Gu Lan receives a mission:
Enter an old-fashioned melodramatic novel and save the heroine, whose life was ruined by the unhinged male lead.
World One: The Runaway Bride Is Pregnant
[The heroine, a top student, is tricked by a friend into going to a bar. After losing her virginity and getting pregnant, she misses the college entrance exam.]
The heroine breaks down crying outside the door. Inside, the male lead laughs in a low voice:
“Teacher, you’re a lot more satisfying than that wet-behind-the-ears student of yours.”
World Two: The Female Top Scholar
[The heroine disguises herself as a man to take the imperial examinations. The Prince Regent discovers her identity and threatens her into a life of round-the-clock… activities.]
The heroine kneels outside the study, waiting to be summoned. Inside, the Prince Regent slowly runs his hand over a writing brush.
“Your Majesty, if you want to protect your prized student, you’ll have to pay a price.”
World Three: The Demon Lord’s Beloved
[The heroine is born with a sword physique, which the Demon Lord steals from her, setting off a tragic romance.]
The heroine leads a band of sword cultivators into the Demon Abyss. At its depths, the Demon Lord kisses her white hair.
“Immortal Venerable, your disciples and their disciples have come looking for you. Dare you let them see you like this?”
…
“Get away from me! Let me go! Please, just let me go!”
These lines come up over and over during Gu Lan’s quick transmigration missions.
Everyone thinks he’s enduring humiliation for the greater good. Only the System knows he’s having the time of his life.
[How do you end up in the male lead’s bed every time you save the heroine?]
Gu Lan: “I have no idea. He’s the one who pulls me in. What should I do in the next world… Ahem, I mean, what’s the mission?”
System: “…”
