Jiang Ning stayed up all night writing her thesis and died suddenly, only to transmigrate into a sweet romance novel as Shen Yewei’s number-one fangirl, a supporting female character.
The moment she opened her eyes, the System immediately issued a stern warning: “Stay in character! You love him so much you’re crazy about him!”
Me: Got it! First, let’s clear Master’s name and prove he didn’t commit murder!
Unbelievable! The aloof, ascetic, universally adored grandmaster who has achieved spiritual union is framed from the start for murdering a famous courtesan, and is set to be executed in public in seven days!
The sect leaders cover for one another, her fellow disciples kick a man when he’s down, and she’s even thrown out for trying to investigate?
A seemingly simple courtesan murder case turns out to involve a century-old secret of the sect!
No problem, I have some tricks up my sleeve!
Step one: Make Master use his charms to get all the case files from Mingxin Peak.
Step two: Pick up an adorable little dragon boy as my junior disciple, only to discover he’s secretly a big shot.
Step three: Call in mysterious reinforcements to storm the main peak and expose the real mastermind.
Once the dust settles, the entire sect begs Shen Yewei to become their leader.
His ears turn red as he tugs at my sleeve, his voice trembling: “Ning’er, the first rule of the sect is that teacher-student romances are forbidden.”
I stuff the sect leader’s seal into his hand. “Don’t worry, Master. Become sect leader first, then change the rules.”
System: Warning! You’re breaking character! You’re supposed to be a fangirl, not a bandit!
Me: What do you know? You establish your career before starting a family!
