Lu Yuanyuan is the innocent, fragile heroine of an old-school angst novel. She's pure, she's delicate, and she's always being misunderstood and hurt.
Pei Sinan is the domineering, invincible male lead of an old-school angst novel. He's overbearing, he's powerful, and he's always finding new ways to torment the heroine.
The innocent heroine seems to be made of water. Her pale face is forever streaked with tears. When people misunderstand her, she doesn't explain herself; when they hurt her, she still shines her saintly light upon the world.
The male lead is overflowing with domineering charisma. His handsome face has been frozen in a permanent scowl since early on. He's supposed to be a genius, but whenever the heroine is involved, his reasoning goes out the window. His IQ never rises above that of a three-year-old!
After barely surviving the apocalypse, Lu Yuanyuan read this post-apocalyptic novel before bed.
Not for any particular reason, just because it was rated for adults.
The heroine, who shares her name, will be passed from one powerful man to another, suffer physical and emotional torment, and finally kill herself when she can no longer bear the humiliation. Only then will the male lead come to his senses and follow her in death. That's right, this novel has a tragic ending.
Lu Yuanyuan: ...A harem ending would be better.
She never expected that she'd close her eyes and open them again to find herself in the heroine's body, bound to the [Adoration] System, and switched bodies with the male lead.
And so...
When food runs short, Pei Sinan, who originally declared that useless people shouldn't get any food, gives his own portion to Lu Yuanyuan. Despite the grim look on her face, he speaks gently: "If you eat, then it's as if I've eaten."
When Lu Yuanyuan is harassed by a bully, Pei Sinan, who would originally have walked away without a second thought, suddenly steps in front of her. Ignoring her attempts to stop him, he declares righteously, "Don't touch her! If you've got the guts, come after me!"
When other powerful men demand Lu Yuanyuan, Pei Sinan, who originally said he couldn't care less, suddenly runs after her and clings to her leg, gazing up at the twitching-lipped girl with heartbreaking devotion. "Don't go. You... are my life."
Everyone: ...
That doesn't count as love?
He loves her so much!
He's even willing to break character just to love and cherish her!
