's kind, virtuous, and beautiful nature, and is not meant to be derogatory.
The female lead's entrance was just as impressive as the male lead's; it was impossible not to notice her.
"Remember to eat breakfast." Liu Xirou smiled and placed the breakfast on Long Chen's table. Long Chen, who had been expressionless, instantly broke into a smile. "Okay."
The air froze again. Mosa wished she were mute. She cautiously observed Wen Yan's expression, and seeing the resentment in Wen Yan's eyes, she didn't dare to breathe. The girls silently returned to their seats, all wondering why Long Chen and Liu Xirou had become so ambiguous.
Before the system issued an OOC warning, Wen Yan made the expression a typical scheming supporting character should have. He breathed a sigh of relief, while mentally complaining, "No wonder they're called the cannon fodder group; they can't say anything good."
A refreshing breeze wafted by, and Liu Xirou sat down. "Hi, deskmate, would you like some juice? I made an extra cup for you." She then handed a bottle of juice to Long Chen, "I forgot to give you one, hehe."
"Hiss!" Everyone gasped. Wasn't this just another slap in the face to Wen Yan? Wen Yan's girlfriends rolled their eyes. They knew she was capable, but there was no need to keep showing off.
"Hmph!" Wen Yan turned his head away angrily, ignoring her, but he really wanted to take the juice. He had forgotten to bring water, and that sandwich had choked him to death.
Liu Xirou assumed he didn't like drinking juice and didn't pay any attention. She took out her newly bought math workbook from her schoolbag and started doing the problems.
She transferred from another city to study here, and she doesn't wear designer brands. She lives in the dormitory at school. Everyone thinks that Liu Xirou gets scholarships through excellent grades to offset the high tuition fees, so she usually studies hard and doesn't dare to be careless at all.
After self-study, the teacher came in and began the lesson. The teachers at this prestigious school were highly qualified, experienced, and excellent. The top students who got in based on their grades naturally listened attentively, while the young ladies and gentlemen were arrogant and did their own thing.
As long as they don't disrupt classroom discipline, teachers generally won't bother with these young masters and ladies. After all, their families are powerful and influential, so who would want to cause trouble for themselves?
Mosa sat at the table behind Wenyan, leaning forward and excitedly saying, "Wenyan, look at Long Chen, isn't he looking at you!"
Look at him? Wasn't he ignoring him this morning? Wen Yan was puzzled, but acted expectantly. He looked at Long Aotian, followed his gaze, and discovered that Long Aotian was actually looking at Bai Lianhua.
Bai Lianhua winked playfully, and Long Aotian smiled back.
With a snort, Wen Yan turned her head away.
Long Aotian, Bai Lianhua is someone who's aiming for a scholarship, how dare you harass her? And Bai Lianhua, aren't you supposed to be paying attention in class and maintaining your grades? How come you still have time to flirt with Long Aotian?
Liu Xirou thought she was disturbing Wen Yan, so she whispered to Long Aotian, "Let's not do this anymore, let's listen to the lesson carefully!" She wrote a note to Wen Yan, "I'm sorry, deskmate, we won't disturb your studies anymore."
Mo Sha gritted her teeth. This Liu Xirou, what's she pretending for? Everyone knows Wen Yan's grades have always been at the bottom, yet she deliberately tries to provoke him. She clearly knows Wen Yan likes Long Chen, yet she deliberately flaunts it. She's so scheming and pretentious.
Mosa wanted to say something more, but Wen Yan didn't want to listen anymore and coldly said, "Shut up."
Wen Yan didn't want her to make any more comments about being cannon fodder; she wanted to minimize the amount of hatred the protagonist would accuse her of.
Mosa glanced at Wenyan with concern, then obediently shut her mouth, remaining as quiet as a chicken all morning.
