Dream of the Red Chamber: I Start by Healing Lin Ruhai

Wu Tian wakes up one day to a transmigration starter pack: he’s become Lin Jinyu, Lin Daiyu’s younger brother in the world of Dream of the Red Chamber. The good news: He’s bound to the [Guardian System], and the beginner’s gift gives him a cheat-level start: Herculean strength, mastery of medicine, and the literary genius of Wenquxing. He’s set up to win at life. The bad news: Someone has poisoned his home, his father is gravely ill, his sister is weeping, and the Jia family’s death warrant comes knocking every few days. Lin Jinyu: “...Is this a hell-difficulty start? System, can I switch to a beginner village?” System: “Dear user, you’re bound to Lin Daiyu. Your goal is to protect her and the Lin family! Keep it up, you can do it!” Fine. For my delicate, lovable little Lin, I’ll give it everything I’ve got! From that day on, Yangzhou’s whole vibe changes: By day, the frail young beauty is a literary prodigy at the academy. By night, he’s a demon king in the nightmares of the salt merchants, saving his father with silver needles in one hand and beating up salt merchants with iron fists in the other. After arriving in the capital, Baoyu asks him, “Does your sister have a jade?” Lin Jinyu answers with a resounding slap: “What kind of lousy rock is that? You think you can scare my sister with it? Keep running your mouth and I’ll beat you every time I see you!” The Rongguo House erupts: How is this kid from the Lin family even wilder than the Monkey King?! Grandmother Jia: “He’s your cousin!” Lin Jinyu: “This bear of a cousin is exactly who I’m hitting!” Madam Wang: “My son!” Lin Jinyu: “My sister! Anyone who lays a hand on her will have me to answer to!”
