In a Novel with a Terrible Ending: The Big Bad Really Doesn't Want to Work

Qin Luoluo was a hardworking employee in the 21st century, a model young woman who had never stolen, robbed, or broken the law. Getting struck by lightning was bad enough, but when she opened her eyes, she had become the ultimate villain in a badly ended novel!

Other people transmigrate into a book and get a satisfying comeback story, rising to the top of the world.

She transmigrates into a book and starts out as a dishwasher, bound to a System for Raising a Destined Big Villain. Her tasks are:

Help the heroine avoid the story's disastrous ending and give this doomed couple a happy ending.

Gather a villainous crew, bringing every ruthless character under her command.

Don't die! Don't die! Whatever you do, don't die!

Qin Luoluo: ??? Did I transmigrate here to play matchmaker and work as an HR manager for team-building? I just want to slack off and get by. I don't want to work!

System: “Host, you won't get any rewards if you don't complete your tasks.”

Qin Luoluo: ...Fine, I'll work.

So she builds her career while grumbling all the way:

First, she picks up an orphan named Goudan, only to discover that he's a ruthless talent with extraordinary gifts.

Then she meets a good-for-nothing prince in the Foundation Establishment stage, who turns out to be a hidden big BOSS who goes dark later on.

Even the original heroine and her Demon Lord husband need her to mediate if they're going to avoid a disastrous ending.

As she gathers them in, she goes from a villain everyone wants to see dead to the beloved big shot of the villainous crew. Even the Demon Lord has to call her Senior Sister, and the heroine treats her with the utmost respect.

This is a goofy ensemble story about a “seemingly proper leader changing fate against all odds alongside a bunch of ridiculous teammates.”

The pacing is fast, so proceed with caution if that's not your thing.

I ask neither for the moon nor the stars, only to cherish each day.

A thousand years by your side, all for one sword that can protect us both.

Even though this big villain really, really, really doesn't want to work.
