Chapter 33 The end of the novel
When Assistant Lin and Xia Yiwen arrived at the scene, Sheng Jingchen and Shi Wei had already landed safely on the 34th floor. The firefighters who rescued knew basic first aid knowledge and were bandaging Shi Wei.
The two breathed a sigh of relief. Assistant Lin hurried to Sheng Jingchen's side to report that Xia Duoduo had been caught outside the 32nd floor. Although Xia Duoduo avoided surveillance when she set the fire, the scene of her disguised as a hotel waitress was still captured. The police were now investigating Xia Duoduo.
Xia Yiwen couldn't believe it. When he learned about the fire, he thought it was an accident, but he didn't expect that it was all Xia Duoduo's doing.
Sheng Jingchen looked at Xia Yiwen meaningfully. Xia Yiwen quickly stated that the Xia Family wouldn't protect Xia Duoduo.
The Xia Family had done their best for Xia Duoduo over the years. The moment Xia Duoduo was driven away, they had nothing to do with Xia Duoduo.
Shi Wei was still a little frightened. Under Sheng Jingchen's escort, she went downstairs and ran into Xia Duoduo who was pressed into a police car by the police at the entrance of the Waldorf Hotel.
Xia Duoduo noticed the three people and rushed toward them like crazy, shouting, "Xia Shiwei! It's all your fault! If it weren't for you! How could I have fallen to this point! Why did you come back? Why!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Yiwen slapped Xia Duoduo in the face.
"Duoduo, how did you become like this today!"
Xia Duoduo stiffened all over and was a little sober after being slapped.
"Why am I like this? Xia Yiwen... why are you like this!" Xia Duoduo roared, "Didn't you say that you would only dote and love me, this younger sister? You and Xia Yuanzhou both said that you would treat me well for the rest of your life! Why do you treat me like this!"
"If you didn't secretly frame Shi Wei, you are still the daughter of our Xia Family!" Xia Yiwen roared, "Aren't we good enough to you? You know what you did!"
On the side, Shi Wei coldly watched the ‘sibling’ quarrel.
In the past, if Xia Yiwen stood up for her, she would be happy. But now it seemed that she had no feeling.
It felt like she was watching two strangers quarreling.
It was all in the past.
The moment Xia Duoduo was caught by the police, the system told Shi Wei that her vicious female supporting character mission was finally over.
In the few hours when Xia Duoduo set fire to murder her, Xia Duoduo's resentment toward her had exceeded more than 10,000 points.
Shi Wei's ‘malice’ failed to make Xia Duoduo reach the peak of her life, but instead made her lose the luck of the female lead. From then on, those favors and good luck would no longer follow Xia Duoduo.
"Our quick transmigration bureau had prepared everything for the female lead. In the end, she couldn't uphold the identity of the female lead herself." The system remarked in an indifferent tone, "Host, now you have two choices. One is to take over Xia Duoduo's luck and become the new female lead of the small world. You will be completely favored and your luck will be incomparably good! The other... is to stay the same. We will take back the dislike value system and don't need to be annoying. You are still that Shi Wei."
In the end, becoming the new female lead was exciting.
The system had seen many quick transmigration bureau employees who have performed tasks and they all chose the female supporting character's counterattack script and turned over to become the lead.
However, Shi Wei was firm-set on choosing the latter.
In her opinion, she didn't want to be at the mercy of the novel, whether it was the supporting actress or the female lead.
Depending on the so-called luck of the female lead, she could become the next Xia Duoduo in the end.

In the end, the system bidded goodbye to Shi Wei.
Whether the female lead of the small world reached the peak of her life was the business of the main system. Anyway, the system was successful in shaping the vicious supporting lead and could go on to other tasks.
When they parted, the system gave Shi Wei a gift.
"Host, it was only after Xia Duoduo was catfished did I realize that the words in the novel are decoration. What the truth is, you have to witness it with your own eyes."
That night, Shi Wei had a dream.
She dreamed of... the novel story from Sheng Jingchen's perspective.
In the dream, Sheng Jingchen was abandoned by a wealthy family and isolated because of the death of his parents and the blow from his uncle.
Everyone in the wealthy circle thought that Sheng Jingchen was finished.
Four years ago, Sheng Jingchen appeared in a gorgeous attire, wanting to compete with his uncle. But there were people who despised him everywhere. The Eldest Young Master of the Sheng Family, who was once high and mighty, was now a stray dog who had lost everything.
Even Xia Duoduo, who had a childhood sweetheart relationship with Sheng Jingchen, gave up Sheng Jingchen.
As the top heiress of a wealthy family, the person she will marry in the future must be the best man in the wealthy circle.
Sheng Jingchen had been kicked off the list by her.
And at such a banquet with a contempt-filled atmosphere, Sheng Jingchen met a girl.
Only this girl didn't disdain him. After seeing that he was splashed with a glass of champagne, she took out a tissue to wipe it off his face.
At that time, Shi Wei didn't know who Sheng Jingchen was. She was ridiculed for wearing a dress worth 200 or so yuan. Seeing Sheng Jingchen being ridiculed, there was a feeling of mutual pity.
But Sheng Jingchen remembered her innocent face.
Even the pair of charming fox eyes were full of sincerity.
Shi Wei always thought that all her interactions with Sheng Jingchen were laced with hidden transactions.
