Background / History

Before transmigrating, Su Tangtang was an avid celebrity-gossip reader with accounts on major entertainment forums. After rejecting a confession from her school’s richest young heir, she laughed herself to death and entered a novel. Her new body belonged to a minor character with the same name and appearance, whose life had no connection to the novel’s male and female leads 1.

The original Su Tangtang was a scandal-plagued, debt-ridden actress known for chasing publicity. The transmigrated Tangtang inherits her memories but wants to avoid her romantic and financial mistakes, earn money, and eventually retire 1.

According to the history Tangtang shares with Du Lanxi, the original owner’s adoptive parents died in a fire. Mu Qing’s family subsequently helped care for her, and Mu Qing defended her against accusations that she had caused their deaths. This gratitude helped explain her attachment to him and her financial support. Tangtang later tells Du that a vivid dream revealed Mu Qing had caused the fire; the supplied chapters do not establish that accusation through independent evidence 33.

After discovering that she had lent Mu Qing 50 million yuan, Tangtang preserves their messages and transfer records, demands repayment within three days, and threatens legal action. She blocks his calls and declares that she has moved on from him 23 24 33.

Appearance

Su Tangtang retains the same face she had in her original world. Her appearance repeatedly leaves other characters momentarily speechless, including Qiao Yufan and the investors at a drama dinner 1 34.

• Eyes: Alluring and dewy, with upward-tilting outer corners 1.
• Eyelashes: Long and clearly visible even in close-up livestream footage 1 21.
• Bare-faced appearance: Removing her makeup on camera impresses viewers and softens some of Chen Sinian’s fans toward her 21.
• Smile: Frequently presents a sweet, composed smile despite her much sharper internal commentary 2 4.

Personality

Tangtang’s polite outward behavior contrasts with a blunt, profane, and often sexually curious inner voice. She smiles, follows instructions, and tries to stay unobtrusive while privately mocking the show’s staged romantic moments. Because she does not know her thoughts are audible, she believes she is successfully concealing her opinions 4 15 18.

Money and personal comfort guide many of her decisions. She worries that controversy will lead to deductions from her pay, accepts paid on-camera interaction with Chen Sinian, and treats romance-show letters as opportunities to recover a debt or imagine receiving a lucrative breakup offer. Food and sleep regularly take priority over continuing a scandal 20 21 25 29 30.

Her enthusiasm for gossip does not prevent her from recognizing cruelty. She condemns wasted food, becomes concerned about He Pijiu’s abused daughter, and actively tries to reach Ye Wenxuan when she learns the girl is in danger. She also shows loyalty toward Du Lanxi, sharing a major payment and proposing that they establish a studio together 13 37 47 48.

Abilities & Skills

Gossip Book

Tangtang possesses a book in her mind that can search for gossip about people in the novel’s world. She discovers it upon meeting Qiao Yufan and immediately begins using it to investigate the show’s guests 1 3.

• Hidden information: Reveals concealed relationships, financial misconduct, family deception, and abuse 8 13 35 47.
• Future events: Describes outcomes that have not yet occurred, including Bai Zhitao’s eventual tax scandal 34.
• Changing outcomes: Tangtang notices that Xiao Ziyao finds his childhood sweetheart a year earlier than the book originally indicated 19.
• Actionable details: Supplies information such as the location of an endangered girl, the existence of incriminating footage, and Liu Fangbo’s phone passcode 47 48.
• Documented exception: Searches return no information about Gu Yeting. Tangtang suspects a bug, but no explanation is provided 45.

Audible Inner Thoughts

Entertainment-industry insiders can hear Tangtang’s thoughts without her speaking. She remains unaware of this, even as other characters use her revelations to investigate scandals or intervene in dangerous situations 1 34 48.

• Audience restriction: Some production staff can hear her while others cannot. Liu Fangbo, an acting teacher without outside industry involvement, cannot hear her 48.
• Range: Her thoughts can reach people outside her room and remain faintly audible to An Ruzhi after An retreats upstairs 3 46.
• Speech obstruction: Attempts to tell Tangtang directly about the phenomenon—or confront her over an unspoken revelation—can leave listeners unable to finish speaking 3 34.
• No immunity from the book’s exception: Gu Yeting can hear her thoughts despite being unsearchable in the gossip book 45 46.
• Unintentional influence: She does not deliberately broadcast information; listeners often act before she can warn them aloud 13 14.

