Li Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book as Zhao Qingzi, a cannon-fodder villain. In the original story, Zhao Qingzi is beaten to death for plotting against Qi Zan’s beloved, then dumped in a mass grave.
Zhao Qingzi swears to herself that if she doesn’t court death, she won’t die. She decides to become a nun on the spot and save her own life. But the System kindly reminds her: “Dear, you can’t run away. If you don’t complete your mission, you might die.”
To complete her mission, she clings to Qi Zan, acting meek and submissive as she puts up with endless bullying, until she’s practically a ninja turtle. She helps Qi Zan avert disasters and even takes a blade for him, nearly losing her life. In return, he treats her like a bargaining chip and sells her off to the deranged Zhao Hansheng. He tells Zhao Hansheng, “She’s just a household slave. Don’t worry, I won’t give her a second thought.”
Later, amid the chaos of war, the male lead falls into dire straits. Zhao Qingzi drags the barely breathing Qi Zan out of a mountain of corpses and starts a new mission farming in the mountains.
When the village women ask about Qi Zan, Zhao Qingzi says, “He’s my live-in son-in-law. His surname is Li, and his given name is Shi.”
The male lead tormented her a thousand times, so now she makes him take her surname and uses him, humiliating him in turn.
The old Zhao Qingzi was beneath Qi Zan’s notice. The Zhao Qingzi of today is far beyond his reach.
The wheel of fortune turns. Let it turn hard in her favor.
Blurb Two:
Once, Qi Zan thought of Zhao Qingzi as his dog.
Even when she risked her life to save him, all he saw was a good dog that deserved a few extra bones.
Later, when he becomes Li Shitou, he’s willing to be Zhao Qingzi’s vicious hound. If anyone crosses her, he’ll bite them, and he doesn’t even need her to toss him a bone.
A mischievous take on the blurb
(Open this story like a live-in-son-in-law novel)
This concubine’s life is over. The three-year term has ended. Welcome back, Your Majesty!
Content warnings: (1) The writing has an old-fashioned style, and the heroine has many golden fingers.
(2) The male lead is a greasy, overconfident man, a violent brute, and dark and cruel inside.
(3) The second male lead is a psychopath (literally). There is no chance of him becoming the male lead.
(4) The romance has a bad ending, while the career storyline has a happy ending.
The cover was made and gifted by Boshui user Bu Ai Shuohua de Guojiu. It’s exactly how I imagined Zhao Qingzi. It’s so beautiful, thank you!

Shen Woyu was just one step away from ascending to immortality when she was struck dead by heavenly lightning during her tribulation.
By an unlikely twist of fate, she binds herself to a System and travels between worlds, bent on forcefully claiming vicious male supporting characters and clearing away the obstacles in the protagonists’ love stories.
The vicious male supporting character is ruthless? She’s even worse.
The vicious male supporting character is cold and heartless? She’s even worse.
World One: A ruthless, ungrateful empress vs. a treacherous rebel who usurps the throne
He loves power, so she becomes power incarnate.
“Your Majesty, do you have even the slightest genuine affection for me?”
“No.”
World Two: A cold, selfish, worldly medical sage vs. a killer driven mad with obsessive love
“I’d kill anyone for you.”
“Then kill yourself.”
World Three
A cold-hearted, short-lived beloved vs. a gloomy obsessive who collects replacements
“You’re all I need. I only want you.”
“I’d be better off without you.”
World Four: An icy, powerful master vs. a lowly disciple who’s ruthless and even more ruthless
“Master, I’ll turn away from evil and devote myself to good for you.”
“Not necessary.”

Asked what love is, Shen Woyu replies:
“Love is ripping someone apart, destroying everything, and claiming the person even if you can’t claim their heart. It’s carving my name into every bone in their body. I’ll stop at nothing and leave no room to turn back. I don’t want a sky of love. I want a sea of hate.”
Theme: If you lack love, there’s hope. If you lack morals, there isn’t
People who lack love can be saved, but people who are wicked cannot! One word, absolutely! Made me laugh so hard hahaha
This article is well written. It can be seen that the author has a certain literary background. Although there are some typos, it is still relatively comfortable to read. At first I thought this article was of the "anti-crematorium" literature type, but I didn't expect it to be an article that jumped out of this pattern. The ending seemed a little rushed and the pace was a bit fast. I think it's great to have a sequel. After seeing Zuo Hua and knowing the beginning, he felt even better. Even though it was a doom for him to meet Xiao Xiao, he still gave his all for her. The relationship between the system and Xiao Xiao is really hard to get tired of (???).
This is so painful that I feel heartbroken and beat my chest.
Haha, I want to see how this stupid male protagonist dies!
Take a fancy to pre-collection, rubbing hands, etc.
I cried, what a big knife
I cried when I saw it. Even though I had expected it, it was still quite uncomfortable.
Zhao Hansheng: Finish the fight quickly, I want to go back and continue licking!
Zhao Qingyi should also be free. Men cannot trap her.
I always feel that Yu Xin is full of flags
