Chapter 1.2 - Waking Up (2)
Immediately after that, the media released a photo of her walking out of the hotel in her disheveled clothes, pushing her entirely into the center of the storm. Chen Wang did not step up to defend her in any way.
The engagement banquet turned her into the laughing stock of capital. The picture painted her as a shameless sl*t and labeled her as a money-grubbing, shameless individual who’d pretend to be the person that her adopted parents were searching for.
Su Nuo didn’t understand why Chen Wang was so cruel.
She had been adopted by the Chen’s since she was 5. Due to health reasons, she couldn’t attend school like other kids so Chen Wang, who was 6 years older than her, was both her brother and her playmate. Su Nuo had given all she had to love him, to appease him. She had taken up all sorts of extracurricular activities to win him over, yet the only thing she received in return was indifference and mockery.
That very night, Su Nuo slit her wrist to commit suicide.
After she had died was when Su Nuo realized that the world she was in was a counterattack novel by the name of “The CEO’s Pampered Second Female Lead” and all her questions were answered at that moment.
In the novel, Su Nuo was a dodder-like original female lead. When she was still a child, she was mistaken as the daughter of the Chen’s benefactor when they brought her home and raised her with Chen Wang, but Chen Wang had zero interest in her.
Up until a girl by the name of Meng Yiran showed up in their lives, her natural personality and attractiveness quickly caught the male lead’s attention, and the two started dating not too long after.
Naturally Su Nuo felt very unjust. She cried; she fussed; she threatened to hang herself.* She tried everything within her power to get Chen Wang back. Chen Wang, fed up with all her drama, no longer pretended to be civil with her. He hired private investigators to look into her and finally learned that the item that proved her to be the benefactor’s daughter, as well as her identify, were fake. The book ended with the marriage between Chen Wang and Meng Yiran. Meng Yiran had successfully earned the fondness of the Chen’s couple. She had also gained the halo of movie queen and became a goddess to many. As for Su Nuo, she died a pitiful death in a foreign land.
* She cried; she fussed; she threatened to hang herself. – Just a Chinese saying used to describe a drama queen. Not literal.
The system Su Nuo had gained in death had further told her that in the world of the novel, the original female lead was doomed to be replaced by the second female lead, Meng Yirun, and everything that once belonged to her would also go to Meng Yirun. The once beloved Su Nuo would be despised by all and end with a traumatic death. If she wanted to turn this around, she must first complete 10 transmigration assignments. When she returned, she would have a healthy body back.
And just like that, Su Nuo had became a quick transmigrator. She was a flirtatious concubine of a troubled nation, a cannon fodder of a prominent family, a young girl who joined the army for her father, a Miss of a gang during a dystopia era. A total of ten worlds over the course of eight years. Eight years and it all felt like just a dream.
She stared at the gauze wrapped around her wrist, stupefied. After all those transmigrations, Su Nuo had seen dead bodies piled into a mountain; she had walked through the streets crawling with zombies; she had sat on the throne and been in the emperor’s bed. She had learned that love wasn’t the one and only thing. She had also learned the importance of life and health.
Chen Wang…
Chen Wang…
That name had stirred up squalls and tidal waves countlessly in her life. She had once loved him greater her life itself, but no matter how hard she tried, he never reciprocated. When she thought about that name now, she had no more feelings for it.
