A Hypocritical Villainess? No, I'm the First Love of All Living Beings

[One-on-one romance, both leads pure, reborn political intrigue, a seemingly virtuous villainess]

[The heroine is a true villainess: a gorgeous, cunning, scheming beauty who seduces and manipulates others without hesitation.]

Cui Jiaoyue, the legitimate daughter of the Cui clan, ladles out porridge in plain silk, her brows lowered with the compassion of a bodhisattva. But who knows that this gentle facade is a blade forged from the blood feud of her past life? She will tear away the aristocratic clans’ mask of virtue and lay their bloodstained accounts bare in the sunlight. Xie Yan, the regent of the northern frontier whose eyes redden when he kills, catches her stumbling scheme amid the Lantern Festival crowds. As his fingertips brush the bloodstain on her skirt, he laughs softly: “You’ve dirtied your dress, A Yue.”

----“A bodhisattva lowers her eyes to cut away the world’s evil. I’m only giving them a taste of sweetness before they die with this bowl of porridge.”

----“Instead of incense money for the Cui clan, why not use it as blood money to buy the dead back their lives? Look at the names written in blood in this ledger. Is it enough to buy your entire family a place in the Book of Rebirth?”

(A satisfying read, with both leads pure.)

(She just does whatever she wants with men! It’s so satisfying.)

The heroine follows her desires, so there may be flirtation and intimate moments. Read on if you’re okay with that.
