Honey, Why Are You a Man?!

A new novel is now underway, A Transmigrator's Guide to Staying Alive. The blurb is at the end.

Blurb:

In his previous life, Lin Jing was disfigured and left with a limp after saving his brother and sister-in-law from a fire.

They showed no gratitude. Instead, they treated him like a beast of burden and ordered him around.

After being disfigured, Lin Jing knew he had no hope of marrying. He could only hope that one day, when he was old, his nephew would support him. So he worked without complaint to provide for his brother, sister-in-law, and their family.

Later, after his nephew passed the provincial examination and became an official, he took Lin Jing to his post and tricked him into pretending to be a servant to lend the Lin family prestige.

Everyone knew the Lin family had an ugly, disabled servant who was skilled and fiercely loyal. He protected the whole family, learned all sorts of trades, and earned them plenty of money to spend on their pleasures.

Unfortunately, the family was never satisfied. They thought the county magistrate's salary was too low and that Lin Jing did not earn enough, so they took the irrevocable path of extorting the people.

After failing to talk his brother, sister-in-law, and nephew out of it, Lin Jing refused to become complicit in their crimes and decided to divide the household and return to his hometown.

He wanted none of the money or property. He only asked to be free.

Only then did he discover that the despicable family had once sweet-talked him into letting them keep his identity token, and had actually registered him as a slave.

Now they clutched his contract and refused to let him go, tormenting him in every way.

In the end, Lin Jing set fire to the county magistrate's mansion, where fine wine and meat stank behind its vermilion gates, and perished alongside the family of dogs who had ruined his life.

Reborn, he watched coldly as his brother and sister-in-law struggled in the flames. Even his nephew's heart-wrenching cries left him unmoved.

Once it was over, Lin Jing split from the ungrateful family.

He then spent the last few taels of silver he had to buy a gravely injured, disfigured woman from a slave broker as his wife, and took her into the mountains to become a hunter.

His wife was tall and long-legged. Once the wounds on her face healed, she was stunningly beautiful. Apart from being half a head taller than him and mute, there was nothing wrong with her.

They lived wonderfully together. He hunted while she made clothes, and their sweet life made everyone around them envious.

What outsiders did not know was that his wife was so charming and lovely, but when she took off her pants, she was even bigger than him!

He had bought his wife, so he couldn't return her. He could only swallow his tears and accept it. He had bought his wife, so he couldn't return her. He could only swallow his tears and accept it.

A sweet, mutually doting, slice-of-life romance.

Blurb for the new novel:

Xie Ling stayed up all night reading a transmigration novel.

The transmigrator shared his name, so he had assumed that someone had already transmigrated into the book and that there was no chance he would face the same risk. He read the whole thing carefully.

The original was a classic power fantasy cultivation novel, following an overpowered male lead as he grew stronger. The 'Xie Ling' in the book knew the plot and devoted himself to stealing the protagonist's resources, smearing his reputation, and ultimately trying to kill him and strip him of his spiritual roots for good.

In the end, 'Xie Ling' was killed in a desperate counterattack by the original protagonist, and they died together.

A transmigration novel that made no sense.

Xie Ling angrily hurled his phone aside and cursed the stupid author. Then, with a sudden crunch, he got hit by a car while picking up his phone and transmigrated into the book.

He became the 'Xie Ling' in this very transmigration novel. The moment he opened his eyes, he met the teasing gaze of the darkened, reborn 2.0 version of the overpowered male lead himself.

Xie Ling: Well, damn~

Fortunately, with everyone watching, the overpowered male lead didn't immediately stab him to death. Great, there's still hope!!!

The 2.0 version was ruthless and vicious, chopping down demon beasts as easily as slicing melons, and plotting against his enemies as casually as eating. Xie Ling watched him in action several times and trembled in fear. He had to sleep with one eye open every night, and during the day he stuck with his fellow disciples, never letting himself be alone.

Whenever he got the chance, he worked on winning the male lead's favor. He wasn't hoping to become brothers with him; he just wanted 2.0 to put away his murderous intent.

But as he kept working on it, he went too far. The male lead not only stopped trying to kill him, but even stepped in front of him to protect him whenever he was in danger.

Good brother!! I knew all that love I gave you wasn't wasted! Xie Ling happily patted the male lead's shoulder.

Then he looked straight into those deep eyes, filled with affection.

Xie Ling: ???

P.S.

1. The author is a hopeless student. Feel free to point out any mistakes!

2. Kind words make good connections; cruel words hurt. I know my writing isn't great, so there's no need to tell me if you're dropping the novel. Sending hearts~

3. This is a fictional world, so fictional it's practically empty. The timeline is loosely based on my completed novel, I Raised Two Hundred Thousand Border Troops by Farming. Anything that doesn't make sense is my own creative license!!!

4. Before it goes premium, I'll post three chapters a day. Afterward, I'll guarantee three and aim for six. I won't abandon the story, so come on in!

5. The cover shows the top. This is not an mpreg story, though the leads may adopt a child later.

Theme: Love life and be kind to yourself.
