Summary:
“Vicious Female Supporting Character in an Old-School Domineering CEO Romance Novel Awakens + After Awakening, Female Supporting Character is Still Vicious + Everyone Ends up in the Crematorium”
Amidst the clamor of the crowd, which sounded like a pot boiling over, various familiar voices gave Gou An a splitting headache. She lifted her hand, intending to cover her ears.
However, at the forefront of the crowd, there was always someone who remained silent.
The tall, immaculately dressed man looked down on everyone like a god, with icy eyes that could freeze one to the bone.
He didn’t seem to notice Gou An’s wrists, which were red and raw from being handcuffed, but instead raised his chin in her direction and spoke calmly and indifferently to the police behind him: “What are you waiting for? Take her away.”
… …
One night, after a week of sleepless nights following the loss of her beloved cat, Gou An suddenly realized that she might be the supporting character in a domineering CEO romance novel.
As the darling daughter of Gou Yu, the wealthy hotel industry magnate in Jiangcheng, and with a marriage alliance with the He family, Miss Gou was the most dazzling figure in Jiangcheng’s high society.
However, instead of enjoying her privileged life, she bullied and oppressed the female lead, Lu Wan, who lived in the lower city.
– She impersonated the female lead and became the fake White Moonlight who had saved the second male lead.
– She bullied the female lead, who was working temporarily at a banquet, and poured red wine over her head.
– She stole the female lead’s position as the top scorer in the exam and the opportunity to give the freshman welcome speech just for fun.
– She made the female lead wear a swim ring and stay in the pool for half an hour during winter.
– She snatched the female lead’s part-time job for fun.
– She coveted the female lead’s ambiguous relationship with a potential young male love interest.
– She threw a tantrum.
– She treated people like dirt.
… …
Gou An had done or was planning to do everything on the list.
The powerful young uncle, her cold and distant fiancé, her brother who treated her like an enemy, her loyal bodyguard who pretended to be faithful, they would all become the foundation for the female lead’s success.
… …
Gou An looked up at the clock. It was now 8:30 in the evening.
In fifteen minutes, her fiancé He Ran, who had just found out that she was the fake White Moonlight who saved his life, would knock on her door and hand her a freshly written and still warm agreement to break off their engagement.
At this point, the most powerful support behind her, other than her parents, would have collapsed.
Gou An: “…”
Oh my god, somebody save me.
Translator’s Notes:
This story is so full of cliche and tropes but it IT IS SO FRICKIN’ FUN! The author is obviously poking fun at the genre so even as all the tropes are happening around her, Gou An—the awakened vicious female supporting character—is side-eyeing everything.
Gou An is chaotic. She is willful, arrogant, and unapologetic about it. But I love her so much. She’s no white lotus and definitely no green tea bitch—no, she wouldn’t spend time scheming behind your back, she’d directly slap you upfront and stomp on you for good measure while you’re still being pitiful on the ground.
And while the overall tone is comedic and every other scene is hilarious, the author writes the characters’ emotions in a way that really punches the readers’ guts. Regrets, letting go, moving on, knowing what you lost, grabbing on so you don’t lose what’s important, being unwilling, choosing to be satisfied with what you have—everyone grows in this story.
And the author really knows how to give readers that feeling of satisfaction. Everyone ‘gets what they deserve’ and the comeuppance doesn’t wait until a hundred chapters later. There’s no literal face-slapping but the emotional catharsis feels so much better.
To be laughing out loud one moment, and sniffling into tissues the next, I think this story is a gem amidst the hundred other stories like it.
