The Substitute Turned Out to Be Me

Before going to sleep, Jiang Qi read a novel. The male lead, Fu Ye, was a misanthropic madman who raced toward the destruction of his country every day, killing people and wiping out entire families at the slightest provocation. The palace attendants around him died again and again, yet he doted exclusively on the heroine, who shared Jiang Qi's name. The two were lovey-dovey for hundreds of thousands of words, only for the ending to suddenly take a turn:

"A Qi, for all these years, I have never stopped wanting to kill you." Fu Ye's gaze burned with madness. His hand trembled as he stabbed her, overcome with excitement.

Oh! So in the crazy male lead's eyes, the heroine was just a substitute. The reason that jerk hadn't killed her earlier was so he could cut out her heart to cure his one true love!

Jiang Qi: Damn it!

Still seething with resentment toward the author, Jiang Qi woke up to find herself lying coyly in a cold embrace.

Fu Ye's face was dark as he irritably glared at the detestable woman who had deliberately fallen into his arms.

"Stop trying to seduce me." With that, he tossed Jiang Qi away in disgust.

Jiang Qi: ...

This... seems to be the scene where the male and female leads first meet...

You little bastard, surely it can't be this much of a coincidence?

A goofy comedy, a groveling-to-win-her-back romance, and a male lead with the highest standards of male virtue
