Synopsis: “After Pretending to Be a Green Tea, I Became a Heartthrob”
Female Lead: A white-cut-green* acting queen, a heartthrob, and a cross-dressing contestant in a romance variety show.
(*White-cut-green: Appears innocent but is cunning underneath.)
The female supporting characters, even those with single-sided crushes, fall for her charm. Meanwhile, the male characters vie for her attention in a massive jealousy-fueled showdown. After her true identity is revealed, chaos ensues.
The Green Tea Queen, Ning Qingyan, is reborn. To escape debt collectors, she is sent into a romance variety show as Contestant #1, disguised as a man and assigned the “undercover” role by the production team.
Undercover Mission: Prevent male and female contestants from becoming couples. If no couples form by the end of the show, she gets 10 million yuan (but will be eliminated if viewers guess her undercover identity).
Ning Qingyan:
“Easy. I’ll make everyone fall for me and then reject them all!”
Green Tea System:
- Male Contestant A: Aloof and abstinent, currently lying low in the show while facing family pressure. In the future, he will establish a business empire and become the youngest tycoon in Kyoto.Male Contestant B: Gentle and scholarly, currently penniless and relying on the show for meals. He will later become a national-level scientist, solving world problems and earning state-level recognition.Male Contestant C: Mischievous and rebellious, forced out of a boy band audition by his family. He joins the show to gain exposure and later rises to fame as an idol, then as a triple-crowned actor, and finally as a groundbreaking director.
As a supporting character in a story with no destined couples, Ning Qingyan must use her green tea persona to earn goodwill from these contestants to delay her family’s bankruptcy and unlock plot cheats.
Friendly Reminder: The four female contestants are all transmigrators. Be cautious!
