After a Female General Transmigrates into a Whimpering Crybaby

My upcoming novel next door, The Domineering Villain and the Charming Fortune Teller, is open for preorders. Please add it to your collection!

[This novel goes premium starting with Chapter 23. If you've already read it, there's no need to buy it again.]

Blurb:

Ye Shaowan is the only female general in the Great Yan Empire. She commands an army of two hundred thousand troops guarding the border, and remains unmarried until her death.

Her greatest regret is never getting to see the scholar in the capital one last time.

When she opens her eyes again, she has become a no-talent, eighteenth-tier actress who can do nothing but whimper.

Able to take an enemy's head with her martial skills and versed in the Four Books and Five Classics, Ye Shaowan says: No problem. Stay calm, we've got this!

System: Warning! The Host has only seven days left to live!

Ye Shaowan: ?

On a survival reality show, just as Ye Shaowan rolls up her sleeves, ready to get to work, she looks up and sees Ji Sui'an approaching against the light.

Ye Shaowan: ?? What the hell? Why is my beloved here too?

System: Keep up your helpless, whimpering persona and win Ji Sui'an over to earn fate points and extend your lifespan.

Ye Shaowan: What a deal!

And so...

"Captain, this tree is so tall. I'm scared, whimper~"

"I hate snakes and bugs the most, whimper, whimper~"

Netizens swarm the comments to bash Ye Shaowan: Get lost, you whimpering pest!

But after they watch the live-streamed show...

Ye Shaowan helps the guests breeze through every task. She can leap up trees, kill snakes with her bare hands, and even run across water using lightness skills!

Fans: She's, she's got some serious skills. Teacher Ye, are you taking students?!

After the show, Ye Shaowan is invited to appear in a film...

Her haters are back with more abuse: This box-office flop of a pretty face should get out of the entertainment industry!

Unexpectedly, after the film's release, her portrayal of a female general takes the screen by storm, sending ticket sales and her fan count soaring.

Fans: Help! Wanwan is so cool, I love her!

One day, a behind-the-scenes clip from the film appears online.

Ye Shaowan, dressed in armor and sitting astride a horse, flourishes her red-tasseled spear with a dazzling flourish. She smiles cheerfully at Ji Sui'an, who holds a fan. "Seasons come and go, autumn brings harvest and winter brings rest. Young scholar, we have all the time in the world."

That night, Ji Sui'an reposts the clip with the caption: My great general.

Upcoming novel: The Domineering Villain and the Charming Fortune Teller

Blurb:

Shi Yu has scraped by in the apocalypse for many years. Then, in a single moment, she transmigrates into a book and becomes the cannon-fodder female supporting character who gets married off to the villain.

Not only will the male and female leads use her as a stepping stone to success, she'll eventually die alongside the villain.

Shi Yu, who has a spatial ability and a spiritual spring: ...Cherish life, stay away from the plot!

But after marrying the villain, Shi Yu spends every day scheming to make money and run away. Then she discovers, to her horror, that some people in the book are exactly like people she met in the apocalypse!

Having spotted a business opportunity, Shi Yu uses the spiritual spring to keep Gu Xingzhi alive, while making a name for herself among the powerful by posing as a heavenly master.

A small-time star who's always seeing ghosts: Heavenly Master Shi! I'll bring you clients from the entertainment industry!

A rich wife with family troubles: Leave the wealthy families' business to me!

A big-shot CEO who's lost his fortune: Master, is this enough money? If not, I'll transfer more right away!

Shi Yu: Don't ask. I've just heard too much gossip in the apocalypse.

She counts money until her hands cramp, always ready to kick the ailing Gu Xingzhi to the curb.

Until one day, the male lead shows up at her door, utterly distraught: Master Shi, save me!

Jealous Gu Xingzhi puts one arm around his wife and slams the door with the other: Can't save you. You'd better get buried sooner rather than later.

Ever since Gu Xingzhi married Shi Yu, his legs stopped hurting, his heart stopped racing, and he even became able to hear his wife's thoughts.

Not long after the wedding.

Shi Yu: Boohoo, Gu Xingzhi, you absolutely mustn't die.

[The sooner you die, the sooner you'll be reborn, honey! I've got the spiritual spring anyway, so even if you die, I won't!]

Gu Xingzhi: ??

Almost half a year into the marriage.

Shi Yu: Boohoo, Gu Xingzhi, someone bullied me.

[If I weren't trying to keep up my crybaby act, I'd have beaten you all until you were crying for your mothers!]

Gu Xingzhi: ...?

Gu Xingzhi is surprised. His delicate, teary-eyed little crybaby doesn't seem to be what he imagined.

When he hears Shi Yu planning to get a divorce, he immediately takes to his bed, trying to save their love before it falls apart.

The heavenly master, Shi Yu, comes home during a rare break from her busy schedule. Seeing Gu Xingzhi leisurely drinking spiritual spring water in bed, she says coolly:

"Sure, but that's going to cost extra."
