*Plop* *Plop*
A heavy wooden brush dabbed heavily twice, making an ugly blob imprint on two small squares drawn neatly on a large writing paper. The petite woman holding the brush snickered as her shoulders softly went up and down. Then she suddenly sighed and dropped the wooden brush onto the table, making a small thump.
She sighed once more. "Li Su Ming ah….Li Su Ming, why is your life so hard!" No matter how much she wanted to treat this as a joke orchestrated by the heavens, she came back to reality.
She stared at the paper in front of her. It had 90 small squares, all numbered 1 through 90 right smack in the center. Only the first two squares 1 and 2 were marked off. "Only 88 more days to go. Ye Su Su, you got this!" She folded the piece of paper and tucked it away in the small wooden box next to her.
Then she stretched her hand out and observed her pale white skin. "Li Su Ming…even though you are the cannon fodder, you indeed did live lavishly. No sun spots and perfect skin. If you lived in my world, you would be a first grade beauty. Even out-beating Fan Bing Bning." Ye Su Su admired her new body.
The body....was clearly a rich miss's. To be exact, it was the body of the character she was to play.
Ye Su Su, a struggling actress in the 20th century had somehow gone into the drama script she was contracted to play. Ye Su Su had been struggling to make a breakthrough for 5 long years; finally she received a call from the director. Thinking she was going to get the female lead role of Li Fei Fei, she smiled from ear to ear. Only to be told she would be playing Li Su Ming the female villain.
Su Su wasn't too thrilled but a job was a job. So she signed the contract. When she read the script, she couldn't believe it. She would rather starve then to play this role, she first thought. But then she remembered her late rent payment and suddenly told herself the script was amazing. Who was she kidding, she hated the script with a passion. Who in the world would write such a dumb script, she thought. Even she knew it was going to be a flop.
Su Su was playing the female lead Li Fei Fei's younger sister, the spoiled and selfish Li Su Ming who would eventually die a terrible death. She hung herself in an attempt to marry Feng Meng Hao, the young, talented General from some hundred years ago. Su Su couldn't remember exactly what time period or dynasty this script was written in.
Regardless, General Feng was regarded as one of the most handsome men in the country. His record was also astonishing. Feng Meng Hao had become a general at the age of 18 after winning a battle against the neighboring county. It wasn't a surprise as his family's 9 generations consisted of generals.
Li Su Ming had thought she would get to marry him as the emperor decreed he would marry one of the daughters of Prime Minister Li. Who knew he would say he wanted to marry Li Fei Fei after they had two random encounters. Li Fei Fei was the exact opposite of Li Su Ming. She was kind, thoughtful and cared about others. She had always given in to Li Su Ming in everything.
Who knew Feng Meng Hao would refuse to marry Li Su Ming. Seeing her sister heartbroken, Li Fei Fei told General Feng she would not marry him. In the end, he told her he would only marry Li Su Ming if he also married Li Fei Fei. At the end of the day, to make her sister happy Li Fei Fei agreed.
The two were of equal status when they married Feng Meng Hao but who knew Li Su Ming would frame Li Fei Fei time after time. Even when Li Fei Fei knew, she forgave Li Su Ming. Only after Feng Meng Hao had enough of her nonsense did he finally sentence her to become a nun for life. Li Su Ming refused, ultimately hanging herself.
Su Su at that time when she was reading the script couldn't believe there was such a person who would write such a script. She was thankful she did not play Li Fei Fei. She would die annoyed! No person in their right mind could be that pure in real life, Su Su had thought.
Who knew at the first shoot, she would trip on her damn skirt and fall down the long concrete stairs. When she woke up, she was suddenly Li Su Ming.
