Chapter 1

Huo Wu forgot her lines again. 

While she was facing the sunny and handsome second male lead for the third time. The director finally couldn't help but throw down the clapper board he was holding and snorted, "Let's take a break for five minutes and then we'll film the female lead's scenes first."

It was December and already in the middle of the cold winter but Huo Wu was only wearing a thin costume. After the director had yelled for a break, the cold wind blew, causing Huo Wu to subconsciously shrink her neck and her arms to hug herself. 

She lowered her eyes, not daring to look at the director's ugly expression. 

The second male lead walked towards her in a few steps, kindly handed her a thick coat and asked with concern, "Did you not sleep well?"

Although Huo Wu was only a 18th line actress and was merely playing the role of the third female lead in a third-rate internet drama, she was normally very accountable and responsible towards her work. She had good knowledge of the script and a situation unlike today, where she was cut three times in a row, had never happened before. 

Huo Wu took the coat from the second male lead's hands and quietly thanked him. 

Hearing his words, she blinked and nodded her head. 

She knew that her state today wasn't good but it wasn't because of the reason provided by the second male lead.

As for the real reason, she was too embarrassed to say it. 

After she had finished reading through her lines last night she was unable to sleep since she had drunk a little too much coffee and to pass the time, she decided to find a novel online to read.

Coincidentally, the book she clicked on was a romance novel called "Forced Love" where the supporting female lead had the same name as her. Originally she was planning on roughly reading through the novel for half an hour before going to bed when she felt sleepy. But after reading a little bit, she became engrossed in the plot, forgot the time, and ended up pulling an all-nighter.

The supporting female lead in the book was originally the child of a poor family but 18 years ago, the nurse in the hospital made a mistake and swapped her and the daughter of a wealthy family. Thus, she ended up having a life that didn't actually belong to her. 

But there would always be a day when the truth would be revealed. After an accident 18 years later, the fact that the supporting female lead wasn't the real daughter of the Huo family was exposed to the world and afterwards, her life turned upside down. 

Thinking about the end that the supporting female lead came to, Huo Wu softly sighed. Even though the supporting female lead was arrogant, she wasn't a bad person at heart and the incident in the past wasn't her fault. 

If one were to analyse the plot, neither the female lead nor the supporting female lead were at fault. It was the fault of those who worked within the hospital that the babies were swapped. However the female lead placed all the blame on the supporting female lead thinking that the supporting female lead had stolen her 18 years of happiness that should have belonged to her and hereby started to retaliate against her. 

After reading about what happened to the supporting female lead, Huo Wu threw the book aside. 

Although Huo Wu knew that this story wasn't about her life, she couldn't help but feel that her heart was heavy. Maybe it was because she had the same name as the supporting female lead that she felt like this afterwards but regardless, she was unable to do anything with enthusiasm. 

For the whole night, and including this morning, her mood was affected by the novel so when she was filming her scene she ended up repeatedly making mistakes. 

   "You should rest early after work today, your complexion doesn't look too good."

Huo Wu and the second male lead weren't particularly friendly and only met because they were both filming this period drama for the internet. Although he was much more popular than her, Huo Wu didn't have any intention on deepening their relationship and only lightly nodded her head. 

After the 5 minute break, the female lead's scenes were pushed forward. Huo Wu stood at the side and waited quietly.

After four hours passed and it was finally her turn again. 

The plot for this scene required the third female lead to jump off a cliff in the name of love and she had to use a wire. 

Although Huo Wu had always lingered about the 18th line, she had still filmed several dramas and had used wires before. 

Cliff jumping scenes required a lot from actors. The actor's movements couldn't be stiff and even though they were in midair, they still had to maintain a sense of beauty.

It was particularly so for this kind of sad scene, the clothes should be swirling through the air, and the corner of the eye needed to produce a sparkling teardrop; beautiful and dreamlike. 

As Huo Wu was suspended in the air she didn't even really need to stir up any emotions since her eye produced tears as a physiological response to the cold wind. 

The tip of her nose also turned red from the wind so she did appear to exude a certain degree of sadness. 

Just as she had prepared her posture, a bunch of shouts and screams sounded from below. 

   "Oh no! The wire's broken!"

   "Hurry up! Grab the air cushions"

   "Quick! Make an emergency call."

Huo Wu hadn't yet realised what had happened but in the next second, her body started to fall directly towards the ground that was more than ten metres away.
