The variety show “The Most Hated Her and Him” invited six of the most disliked celebrities voted by netizens and industry insiders to participate in the recording.

The show became a hit as soon as it aired, and netizens called it the most unethical variety show they had ever seen.

However, on the day before the official recording of the show, Shang Lu suddenly realized that the world she lived in was a novel and she was a cannon fodder supporting actress, as well as the number one female star of this show, and most hated female celebrity voted by netizens.

Shang Lu exclaimed, “VIP viewing area, here I come!”

***

During a game segment, Shang Lu won and gained the priority to choose her room.

A princess syndrome actress arrogantly said, “Hey, let’s exchange rooms.”

Everyone thought they were going to have a conflict, but Shang Lu smiled and said, “It’s 50,000 yuan for one night, 20% off for two nights, do you prefer WeChat or Alipay?”

The princess syndrome actress :???

The drama queen actress deliberately tried to steal Shang Lu’s spotlight.

But, Shang Lu calmly took out a customized face mask from her bag that was specifically made for the other person’s face and said, “It’s all you, don’t worry, it will all be broadcasted as you.”

The actress : “…”

A tyrannical idol and an unsociable actor almost started a fight, and the show’s staff quickly asked Shang Lu to mediate. Shang Lu, who was enjoying the spectacle, spontaneously hosted, “Ladies and gentlemen, what we are about to show you is the annual boxing championship! The loser will be disfigured and exit the entertainment industry!”

The two people who were about to fight : …

Audience : …we thought we would have fun, but they realized that Shang Lu seemed to be having even more fun than us.

After a series of crazy antics, everyone assumed that Shang Lu must have become a public enemy, but…

No one knows when it started, the “th**ny” celebrities in the entertainment industry who were fearless and unafraid of anything began to act subtly different towards Shang Lu.

The drama queen actress took the initiative to ask Shang Lu for advice on how to play a new role;

The unsociable male actor waited in the scorching sun for three hours to buy a limited edition cake for Shang Lu;

The princess syndrome actress and the irritable male idol almost fought over the opportunity to go to the amus**ent park with Shang Lu the next day.

Even the infamous tongue-lashing director, who was known to be strict on actors’ performances, publicly said that it was an honor for him if Shang Lu agreed to play the female lead in his movie.

The haters were confused. Where did all the “villains” go? Why did you become Shang Lu’s fan club after participating in the show? This doesn’t make sense!

Later, they found out that there were more “hidden fans” of Shang Lu.

The heir of the top-tier wealthy family, Chi Yan, had a photo of seven-year-old Shang Lu stepping on a little boy’s bu*t as his phone screensaver.

When asked about the reason, Chi Yan replied leisurely, “Can’t you tell? It’s because I have a crush on her.”

Others were shocked.

Wait a minute… isn’t that little boy who was bullied Chi Yan himself?!

What about the secret crush? We can see your wedding ring shining, you know!

Beautiful and sharp-tongued fun-loving salted fish X Arrogant and protective domineering president.

I loved this story so much! The pacing can be a little odd at times, and I wish there was a bit more info about her other works instead of spending so much time on the variety show. However, the variety show is in the title, so I suppose it's justified.

The MC and ML have a good relationship, with plenty of happy fluffy times. But what impressed me more was how fleshed out the side characters are for such a short novel. Not just the "villains" on the variety show... more>> with her, but also the family, the in-laws, the fans, the godparents, the children, the friends.

While reading it I didn't notice, but actually it has a rather large cast for a mere 86 chapters. However, I don't feel like the novel suffered much from having too many characters. <<less

Focus is more on the comedy and slice of life elements as well as character establishment. I'm honestly surprised how well friendships were pulled off as romance was more to the wayside.

The main cast of 6 is memorable, each character is distinct and likeable in their own ways (Ye Lu, my beloved himbo). Guest stars return as recurring characters outside of Weibo posts, which is super refreshing; this actually happens with a lot of side characters instead of tossing in a ton of one-offs, again super refreshing.

The end and extra... more>> chapters are more romance-focused, but there is minimal face-slapping. As much as my petty wants it, it's probably for the better since it'd detract from the other positive points and drag the story.

Overall, it was super fun to read. It got me to cry when it wanted. Some elements were a bit too heavy for me to call this a light and fluffy piece.

Spoiler

Only complaint would be the minimal follow up for the "chained woman" part (the captive grandma). The incident felt tossed to the side in the cast's minds as soon as the police took over. Maybe the author didn't want to weigh down the mood, but the conclusion for it was a bit empty.

[collapse]

The translation reads pretty smoothly, so great job on that! The context/notes don't interrupt the flow, and errors are minimal.

Not sure if I'd reread, but with all the snort-laughs this wrung out of me, I rank this 4.8/5, rounding up to 5 on NU <<less

It's pretty good I guess, some chapters are quite boring. Sometimes, the comedy felt a bit forced. The characters felt a bit too s*upid or childish sometimes. But overall it's a good read, the romance is sweet, the ML is very understanding of the MC's feelings.

