The hall was resplendent, with high-end, grand crystal chandeliers casting a filtered glow on everyone. The vibrant red carpet looked incredibly expensive, and fresh, alluring flowers adorned the tabletops.
The people coming and going were all exceptionally handsome men and beautiful women, all dressed in extraordinary attire. This setting clearly belonged to a wealthy family. Jun Jiuli elegantly took a sip of red wine before allowing Shui Wa to transmit the plot.
Her eldest brother, Zhao Yuming, was a business elite, extraordinarily handsome and having already ranked among the top ten on the Forbes Rich List at a young age.
Her second brother, Zhao Yuanming, was a medical genius, refined and elegant, capable of snatching lives back from the King of Hell. He was a research professor at a medical university and had developed multiple anti-cancer drugs.
Her third brother, Zhao Xianming, was a top idol, dashing and charismatic, with fans spanning the globe. He was the dream of countless fangirls.
She, however, was an unknown 18th-tier celebrity in the entertainment industry, refusing all resources against her family's advice. She wanted to forge her own path.
Starting as an extra, she took on any role, be it cannon fodder, a body double, or even playing a corpse. All she sought was a little more recognition, and she only broke into the 18th tier after a candid photo of her went viral online.
The entertainment industry's waters were too deep for her to navigate. She eventually faced suppression from minor celebrities, abuse from anti-fans, and harassment from unwanted advances.
It was then that she decided to give up and return home to live as a carefree parasite. After all, her family was wealthy, and her brothers were outstanding; she just needed to live happily.
You might think she was destined for a pampered life, but you'd be wrong. She was merely cannon fodder.
The original host's name was Zhao Xinming. Her life should have been smooth and peaceful. However, due to the female protagonist, Xiao Yanyan, her life, along with her mother's, took a turbulent turn, leading to tragic outcomes for the rest of their lives.
Xiao Yanyan was described as gentle and beautiful, standing less than 160 cm tall.
The public knew of her addiction and believed she brought it upon herself. Even in death, she was spat upon, accused of betraying the people and the police. As a public figure, engaging in such acts and failing to repent promptly.
Her "vicious" mother was sent to a mental institution by the men in the family. Ultimately unable to bear the torment of the deviants within, she jumped to her death.
Even until the very end, she tried to use her death to awaken her loved ones. But her will was never even glanced at by them. The other cannon fodder who met their demise will not be described individually.
The original host's wish was for these dozen or so "true lovers" to receive their just deserts, and to protect all those who died in the cannon fodder battle.
Jun Jiuli: "This is utterly ridiculous, a farce orchestrated by a farce, taking absurdity to the extreme."
Shui Wa: "This female lead is truly something else, and this world is genuinely messed up. It feels like there's no order at all."
"Haha, as long as the protagonist group is happy, who cares if you're not. This kind of protagonist deserves to be dealt with, my blade can no longer be restrained."
"Fine, go ahead and wreak havoc to your heart's content. After all, this Heavenly Dao seems dead, not stirring at all."
"(-_-)!!"
