After the Stand-In Author Faked Her Death, the Male Lead Went Mad

[On the Art of Repeatedly Switching Sides to Tame a Mad Dog!]

[Transmigrate into a book + pure love on both sides + redemption + fake substitute trope + face-slapping + descent into darkness]

Shen Quanquan wrote a romance novel with a domineering male lead for a female audience, only to be scolded by countless authors for being worse than a dry ledger.

Readers everywhere: [A love story without twists is more lifeless than scattered sand!] [Way too male-centered. I can't even.]

So Shen Quanquan rolled up her sleeves and rewrote the story from top to bottom. Jing Zhou, the male lead who'd had it easy all his life, ended up worse off than the second male lead, more disposable than a cannon-fodder character, and even lost his wife to another man. Readers wept buckets and cursed the unscrupulous author for dumping dog blood everywhere.

#The harder the readers cry, the happier the author is!

At the end of the story, Shen Quanquan typed away: [The End.]

System: Congratulations, author of a trashy novel! You've been bound to the Dog-Blood Dilution System!

Author: What?! She spat out a mouthful of blood three meters away.

System: Your rewrite has an excessively high dog-blood content. You must enter the story and revise it firsthand.

Special scene:

Author: My legs are worn out, my hands are broken, but at least it was all worth it. The dog-blood level is now zero, the System shows the pure-love index is through the roof, and I'm happily going home.

The once-improved, devoted, family-loving, and healthy male lead is back to square one. Madly in love, obsessive and unhinged, he asks: You promised you wouldn't leave me, didn't you?

Author: ??? No way!!

[Obsessively devoted, overwhelmingly powerful male lead X bright, sharp-tongued, clever female lead]

[The male lead loves only Shen Quanquan from beginning to end. Fake substitute! Fake substitute! Fake substitute! Important things must be said three times!]
