The Frail Supporting Lady Keeps Herself Alive by Using the Dragon Emperor as a Hand Warmer

[Transmigrate Into a Book + Mind Reading + Silly, Sweet Romance + Devoted Couple; Lazy, Sickly Heroine vs. Overactive-Imagination Villain]

Shen Jiaojiao transmigrated into a book, becoming the frail, wicked supporting character in a cultivation novel who wouldn’t live past winter.

Since she was so afraid of the cold, she picked up a red-banded snake in the back hills. It was burning hot and had two little bumps on its head.

She coiled it around her neck every day as a temperature-regulating scarf, tucked it into her bedding at night as a living hot-water bottle, and even made the little snake breathe fire to roast sweet potatoes for her.

What Shen Jiaojiao didn’t know was that the snake was Jiuyuan, the Dragon Emperor of Destruction, whose tribulation had failed and whose cultivation had regressed.

Jiuyuan swore that once he regained his true form, the first thing he’d do was swallow the woman who dared use him as a hand warmer.

Until one day, Jiuyuan accidentally heard Shen Jiaojiao’s thoughts:

[Waaah, my little heater is so cute. Come cuddle! I wish I could sleep hugging you forever.]

Jiuyuan scoffed, the tips of his ears turning red. Shameless woman! She actually wants my body!

Later, Shen Jiaojiao saved up enough spirit stones to buy a top-grade warming jade artifact, then tossed the little snake into the bushes.

That night, the doors to her bedchamber were kicked open. A stunningly beautiful man, tall and long-legged, with dragon horns atop his head, cornered her against the wall. His eyes were red as he gritted his teeth.

“You found someone new and now you want to dump me after using me? Am I not warm enough for you anymore?”
