This Treacherous Official Is Hard to Handle

[Rich Little Sun] VS [Gloomy, Wicked Minister]: A light, sweet redemption story about a book-transmigrated nobody warming the heart of a major villain.

Jiang Rimu had only flipped through a history book before bed, lamenting how cruel and evil the notorious minister Zhou Xu was in its pages.

When she opened her eyes, she had transmigrated into the book... and become Zhou Xu's doomed young fiancée.

System: [Host, help clear Zhou Xu's name and prove him a loyal and upright man, and you will receive a reward worth over a hundred million.]

Jiang Rimu: Loyal, my foot! Do you think I'd submit to such a deranged task?!

Jiang Rimu was the most willing to bend in all of history.

In public, she protected Zhou Xu; in private, she showed him compassion, urging him to face the world with optimism and sunshine.

The great villain went from resisting her to gradually becoming tender and obedient.

Just as she thought the task would be that easy...

System: [The protagonist has taken revenge without authorization, and his grievance has not been cleared. The System has determined that the mission failed. Host, prepare to be sent back.]

Everyone in Jingzhou knew that Zhou Xu's fiancée had died.

She had died saving him on the day he was assassinated.

After that, he went mad with grief, charging into battle and spending six years in the military camp without ever returning to the capital.

When Jiang Rimu was suddenly sent back by the System,

Zhou Xu had already risen to great heights and become a general who protected the country and its people.

Jiang Rimu still thought of him as the boy he used to be. She teased him, expecting him to blush.

But Zhou Xu looked at her, his eyes slowly turning red. Suddenly, he dropped to his knees and wrapped both arms tightly around her waist, pressing his face against her belly and refusing to move for a long time.

In his silk spring clothes, he greedily savored the warm softness in his arms, finally at peace.

Jiang Rimu was stunned and tried to struggle free, but heard him sob:

“Mumu, the big fat cat had six litters, and the lotus flowers covered the whole back hill. I never thought you would come back...”
