Synopsis

[The female lead isn't all-powerful, and this is not a story about a strong female lead!!!]

[The leads are only master and disciple. There will be no romance between them. This isn't a mindless power fantasy, and there are plot twists. Please don't complain if it's not your thing~]

[The female lead is capable, but her heart is set on a life among mountains and rivers, so at first she only wants to keep a low profile and lie flat. Please stop asking!!!]

Mu Yunsheng is born as the twin younger sister of the original heroine in a doted-on heroine story. All she wants is to keep her head down in a world full of danger and live a quiet, peaceful life to old age. To that end, from the moment she was born, she diligently pretended to be a dull, slow-witted baby.

But at her first-birthday grab ceremony, her hand slipped, and she grabbed the hem of Song Yanchen's robe. He was the powerful regent, who would one day become a villain!

The man looked down at the little bundle at his feet, the corner of his lips curling into a dangerous smile.

“This little thing is interesting.”

From then on, Mu Yunsheng's plans to lie flat were completely derailed.

She played dumb, and he pushed her to show her intelligence. She tried to stay out of the world, and he drew her into its schemes. Everyone laughed at the regent for taking on a foolish disciple and wasting his efforts.

Only Mu Yunsheng knew how keen her master's gaze was, as if he had already seen through everything.

Until, at a palace banquet, she revealed her true capabilities to protect her sister. Song Yanchen stroked the top of her head, his voice low.

“Can't keep pretending?”

What unsettled her even more was that this villainous master, whose fate seemed so unfair, apparently didn't want her to be merely his disciple. Pointing to the throne, he asked her:

“Ah Sheng, do you want it?”

Mu Yunsheng: “??!” Master, did you pick up the wrong script? You're supposed to destroy the empire, aren't you?!

"A little monster who plays the pig to eat the tiger vs. a cold-faced master who plans every step"

Are There Really No High-Quality Women’s Fiction Books Anymore?

Looking for books similar to "Quick Transmigration: The Charming Beauty of a Villainous Cannon Fodder". I’m so frustrated.

I absolutely adore this kind of family that doesn't care about personal gain, only about kinship!!! Please don't add any romantic pairings, just a pure master-disciple relationship. It could also be developed into a political intrigue story (though it might be difficult to write). (ºº) So, author, please give me more days of sex!!!

The interactions between the female lead, Bao Bao, who hides her talents, and her master, who sees through her, are incredibly cute and funny. Bao Bao's feelings for her family and friends are also very nice. I hope there's no romantic pairing! Finally, I hope Xiao Song's parents can be exonerated soon!

So far, there haven't been any major flaws. The female lead's concealment of her talents has been explained, and the author has written very well. This is a story of redemption between a master and his disciple. Novels shouldn't only feature romantic love; a master is also like a father, and his love is as steadfast as a mountain.

The character development is particularly outstanding. Mu Yunsheng is not a traditional strong woman; she is intelligent but unambitious, desiring only a carefree life amidst nature. This "unconventional" setting allows the story to avoid clichéd power struggles or romantic entanglements.

It's really good! The first half was all about the master-disciple relationship (it was quite ambiguous at times), but as the female lead matured, and seeing the Regent's protection and scheming towards her made me want to spit out my initial thoughts. Who says there can't be a pure master-disciple relationship?

It's a great read. Having read so many romance novels, this one without a main couple feels refreshing. It shows the female lead's gradual growth, and the master's change in attitude towards her, culminating in his protection, is very well-developed. Overall, it was a very enjoyable read. The only downside is the infrequent updates.

Fantastic! Every character is vivid and lifelike, and the pacing is just right. It's not a clichéd simple romance, but a battle of power and strategy. The female lead's childlike identity ironically provides the male lead with a glimmer of hope for revenge. I'm really looking forward to seeing the male and female leads in the future. There's just too little content! Keep up the good work, author!

I finally finished watching it after two days! It's so good! 😢😢😢 From the time she was one year old, when she began to have ambitions, he was both her mentor and father figure, accompanying her for over 40 years, always her strongest support. If she didn't want to, he would forever remain her apprentice, always protecting and supporting her.

It's so good! I started reading it last night and couldn't stop watching all night. I even cried while reading, I was so moved! This morning at 8 am I was starving and couldn't concentrate at all. I couldn't remember a single move in my martial arts class. Author, you owe me this, so make up for it with extra chapters! 😆 [I highly recommend it too][I highly recommend it too][I highly recommend it too]

This is amazing! There's no better alternative online. It's so satisfying, I absolutely love watching it. Waaaaah! The thing that makes me feel uneasy is needing to catch up on every episode. It's just so good, I can't resist watching it again! 😘🥰🥰
