Jiang Luowei is a star employee at the Transmigration Bureau, with three years on the job, no injuries, and a perfect record across three hundred missions.
Her final mission is to win over the aloof sword cultivator Xie Buyu. Her boss pats her on the shoulder and says, “Finish this one and you can retire.”
She believes him.
Then the System tells her that if she fails, she’ll turn into a pig.
She laughs. How hard can it be to win over one aloof male lead?
Three months later, she’s a tiny pink pig.
Just as she lies in the mud with all four legs in the air, cursing the heavens, the second male lead, Lu Wenzhou, happens to pass by. He picks her up, dusts her off, and tucks her into his arms. “No one wants you? I do.”
From then on, she lives the life of a pig treasured like a princess by the second male lead: a carved pigsty, little celadon dishes, and daily outings tucked in his arms.
The only problem is that he’s always talking to himself around her, reminiscing about all the stupid things she did when she was human.
“When you smile, there’s a little dimple on your left cheek.”
“You always scrunch your nose when you get mad.”
“You fell when you brought medicine to your senior brother and scarred your knee... I have scar cream here. I’ve kept it for three years, but never managed to give it to you.”
Jiang Luowei lies across his knees, all four hooves tucked into a ball, feeling heat spread from the tips of her ears to the base of her tail.
Oh no. Could he have a crush on me?
Even worse, she realizes that ever since becoming a pig, she can’t stop wanting to ram into the male lead whenever she sees him.
She’s just a pig now, so she can ram into him and run away. Who’s going to hold it against a pig?
Right?
