After Being Forced to Win Over the Green Tea Male Lead (Reborn)

[Next up: The Goal of Transmigrating Into a Book Is to Become Empress]

Yan Liqing, a cannon-fodder female character in The Cute Junior Sister and Her Cold Senior Brother, is reborn.

She also has a System in her mind.

This is bad.

Because the System belongs to the heroine.

The System, having lost its heroine, immediately switches sides and asks Yan Liqing, "How about you try winning over the male lead?"

Yan Liqing: ?

System: The goal is to make your target fall in love with you. You don't have to fall in love with him.

System: You can even dump him the moment you complete the task.

System: He looks like he really wants you to win him over. Don't you want to give it a try? He's easy to win over!

Yan Liqing: ...

Do you hear yourself?

Forced to begin the task, Yan Liqing is told to prepare a delicious meal for the hungry male lead.

She serves him a bowl of steaming, watery broth with noodles that snap at the slightest touch. The male lead tries a bite in silence, utterly defeated by her cooking.

Then he says, "...Senior Sister, let me do it."

She plucks a handful of wildflowers by the road and gives them to him.

The male lead is deeply moved. "Senior Sister, you love me so much."

She shares a candied hawthorn with him.

The male lead is deeply moved. "Senior Sister, you love me so much."

She finds a wild fruit for him.

Lying in his sickbed, the male lead is deeply moved. "Senior Sister... you... love me so much..."

She gives the male lead a kiss.

The male lead is deeply moved. "When are we getting married?"

This has gone way beyond him being easy to win over.

A beautiful, oblivious, tsundere cannon-fodder senior sister X a sharp-tongued, jealous junior brother who's a green tea both from afar and up close

The Goal of Transmigrating Into a Book Is to Become Empress

Cheng Shining wakes up one day to find herself in the body of the daughter of the Minister of Justice of the Kingdom of Nanqi.

The original owner is a hopeless romantic who does countless stupid things to win the crown prince's favor. Her actions get her whole family sentenced to exile, and both her parents die on the way.

When Cheng Shining first transmigrates, the original owner has spent the entire night kneeling in the rain, begging her father to speak up for the crown prince. The sight makes her father relent and forces him to take the crown prince's side. The night in the rain also leaves her with a chronic illness and a frail constitution.

Cheng Shining: ...

Whoever wants to kneel can kneel.

If the crown prince dies, what does that have to do with her?

Cheng Shining has been standing in the rain for just two seconds when she quickly gets up. As her maid lifts an umbrella to shelter her, Cheng Shining bolts away and runs straight back to her room.

Her father thinks she'll settle down after that, but a month later, an imperial decree arrives at the Cheng residence, betrothing her to the Kingdom of Nanqi's Third Prince, Fu Shen.

Her father trembles as he holds the decree. "Do you know what kind of man the Third Prince is?"

"I do," Cheng Shining answers calmly. "He's not a good person."

But throughout history, no one who founded an empire was a good person.

Cheng's father laughs, his trembling hands finally settling from sheer excitement. "Ha ha ha! My good daughter!"

Cheng Shining: ??

Though their marriage is a political alliance, Fu Shen does an excellent job of keeping up appearances. He sends so many betrothal gifts that they fill the main hall. Cheng Shining leans over three chests of jewelry, happily picking through them.

Just then, the crown prince storms into the Cheng residence and demands, "Cheng Shining, if you said you loved me, why are you engaged to my third brother?!"

Cheng Shining gives him a proper curtsy, both hands still clutching the gold ingots Fu Shen sent. She sighs. "Your Highness, let the past drift away with the wind."

Later, Fu Shen and Cheng Shining join forces to eliminate their rivals and win people's hearts. He earns military merit in the campaign against Northern Zhou, reforms the court, abolishes the position of crown prince, and lives up to everyone's expectations by ascending the throne.

Fu Shen takes her to visit the deposed crown prince in prison and shows off their affection. Then he asks her, "Didn't you tell him to let the past drift away?"

Cheng Shining: "The past can drift away. The person can't."

Theme: Become a better person and discover a more beautiful world.
