Quick Transmigration: Winning Over a Mad Villain
The assassin Su Lili transmigrates. To get the antidote for her Pavilion Master, Lin Luoluo, she has to win over the gloomy, ruthless, abused eldest prince, Xiao Hengyu.
The eunuch says, “He’s starved for love. Just give him some warmth.”
Su Lili sneers. “I only know how to kill. I don’t know how to comfort people.”
When she first meets him, Xiao Xianyu is being bullied by palace servants, curled up in the snow of the cold palace like an abandoned wolf cub. Su Lili hands him a dagger. “If you want to live, get up on your own.”
Xiao Xianyu looks up at her. His eyes hold no gratitude, only scrutiny and wariness.
She takes a blade for him and helps him maneuver through the turbulent court. Gradually, he learns to smile at her, leaves a lamp burning for her late at night, and clumsily hides away the pastries she likes.
On the day she is finally about to get the antidote, Su Lili gets drunk and mumbles against Qingyue’s shoulder, “Once the mission’s done and I have the antidote, I’m out of here...”
Xiao Xianyu’s smile freezes.
When Su Lili wakes the next morning, she finds a chain around her ankle.
He sits beside the bed, calmly wiping his dagger. His eyes are filled with madness held back to the breaking point. “Sister, what did you just say... Where are you going?”
Only then does Su Lili realize:
The person she was supposed to win over is a true madman.
