The Villain Forbids Switching Targets

Zhu Chaonian transmigrated into a xianxia novel to win over the villain. In the end, her mission failed, and she died at the villain's hands.

In her next life, the transmigration bureau sent a new guide to take her place. She was forced to remain in this world, becoming an awkwardly placed bystander.

After her previous life, she reflected deeply and decided to stay away from the villain. She kindly warned the new guide, "Don't be fooled by the villain's outward appearance. He seems easygoing, but he's actually vicious and cruel, a complete wolf in sheep's clothing. Getting close to him is dangerous."

The new guide scoffed. "Just because you couldn't do it doesn't mean I can't."

Having given her warning, Zhu Chaonian settled down to lie flat and be a lazy fish. One day, the new guide's attitude suddenly changed, and she came running to ask Zhu Chaonian for help:

"The villain likes spicy food."

Zhu Chaonian told her the truth, but the new guide accused her of lying.

That ridiculously spicy mountain plums that no one could eat? The villain said he'd only try one, then ate the whole lot himself!!!

The new guide wanted to create a chance to be alone with the villain, so Zhu Chaonian, feeling like a third wheel, went to help her senior brother, who was troubled by love.

The new guide took the opportunity to sow discord. "Niannian and her senior brother grew up together. She must really like him."

"Is that so?" Ye Yunzhe looked at Zhu Chaonian laughing and chatting with her senior brother, and said calmly, "Her taste hasn't improved..."

But the dagger in his hand pressed harder, and the wooden doll's head tumbled to the ground.

Zhu Chaonian suddenly felt a chill at her neck! It looked like she needed to stay even farther away from the villain.

Instead, the villain grew more and more irritable, showing signs of going off the rails ahead of schedule.

Meanwhile, the progress bar remained stuck, and the new guide panicked. "Niannian, can you bring this bowl of soup to Yunzhe?"

That night, Ye Yunzhe barged into Zhu Chaonian's room. His breathing was ragged, his whole body feverish. His burning body blocked her in the doorway, and he was furious enough to lose his mind. "Zhu Chaonian, do you think that if someone gives me a little kindness, I have to be grateful and fall in love with her?"

His warm breath brushed Zhu Chaonian's ear. She trembled all over and heard Ye Yunzhe say, word by word:

"If you want to go home, keep trying to win me over. I won't accept anyone else. I only want you."

Later on,

Ye Yunzhe placed a dagger in Zhu Chaonian's hand himself. "Niannian, if I die, you'll be able to go home."

Note:

*In their previous life, the male and female leads were separated by a misunderstanding. The female lead has always retained her memories, while the male lead gradually regains his.

*The female lead transmigrates in her own body. The setting inevitably involves competition between women, though only one-sidedly on the supporting female character's part. Please skip this if that bothers you~

Coming soon: After Being Possessed, I Became My Rival's White Moonlight

Li Jin had her body stolen by a transmigrator.

To win over the villain, the transmigrator disregarded Li Jin's arranged marriage to her rival and eloped with him. Her rival was humiliated because of "her" and eventually hated her so much that he killed "her" with a single sword strike.

After the transmigrator disappeared, Li Jin was reborn in her rival's courtyard, inside a puppet made in her likeness.

The puppet was covered in wounds, with gashes everywhere.

She was already dead, yet her rival had made a puppet just like her to torture and vent his anger on. Li Jin cursed him: "What a lunatic! How much could he possibly hate her?"

Hearing footsteps approach, Li Jin feared her rival would discover she was still alive and kill her again, so she bolted.

But this body was too weak. She barely made it a few steps before her rival caught her...

She thought her rival would kill her, but he kept doing strange things to her:

Every day, he summoned her to "share his bed." The more she resisted, the more excited he became. As if he had a masochistic streak, he lovingly caressed her face and murmured, "A Jin, I've missed you so much."

She tried to escape again, climbed over a wall, and fell to pieces. Her rival rushed over like a madman and held her in his arms in terror. "A Jin, don't leave me. I can't take it."

Once he had calmed down, he would hide away in his room day and night, repairing her.

Aside from forbidding her from going out whenever she pleased, her rival indulged her in every other way. There was only one room he had declared off-limits, and she was strictly forbidden to go near it.

One day, she accidentally broke into the room. It was packed with puppets that looked exactly like her, covered in talismans for summoning the dead.

Her rival rushed in without warning. His sharp features were swallowed by the shadows as he approached her step by step, sword in hand.

Li Jin cowered in a corner, nervously swallowing, certain she was finally doomed.

But her rival dropped his sword. His fingertips moved slowly over her face, inch by inch, as if she were a priceless treasure he longed to touch but feared breaking. A sick, obsessive fixation shone in his eyes:

"I meant to keep it from you and destroy them all. Now that you know, why don't you stay by my side forever? A Jin, I had to beg so hard to get you back. I won't let you leave me again."

A cold, distant beauty in public, but a love-mad, obsessive romantic in private x a sunny girl who alone considers the childhood friend secretly in love with her to be her rival
