Wen Yun was following a novel about a real heiress’s comeback story, but the main character ended up committing suicide! Furious at the disappointing ending, she wrote a scathing review. Who knew that she would wake up to find herself transmigrated into the book, becoming the “green tea” fake heiress who uses manipulative “tea-like” tactics—like backhanded compliments and sowing discord—to drive the real heiress to her death.
Even worse, the system she’s bound to is all about being “green tea,” and she needs to use “tea-flavored” words just to stay alive!
Wen Yun transmigrates at the exact moment the real heiress, Ruan Yu, is brought home. Faced with the teary-eyed, well-behaved girl in the backseat and the system’s “green tea” script popping up in her face, Wen Yun thinks for two seconds. She smiles and hands Ruan Yu a pack of tissues, saying, “I don’t know why, but I suddenly wanted to give you something. You won’t refuse it, right?”
Not long after transmigrating, Wen Yun has a startling realization: the real heiress is a reborn character! And she’s reborn from the very ending where she died!
Wen Yun thinks: I need to save my own skin!
She becomes even more dedicated to standing by Ruan Yu. She “makes tea” for the villainous side characters and takes extra care of Ruan Yu, helping her little by little to avoid the original story’s tragic ending.
One day, after they’ve grown up, the real heiress is helping her put on some jewelry. She suddenly leans in and kisses her, mimicking Wen Yun’s earlier words. “I don’t know why, but I suddenly wanted to kiss you. You won’t refuse, right?”
Reborn and back in her seventeenth year, Ruan Yu’s heart is completely cold. In her memory, this year was dark and suffocating. Her biological parents’ coldness and disdain, combined with the fake heiress’s duplicitous charm, completely shattered her hopes for family affection.
Because of the fake heiress’s schemes, she was cast out of the Wen family, abandoned by everyone, and utterly heartbroken. She finally took her own life.
Reborn into this life, everything is the same—except for the fake heiress, who used to scheme against her. Now, her personality is completely different.
“This is your home, after all.”
“You’re so amazing. It’s their loss for not cherishing you.”
“I’ll be a family member you can trust and rely on.”
From then on, Ruan Yu learns that there is someone who will carefully care for her, protect her, and go to great lengths to get her everything she “deserves,” patiently witnessing her transformation.
Unknowingly, she begins to depend on this person who is so different from the fake heiress in her memory. This dependence grows until she becomes more and more greedy. She not only wants that person to smile at her and be kind to her, but she also wants her to one day lean close and whisper in a hoarse, gentle voice, “Don’t ever turn bad.”
