The Gold-Gobbling Demon Lord and Her ATM

Undergoing a major rewrite

Cold-faced, sarcastic heroine × airheaded, sweet, shameless hero

Both transmigrated (old friends meeting, tears in their eyes)

Pei Lingjing transmigrated. The System didn't give her a script, but instead saddled her with a pile of debuffs. All she knows is that she's the villain in this book. Other than that, she knows nothing.

Oh, and she has to rely on spirit stones to stay alive every day. She was already dirt poor, and now she's even poorer.

Luckily, she found a rich sucker and appointed him her very own ATM!

But you can't predict what fate has in store. That sucker turned out to be the male lead of the original book.

Pei Lingjing (deadpan): So is he going to team up with the heroine and chop me into mincemeat?

Jiang Yubai transmigrated into a book! Luckily, he met a fellow transmigrator from his hometown, and planned for them to sabotage each other (crossed out) rely on each other for survival.

But instead of a friend, she wanted an ATM.

Looking at his System quest, which said he'd die if he didn't spend money, Jiang Yubai swore he would cling to her for dear life.

Fellow townswoman! We'll face life and death together!

But you can't predict what fate has in store. She turned out to be the villain. Jiang Yubai went to Pei Lingjing in tears and snot, saying, "It's over. I helped the wicked, so the original heroine's going to chop me into mincemeat too. Pei Lingjing, take me with you. I've helped you for so long, what's one more time? At least when we get chopped into mincemeat, we'll have each other for company."

Pei Lingjing and the original heroine looked at each other, then started shoving one another.

"Your partner."

"Your partner."

"Yours, yours."

"I don't want him. He's not mine. Yours, yours."

One day, on a rooftop beneath the rising moon:

Jiang Yubai: If I give you lots and lots of money, will you be able to say whatever you want?

Pei Lingjing: Yes, but I can't turn off my word-spirit power, so it's best to say as little as possible.

Jiang Yubai: (Pours out spirit stones) I want to hear you talk.

Pei Lingjing: What should I say?

Jiang Yubai: Say, "Jiang Yubai likes Pei Lingjing."

Pei Lingjing: Do you know what word-spirit power is? Is this some new way to get back at me? How interesting.

Jiang Yubai: But I really do like you.

Pei Lingjing: Oh...?! You like me? When did you go crazy?

Jiang Yubai looked serious, staring at her without blinking. "I really do like you."

After a major battle, Jiang Yubai was on the brink of death.

Jiang Yubai: Pei Lingjing, come see me. I'm dying. Who'll spend money on you after I'm gone? Once I die, all my wealth will be yours.

Pei Lingjing (taking spirit stones from his storage bag): Stay alive for me!

Pei Lingjing: Do you know what word-spirit power is?

Jiang Yubai (sitting up): I've got a whole bellyful of last words saved up.

Pei Lingjing (deadpan): Don't you dare die.
