[The Male Lead Is a Goofball Even After Turning Evil] [The Heroine Is Both Timid and Brave]
Shi Yuan transmigrates into a book. In the story, she's a stand-in for the beloved darling of her sect, the one everyone adores. Just like every clichéd plot, after the darling returns, Shi Yuan will grow jealous and hateful, turn evil, and court death until the male lead runs her through with his sword, earning the double achievement of stand-in and cannon fodder.
Shi "Voldemort" Yuan: You want me to die? No way!
On her very first day as a stand-in, Second Senior Brother Lian Yebei grabs Shi Yuan by the throat. Then she hears an anxious electronic voice: Wait a minute! Boss, you can't kill her! If she dies, you won't survive either!
Shi Yuan gets it. The book's evil second male lead and antagonist has somehow been bound to a System and tasked with winning her over!
Shi Yuan is relieved: At least he can't kill me. Don't panic, Yuanyuan. You can do this. You can lie low!
Then Shi Yuan hears the System again: If you're going to kill her, at least win her over first. Kill her after you complete the mission.
Shi Yuan: Back! Back! Back!

When they first meet, Lian Yebei grabs his target by the throat. "This is the idiot you want me to win over?"
Shi Yuan's affection for you: -10, -10, -10...
Shi Yuan's fear of you: +10, +10, +10...
The System looks at the numbers, on the verge of tears. "Boss, this secret identity is probably a lost cause. Why don't you try a different one?"
Lian Yebei is confident. Lian Yebei is full of himself. He's handsome, powerful, considerate, and thoughtful. There's no way Shi Yuan won't fall for him!
He pulls out all the stops, and then...
Shi Yuan's affection for you: -10, -20, -30...
Shi Yuan's fear of you: +10, +20, +30...
Lian Yebei, growing ever more murderous: She must not have a heart!
The System reminds him timidly: Boss, could you try to win the girl over in a more normal, human way?
Lian Yebei huffs and goes online with a new secret identity!
Unaware of the world's cruelty, Shi Yuan cuddles, kisses, and nuzzles the fluffy little creature, lifting it up in the air. Then she hears a familiar System voice: Boss, see? I told you girls love cute little bunnies!
Shi Yuan's pupils tremble with shock! This soft, white bunny is Lian Yebei?
Shi Yuan: Back! Back! Back!
But there's no way she's backing off!
In his rabbit form, Lian Yebei often snuggles in Shi Yuan's arms, actively begging for kisses, cuddles, and to be lifted up. He's so shameless that even the System can't bear to watch. Then he finds out that Shi Yuan saw through him from the very beginning, and he is utterly devastated.
Lian Yebei: This person is dead. Burn some paper offerings if you need anything.
Shi Yuan hugs Lian Yebei and plants a big kiss on him, consoling him: Congratulations! You've won me over!
