Synopsis

[Transmigrate into a book: Apocalypse | Obsessive devotion and redemption | Romantic weirdness | Devoted couple, sweet romance]

[Gentle, socially anxious girl ❌ Brooding, sinister villain]

After staying up all night writing a paper and fainting, Tang Yao opened her eyes to discover she had transmigrated into a book as the villain’s vicious ex-wife in a story about supernatural horrors returning to the world.

As a disposable supporting character who wouldn’t survive three chapters, she was greedy, stupid, and mean. When the villain was still an aloof, untouchable beauty, she schemed and seduced her way into marrying him. But as soon as his company went bankrupt, she became a completely different person. She complained about her lot in life all day, verbally abused him, wouldn’t let him rest, and whipped him every night to vent her anger.

Then, after secretly gambling herself into enormous debt, she ran away, leaving the villain alone to have one of his legs hacked off by debt collectors.

With no money for a hospital, the villain hid in a rented room, where his infected wound killed him.

Consumed by such deep resentment that he came back as a ruthless supernatural killer, his first target for revenge was the vicious ex-wife he hated most!

After transmigrating into the book, Tang Yao decided to treat the villain well so she could stay alive, only to discover she had arrived too late in the story.

Here was the situation:

The original owner had already worked the poor villain to the bone and tormented him until he was barely recognizable. She was also deep in debt to loan sharks and planning to flee overnight with her suitcase.

Tang Yao was so frightened her scalp prickled.

She immediately bought a ticket for the same train and fled with the young villain, who had just come home from hauling bricks at a construction site and had still remembered to buy her fresh strawberries.

When the author’s hand intervened, the villain was pulled back into the original plot. Tang Yao stayed by his side through everything, even nearly getting killed by a supernatural horror while searching for medicine for him.

Later, the ruthless killer from the book was transformed under her care into a pretty, cunning little pretty boy. Every day, once he’d eaten his fill, he would tug at her sleeve and ask:

“Yaoyao, who do you love most?”

Damn, Does Tomato Novel Really Have No Brooding Puppy Boys, Male-Obsessed Types, or Ghostly Men!?

A “heavy-love” guy is a man whose feelings are overwhelmingly intense, to an extreme degree. It’s a little different from a yandere. Please don’t recommend stories about devoted wives, okay? Okay.

Recommendations for a Sunny Female Lead and a Brooding, Ghostlike Male Lead!!!

Looking for stories like "Open Your Eyes! Reborn as a Brooding Dead Husband in His Youth". I want a resilient, warm, sunshine-like heroine who speaks her mind. She can be sweet and delicate, but still strong-willed. The male lead should be a little yandere, with a dark, brooding ghostly vibe. He should love her so much he goes mad and would do anything for her.

I've finished reading over fifty chapters. I hope the development of the romance between the male and female leads will be better for the female lead later on. She did a lot of the work in the beginning, and while the male lead is nice and loves to act cute, it's a mix of genuine and feigned affection, which I still find a bit off. I hope he'll be more sincere and humble later on.

So good~ So delicious 😋 The male lead is a blond, arrogant, and gloomy ghost, while the female lead is cute but has 1000 points of power—a pure contrast! And the female lead isn't a naive girl; she's socially awkward, not stupid. The couple acted it out in the early stages 😜 Then, our arrogant male lead, under the female lead's constant care, unconsciously falls in love~ Uh oh, it's that…

In post-apocalyptic settings, if the female lead is portrayed as naive, kind, generous, and selfless, can this be clearly indicated beforehand?

I don't usually follow unfinished stories, but this one is really good (๑>ڡ<) It's just my taste! Everyone should check it out! ヾ(´∀`. ヾ) Yao Yao is smart, strong, and adaptable. She's bold, meticulous, and kind, but not overly saintly. The part where she went to the hospital to find medicine for the male lead was so brave!

Well, in the beginning, the female lead selflessly took care of a male lead who only knew how to act cute, and even looked after him. Let's see what happens later.

The gentle, kind, but not saintly, courageous, and resourceful female lead is so appealing! 🥰 She possesses a spiritual spring space, a system, the ability to soothe and calm emotions, 100 points of increased power, and the ability to sense people at a certain distance and interact with various mysterious beings. She's clear-headed, strong, and doesn't rely on others. 😳😳

So beautiful! 🥺 Men get their periods after seeing this! 🥺 Women go crazy after seeing this! 💪 This is the nemesis of depression images! 😎 It's the alarm clock for images of vegetative state patients! 😭 So cute that tears streamed down my face, forming a tidal wave like the Qiantang River! 😲 So cool! 🥺 God is my rose, illuminating my dark life and giving meaning to my world!

Overall, it's a very good read. Both characters are indeed virgins, but I feel the male lead's feelings for the original female lead in his previous life weren't so simple. It would have been better if it were just a simple act of repaying a debt of gratitude. But I feel the author's portrayal doesn't quite capture that. I just feel a little uneasy, a bit sad. Sigh.

Highly recommended! The female lead is clever and quick-witted, and the author gives her some useful advantages. However, I still hope the author can give her more advantages. My heart skipped a beat when I saw her being strangely scratched earlier. The theme is fresh and engaging, but there are too few chapters. The excitement died down after just a few chapters QwQ

So sweet it's suffocating! So sweet it's suffocating! So sweet it's suffocating! This book is so good! I suggest the author update 100 chapters a day! Yes, the young couple is so sweet and innocent! Aci is described so vividly, her little thoughts and actions are so charming! And Yao Yao is so cute! She's so cool! Author, please update faster when they're killing zombies! 🥰 I can't get enough! Oh my god, let me check again to see if I've changed the bio.
