Since the character's identity cannot be altered, please keep your cross-dressing secret tightly under wraps in front of the male lead. PS: The last guy who pretended to be a peerless beauty to get close to the male lead for profit was chopped into eight pieces. You can count them yourself.* Xia Ying, scared stiff: *Eek, I’ll keep it hidden! Starting today, I’m the number one belle of Xia City!* Originally, he thought he could perfectly avoid conflicts with the male lead by relying on the plot and successfully stay on the sidelines. But who knew Xia Ying’s inner simp would emerge, utterly captivated by the male lead Han Zheng’s god-tier beauty? He defects to the male lead’s fan club and becomes the most hyperactive cheerleader.
