The Villainous Tyrant I Raised Has Turned Dark

Please add my upcoming novels to your reading list: "I Mistook the Villain for the Male Lead and Raised Him" and "I Died for the Dog Emperor's Country, Then Was Reborn"

When the tyrant Shen Li was still a down-and-out prince, a little palace maid stayed by his side without ever abandoning him. She saved his life again and again, and devoted herself to teaching him to become a good emperor.

To keep from disappointing her, Shen Li had to suppress his true nature and become a wise ruler. Afterward, his only act of willfulness was to defy the ministers, even when they threatened to die, and insist on making the little palace maid his empress so they could rule the empire together.

But then she said her mission was complete and she had to hurry off to raise another kid?!

Shen Li immediately dropped his disguise as a wise ruler, turning cruel and violent. He viciously threatened that if she dared leave, he would make everyone die with her...

★

Su Jinyao received a mission to raise a young villain and correct his twisted worldview.

She wasn't fazed. Raising a child couldn't be that hard, right? But her very first assignment was a fallen emperor who had a whole family wiped out at the slightest provocation...

Su Jinyao had no choice but to steel herself and diligently raise the child. She played both father and mother to a sensitive, fragile little prince whose moods were as changeable as the weather and whose temper was brutal. At last, she raised the little one into a refined, gentle, and scholarly wise ruler. Just as she was ready to retire after completing her mission, the villainous child she had worked so hard to raise suddenly turned dark!

Note: The male lead is not a good person from beginning to end. The only difference is whether he's pretending to be human or not. Under the heroine's painstaking guidance, he tries hard to act obedient at first, then reveals his true nature and locks her away later.

A healing redemption story, sweet and cozy.

Upcoming novel 1, please add it to your reading list: "I Mistook the Villain for the Male Lead and Raised Him"

After transmigrating into the role of a vicious supporting woman destined to have the male lead run her through with a sword and scatter her soul, Su Wanwan thought long and hard. She decided to bring him home and raise him while he was still a bullied child. With that debt of gratitude between them, the male lead wouldn't dare hurt her, and would have to hand over all his opportunities to her!

But when she went looking, she found three equally unfortunate children. Unable to tell which one was the male lead, Su Wanwan simply took all three home and raised them. She practiced her balancing act every day: sword training with her eldest disciple in the morning, taking her second disciple out on adventures in the afternoon, and telling her third disciple stories at night. She diligently played the part of a good master and never showed favoritism.

Who could have guessed that none of the three disciples would be satisfied? They fought tooth and nail for her favor every day, each using every trick in the book. Su Wanwan was busy keeping the three of them in harmony, all while trying to figure out which one was the male lead!

The more she observed them, the more it seemed none of the three was the male lead. Su Wanwan panicked and set off on a grueling search for the real male lead.

Then all three disciples turned dark...

Upcoming novel 2: "I Died for the Dog Emperor's Country, Then Was Reborn"

Everyone knew that the current emperor, Shen Junshuo, doted most on Consort Hua. He had left the entire harem empty just to keep her as his sole favorite.

The people cursed the vixen consort, then hid under their quilts, biting their handkerchiefs and turning green with envy.

But when a devastating drought struck and the people were left destitute, Consort Hua immediately became a target. Ministers scrambled to condemn her as a calamity who had brought ruin to the country. Under the banner of purging the emperor's evil advisers, they earnestly urged him to kill the vixen consort.

Shen Junshuo refused in public with stern words, but then turned around and gave her a cup of poisoned wine, ending her life while keeping the woman he truly loved safely hidden away.

Only then did she understand that, despite all the favor she had seemed to receive, she had merely been a stand-in for Shen Junshuo's beloved, a scapegoat presented to the world. Her heart finally died. If she had another life, she hoped she would never meet Shen Junshuo, that dog of an emperor, again!

Who could have known that when she opened her eyes, she really had returned to the time of the imperial selection in her previous life? She immediately made herself ill so she could avoid being chosen for the palace.

She thought she could escape her entanglement with the dog emperor, but Shen Junshuo suddenly became obsessed with her, refusing to leave her alone. He even climbed through her window in the middle of the night and pinned her down as he demanded, "Why didn't you enter the palace? Don't you want to be a consort in this life?"
