Betrayed by an Honest Man, the Sensitive and Suspicious Sword Cultivator

A timid, secretly sneaky heroine x a cold-faced, dark-hearted, deeply suspicious hero

----Synopsis----

From the start, an honest girl transmigrates into the role of a fox spirit who has to seduce a cold, aloof sword cultivator.

Although the young sword cultivator before her is irresistibly alluring, with his white robes hanging open, black hair spilling loose, and a gloomy expression, his eyes reddened at the corners as he fights through his discomfort,

Shen Hui is so honest that she can barely bring herself to look at him.

Terrified, she squeezes her eyes shut and cowers in a corner all night, listening to Mu Zhengyin's pained moans, without daring to move.

But the next day, rumors spread that she and the young prodigy Mu Zhengyin had spent the night alone together. The great cultivation clans all put pressure on him, insisting that Mu Zhengyin give this unknown orphan girl an explanation.

Under pressure, Mu Zhengyin takes her in.

But he treats her like she's invisible. Even when they happen to cross paths, he makes no effort to hide the coldness and contempt in his eyes.

But when they live under the same roof, how can they avoid seeing each other? And Shen Hui has a succubus mission to complete. To keep the System from abandoning her in this terrifying world, she forces down her fear and carefully begins to carry out her tasks.

The System tells her to seduce him by getting wet. So when Mu Zhengyin is drinking tea, she pours a cup over herself. She barely manages to complete the task. Fortunately, the young sword cultivator only furrows his delicate brows. He doesn't get angry.

The System tells her to say something steamy in front of Mu Zhengyin.

She stammers timidly, "I... like... you. Don't... you go disliking me."

[...Please don't speak in your hometown dialect.]

Shen Hui asks nervously, "You didn't say I couldn't. Does that count as a success?"

The System replies helplessly: [I... guess so...]

After finishing the task, she nervously looks up at Mu Zhengyin, only to find the young sword cultivator lost in thought, his expression unreadable.

The System gives her more and more tasks, and every time she has to rack her brains just to scrape by...

Meanwhile, as they spend more time together, Mu Zhengyin seems to realize that she's not a bad person. Gradually, though she isn't sure if it's just her imagination, she feels like he's treating her much better.

Until one day, Mu Zhengyin falls under a charm spell again.

Shen Hui is anxious and frightened. She wants to find someone to save him, but Mu Zhengyin, flushed and feverish, pulls her into his arms instead.

The young man's body is burning hot. His usually cold, restrained eyes now reveal an undisguised obsession. His warm breath brushes her ear as he speaks in a low, hoarse voice, almost pleading: "Huinian, could you... be a little more proactive?"

Shen Hui looks at him with clear, puzzled eyes. "Young master, proactive about what?"

Mu Zhengyin's expression darkens for a moment. He abandons his usual pride, bends down, and bites hard into her neck.

After that night, Mu Zhengyin announces to the world that she is his wife.

He is as cold as ice outside, but clingy to an almost excessive degree at home, often doing things that make Shen Hui blush.

But the good times don't last. To advance his cultivation, he plans to travel the world and enter seclusion for three years.

A friend warns him, "Do you know, some cultivators travel for a year... and their Dao companions... end up cheating on them..."

Mu Zhengyin only laughs in disdain, confidently declaring, "Huinian is honest and devoted. She loves me more than life itself. She'd never do that."

But barely half a month after he leaves, he suddenly runs into danger and vanishes without a trace.

Even the System thinks he's dead.

Shen Hui looks distraught. Her seduction score hasn't reached one hundred percent yet.

The System thinks it over. [...You can switch to a new target.]

Shen Hui asks in surprise, "I can do that?"

With no other choice, she puts on a brave face and nervously tries to seduce a new target to complete her mission.

But before she can even sneak a taste, someone sees her and spreads the news far and wide.

The cultivation world curses her for being unfaithful to her husband and mourns the "deceased" Mu Zhengyin. His friends even spit abuse at her.

But two days later, Mu Zhengyin, who was rumored dead, returns. Seeing his wife condemned by everyone, he immediately pulls Shen Hui into his arms and attacks the crowd. "My Huinian is honest and pitiful, and you bullied her while I was away. I won't let a single person here get away with it."

The immortals, beaten half to death, wail: "Damn it! The cold, heartless sword cultivator is a hopeless romantic!"

Seeing that Mu Zhengyin really means to avenge her, Shen Hui doesn't want the guilt of having harmed anyone. Trembling, she tugs at his sleeve and says weakly, "Th-they weren't wrong..."

She will never forget how Mu Zhengyin's usually gentle, warm expression suddenly turned sinister and terrifying when she said those words.
