[Transmigration] [Comedic Face-Slapping] [Lovers Turned Enemies] [Woman Disguised as a Man] [Complains While Loving It] [Face-Slapping Power Fantasy]
A dramatic, mischievous jinx of a girl x a cold-faced, arrogant heir
Chu Ning transmigrates as a jinx who brings misfortune to everyone around her. From the start, she's tied up in the middle of a brazier as they try to drive out evil spirits.
Her grandfather brings over a "miracle medicine from the Western Regions." "Ning'er, swallow this and everything will be over."
Chu Ning pretends to give in, moving everyone to tears.
The next second, the pill flies straight into her grandfather's mouth.
"Take your medicine, Grandpa!"
Just as she's about to meet her end, she starts naming people with a curse:
"The first to meet King Yama: the three masters."
"The second: Second Aunt, who just called me a jinx."
"The third..."
The whole household panics. But someone behind the curtains laughs.
The one laughing is Shen Kuo, heir to the Dafeng throne. He's hated her for fourteen years and has specially brought her a poisonous Gu from the Western Regions.
"Seven days: you'll fear the cold. Fourteen days: ten thousand insects will burrow into your heart. Twenty-seven days: no medicine will help. Forty-nine days: you'll die suddenly."
Chu Ning: "What a refreshing pick-me-up."
