The Heroine Is Lusting After Me!

After learning that she had become the white lotus younger sister who had impersonated the heroine in a melodramatic xianxia romance and met a tragic end, Xie Yushuang decided to run away that very night.

Luckily, the neighboring Spirit Plant Peak was recruiting new disciples.

As a secondary peak whose business had been siphoned off by outside sects, Spirit Plant Peak was poor and remote. Its disciples were all weaklings, the kind of nameless cannon fodder who appeared in the original story.

Xie Yushuang was very pleased with the place.

She could grow spirit flowers and herbs, feed rice grown with spiritual energy to a few chickens, ducks, and geese, and live like a carefree immortal, all while escaping the original story's fatal ending.

Before running away, she felt sorry for the heroine, who was about to suffer both physical and emotional abuse, and gave her a warning.

"Sis, stay away from anyone named Chu in the future."

The girl ignored her, so she pressed on.

"I heard he pulls out people's bones and tendons to make pipa lutes!"

The girl inside the room stirred.

"And he's got demon blood! He's seriously twisted, and he likes drinking people's blood!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the door flew open with a bang.

Her sister, beautiful as a celestial maiden and as aloof as the moon in the highest heavens, looked at her coolly and asked in a cold voice:

"You're going to Spirit Plant Peak?"

"Take these."

Taking the spirit-cleansing solution and insect repellent her sister handed her, Xie Yushuang felt a little touched.

No wonder the heroine in the original story was beautiful and kind. She didn't hold a grudge at all. What a wonderful person!

To repay her sister, Xie Yushuang went down the mountain every month to bring her spirit herbs. She also helped clear her sister's name whenever she was framed in one of the original story's plotlines.

Seeing her sister grow less and less cold, and look at her with warm affection, Xie Yushuang was delighted.

Today's sisterly love: achieved!

-

For the first seventeen years of his life among humans, Xie Xingcan hid his identity perfectly.

Until one day, his nominal stepsister showed up and shouted:

"He's a demon! He pulls out people's bones and tendons to make pipa lutes!"

Xie Xingcan, who really had pulled out demon bones and tendons to make pipa lutes: "..."

He crushed star-demon flowers into juice and added it to the spirit-cleansing solution used to grow spirit plants, then sent it out.

He waited leisurely for the star-demon flowers to bloom and devour her.

Ten days passed. Xie Yushuang was still alive.

Twenty days passed. Xie Yushuang was still alive.

A month later, Xie Yushuang excitedly brought him a whole tableful of star-demon flowers.

"Sis, where did you buy this spirit-cleansing solution? It's amazing! The spirit plants mutated!"

Xie Xingcan: "..."

-

Xie Xingcan at first:

She guessed my secret.

She's threatening me.

Later:

Idiot.

...Never mind. I'll keep her.

Later still, when the male lead showed up at her door,

he shielded her behind him and said emphatically:

"Mine."

The male lead came to confront Xie Yushuang after learning the truth about the impersonation: ???

Brilliant but absent-minded human spirit-plant cultivator × ill-tempered, cold-hearted demon

Sweet girl × cool guy

P.S.:

1. A fun, stress-relieving story. The plot and romance get equal attention, with career and friendship storylines mixed in. Slice of life, slow burn.

2. The male lead cross-dresses as a woman early on. The male and female leads are not related by blood.

Theme: Break free from the plot and live happily
