Due to a System malfunction, Yu Qiuqiu transmigrated into a harem xianxia novel titled *When Flowers Meet Joy*.
It tells the story of the heroine, Hua Jianxi, a swordsmanship prodigy who has a delicate, soft constitution, a gentle and quiet personality, and a fragile, helpless air that makes people want to “cherish” her fiercely. She wins over admirers along the way, eventually finds love with the hero, Pei Yu, and helps him avenge his family’s slaughter. Together, they save the world.
Unfortunately, Yu Qiuqiu became the vicious, universally hated supporting villainess who shares her name. Desperate for the male supporting character’s love, she does all sorts of terrible things. Midway through the novel, the protagonist’s group deliberately abandons her to the villain, and she dies with a parasite devouring her heart. Yu Qiuqiu can only ask: System, is it really ethical to grab the wrong person and run?! The worst part is, she only read half the book and has no idea what happens next! Trembling with fear, Yu Qiuqiu can only try her best to raise the protagonist’s group’s favorability and give the hero opportunities, hoping he’ll defeat the villain before she’s written out.
But later...
Pei Yu gazed at the girl before him, his eyes concealing a bone-deep obsession. The wind lifted her long hair and brushed it across his fingertips. His throat bobbed. “Qiuqiu, all I ask is that you stay.”
