The Vicious Female Side Character's Diary

Ruan Qingtian is, in the eyes of others, a willful, spoiled, overbearing heiress. Showered with her family's love since childhood, she's blunt and impulsive, wears her heart on her sleeve, and refuses to suffer even the slightest indignity. Once, she caught her boyfriend entangled with another woman. Without asking what had happened, she let her pride and anger take over and struck him in public, earning a reputation for jealousy and bullying. The sincere love she poured into him turned out to be nothing but an absurd con: her boyfriend had secretly been two-timing her, scheming to have the best of both worlds. When the truth finally came to light, a violent confrontation erupted, and Ruan Qingtian unexpectedly transmigrated into the fictional Great Xun Dynasty, becoming the disgraced former empress whom everyone at court despised and cursed. Born in a brothel, the original owner concealed patience and cunning beneath her alluring charm. To avenge her family's blood feud, she had entered the palace of her own accord and stirred up turmoil in the court and harem, only to bear a lifetime of infamy and meet her end in the Cold Palace, where she was sentenced to death. Reborn in another world and facing certain death, with a white silk noose hanging before her, Ruan Qingtian refuses to accept her fate. In her modern life, she was bold and brash, impulsive, and unreasonable, charging ahead on sheer heiress temper. But once trapped in the palace, where danger lurks at every turn, she sheds her youthful recklessness and gradually learns to conceal her edge, exercise patience, yield when necessary, and weigh the costs and benefits. In the midst of desperation, she grows and transforms at remarkable speed.
