[Transmigrate into a Book + System + Win Over the Villain + Unhinged Male Lead + Household and Palace Intrigue + Sweet-and-Angsty Push and Pull]
Shen Nanxi never dreamed that after staying up all night in the lab, she would open her eyes and find herself inside the tragic historical romance she had written, as the Ye family's legitimate daughter, Ye Zhenzhen.
Worse still, a System calling itself “Little Potato” tells her:
If she wants to go home, she has to meet two conditions: change the doomed ending of the unhinged villain Xiao Huaijin, and make him fall in love with her.
Shen Nanxi falls silent.
Xiao Huaijin is the orphan of Prince Zhao, and the most miserable, most unhinged, most ill-fated villain she ever wrote.
She wrote him as a boy who lost his father young and endured suspicion and torment; she wrote him slowly turning evil and gaining power over the entire court; and in the end, she personally gave him a death pierced by ten thousand arrows.
How is she supposed to win him over?
But when Shen Nanxi sees Xiao Huaijin for the first time, she freezes.
Because his face is exactly like the boy she had secretly loved for years when she was young.
So, in order to get home, she diligently changes the plot, saves the villain, and tries to earn some affection points along the way.
But as she keeps saving him, something seems off.
The man who was once cold-hearted and trusted no one starts clinging to her more and more.
Until one day, Xiao Huaijin pins her against the door. His eyes are dark, but his voice is frighteningly gentle.
“Zhenzhen.”
“After all this time leading me on, where do you think you're going?”
At the same time, Little Potato cheerfully pops up.
[Congratulations, Host. You have successfully won him over!]
[The portal home is about to open.]
Shen Nanxi: “…”
Wait.
Is it too late to change her mind?
