This Widower Is Just My Type

Gui Dongtang transmigrates into the body of a sickly beauty, the kind who coughs up blood three times with every step.

But her powerful adoptive parents want to bring her good luck by arranging marriages, and have four husbands carried in with a fanfare.

Gui Dongtang lifts the first red veil. Beneath it is a Taoist priest covered in wounds, with disabled legs, who will one day become an Immortal Venerable. At this moment, his face is full of resentment as he lowers his eyes in humiliation.

Gui Dongtang's fingertips tremble.

Gui Dongtang lifts the second red veil. Beneath it is a dark-skinned, big-breasted demon seed with two horns on his forehead, who will one day become the Demon Venerable. His hands and feet are bound, his eyes bloodshot, and he looks like he wants to strangle her.

Gui Dongtang's hands tremble.

Gui Dongtang lifts the third red veil. Beneath it is a half-demon with animal ears on his head and a tail behind him, who will one day become the Demon Emperor. He wears a collar that seals his demonic power and curls his lips in a cold smile, as if to say, I'll remember you.

Gui Dongtang stumbles.

Gui Dongtang lifts the fourth red veil. "Wait, Cousin, how did you get sent here too?"

The legendary wolf in sheep's clothing, the world-destroying demon lord, has possessed the body of her adoptive mother's cousin. He smiles faintly. "Room and board included. I volunteered."

Gui Dongtang's head stops hurting and her legs stop aching. The invalid slips on a pair of FitWalk shoes and turns to run, sprinting like a champion.

Because the System has shown her how her story originally ends.

Gui Dongtang has eaten charcoal-grilled chicken hearts, four on a skewer. But in the original story's ending, she, the wicked female supporting character, fares worse than even those grilled chicken hearts.

All four husbands get their revenge, each plunging a sword into her heart.

To escape that tragic original ending, Gui Dongtang can only spend time with the chosen ones and collect their energy after binding herself to the System.

Her four husbands aren't the only chosen ones. There's also her master, a young wandering swordsman she meets on an adventure, a dashing swordsman she encounters in a duel...

Once her energy is full, Gui Dongtang immediately fakes her death and escapes this world with the System.

But later, circumstances force her to return to this world.

A full three thousand years have passed, and the chosen ones who once hated her to the core have all become powerful figures.

The System tells her that to leave again, she must collect energy the same way as before: she has to seek out the enemies who once sought revenge on her.

Gui Dongtang nearly cries. She has no choice but to hide her identity and seek out the men who once wanted to cut her into a thousand pieces.

But to her shock, they don't hate her at all. In fact, they think of her day and night, calling themselves Gui Dongtang's widowers and believing themselves to be her bereaved husbands. For three thousand years, they've remained faithful to her.

Gui Dongtang: Oh wow, she's become the early-departed white moonlight of this group of widowers.

Old friends, your hair has turned white, and you've weathered the world. I don't dare hope we can start again.

Theme: Unwavering devotion.