ML is very likable, not the overbearing president type that basically throw money around to support the MC, but instead silently support her and let her shine through her own efforts. For example : ... more>>
Spoiler

MC's family tried to get her removed from being cast for a movie, but the ML paid more money to let the director make the best choice, because the MC was the better actor

[collapse]

As a matter of fact, I find the MC to be quite useless and unhelpful in this relationship, she doesn't help with anything in the house which I find a bit ridiculous, everything from cooking and cleaning was done by the ML.

Like the other reviewers here, I really felt sorry for Shang Mu, most of his hatred towards the MC was due to misunderstanding and his father's abuse.
Spoiler

like when the time Shang Mu ignored her when she asked for his help when she was bullied by their cousins, Shang Mu was late for his piano lessons and was impatient to pay attention to her, or the time when he avoided her touch, it was because he had just been beaten by their father and still in pain, etc. It was all the father's fault the sibling's relationship got broken, the father died way too easily.

[collapse]

It's different from Jiang Yi who was a legitimate scum that treats the MC like dirt. The novel didn't show any happy ending for Shang Mu, it's more of an open ending
Spoiler

the MC gave her wedding flower to him and wish that he would find happiness too

[collapse]

Chapter 83-84 is an alternate reality if MC's father died earlier.

Spoiler

Basically in this 2 chapters, the girl Ah Yin (Shang Mu's first love) was the main reason for the siblings to mend their relationship, Shang Mu became a protective older brother and got revenge on the cousins who bullied MC. MC woke up earlier from the plot's control and became free a lot earlier, she also helped Lin Yanyan who was insulted and became friends with her, so Yanyan didn't get insecurities and plastic surgery. She also met Yu Su and complimented his looks which gave him more confidence in himself.

Jiang Yi became an annoying jerk who keeps bothering the MC just like in the main timeline after their engagement were broken off (this is mainly due to his possessiveness, he doesn't love her, he's just felt like she's his belonging that can be thrown away at anytime, so he doesn't like it when she threw him away instead). Chi Yan also got to beat up Jiang Yi personally after finding out the whole reason the MC was so obsessed with him was because he took credit for Chi Yan's kindness towards the MC during childhood. There's no Xiao Mi in this timeline unfortunately.

[collapse]

Chapter 85 is the wedding of the MC and Chi Yan. I really adores the relationship between the MC and her friends from the variety show <<less

Idk what star amount I put down cuz I accidentally bumped it lol. I give this story a solid 4/5 stars ⭐️. I love the main character and the variety show is so funny! However it loses a star for 2 reasons. Reason 1: the relationship between the male and female lead is extremely slooowwww burn, even 62 chapters in there has only been some signs but no confession. I love them together tho and wish it would just happen already! Reason 2: I don’t really care for the scripts... more>> that are used to show her acting prowess. I mean they were good for face slapping the beginning and building character relationships but now they just seem like filler <<less

This is a good read, it’s pretty easy going and I like how we get to the strengths and weaknesses of the main characters while watching her find her way, there’s some parts that I don’t favor but for 99% of it I do love. It’s very funny and there’s many people that you can’t help but love.

So funny and heart-warming. Really like the FL, she's smart with high EQ eventhough she has been through so much in her childhood. The development of the novel is so good, the characters are lovely, the situations are hillarious. Highly recommend for read.

A fun story about a rising celebrity. She realized she's in a novel and received a system but both of those points are not crucial to the plot. She carried herself through the hardship.

After 25 chapters, the ML had appeared but only occasionally and MC only regarded him as a friend. The ogFL and ogML were already facing their downfalls and that's quite fast tbh. Only her tr*shy family was left. I guess the latter half will focus more on romance maybe.

One thing I don't like is how it's dragging... more>> out. The author wanted to make a slow paced relationship and show how MC genuinely falls for the ML. Despite that, the filler is too much and doesn't really add anything to the initial plot. Like, I know she's funny and a great actress, but scenes after scenes about reality shows and everyone complimenting her acting skill completely exhaust me. <<less

The romance is slow. Largely due to the focus on detailing how MC separate from ORI ML. It is described in great detail that I just can't find any discrepancy.

Something that hit me in this story is instead MC background. Her family look perfect on the outside but in fact very rotten on the inside. Most Importantly, her father is the biggest villain of them all. Imo.

Hahahahahahahaha....... my sides hurt 🤣🤣🤣🤣

This novel is H.I.L.A.R.I.O.U.S. Full stop.

Starting from our MC. Her sense of humor is just *absolute perfection*. She can make even the most tensest of situations entertaining af.

... more>> ML may not have a lot of lines but his love for MC seeps through like sunlight through a canopy of trees. He quietly stands by her side and is there for her during her hard times. We all love a supportive king.

Now let me talk about my favourite people, the other participants of the Variety Show. While it was gradual, I really started loving all of them. They all had their chance to shine through the novel and they did so wonderfully. I have a soft spot for the trio consisting of MC, Ye Lu and Lin Yanyan especially. Their antics made me laugh hysterically throughout the novel.

All other side characters excluding the villains were quite endearing as well.

The plot may not have had many surprises even to the point that it was a little generic but the comedy of the novel immensely made up for all the flaws.

Anyway definitely recommend this novel to someone who need something to brighten up their day. <<less
