The Supporting Female Lead Ran Away with the Female Lead

Pretty, insecure puppy x sunny heroine who loves pretty faces

When Shen Yuzhong transmigrated, she discovered she had become the vicious female antagonist in a melodramatic story.

In the book, she was the legitimate wife of the heir to the Marquis of Yongchang. She repeatedly framed the mute heroine, Rao Qianqian, driving a wedge between her and the heir and putting them through a torturous romance. In the end, when the heir learned the truth, he flew into a rage and tortured her to death.

When she woke from the dream, Shen Yuzhong was drenched in cold sweat.

She was furious. What kind of affection was this? Did she really have to fight for it?

Fortunately, the story had yet to begin. She quickly came up with a plan to stay alive!

So, at first light, Shen Yuzhong dressed neatly and went to the small courtyard next door, full of sincerity and ready to offer comfort.

The knock rang out, followed by light footsteps.

When she reached the door, she nervously summoned her courage and knocked. The moment she looked up and met the heroine's reddened, tearful eyes, her cheeks turned scarlet.

Shen Yuzhong: The heroine may be meek and vulnerable, but she's so beautiful. The villainess can take a hike. I'll protect the love between sisters.

From then on, whenever the mute heroine was bullied, she went after the culprits. Whenever the mute heroine was hurt in love and cried, Shen Yuzhong marched into her room with a pillow to comfort her. She even rushed to speak on her behalf because the girl couldn't talk...

The two grew closer and became inseparable, and life began to look up.

Who could have guessed that after the Mid-Autumn Festival, a wave of arrests and confiscations would engulf countless people, including the Marquis of Yongchang's household?

On the night of the raid, the little mute grabbed her and tried to make her flee. Shen Yuzhong hurriedly flung her hand away, about to say she still had some private savings to gather.

Suddenly, a stabbing pain shot through the back of her neck, and everything went black. Just before she passed out, she saw the seemingly delicate young woman looking at her with an aggrieved, resentful gaze.

When she opened her eyes again, she was inside a carriage, with Rao Qianqian beside her, dressed in a dashing man's outfit.

Seeing her wake, Rao Qianqian looked as if she were about to speak, but tears came first. Then a low, warm male voice reached her ears. "Sister Shen, are you really so reluctant to leave that good-for-nothing heir?"

"A man!?" Shen Yuzhong was struck like lightning at the sound of his voice. Then she shuddered and fainted again.

Shen Yuzhong couldn't understand. How had her soft, sweet little cupcake turned out to be a man?

Bonus Scene:

The undercover agent Rao Qian had failed his mission, so he used the opportunity to infiltrate the marquis's estate and gather evidence.

That night, the flickering firelight illuminated half his face as he held one corner of a letter between his fingers. Suddenly, a knock sounded at the door. He was startled, and in that instant the flame curled upward.

Rao Qian couldn't help getting burned. He calmly turned his hand behind his back and brushed away the ash with his finger, then turned to open the door.

As soon as it opened, he saw the imposing and dignified, glittering and bejeweled wife of the heir, wearing a fake, stiff smile.

Rao Qian: "...?" What an intimidating entrance!
