Lu Xinran wakes up to find herself transmigrated into a novel as the malicious real daughter who constantly competes with the fake daughter.
The fake daughter is delicate, elegant, and beloved, while Lu Xinran is brash, unruly, and considered the shame of the prestigious Shangshu Manor.
While others eagerly anticipate the downfall of the Shangshu Manor, transmigrated Lu Xinran is only interested in eating melons (enjoying gossip) and roasting everyone around her.
When her birth mother scolds her for being crude, her internal thoughts rage: "Raised without proper care, and you blame me?"
When the servants look down on her, she activates her gossip system: "Stealing from the master’s treasury every day—why haven’t you been reported yet?"
When mocked for her lack of manners during an outing, she gleefully roasts: "You’re the expert, right? Your whole family must be. Your mother bore you with your grandfather, your father’s a cuckold, and yet you still call him father instead of brother—such impeccable manners!"
One day, the people of the capital discover that standing next to the Second Miss of the Shangshu Manor means enjoying endless gossip and scandals, all juicy and unique every time!
Suddenly, Lu Xinran finds herself inexplicably popular. Every outing turns into a gathering, with everyone wanting to stick close to her.
At home, her once-dismissive birth mother starts timidly sewing her new clothes and making jewelry for her. The novel’s heroine becomes her dearest "sister," even offering to give her the male lead!
But no, thank you—Lu Xinran doesn’t like big wolf dogs (alpha male types). She prefers little puppy types (soft and obedient).
After overhearing her thoughts, someone changes their appearance the next day, shocking countless people in the imperial court.
