The day after quitting her job and going home to become a full-time daughter earning a hundred thousand a month, Qiao Xi transmigrates into a book.
She lands in an old-fashioned, melodramatic angst novel as a disposable stand-in for the original heroine, who faked her death and ran away while pregnant.
The original male lead and his friends imprison her, while the vicious female rival resents her and takes every chance to frame and scheme against her. Unable to bear the humiliation, the stand-in eventually turns evil. After the heroine returns with her genius baby, she tries to harm her, only to be killed by the male lead and his friends.
The story’s biggest villain is the male lead’s older brother. He is powerful and handsome, with an air of austere elegance and abstinence. Beneath that dignified exterior lies the twisted, ruthless, unpredictable nature and methods of a tyrant.
System: You need to…
Qiao Xi: I’m tired. Not listening. Keep that little mouth shut.
System: ?!
When Qiao Xi arrives, she’s being worked like a pack mule at the company of the story’s biggest villain. Faced with an offer from the male lead to become his stand-in, she goes berserk in front of everyone and shoves his head into the toilet.
“I’ve seen people piss in a toilet, but never seen it flow into someone’s brain. Why not snip it off with a pair of scissors? Then you can pee like this from now on.”
Then she charges straight at the big villain and knocks him down.
“I hear you’re frail, short-lived, impotent, and rich. You’re perfect husband material for me.”
Big villain: ?
Qiao Xi goes from an ordinary wage slave to a winner with a net worth of trillions. She lives in the big villain’s sprawling mansion, sleeps in his bed, and has him waiting on her hand and foot, lounging her way into a life people can only look up to.
Everyone: ???
Oh no! Has the vicious tyrant been brainwashed and bewitched by a seductive woman who fell from the sky?
Qiao Xi: No. I’m just a lazy fish through and through.
Unhinged, lazy-fish heroine x tyrant villain male lead (apricot-addicted version)
Plot first, romance second. There’s a scum-punishing rivalry and a love triangle. The men get tormented, and tormented badly. The original heroine is not vilified. The original vicious female rival has one of two endings: if she refuses to change, the heroine will eliminate her; if she awakens to herself, she’ll turn from evil and become a normal person who follows her own nature instead of treating revolving around a man as her “life’s mission.”
