[Outwardly aloof, noble black-moonlight dad who privately loves to complain, can't soothe a child but adores his precious baby x transmigrated mom who swore to delete the plot but is forced into the role of a devoted wife and mother, and accidentally falls in love with her archenemy after marrying him first]
On the first day of Yueyue's first year of elementary school, her parents argued over which of them had put her into the plot as a disposable character.
What was a disposable character?
As their argument escalated, the little girl accidentally learned their secret...
It turned out this was a world built like a sweet romance novel. Her father was the first love and cherished crush of her mother's aunt, but he later turned evil and died. Her mother was an innocent office worker from the real world who transmigrated into the story's ending as a villainess, dragging her father down with her. When she opened her eyes again, she had been reborn six years into the novel.
Her father was now dressed in a custom-tailored suit. He glanced down at his watch, his handsome brows lowered. "Get rid of that nuisance outside, quickly. You and I were never married."
Her mother's sharp tongue came out in full force. "Have you forgotten, Mr. Qi? You once treated me as a stand-in for the heroine. Maybe we had a child then, and we just happened to end up in this twisted plot bug."
"Abandoning a child is a serious crime in any world. I don't want to suffer because of your unhealthy values. Hey, where are you putting your hands? Let go of me!"
Her father gripped her mother's neck. His dark lashes hid his emotions as he fell silent. Yueyue didn't understand what being reborn meant, but she caught the important part: Mom was in danger!
She marched up on her little legs and kicked his shiny black shoe. "Let go of Mom!"
.
Qi Boli's last memory from his previous life was of dying while holding the bloodied woman in his arms. With no time to think about how many things the liar had deceived him about, he willingly fell for her trap, kissed her now-beautiful-but-disheveled face, and collapsed at the story's full stop.
When he opened his eyes again, he was sure those old-fashioned wedding photos were fake, and that the woman putting on makeup beside him was an impostor. But she spoke in a familiar voice: "You're awake? Take the child to school. You're going to be late."
Qi Boli's keen gaze landed on the family portrait of the three of them. After testing her, he discovered that the liar had also been reborn. She came clean about who she was: a screenwriter from the real world who had transmigrated here before she could change the novel's plot.
He could barely make out the liar's incessant chatter. All he remembered was her saying, "This might be a bug, or maybe the author had a change of heart and wrote an epilogue. It's no surprise you and I have a kid, but in the main story, we both died."
Qi Boli frowned. They'd only done it once, and she got pregnant?
He threatened to send the child away, but the liar refused and even threatened him.
The plot of his previous life had left Qi Boli sick of everything. He wanted to deal with this woman, but a soft little hand grabbed his leg. "Dad, don't bully Mom."
.
Yun Suran wanted a divorce as soon as possible, so she tried to contact the author and find a way back to the real world. Every day, she provoked the black-moonlight man who ignored her, but he never got angry. Aside from occasionally getting handsy with her on the pretext that the Qi family wanted a second child, she gave in just as she had last time, unable to resist his good looks.
Far from the hero and heroine, Yun Suran tried hard to bond with the six-year-old daughter who had appeared out of nowhere. The little girl looked a lot like Qi Boli but had inherited her mother's personality: lively and unruly.
The once-desolate villa gradually began to feel like home. Just as Yun Suran started to feel happy with her life, the author appeared. "Congratulations on repairing the secondary couple's storyline. Now I'm sending you back to your own world."
After hesitating for a long time, Yun Suran stepped toward the portal, only for the man to embrace her. "Didn't you say we'd fight each other to the death? You lied to me again."
She froze for a moment. Was he actually crying?
.
Bonus scene:
Qi Boli hated children. After being reborn, he spent every day working and picking up his daughter. He tried to fulfill her requests by having the liar at home or his secretary handle them.
Her teacher often told him, "Qi Yuejiu has been doing well at school and getting good grades."
The man nodded, quite pleased that his daughter had inherited his genius for academics.
One day, Qi Boli caught Yueyue being bullied and immediately put on a display of his bking aura, confronting the other student's parents. But because he was physically weak, he ended up in the hospital too.
When he woke, he smelled home cooking. The liar was wearing casual clothes and lecturing him. "Did you think you were still the old Qi heir who used to fight like a madman? You got into a car accident two years ago. You shouldn't be fighting. I really don't know what the heroine saw in an obsessive maniac like you."
Yueyue rushed to the bedside after school. "Waaah! Dad did this for me!"
Qi Boli looked at the two of them bathed in sunlight and suddenly thought that living in an epilogue wasn't so bad.
.
Many years later, Yun Suran woke up in the man's arms, thinking that at last, she and her black-moonlight love no longer had to pretend to be bitter enemies who hated each other.
The man, pretending to be asleep, kissed her and said, "Good morning, Screenwriter Qi."
Reader's Guide:
Both are each other's first love, both are sexually inexperienced, and both are committed exclusively to each other.
The male lead really is cold and unfeeling, and rarely softens. He doesn't love the female lead much at first, but loves her deeply later.
The female lead doesn't have a strong urge to save the male lead. At first, she just wants to stay alive and cling to him. Later, she falls for him for real.
Age gap: five years.
There are lots of child-rearing scenes. There will be a second child, but only near the ending. The original story's hero and heroine won't become too evil, and they don't take up much of the novel.
At heart, this is a silly, sweet romance. There are no high-IQ business battles; everything serves the plot.
If you encounter a scene you don't like, run away quickly (loudly)!
The most important thing about reading is having fun. Thank you so much.
