I Transmigrated into a Book and Stole the Male Lead's Scenes

[A wildly playful, cute-and-sultry second-generation heiress transmigrates into a book as the pursuer]

VS

[A serious, rigid, hardworking woman who has suffered abuse, reborn as the one being pursued]

Nuo Xi is a professional trust-fund kid who excels at eating, drinking, and having fun. Even after transmigrating into a book, she doesn’t change her ways. Seeing the heroine suffer all kinds of abuse in the original story while the hero does nothing, she declares:

Nuo Xi: Out of the way! Let me handle this!

Nuo Xi had been fuming ever since she read the book. On her very first day after arriving, an accident happened, and from then on she clung shamelessly to a gentle, abstinent beauty. If Buddha stood in her way, she’d kill Buddha; if a god stood in her way, she’d kill the god!

She helps rip apart workplace schemers, outsmarts awful relatives online, and kicks no-good scumbag men to the curb. A loli’s body, a mature woman’s heart: the Nuo Xi brand of protective charm is just what you need!

Yan Wen: I used to think the world was nothing but darkness. I never imagined that just one person could light up my entire future.

Nuo Xi: I came for you, and nothing can stop me!

Hot-tempered mermaid (merfolk) [Ao You] vs. easygoing illustrator [Fu Zixu]

Fu Zixu is a listless, single young woman with an artsy streak. She lives alone and has nothing but a jingling empty purse. Then, one rainy day, she finds a mermaid named Ao You. From that day on, she’s even poorer...

Ao You belongs to the merfolk, an extremely rare and noble-blooded race from the deep sea. One day, she leapt out of the ocean and swam happily through the torrential rain, never expecting to reach a lightning rod and get fried into a charred fish.

The worst part came afterward. After getting fried, Ao You tried to summon her people to rescue her, but they never came. Instead, some lunatic showed up, snatched her and took her home, then insisted on calling her a mermaid!

Little skit:

Q: Any tips for raising a mermaid?

Fu Zixu: Oh, cook the food first. She’ll eat anything, meat or vegetables, whatever we have.

Ao You: !! Is it really that I’ll eat anything? Can you even afford meat?!

Q: How did you find...

Ao You: She didn’t find me. She stole me! She snatched a fish right off the street!

Fu Zixu: Maybe it’s because I’m always so kindhearted.

Q: What’s a mermaid’s temperament like?

Fu Zixu: A little dense, not exactly cute. I suspect this might be a stupid fish, though I don’t really know how smart fish are.

Ao You: ...Shove that up your three-hundred-and-sixty-degree Thomas-the-Tank-Engine-spinny butt!

Ao You: And another thing, I’m not a mermaid. I’m merfolk! Merfolk!!

Reader’s guide:

★1. The story is entirely fictional, with heaps of original worldbuilding.

★2. Ao You really is merfolk, the half-dragon, half-human kind. Being struck by lightning weakened her powers, temporarily leaving her with a fish tail. [Bold and underlined: This is part of the author’s original setting.]

★3. Haven’t thought of anything else yet. I’ll add more when I do.

Blurb warnings: 1. The pursuer transmigrates into a book; the one being pursued is reborn.

2. I’ll add more when I think of it.
