Transmigrate and Steal the Male Lead Away

Blurb: An eccentric, sweet girl x a tsundere, sharp-tongued peacock

Wen Zhuochun transmigrated.

From the start, she landed in a monster's den, with no food or warm clothes, and was forced to serve as a sacrifice.

Just as she had given up hope, the handsome boy in the cell next door suddenly drew his sword and wiped out the monsters, rescuing her along the way.

The boy was kind and warmhearted. Not only did he take her in, he also accepted her as his junior schoolmate, taught her how to cultivate, and helped her find a way home.

Wen Zhuochun was so moved she could barely hold back her tears. To cling to her benefactor, she immediately declared loudly, "Waaah, from today on, I'm your most loyal lackey!"

The boy: "...Shut up. Cry again and I'll throw you out to feed the monsters."

Wen Zhuochun: Sniffle. He's so mean.

With the boy protecting her, she enjoyed a pretty good life for a while in this cultivation world crawling with demons and monsters.

Then, somewhere along the way, she suddenly realized she might have fallen for him...

So, after finding a way home, Wen Zhuochun made a bold decision.

She would date him before going home.

On his way down the mountain to exterminate monsters, Song Donglin found a homeless girl and took her in temporarily out of kindness.

But he soon regretted it.

She was an incredibly annoying handful, and there were exactly two things she couldn't do: this and that. She had no talent for cultivation and was so timid that whenever a monster scared her, she'd cling to him and bawl.

He could put up with all that.

Until he was forced to enter her dreams again and again.

The timid girl turned into a completely different person in her dreams. She always said things he couldn't understand, called him a hateful illiterate who only knew how to bully young women, imagined him as a rag doll, and punched him twice.

Actually, it was kind of fun.

He found it amusing and would occasionally chime in: "Wen Zhuochun, you're so stupid that if someone sold you, you'd cheerfully help them count the money. How are you going to survive without me?"

Then, one day, she suddenly said in her dream that she liked him.

He froze and said nothing.

Because he might have liked her a little, too.

As he stood there stunned, the girl lifted her face and planted a loud kiss on his cheek.

"Will you come home with me?"

More details to come...

Coming soon:

If asked who Xuan Xiqing, Grand Secretary of Great Zhou, hated most in his life, the answer would surely be his former fiancée, the young top-ranked scholar.

She was arrogant, vicious, ill-tempered, and a liar.

Her arrogance lay in ignoring his advances. Her cruelty lay in nearly taking his chastity when he accidentally ingested a love potion. Her temper showed in how she treated him like a dog day in and day out.

And her lies...

"Breaking off our engagement back then wasn't my choice. Please, Your Excellency, save my fiance's life. I'll pay any price."

Xuan Xiqing couldn't help sneering.

He remembered their passionate young love, when they had sworn under the moon that they would grow old together like the wutong trees and die together like mandarin ducks, vowing never to part for as long as they lived.

Who could have guessed that when the Xuan family fell from power, she would immediately break off their engagement, forget those vows, and climb a higher branch?

For more than 1,300 days after that, on every sleepless night, he thought about how he would make her pay one day.

Now, at last, he had his chance.

"All right." He smiled down at the woman kneeling before him and spoke languidly. "Then I'll take you in exchange."

On their wedding night,

Tang Jingxi sat on the edge of the bed in her wedding dress, nervous and uneasy.

Looking back on their youth, the thing she had hated most was Xuan Xiqing following her around all day. He interrupted whenever she spoke to someone else, and insisted on joining every outing she took with her classmates... He clung to her like a ghost who would never leave her alone.

So, when the Xuan family lost power, she immediately found an excuse to break off their engagement.

But she never expected that when they met again years later, he would have become a trusted minister of the emperor.

As she sat lost in thought, the door creaked open. He approached her slowly, lifting her veil bit by bit with a jade ruyi scepter.

She looked up and met his dark expression.

As she sat there feeling guilty, the young man suddenly tore off his clothes and leaned against the headboard, staring at her with dark eyes.

"Get on top."

"Do to me what you did with him."

He gripped her cheek hard with long fingers. "Make me satisfied, and I'll save him."
