Cheng Meng transmigrated into the storybook she had read before her death, becoming the male lead's legal wife. In the story, the male lead had women on both arms, while "Cheng Meng" bore him children and, ever virtuous and magnanimous, used her dowry to set him up with concubines and beauties.
Heh. As the mightiest general in a woman-dominated kingdom, even in a storybook, she was going to marry someone handsome! Cheng Meng looked at the "rugged man" of a male lead with scorn. He was an insult to her sense of beauty. Wouldn't a fair-skinned, pretty young man be much better?
The woman-dominated kingdom was at war with a man-dominated kingdom. As its commander, Cheng Meng was written into a storybook by the enemy kingdom and maliciously humiliated. Who could have guessed that after her death, this would become her one chance at survival? So what if she was living inside a storybook? Cheng Meng, who had been hovering on the brink of death every day, was taking it in stride. She was happy to live to a hundred in the storybook and marry another pretty young man!
Male lead's perspective:
What? His older sister, female cousins, and fiancée were all in the harem of the domineering male lead?
Having transmigrated into a story with a male lead at its center, Gu Baichuan had become the youngest son of a doomed prince! He thought about his fate: after his whole family was demoted to commoners, the original owner had harassed his fiancée on the street after she became the male lead's concubine, and had been beaten to death...
Heh. Dying was out of the question. But every named woman in the book belonged to the male lead's harem. Was he supposed to remain a bachelor for two lifetimes? Gu Baichuan shed a sorrowful tear.
While bedridden, Gu Baichuan read a novel whose male lead was a domineering hero with a "Literary Genius System." With the System's help, he became a celebrated and charming literary talent, adored by countless women. The novel's male supporting character, who shared Gu Baichuan's name, was terribly unlucky. Every woman around him flocked to the male lead's harem, including his fiancée. In the end, the male lead held a grudge against him, and he died horribly beneath a flurry of clubs.
When Gu Baichuan opened his eyes again, he had become that doomed supporting character. To give his family a happy ending, he had to get ahead of the male lead and leave him nowhere to turn!
But that beautiful big sister from the woman-dominated kingdom was so gorgeous. As a shy homebody, he couldn't handle it!!! Big Sister, look at me!!!
P.S. The storybook the heroine reads doesn't reveal the domineering male lead's golden finger.
Theme: Face each day of life with optimism!
