After Marrying the Villainous Chancellor in My Brother's Place

My upcoming book, The System Says I Chose the Wrong Target to Win Over: A chatty System tells me I've been pursuing the wrong person??

The Gu family had fraternal twins, a boy and a girl. The elder brother, Gu Yan, was frail and sickly, and was raised in Jiangnan, where no one knew of him. His younger sister, Gu Que, took his place at the Imperial College and even passed the highest imperial examination.

The Gu and Yan families had arranged a betrothal when the children were young. Yan Luo, the Chancellor, was to be her sister-in-law, and the family told Gu Que to marry her in her brother's place.

Before she entered the bridal chamber, her parents warned her again and again: Don't take off your clothes to sleep, and don't let Chancellor Yan discover you're a woman.

Gu Que was a Taobao merchant from the twenty-first century who accidentally transmigrated to the Great Wei dynasty. She still had a Taobao shop in her mind.

Chancellor Yan sat on the bed, her skin like ice and jade, her hands slender, with clearly defined knuckles. Gu Que walked over and asked, "Your hands are so pretty. Can I put some nail stickers on them for you?"

Afterward, several little tigers adorned the nails of the usually cool and reserved Chancellor Yan.

Later, to avoid taking off her clothes and consummating the marriage, Gu Que came up with a different way to coax Chancellor Yan every night.

"Chancellor Yan, would you wear a school uniform? Everyone wears them where I'm from. You have a great figure, so you should give it a try."

"Chancellor Yan, it's a long night. Would you like some milk tea?"

"Chancellor Yan, it's so quiet tonight. Let's share an ice cream."

*Both leads are sexually inexperienced. Marriage first, love later.

*The sickly possessive Chancellor Yan Luo VS the sweet, gentle, obedient little Lord Gu.

Gu Jinse had a twin brother who had spent years studying hard. Two months before the metropolitan examination, he ran off with a songstress, so the family sent Gu Jinse to the capital to take the exam in place of her hapless younger brother.

On her first day in the capital, she got lost and wandered into an alley, where she saw a woman lying on the ground, her face flushed, brows furrowed as she groaned softly. It seemed someone had drugged her.

Gu Jinse approached, and the woman stared fixedly at her. When Gu Jinse reached out, the woman bit her wrist. Gu Jinse told her, "We're both women. What are you afraid of?"

The woman was beautiful, with a graceful, jade-like figure. Gu Jinse had been bitten hard, so she decided to bite her back. How unfair! Why should she get bitten for helping someone?

The alley was dark and eerie, with wolves ahead and tigers behind, so Gu Jinse took the woman to an inn and only left the next day.

Half a month later, the metropolitan examination began. Gu Jinse entered the examination hall nervously, only to run into the woman from the alley at the entrance to the examination compound.

The woman looked at her. "Before the exam, you have to take off your clothes for inspection to see if you're hiding anything."

Gu Jinse didn't believe her. She had read cross-dressing novels for years, and not one had said candidates had to strip for inspection during the metropolitan examination. The woman was just using her position to get revenge!

The woman reached out and touched her cheek. "Are you going to take it off or not?"

Bonus scene:

The princess said that Top Scholar Gu had bullied her and wanted to take her back to the palace to answer for it.

Chancellor Ming stopped her and explained gently, "Your Highness, my husband is timid. Please don't bully her!"

Gu Jinse was dumbfounded. "How did I become your husband?"

Chancellor Ming took Top Scholar Gu home, warning her along the way not to flirt with other women, then added, "I'm pregnant!"

Gu Jinse flew into a rage. "You're lying to me! I'm a woman. I can't get anyone pregnant!"

*Chancellor Ming is not pregnant.

*Both leads are sexually inexperienced.

Theme: Be honest with each other, and life will be beautiful.
