[Dual Systems + two powerful leads + punishing scumbags + redemption + political intrigue + ensemble cast]
Gao Zhenmian spent nine lifetimes trying to win over Li Jingyan, and died horribly in all nine. She embroidered him a sachet, and he tossed it into a pond. She baked him pastries, and he fed them to the dogs. In the end, even the maids and matrons who protected her died horribly for her sake.
It's the tenth life already, and I'm still supposed to win him over? Win over your grandpa's old leg!
She promptly blocked the System and began plotting in the shadows.
[Supporting Character Comeback System 9494: The male lead is the center of the world's destiny. Beneath his aura, he is invincible and can always turn danger into safety!]
Gao Zhenmian: What did you say? He can't be killed? Then I'll beat him to death!
By day, she spun him around like a top with beatings. Late at night, she dressed as a ghost and stuffed poisonous pastries down his throat. Finally, she even sent him to a Daoist priest to have the evil spirits driven out.
Li Jingyan was reborn with the [Mandate of Heaven System 1010] and declared with confidence, “She definitely still loves me!”
Gao Zhenmian struck him with a broom so hard his eyes saw stars.
[Mandate of Heaven System 1010: The young lady supporting character is hitting you so hard because she loves you deeply. Host, you should let her prove her love for you with all her might!]
Li Jingyan: ???
As the two Systems sabotaged each other and the male lead grew more unlucky the harder he tried to win her over, even earning a warning that he would become ugly for three days, Gao Zhenmian finally sensed something was off. Whose System was this, anyway? Why was it always helping her?
Xiao Yu'an dreamed every night of the same woman, watching her controlled like a puppet on strings and thrown into danger again and again.
“I clearly dreamed of you, so why are you still...”
In every life, he could foresee her peril, but for nine lifetimes he was always one step too late to save her. Now it was their tenth life. This time, he had finally met the living, breathing her, not her cold corpse.
