Plucking Jade

[Historical romance + transmigrate into a book + bickering couple + ensemble cast with multiple couples + young love]

Yu Hanxing, a modern woman, dies unexpectedly and transmigrates into a historical forced-romance novel as the villainous female supporting character.

The novel has multiple male leads. In the original, the heroine is beautiful, delicate, and pitiful. Three men coax or deceive her, take her completely, then force her into marriage. The original body's tragic fate came from envying the heroine and provoking these wolves. Free from the need to follow the plot, Yu Hanxing enjoys life as the prime minister's eldest daughter. Following her principle of keeping her distance from all the male leads, all she wants is to watch the romantic drama and the ensuing rivalry. But no matter how much she tries to steer clear, she eventually gets caught up in it herself.

A one-to-three romance revamped into a one-on-one romance, with four couples in total, and everyone is a virgin.

Couple 1: the bright and bold young lady Yu Hanxing × the aloof heir Xun Zaixi

Couple 2: the gentle, timid Ruan Linlang × the arrogant young general Qi Chengye

Couple 3: the ailing beauty and original heroine Xia Yingxue × her gentle childhood friend Shen Cangyun

Couple 4: the resilient concubine-born daughter Chen Zhiwei × the fallen head of the Lu family, Lu Chuanxing

Warnings: Male leads 1 and 2 once had feelings for the original heroine. If that bothers you, think carefully before reading! Don't click! Seriously, don't! This is just a sweet, angsty romance about young people, with an ensemble cast. The couples all get about the same amount of page time.

From the author's perspective, all the heroines and female supporting characters I've written are wonderful, and everyone loves them. So this can't count against the male leads or supporting male characters. If you trust me, this is still a story about standing up and fighting back.
