The Poor Heiress Inherits Everything, Including the Villain

Ning Jiuwei bound herself to a pitfall System. If she could protect a contractor until they died of old age, she would inherit everything they owned when they died.

But every contractor died young. The System had driven Ning Jiuwei to ruin during her first eighteen years.

But things always turn around eventually. The System gradually got smarter, picking contractors who were either mad, power-hungry nobles willing to risk their lives, or beautiful, frail villains.

Jiuwei wailed, "They've already outlived their expected lifespans. Why are they still alive?"

The frail, beautiful villain was handsome and elegant. He neatly disposed of the enemy leader, piece by piece, then turned back with a smile. "I'm hungry."

The enemy army ran in terror. "Don't come any closer!"

Jiuwei ran alongside them. "Don't come any closer!"

The enemy army burst into tears and screamed for their mothers. "Don't come any closer!"

-- Early --

The villain breathed. Jiuwei: This man is so cunning.

-- Middle --

The villain breathed. Jiuwei: Weren't you supposed to have only a year left to live? How are you still alive?

-- Late --

The villain breathed in bed. Jiuwei: I shouldn't have spoiled you! Get off!
