The Stray Puppy I Picked Up Is Acting Strange

=Sweethearts, check out my upcoming story, The Crematorium Is Unavoidable~ Blurb at the bottom↓↓=

Gu Miao transmigrated into a book.

Gu Miao bound herself to a System.

The System made Gu Miao go broke.

[System notification! Your balance is too low. Earn silver immediately!]

Gu Miao: Stop rushing me, I'm earning it.

Then Gu Miao discovered that this System was basically an excavator on her road to riches.

The kind that digs up the entire road and leaves nothing behind.

When Gu Miao found out that Brother Wang, the pig butcher in the east of town, had a cheating wife:

[System notification! Please send streamer "Butcher Xiao Wang" the gift "Green Helmet." Gift cost: 10 taels of silver.]

Butcher Xiao Wang: What do you mean by that?

Gu Miao: ...That's not what I meant.

When the bandits who had captured Gu Miao smashed a brick with their bare hands to intimidate her:

[System notification! Please send streamer "Fake Bricks, Buy One Get One Free" the gift "Weakling." Gift cost: 6 taels of silver.]

Bandit: Are you provoking me?

Gu Miao: ...Let me explain.

When a handsome, gravely wounded young man lay on the ground, on the verge of death

[System notification! Please send streamer "I'm Innocent and Easy to Bully" the gift "Antidote Pill." Gift cost: 100 taels of silver.]

Gu Miao: I didn't mean to... Wait, did I send the right gift this time?

From then on, a sweet and obedient little puppy was always at Gu Miao's side.

Later, Xia Ran, the little puppy who had always followed Gu Miao around, was exposed.

It turned out he was the legendary cold, ruthless, and merciless young master of the Demonic Cult.

He was also Gu Miao's immediate superior, the one who loved squeezing every last bit of work out of his employees.

Gu Miao: Never mind. I don't want this little puppy anymore :)

Unexpectedly, Xia Ran shed his usual obedient demeanor, cornered her, and breathed warmth against the tips of her ears.

"Miaomiao, you can't abandon me."

#A STREAMING SYSTEM, THE SHAME OF THE SYSTEM WORLD

[Reader's Guide]

1. First time for both leads, happy ending, sweet romance. Feel free to dive in~

2. Set in ancient times. The "streamers" are designated by the System, and they don't know it! They're just ordinary people who live in the book! (Important!)

3. The female lead transmigrates into the book in her own body. She doesn't take over anyone else's identity. She's an undocumented outsider in this story.

Upcoming Story

Yan Zhi woke up one day to find she had transmigrated into a xianxia novel she'd read years ago.

The story was an old-fashioned pursuit-after-the-breakup tale where the female lead suffered first and the male lead suffered next. Neither of them was allowed to be happy.

And she had become the female lead, who was tortured physically and emotionally in the early chapters.

But as the story went on, something seemed a little off...

The original story said: The female lead was framed by the villainess and abandoned by everyone. The male lead stabbed her, breaking her heart, and she eventually chose to fake her death and leave.

Yan Zhi had already reached the point where everyone had abandoned her.

But for some reason, Pei Mo didn't follow the plot. Instead, he killed everyone who had hurt her, then gently gathered her into his arms.

"Zhizhi, don't be afraid. I'm here."

With rainwater and tears streaming down her face, Yan Zhi cried miserably and said in a heartbroken voice

"After all this time together, one word from her was enough to outweigh everything between us. Fine! If you all choose to believe her, then kill me with your own hands and put an end to my hopes once and for all!"

Pei Mo: ?

Yan Zhi: Sorry. You may be allowed to go out of character, but I don't think I am.

Pei Mo had finally managed to take the person babbling nonsense home, only for her head to loll to one side and her breath to stop.

Pei Mo: ...

Yan Zhi: Sorry. You may have derailed the plot, but I think the pursuit-after-the-breakup arc still needs its funeral.

Later, when Yan Zhi saw Pei Mo again, she hardly recognized him.
