[Salvation + Possessive Love + Redemption Showdown]
Song Xingwan was the top performer on the Salvation Team of the Transmigration Bureau. Just before her vacation, she suddenly received an urgent mission from the neighboring Corruption Team.
"All you have to do is make him fall into darkness. Any means will do."
Got it.
So after transmigrating into a book, Song Xingwan expertly showered the pitiful boy with love and care, doing everything she could to protect him beneath her wing.
When his eyes slowly changed from wary resistance to trust and dependence, Song Xingwan knew the time was right.
The sharp blade pierced flesh. A rush of scarlet blood flowed from his chest and climbed into those long, narrow eyes.
Disbelief, disappointment, hurt...
Under his dark, brooding gaze, Song Xingwan swiftly pulled out her sword.
His tender dependence turned completely into cold hatred.
The mission could not have gone more perfectly.
As Song Xingwan heard the System announce that the corruption mission was complete, she made her escape back to the Bureau without a moment's hesitation.
-
After returning, Song Xingwan was just about to have her mission results evaluated when she was suddenly told that a major anomaly had occurred in the mission world, which had rebooted itself.
"The mission progress is back to zero. You'll have to go in and do it again."
?
"It's fine. Just follow the same strategy as before, and we'll give you double the reward when you get back."
Fine, then.
Song Xingwan transmigrated into the book for a second time and followed the same steps, showering the pitiful boy with love and care.
But as she continued, she noticed that the way he looked at her seemed a little off.
It was complicated, unfathomable.
Song Xingwan grew uneasy and repeatedly checked with the System, but all she got in response was that a report had been sent to the main System and they were waiting for a reply.
Until the night before the betrayal scene, when she drank the tea a maid brought her.
As a blush crept across her cheeks, sweat dampened her dress, and feverish heat and panic filled her mind, a pair of large hands silently seized her waist from behind.
Behind the red gauze curtains, a faint fragrance drifted in the air. Song Xingwan was forced to fall against a broad, sturdy chest.
She looked up in terror, and there before her was the breathtakingly handsome face of her target!
His eyes were as dark as ink. He easily disarmed her, removing the dagger she'd hidden behind her back, then brushed his cool fingertips over her trembling lashes. His voice was hoarse, almost a sigh. "I gave you a chance."
"Wanwan," he pressed closer, his lips touching her sweat-damp temple. His voice was soft and cruel. "You can't get rid of me."
"From the moment you wiped the blood from my face,"
He brushed away the tear at the corner of her eye, his touch tender, while his gaze churned with a thick, world-destroying darkness.
"You were destined to stay by my side."
!!!
Song Xingwan was completely panicked.
She was certain her target had been reborn.
Someone, please save her!
-
He Qinian grew up in the cold, dark mire of the netherworld, steeped in cruelty and malice.
Everyone called him a heartless harbinger of disaster. They avoided him, wishing they could be rid of him for good.
He had thought the only pleasures in life were killing ants and fighting for power.
Until he met Song Xingwan.
No one knew that in both his lives, all he wanted was to have her. He would use every means at his disposal to get her.
Even if she was despicable and hypocritical, and didn't love him at all.
