All the Tragic Heroines Ran Off with the Villains

Every tragic romance novel has a miserable heroine who suffers both physically and emotionally. Then, one day, they all break free from the shackles controlling their thoughts and start doing whatever they please. They decisively dump the original male leads and plan to live beautifully on their own, never expecting to be swept away by the scheming, possessive villains.

P.S. The heroines are different people, and each has her own love interest. The male leads are not quite right in the head.

(The heroines in these worlds are all controlled by the plot. A System visits each world to help them, but that's a side plot and doesn't appear often. The order of the worlds may change.)

Su Yuanyue and her best friend transmigrated to an ancient dynasty in an alternate world. To keep their identities hidden, her friend had been dressing as a man for years, so the two of them simply pretended to be a married couple in public. Their life together was going fairly well.

That is, until one day, her friend brought home a severely injured man, dressed in fine clothes and so handsome that it was obvious he came from a distinguished background. The two planned to care for him properly, exchange the favor of saving his life for a sum of money, and then take their leave.

Who could have guessed that from the moment they took him in, Su Yuanyue would be plagued by terrifying nightmares every night? Whenever she showed the slightest discomfort, the man would suffer a sharp pain in his chest, sometimes even vomiting blood on the spot.

They were clearly born to clash. The two were so frightened that all they wanted was to send him away.

But the handsome man lowered his eyes and clutched her sleeve, confessing in a hoarse voice, “Whenever I see you, Madam, my heart races wildly. I suppose it must be love at first sight.”

“?!” No, seriously, you were just vomiting blood. How about getting your head checked?

It wasn't until her long-sealed memories suddenly returned that Su Yuanyue realized this was already her third reincarnation.

In her first life, she and her best friend transmigrated to ancient times and, by a twist of fate, saved Chu Yunjin. But he repaid her kindness with betrayal, taking her by force and keeping her locked away in the imperial palace for the rest of her life, where she died in misery.

In her second life, she returned to the modern world and learned that she was merely a character in a book, and that her beloved best friend was actually the villain who opposed the male lead on her behalf.

In her third life, she had somehow returned once more, only to discover that the man had gone even crazier.

She dodged him at every turn, afraid of provoking this madman and trying to change the plot that had already been set in motion, but she still couldn't escape her fate.

With nowhere else to turn, she could only visit Chu Yunjin again and beg him for help, already prepared in her heart to repeat the tragedy of her past life.

Who would have thought that he would simply lift her chin gently, his voice tender, his possessiveness impossible to conceal? “Madam, would you let me be your lover on the side?”

Su Yuanyue: “Huh?”

Ignoring her shock, the man continued to plead softly for her love. “I ask for no title, only that you show me some tenderness, Madam.”

Su Yuanyue: “?!”

Oh my God, you scared me.

As the heir to the throne, Chu Yunjin had spent half his life amid blades and bloodshed. Only once had he let his guard down and suffered a serious injury, and that was when someone saved him.

A gentleman should repay kindness with kindness. Instead, he shamelessly set his sights on someone else's “wife,” wanting to take her for himself.

The imperial family was best at fighting over what it wanted. Even if she was already married, she could still divorce her husband. A mere marriage in name was no obstacle to him.

Unfortunately, his beloved avoided him as if he were a snake or a scorpion. Every time she rejected him, his heart felt as though it were being torn apart, the pain almost unbearable.

For now, all he could do was yield and find another way to stay by her side.

He would start by becoming her lover on the side, keeping her company every day until she developed feelings for him. Then he would get rid of the eyesore standing between them: her “husband.”

P.S. Both leads are each other's only partners.
