After I Transmigrated Into a Book, I Accidentally Won Over the Psycho Male Lead

Su Ningqing transmigrates into a book as a cannon-fodder supporting woman with the same name in a male-oriented novel. The original owner was an unloved daughter born to a concubine, married off by her family as a second wife to a sickly man over forty. But before they could even exchange wedding bows, the man suddenly died of his illness. After her engagement was broken off, she was forced to become an old man's concubine, and was eventually tortured to death.

Su Ningqing transmigrates into the book right in the middle of her wedding feast, just after her groom has kicked the bucket from a serious illness.

To survive, Su Ningqing drops to her knees in front of the male lead, Lu Qizhi, and boldly offers her services. "Master Lu, I can cook, do laundry, and clean. Please take me in!"

Lu Qizhi looks at Su Ningqing, who is crying pitifully, and remains unmoved. "But I don't need another maid to do the cleaning."

Remembering all the ruthless tactics Lu Qizhi uses in business in the original book, Su Ningqing grits her teeth. "I can also keep accounts and manage a shop. If you take me in, I'll definitely be able to help you in the future!"

At that, Lu Qizhi narrows his eyes slightly. "Oh? That's an interesting claim. And what if you're of no use to me at all?"

Su Ningqing looks straight into Lu Qizhi's eyes, ready to face death. "You can do whatever you want with me!"

Later, Su Ningqing not only helps Lu Qizhi solve all sorts of difficult business problems, but also takes care of every aspect of his daily life.

Thinking that even if she hasn't earned merit, she's certainly worked hard, Su Ningqing summons her courage and asks Lu Qizhi, "Master Lu, when do you think I might get my contract of indenture..."

Lu Qizhi lets out a cold laugh and corners her against the wall, threatening her gently. "I took you in, so you're mine for the rest of your life. Isn't that right?"

Su Ningqing is so frightened that she hurriedly agrees. "Yes, yes, yes! I'll belong to you for all eternity, Master Lu!"

Because of his status as an illegitimate son, Lu Qizhi has lived a hellish life since childhood. Even after the Lu family took him back at the age of ten, not a single person in the household, not even the servants, thought much of him. If the Lu family hadn't had few male heirs, most of whom were sickly, how would they ever have remembered that he existed?

Lu Qizhi endures humiliation in the Lu family and finally becomes its head at the age of twenty. Then, at his eldest cousin's wedding, he meets Su Ningqing...

At first, Lu Qizhi only thinks she's interesting and keeps her around as someone to tease for fun. Who knew that keeping her would last a lifetime...
