Xie Jinxiao transmigrates into a novel aimed at male readers, in the role of the female character who breaks off her engagement. She is told she must follow the plot and break off her engagement to the male lead by the deadline, or she'll die.
The original character looked down on the male lead for his impure bloodline, low aptitude, and uselessness. When he came to see her, she humiliated him mercilessly. In the end, the male lead returned stronger than ever, joined forces with his underlings, and killed her. It was a truly miserable fate.
Xie Jinxiao: ...This is freaking terrifying.
She has transmigrated to two days before the male lead is due to visit. After thinking it over, Xie Jinxiao decides that when she breaks off the engagement, she'll take the blame and say something nice. She absolutely must not humiliate him, or she'll end up with a gruesome fate.
But she waits and waits, and the male lead never shows up. With the deadline getting closer, Xie Jinxiao has no choice but to say goodbye to her 280-square-meter mansion and her sweet, attentive maid, pack her things, and set out to find him.
Along the way, she meets several incredibly powerful teammates, as well as a delicate, beautiful feather (elf) clan man who is utterly helpless in a fight but secretly wicked beneath his gentle exterior.
Her teammates lecture her earnestly: “Don't fall for a useless feather clan member, A Xiao. Don't let his looks fool you.”
Xie Jinxiao, blinded by his beauty: “Whether he's useless or not doesn't matter. The important thing is that he's handsome!”
Just as Xie Jinxiao is about to forget why she left home in the first place, spending every day eating, drinking, slacking off, and occasionally flirting with the handsome man, she suddenly receives a letter from her family saying that the male lead is coming to see her!
She immediately leaves a note, runs off on the spot, and hurries home to face the male lead, who has arrived late.
Xie Jinxiao: “Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river. Never bully a poor young man. I've already said your line for you, buddy. Now hurry up and break off the engagement.”
The man in front of her lifts his hood, revealing the familiar face of a delicate beauty. His eyes curve with a smile, and his pale golden pupils are full of tender affection. “A Xiao, I've come to fulfill our engagement.”
Xie Jinxiao: ???
Chosen One, gentle on the outside and dark within, scheming and cunning, mixed-blood feather clan archdemon king x Bystander, queen of setting herself up, survival instincts at full throttle, famous rich beauty of the cultivation world
Note: A lighthearted, absurd comedy written for fun and stress relief. The plot goes wherever inspiration takes me, but the sweet romance between the leads remains the same. No secondary couples.
Set in a fictional world with plenty of original worldbuilding, blending Eastern and Western elements. I don't care what you think, I care what I think. A fantasy world inspired by Eastern mythology should have beautiful feather (elf) clan members with pointy ears and huge wings, too.
Theme: Don't be afraid when trouble comes. Face it with a smile!
