[Chinese BG novel] 没出息的豪门女配[重生] / Promising wealthy female supporting role

"Promising wealthy female supporting role" is a story about reborn Du Youwei. In her last life she was instigated to be against a woman and this woman happened to be dating a man with whom she had a baby kiss. She didn't really care about that kiss, but bore unbearable consequences for her small actions. Her family went bankrupt, all people left them, she wasn't ready for life at all, she felt unbearable and jumped. She went back in time before things took a serious turn. Now she looks back at some events with not such a simple-minded view and realizes how deeply she was instigated and how she basically took the blame for someone who was left behind the scenes and that is her supposed good friend.

She came back to change things.

At the same time her mother went to a master because her daughter wasn't having a good time and the person told her to wait under the tiger and the tiger will come. She spent two days in a park under a stone figure, got a cold, but also met a really handsome man. One thing is when she politely said hello, he turned around and walked away.

Zhang Shaoyan was at the helm of the Zhang family, others thought he ruled the world, but only he and his personal assistant knew one secret, ZSY suffered from occasional headaches and those weren't connected to brain problems, but were his psychological shadows and only one song he found accidentally was left on his phone as his salvation. Little did he know when he went to a charity auction and when Du Youwei was presenting her lot on stage he finally found the person he was looking for.

That's basically the summary of the beginning of this story. I'm glad I persisted, because I was a bit taken aback by the actions of DYW's mother and how she felt unfeeling and weird. Sand sculptures were a bit aggressive. Later the story actually had a really fun and easy-going side to it. What I liked about the humor that it wasn't built on word-play that is hard to get after translating, but basic humor that can be understood. I also found it refreshing that both people were attracted and began to be together early on, like around 20th chapter already with full length of this novel being 83 chapters (+extras). From inexplicably meeting to later development it wasn't boring too. What is a usual way of things is how either we see a slow development between the pair and it takes time to come together or if people come together it's all boring sweet stuff. What saved the day for me is how DYW and ZSY treat each other with humor, they're joking with each other, it's funny to see how DYW is fanning her partner, it doesn't bring the bad feeling of just being like a licking dog. It's light and humorous relationship. DYW is like a lively bird, the story is not burdened by her depression, since there's no depression, she's a lively little bird that wants to enjoy new life, she only changed a little bit of things that would put her at risk in previous life (like not being framed like in previous life), but in general she doesn't change herself, there's no burdening herself with working to the bone and handling business and such, she just escaped the calamity and that helped her and now ZSY who came into contact with her became her partial golden finger too. She still did many good deeds after the master's advice. It's a really light story and it doesn't really have a goal, since the change and love come really quickly, but there are enough funny moments and changes that entertain you. I only found that at the ending the whole travel to Japan could be cut out, but all in all it was really good :)

RATE: 4/5
