Shen Pengpeng is a disposable female side character in a male-oriented novel, the poor male lead's long-suffering wife.
In the original story, the male lead wins her over for the generous mission rewards, then dumps her as soon as he makes it big.
After awakening, Shen Pengpeng can't understand: if the mission concerns her, why shouldn't she get the rewards?
To get the story moving and claim her rewards as soon as possible, she takes the initiative to help him "win her over."
Shen Pengpeng buys the boy a meal, but he refuses to eat, his face cold.
Shen Pengpeng says earnestly, "Don't go hungry just because you're trying to save money. I'm not hungry."
The boy is speechless: "..."
Shen Pengpeng's childhood friend comes to visit, but the boy blocks him at the door.
Shen Pengpeng says solemnly, "I know you're jealous, but you still shouldn't be rude to our guest."
The boy freezes. A crack appears in his usually composed expression, then he angrily flings his sleeve and walks away.
.
The boy takes ages to make his next move, and Shen Pengpeng grows impatient waiting.
Late one night, she sneaks into his room and pins him to the bed. "You just want to sleep with me, right? I'll help you!"
Only after the night is over does Shen Pengpeng realize she got the wrong person.
As it turns out, the boy before her isn't the male lead at all. He's the powerful figure the male lead has been desperately trying to get close to: Li Zhiyu, the current emperor's grandson.
Li Zhiyu is a moonlight-like presence in the pages of a storybook: aloof and noble, an untouchable flower on a high peak, cold to every woman.
Remembering all the foolish things she'd done, Shen Pengpeng finally understands: he wasn't embarrassed, he was furious with her!
She turns to run, but the boy grabs her by the waist, gritting his teeth. "Why are you running?"
.
While investigating a case, Li Zhiyu is ambushed and flees into the mountains, only to be abducted and taken home by a woman of unknown origin.
At first, he thinks she's a spy sent by his enemies.
Later, he realizes he gave her too much credit.
He has never met a woman like her.
Flirtatious, foolish, and full of herself.
Forced to hide here under an assumed identity while secretly investigating the truth behind his father's murder, he is repeatedly teased, slandered, and even touched against his will by her.
Once he returns to the capital, he'll make her pay.
Later,
he thinks that if she is willing to behave, he might even grant her the position of Crown Princess.
But after the young woman has her way with him, she takes all the money on him and runs off.
Content warnings:
1. This is not a strong, independent heroine story, just a fluffy little romance.
2. Both leads are virgins and have only been with each other.
3. A bold, money-loving farm girl and a proud imperial grandson enduring hardship.
4. The heroine mistakes someone for the male lead, then runs away.
5. The heroine mistakenly thinks the male lead is pursuing her.
Coming soon: After Faking My Death, the Disabled Demon God Goes Mad
Yu Deng transmigrates into a book as a little lamp fairy destined to burn her wick for the male lead, eventually becoming one of the dragon bones in his body.
She knows that once she finishes the plot, she can become a god, so she happily waits for the day her fake-death plot arrives.
After transmigrating into the book, the System gives her just a few key details and then goes offline. Yu Deng has no choice but to find the male lead herself.
In the abyss, she comes across a silent, gloomy member of the dragon clan.
Yu Deng thinks Lin Jiansheng is the male lead and takes devoted care of him.
She removes her own candle root and clumsily builds him a wheelchair that will never grow cold.
He is afraid of the cold and the dark, so she burns her wick to light the long nights for him.
On countless long evening walks, she is the one who leads him along.
On the day they leave the abyss, Yu Deng worries that the cold of the Demon Realm will extinguish her flame.
Lin Jiansheng removes one of his protective scales and gives it to her. The scale turns into a beautiful red dress that shields her.
"Is this a wedding dress?" she asks, blinking.
Lin Jiansheng says nothing, but the tips of his ears turn red.
His dragon tail quietly curls around her waist, clearly claiming her as his own.
Someone as wonderful as her should belong to him.
Later, when the System comes back online, it tells her she's been looking for the wrong person.
On the day Yu Deng follows the plot, she deliberately sends Lin Jiansheng away to a dangerous place to fetch a healing immortal herb.
But she never imagined that, worried about her "injury," Lin Jiansheng would return early.
As her consciousness fades, she clearly sees Lin Jiansheng rushing toward her like a madman, recklessly charging into the killing array, a streak of bright red blood tears at the corner of his eye.
But he is the only demon dragon in all creation, born without tears.
That red streak is blood from his heart, brought forth by despair.
Yu Deng ascends to godhood more than ten thousand years later, only to find the divine realm in complete chaos.
They say a Demon God is about to tear the Myriad Worlds apart, asking everyone he meets:
Have you seen my little lamp?
She has a lovely smile, orange eyes, and loves wearing red.
*
The day Yu Deng reunites with him, snow falls in the divine realm.
He blows the snow off her lashes, dark obsession and madness in his eyes:
"Do you love him so much that you'd die for him?"
Frightened by his tone, Yu Deng tries to flee, but his thick dragon tail holds her fast.
This time, from heaven to earth, he will never let her go.
Core theme: "Love is the light of dawn we see after casting aside arrogance and prejudice."
The finale was caught off guard and felt a bit provocative, so does the treasure refer to the Crown Princess of the East Palace 😩
I haven't updated it yet, my dear, I'm hungry for food 😭 [empty bowl]
Wait, wait, so there are treasures and system rewards throughout? Old Shen didn't write anything either.
When will it be updated? [Let me be healthy]
Hahaha, this makes me so angry again
Happy New Year! Big! 🤩🤩
[Covering face and peeking] Are you happy inside now, male protagonist 🐶
It's really beautiful. I tied it in one night. I'm waiting for a big update.
What, what, how did it break 🤔
Fanfan is really clueless [glasses]