Practical Skills

• Cooking: Prepares dumplings for the group and later cooks noodles when breakfast has not been provided 22 50.
• Skiing: Confident enough to complete repeated downhill runs while Chen Sinian struggles, though showing off leads her to collide with another skier 25 26 27.
• Evidence preservation: Screenshots messages, profiles, and banking records before demanding that Mu Qing repay her 24.
• Improvisation: Invents a plausible connection to Ye Wenxuan’s mother to approach the frightened girl without immediately exposing the group’s suspicions 48.
• Academic achievement: Scored 667 on the college entrance examination and produces a screenshot during a show game 39.

Equipment / Items

• Smartphone: Used for Weibo tasks, communications with Du Lanxi, researching Gu Yeting, and preserving evidence against Mu Qing 24 27 49.
• Designer handbag: An expensive gift from An Ruzhi. Tangtang initially refuses it, then accepts after An insists that it expresses genuine affection 38.

Relationships

• Du Lanxi — Manager and trusted protector. Du has shielded her from an exploitative company executive; Tangtang follows her professional judgment, gives her 30% of Chen Sinian’s payment, and proposes opening a studio together 32 37.
• Chen Sinian — Paid on-screen partner, professional supporter, and friend. He offers three million yuan for greater interaction on the show and recommends her for a drama role. He also brings her to a dinner intending to use her thoughts to expose Bai Zhitao’s tax evasion. Tangtang treats him as a sponsor and “one of her girls,” rather than a romantic prospect 25 32 33 36 37.
• An Ruzhi — Fellow contestant, roommate, and admirer. Initially drawn to Tangtang’s gossip and beauty, An becomes attracted to her. Tangtang remains unaware of that attraction and sometimes mistakes An’s reactions for jealousy over Chen Sinian 11 21 29 38.
• Xu Yuntong — Friendly fellow contestant who offers to switch rooms, chooses Tangtang as a shopping companion, and shares An Ruzhi’s enjoyment of her gossip 4 8 22.
• Qiao Yufan — Fellow contestant and frequent target of her teasing. He initially welcomes her to the show, becomes frustrated by revelations about himself, and later helps her approach Liu Fangbo and Ye Wenxuan 1 22 47 48.
• Xiao Ziyao — Fellow contestant whose search for his childhood sweetheart is accelerated by Tangtang’s thoughts. He publicly clears her of responsibility for his departure, promises to repay her 500 yuan, and mobilizes his fans to support her Weibo post 14 23 29.
• Qi Zhaoyi — Fellow contestant and gossip subject. Tangtang writes him a letter while wondering whether his mother might offer her money to stay away from him 18 29.
• Xue Ruyin — Antagonistic fellow contestant. Tangtang distrusts her carefully maintained sweet persona and openly challenges her performative breakfast etiquette. Xue resents her revelations and growing popularity 4 22 29.
• Liao Xuliang — Fellow contestant whose behavior and family secrets become recurring gossip subjects. He interprets Tangtang’s money jokes as an opportunity to proposition her, while she repeatedly criticizes his unwillingness to work 11 19 40.
• Mu Qing — The original owner’s former romantic fixation and the recipient of 50 million yuan in loans. Tangtang rejects him, demands repayment, and accuses him of causing her adoptive parents’ fatal fire 24 33.
• Gu Yeting — Mysterious contestant whose inaccessible information and good looks attract her attention. He sends her a letter praising her eyes and becomes visibly flustered around her 45 49 50.
• He Pijiu — Dating-show director. Her thoughts help him find his abused biological daughter; he later discreetly uses her information to organize the intervention at Liu Fangbo’s villa 13 38 47.
• Ye Wenxuan — An endangered young woman Tangtang helps reach and protect. Her revelations enable the group to secure evidence against Liu Fangbo and avert Ye’s previously predicted tragic future 48 50.