But only Sheng Jingchen knew that behind all the transactions was his heartbeat skipping that he dared not say.
In the four years of engagement, he never told Shi Wei about his feelings.
Because he couldn't guarantee whether his uncle would see through his true heart after the contract and take action against Shi Wei.
Maybe it was because he had kept it a secret for so long that even Sheng Jingchen himself forgot what his heartbeat was like at the time.
It wasn't until Shi Wei committed suicide that the thoughts and joy he once had came out like a tide.
Once he turned evil, he took crazy revenge on Xia Duoduo.
There had never been a chasing his wife to the crematorium. There had never been a blackening due to love and desire to separate Xia Duoduo and Ye Tingyue.
From Sheng Jingchen's perspective, it was Shi Wei at the beginning and only Shi Wei in the end.

One month later
In fact, the day after dreaming about Sheng Jingchen, Shi Wei wanted to find Sheng Jingchen, but after knowing the truth of her previous life, she didn't know how to face Sheng Jingchen.
Plus, Ye Wenqing, a strong woman, came to find her and dragged her to Hengcheng early in the morning.
En, what was love? It wasn't as fragrant as career!
Some things should be left to nature~
During the month in Hengcheng, Shi Wei was busy like crazy.
Mainly to ensure the quality of ‘Scientific Cultivation of Immortality’ and the continuity of the actors' emotional state, the director boldly chose to shoot according to the development of the plot. It greatly increased the cost and expenses of producing, supervising, venue coordinating, and personnel.
One should know that in general, when a crew did shooting, the scenes in the same venue were shot together. It could save costs, but it will cause the problem of emotional discontinuity of the actors.
The crew of ‘Scientific Cultivation of Immortality’ chose to focus on the quality of the work.
Shi Wei had been coordinating the venue issues with the producer during this period. After a period of busyness at the beginning, a month had passed in a blink of an eye.
Now, it was the time when she committed suicide in the novel.
It was at this time that Shengshi Group knew that Shi Wei and Ye Yu had intercourse. In order to keep the cooperation with Xia and Ye, the board of directors forced Sheng Jingchen and Shi Wei to break off the engagement.
When Shi Wei first dreamed about this, she really thought that Sheng Jingchen agreed to break off the engagement with her.
But in the dream that the system gave her when it left last time, she realized that the truth wasn't like this.
Suddenly, she missed Sheng Jingchen a little.
She opened the window. Night had fallen and the stars were twinkling.
Shi Wei sat alone on the balcony, drinking a little wine.
Usually at this time, Sheng Jingchen would video call her.
Since the first day she came to Hengcheng, Sheng Jingchen would call her every night. In the past two days, Sheng Jingchen went abroad to acquire a technology company. There was a time difference between the two and he was too busy, so received no attention for a while.
But this whole month had made Shi Wei develop a habit. The sudden change made her a little irked.
Forget it, work then! Career was the most important!
Chen Wei and Zhuge Kaorou added two pages of the script cover according to the situation of the actors on the scene. Since she had free time, she could read the cover!
But as she read, Shi Wei felt a little hungry.
Oh, she was craving delicious food. She wanted to eat Michelin food at Sheng Jingchen's expense.
Unfortunately, there was no Sheng Jingchen. Neither was there Michelin. After missing the gourmet and handsome guy for two seconds, Shi Wei turned on her phone and frankly ordered takeout.
Don't know if there were fewer people ordering during this period, the delivery rider actually called her within ten minutes.
But... because the hotel elevator was under renovation, the rider didn't have time to deliver it. So Shi Wei could only go downstairs to get it herself.
It was a five-story building, fortunately, not too high.
When she got downstairs, she found that the hotel lobby was actually dark for once.
Was there a power outage?
Shi Wei was a little confused.
The services of these hotels in Hengcheng weren't up to scratch. Due to the fact that there were many crews shooting in Hengcheng and fear of having no customers, the hotel room prices were expensive despite the services being terrible.
Shi Wei got used to it. Based on the photos sent by the rider on her phone, she sought the takeaway cabinet at the entrance of the hotel.
Only today, it was dark outside the hotel. At first glance, there was nothing but a pale moon.
It was creepy.
The cold autumn wind blew. Shi Wei felt a little cold. She crossed her arms and huddled as she searched takeaway.
"Cabinet No. 24, cabinet No. 24..."
She was entering the last number of her mobile phone and heard a click. Cabinet No. 24 didn't light up. However, the moment she entered the password, a dazzling light suddenly lit up behind her, illuminating the entire hotel square as if it were daytime.
Shi Wei blankly turned around, slowly walked out of the small space of the takeaway cabinet, and the scenery in front of her suddenly became clear.
She saw that the originally dark square in front of the hotel had been decorated beautifully at some unknown time.
Countless colorful balls and flower clusters made the ordinary square in front look like a dream.
And Sheng Jingchen was standing in this dream.
-
Shi Wei didn't remember how that day ended.
She forgot why the elevator that was obviously out of power was repaired. Nor did she remember how Sheng Jingchen carried her back to the room.
Maybe it was too shocking and unexpected at the time, Shi Wei only remembered the words Sheng Jingchen said to her amidst the flowers,
"Shi Wei, let's get married!"
Also in disbelief, she answered with the word in her heart,
"——Yes."
Thank you for this nice story
