Zou Qiao, a lifelong single, was being pressured to marry for the ninety-ninth time and was about to lose her mind. In desperation, she blurted out, "I like handsome men who can have children. Can you introduce me to one?" That instantly shut up the marriage-obsessed relatives.
Zou Qiao was hit by a chandelier. When she woke up, she had transmigrated into a sci-fi novel as a female Enigma, at the very top of the gender hierarchy.
Zou Qiao thought, A female Enigma can get male Omegas, male Betas, and even male Alphas pregnant! Woohoo! Here I come! The whole interstellar world is full of fish for me to catch! Delighted, Zou Qiao turned around and ran smack into a gorgeous male Alpha.
Zou Qiao: "!" Can men really be this beautiful? I want him to have my baby!!
The man's attendant hurried over and asked, "Your Highness Xingxiu, are you all right?"
Zou Qiao's face instantly fell. So he was the novel's tragic villain prince. What a waste of beauty, how tragic! Remembering the villain's ruthless methods in the book, she decided it would be best to keep her distance.
.
After enrolling in the Interstellar Academy, Zou Qiao discovered that she shared a dorm room with the villain.
Remembering how the villain in the original story killed without blinking, she started losing sleep every night with him sleeping in the bed beside hers.
Three days later, Xingxiu looked at the dark circles under Zou Qiao's eyes and asked with concern, "Zou Qiao, are you having trouble sleeping at night?"
"Zou Qiao, here, this should help you sleep."
Zou Qiao thought to herself: Oh god, please don't let it be poison...
And so, from then on, Zou Qiao got the villain's bedtime-soothing service. At first, Zou Qiao was scared half to death, but later...
The villain was clearly a little angel! So cute! I want to squish his cheeks!
.
Later, during the interstellar war and the struggle for control of the throne, Prince Xingxiu was exiled to a remote planet. He vanished for ten whole years.
When Zou Qiao saw Xingxiu again, he had become the powerful, terrifying villain described in the book, the kind everyone feared and wished they could kill, yet no one could defeat.
But in front of her, Xingxiu was still that same little angel. Zou Qiao said, "What's so scary about our little prince? Those old officials who throw their weight around are just a bunch of hypocrites."
Xingxiu used an iron fist to reclaim his throne. He stood with a sword in hand, surrounded by rivers of blood and heaps of corpses.
The new emperor's eyes were cold and murderous. No one dared to look into those beautiful, star-like eyes.
But whenever the new emperor saw Zou Qiao, his gaze held the spring breeze of March and rain in the sunshine.
Zou Qiao met Xingxiu's eyes across a sea of corpses that had stopped breathing. She stumbled backward in fear. For the first time, she saw a broken look in those usually calm eyes.
Heartbroken, Zou Qiao agreed when a friend invited her to a matchmaking party. Thinking back to when she had first arrived in this world, she decided she would rather spend the rest of her life simply, finding a young, handsome male Omega. Secretly loving someone like Xingxiu, who bore a blood feud, was too painful.
When Xingxiu heard Zou Qiao was going on a date, he hurried over.
Everyone ran away in terror. Xingxiu swept Zou Qiao, who had been trying to flee with the crowd, into his arms. Tears fell onto her shoulder as he said desperately, "Qiaoqiao, anyone can be afraid of me, but you can't be afraid of me."
Zou Qiao steeled herself to end this doomed relationship. "But I want to marry an ordinary Omega, have a child, and live a simple, happy life."
Xingxiu: "Qiaoqiao, I can have little princes for you too."
Zou Qiao froze.
What do you do when the person you've secretly loved suddenly confesses and says he'll have your children?
Xingxiu: "I'll have two for you."
Zou Qiao lost the ability to think...
The guards who had seen how terrifying the new emperor could be: "!!!" They were about to faint from fright...
.
Zou Qiao didn't know that everything about Xingxiu that made people tremble in fear was done to help him reach the pinnacle of power and protect the girl he loved most. No one could hurt her.
