As someone who transmigrated into a book, Shi Yun had a conquest script in hand, and the first living person she met here was her target.

Shi Yun: Don't worry, leave it to me. I'll definitely mess it up!

Only when she was dangling over the edge of a cliff did she finally understand how important it was to have a good start.

Song Linxian mused, "What do you think would happen if I just let go?"

The cliff was so high that Shi Yun froze. Just end me.

Obviously, Shi Yun's target was a ruthless villain who stopped at nothing. Normal healing tactics wouldn't work, so Shi Yun took the most hopelessly cheesy route to flirt with him:

"There's a kind of wine in this world you've definitely never tasted."

"Our wedding wine."

"I've taken a fancy to you. Put aside your shyness and marry me at once. Don't put up a futile struggle."

As for why marriage had to be involved, Shi Yun had no idea. She just wanted to flirt shamelessly.

With no hope of success, Shi Yun resolutely focused on her career, until she somehow ended up in the bridal chamber.

The wedding candles blazed as her veil was lifted, and her startled gaze met the man's icy eyes.

He leaned down slightly and said in a low voice, "Now you want to back out?"

Shi Yun: "I was just wondering how someone could be so handsome. Turns out he's my husband. Then there's no problem."

Later, to make sure no one died, she took the perfect hit for everyone, and the System sent her away.

At the same time, the villain revealed the darkness beneath his dark exterior.

After the System crashed, it sent her right back to the villain.

That day, the whole city was locked in fierce battle. Gray bricks and green tiles turned to ash, and bodies lay buried beneath the snow.

The usually ruthless, indifferent man knelt in the snow. When he looked up, his eyes held a trace of brokenness and pleading. "Could you please not leave? Even if you keep lying to me... that's fine too."

Shi Yun, who had just transmigrated back: ???

Just like that, she went straight from being a winner in life to reaching the pinnacle of success.

[Healing puppy-like sweetheart x beautiful, tragic, unhinged young marquis]

1. A slow burn, with the focus on romantic tension. They each pursue and save the other. The characters may drift a little from their intended personalities as I write. His unhinged side shows in his willingness, as a man in power, to ruthlessly use every pawn and disregard the people's safety. He's simply a hidden power supremacist, nothing more. He is absolutely not a yandere! All the characters have flaws. (If anything seems off, it's simply because the author's not very smart. Don't read if that bothers you.)

2. Set in a fictional world, with loads of original worldbuilding. Don't overanalyze it; let's all just have fun.

3. There is some political intrigue and household drama, but it's mainly sweet romance.

4. I started writing this a while ago, and it's taken a long time. A lot of parts aren't very good, but I'm working to improve.

5. Pirated versions may differ! Thank you to everyone who supports the official version! (/^▽^)/

-- Coming Soon: The Old Flame I Took Back Turns Out to Be the Emperor --

Ming Wan transmigrated into a book, arriving just as she was confessing to the adored male lead. He gazed at her with the kind of tender look he could give even a tree stump. But Ming Wan had no interest in becoming another fish in his pond. She took a deep breath, pulled out a megaphone, and shouted, "Taking back old men, rotten men, stinky men nobody wants!"

Then she pointed at the most handsome young man in the crowd of onlookers.

She'd decided on him.

At first, she followed him around and tried to win his favor. The young man was pretty cool and paid her no mind. Ming Wan thought: You always want what you can't have. Someone who doesn't like you is the real challenge.

Next, she saw him snap someone's neck with one hand. It was a bloody scene, and the chuunibyou boy even declared, "The world will be mine sooner or later!" But then he set his sights on her, watching from the crowd. Ming Wan dutifully praised him: "Wow." Then she knocked herself out with a brick and pretended nothing had happened.

Xiao Yanxing: ...Maybe one of us is a little crazy.

Everyone has a duty to save a chuunibyou. When she tried to win him over again, she found that the boy was still keeping a straight face, though the tips of his ears had turned a suspicious red.

Later, he left without a word, and Ming Wan could only conclude she'd given her heart to the wrong person.

Then Ming Wan received an imperial decree summoning her to the palace for the selection of consorts.

The best of the Thirty-Six Stratagems is to run.

The night she climbed over the wall, fallen maple leaves covered the ground outside the city, and a dark line of people blocked her way.

The young man approached one step at a time and pinned her against a late-autumn maple tree.

Ming Wan's gaze shifted from the ornate dragon patterns on his brocade robe to his beautiful, refined face.

He did look a little familiar.

Her parents, afraid she'd say something inappropriate, helpfully made things worse. "Daughter, don't be foolish. Running off won't bring that heartless man back to marry you in that sham wedding! You might as well accept your fate!"

Ming Wan's heart gave a thump.

Xiao Yanxing leaned down and asked through gritted teeth, one word at a time: "Heartless man?"

Ming Wan said nothing, but her heart was in turmoil.

His cool, elegant face suddenly bloomed with a smile whose meaning was hard to read. "I've come to fulfill our marriage agreement, so..."

"Why don't you stop running?"

Ming Wan froze.

Could someone tell her how the old flame she'd picked up had turned into His Majesty the Emperor?

---- My Fake Romance with the Male Supporting Character Turns Real ----

Lin Wuyou has decision anxiety and often makes choices by spinning a wheel, so when the System tells her to play a spinning-wheel game, she says, "Piece of cake."

Until the choice in front of her reads:

[H: A proud, headstrong young general, born with an arrogant streak, but wonderful to you.]

Lin Wuyou slowly types out a question mark.

That's right, this young general is her new good-luck charm. As long as she stays close to him, she can escape her cannon-fodder fate. Their relationship may be a hundred thousand miles from close, but at least they have a childhood betrothal to fall back on.

The story gets off to a comical start. The two, who can't stand each other, each raise a ladle of wine to toast this disgraceful excuse for a marriage. They look less like a couple getting married and more like sworn brothers. Then they agree on three rules:

One: Mark out a boundary, and sleep in separate beds.

Two: Once outside the room, make up and act like a loving couple who never doubt each other.

Three: Give each other enough space and don't interfere in one another's affairs.

Later, Lin Wuyou learns she can choose between love and their relationship. As long as the relationship remains, she can keep scraping by. Tired of acting out their roles day after day, she starts hoping the young general will hurry off to the border.

At last, the general picks up his luggage, ready to leave home and head off on a long journey. Lin Wuyou wipes away nonexistent tears at the corner of her mouth. "Have a safe journey, dear husband..."

Once she sees him disappear into the courtyard, her eyes curve with delight. Finally, the guy's gone.

But when she turns around, she walks right into his amused gaze.

The young general naturally takes her hand. "It seems I forgot something. I came back to look for it, and sure enough, I was right."

Lin Wuyou looks around. "What did you forget?"

He Yan lifts her chin and turns her toward him. "Can't my wife figure it out?"

Only later does she realize that the young general doesn't seem to go to the southern frontier as often anymore. Instead, he comes home frequently and particularly loves dropping by her room.

The young man, whose body and heart have both been stolen, struts in front of her like a peacock in full display. She thought she was the one seducing him step by step, never knowing that he had willingly played along all this time, just waiting for their fake romance to become real.
