Xu Meitang transmigrates into a book as a foolish supporting female character destined for a tragic end.
The original girl abducted a man, causing Xiao Muchen, a future treacherous minister, to lose his memory. She then tricked him into becoming her live-in husband and demanded his attention night after night.
After Xiao Muchen regains his memory, the original girl comes to him in tears, begging him to make their relationship official. She spreads the news everywhere that he had been her live-in husband.
As a result, he loses a marriage between families of equal standing, his father loses his noble title, and his grandmother dies miserably.
Xiao Muchen personally forces a bowl of medicine down the original girl's throat...
When Xu Meitang, who has transmigrated into the book, sees the future great villain attending to her as she washes up, her vision goes black.
She improves Xiao Muchen's treatment in public while secretly making plans to run away.
Before she gets far, he corners her in a cramped space. “You're leaving me? What did I do wrong?”
Xu Meitang catches the wolfish look in his eyes and feels as if he'll devour her whole at any moment.
His eyes redden as he grits out by her ear, “Why did you lie to me?”
Xu Meitang nervously tries to fob him off, only to hear him murmur softly, “You must have had your reasons.”
Wait a minute.
The book never said this future great villain was such a hopeless romantic, did it?
