Summary:
Ruan Tian had been in love with Shen Shu for a long time. She pursued him fiercely while they were young, and was crazy for his love.

Ruan Tian always knew that Shen Shu still had a white moonlight inside his heart, but she was still willing to be the disposable stand-in if it meant she could be by his side.

However, no matter how hard she tried, she was always just an unwanted and scheming white lotus girl in Shen Shu’s eyes.

She was a notorious actress who lingered down near the eighteenth tier of the entertainment industry.

Then, in their second year of marriage, Ruan Tian was hit on the head and was surprised to realize that her life was a novel, and she was only the girl the domineering CEO was using as a substitute.

She was just an insignificant stepping stone in the story for Shen Shu and his white moonlight. A tool that would be used up until there was nothing left but a miserable smear of blood.

Thoroughly sobered by this realization, Ruan Tian hurriedly filed for divorce and didn’t hesitate to kick Shen Shu to the curb.

Review:
The story is normal, like usual villain counterattack story. I felt MC is a bit mary sue despite she hate OFL mary sue halo. MC hit her head and she saw her life as a novel, she was the supporting character. All the men love her twin sister and disdain her. She married OML due to accident. MC felt she is unlucky, she was trafficked when 3 yo, she only went to orphanage on 5 yo then got adopted but abandoned again. Her family picked her up when she was 15 or 14 but use her as OFL blood tank and never care about herself. After MC realize the novel plot, I feel like suddenly everything works for her. Like the halo move to her. OML ask a divorce, she agreed directly, making OML uncomfortable then began to like her. MC work as actress, the other male lead who at first despised her and mocking her suddenly realize her effort and appreciate her. They have known MC from high school and bullied her, MC already married to ML for 2 years and she worked as actress for 3 years but only now they noticed MC goodness with MC little effort.... Then they all felt regret, asking why they despise MC, why they never knew her. It is on repeat until the end. ML is the one who bullied MC the most on highschool, because he love MC. He tried to make OML hate MC and making MC stop loving OML, he want MC to submit to him without realizing that he hurt MC the most. Then near the end MC suddenly dream her first time meeting ML and realize that she never noticed ML because of her obsession with OML, so she began liking ML.... (A big turn off point).
Despite all the men mocking MC and bullied her, MC only curse them but never took revenge. She only faceslap the women who scheme her... That's why MC is a bit mary sue.
