After Seeing Through the Plot, the Cannon Fodder Supporting Female Lead Overturned Her Fate

Synopsis: 

Ye An worked hard for years and finally reached the pinnacle of her life. However, one day she suddenly “awakened” and discovered she was actually a doomed cannon fodder character in a novel with only a few years left to live.

Devastated by this realization, Ye An spent her days moping at home and drowning her sorrows in alcohol. That is, until she heard the news: Xia Yihuan, her rival of many years, had unexpectedly gone bankrupt due to a single strategic error.

Watching this “inaccessible flower of the high peaks” begin to wither, Ye An felt a flicker of pity. Thinking she should accumulate some good karma for her next life, she decided to extend a helping hand to her former nemesis.

There was one condition: For the next three years, Xia Yihuan had to serve as her personal assistant, obeying her every command without a single word of complaint.

In a moment of crisis where survival was at stake, Xia Yihuan had no choice but to bow her head in humiliation: “Fine.”

Ye An: Wait, why does this suddenly feel so good?!

In the days that followed, Ye An had the time of her life. By day, she watched Xia Yihuan act as a stern, cold CEO; by night, she ordered her to massage her shoulders and serve her tea.

Three years later, Ye An’s funds were entirely depleted, and her life was supposedly reaching its end. She chose a dignified way to go, lying quietly on a bed of rose petals to await death.

The result… she woke up the next morning with nothing but a backache. After checking, it turned out the “script” was wrong—she was actually going to live until ninety-nine.

Ye An, who was reborn but now penniless with pockets cleaner than her face: “?? Isn’t this a scam?!”

To survive the remaining decades of her life, Ye An had no choice but to shamelessly beg Xia Yihuan for mercy. To her surprise, Xia Yihuan mirrored her past behavior and proposed a condition of her own.

Ye An: “…Just say it. I’ll do my best to fulfill it.”

Xia Yihuan: “It’s not that difficult. I know you can do it.”

Ye An, confused: “What is it?”

Xia Yihuan curled her lips into a pleasant smile: “Marry me.”

Xia Yihuan always knew she was a protagonist with a powerful “halo.” For years, her life had been smooth sailing. Aside from a system error that caused her company to go bankrupt, she had never known failure.

Until the day she was bound to her rival, Ye An, as a personal assistant.

From then on, every night she spent watching over Ye An as she slept, Xia Yihuan was utterly defeated. Her heart raced so wildly it was impossible to stay calm.

Later, the System couldn’t stand it anymore and offered various temptations to lure Xia Yihuan away from Ye An so she could return to her peak. Before the System could finish, Xia Yihuan rejected it ruthlessly: “I can give up fame, status, money, and interests.”

“But she must be mine.”
