Xu Qingrong transmigrates into a book, becoming the villain's wicked contract wife, and gets bound to a villain reform System.
In the original story, the couple did every manner of evil and both died horribly.
Fortunately, she also got a golden finger: she can hear what demons are thinking.
So she's the only one who knows that the gentle, courteous, universally admired leader of the righteous path is actually a half-demon, suffering from a deadly poison and being used as a pawn by his sect.
The System tells her that if her husband dies, she, his contract wife, will have to die with him. To stay alive, she makes up her mind to reform him and bring him back to the righteous path.
Luckily, her husband seems easy enough to manage.
He's usually refined and gentle. If she says not to kill demons, he nods. If she says not to seize treasures, he listens.
After a month or so of this, Xu Qingrong thinks she's really managed to steer the villain back onto the right path. She even sleeps a little more soundly at night.
Until the day she finds him standing in a pool of demon blood.
She is about to rush over and stop him, but he looks up with a gentle smile in his eyes. "My lady, weren't you going to reform me?"
Only then does she notice that the copy of "Plans to Persuade Him to Be Good" that had disappeared has somehow ended up in his arms.
She wants to retreat, but he's always treated her so well.
She simply tells herself she's still "reforming" him, and does her best to stay by his side.
Later, his half-demon identity is exposed and the sect surrounds him.
She should take advantage of the chaos to distance herself and escape, but for some reason, she steps to his side instead.
He turns to look at her, smiling faintly. "My lady, have you thought this through?"
She pauses. "Thought what through?"
"If you follow me, there's no going back."
She doesn't answer.
She simply stands her ground, without taking a single step back.
