Yan Linchun had read a book. In it, the treacherous regent was sinister and bloodthirsty, and his wife was ruthless and vicious. The two were undeniably the villainous couple of the entire capital.
The next morning, Yan Linchun opened her eyes and found herself transmigrated into that same-named femme fatale.
The good news: she wasn't alone.
The bad news: the person who had transmigrated with her was her childhood nemesis, the childhood friend she'd been at each other's throats with for years.
Yan Linchun sneered. "Just my luck. I transmigrate, and get saddled with you, a useless teammate."
Qi Jiu choked back a retort. "I'd spit at you, but I don't want to waste my saliva."
They glared at each other, tension crackling between them, when a system notification rang out.
"Congratulations, Hosts! You have been bound to the Villainous Couple System~ To repair the broken world, please follow the original plot and get close to each other as soon as possible!"
Yan Linchun and Qi Jiu spoke in unison: I'd rather die!!!
A few days later, the System's punishment left Yan Linchun clutching her chest, unable to breathe. At last, she knocked on Qi Jiu's door in the middle of the night.
She steeled herself. "Qi Jiu, are we doing this or not?"
Qi Jiu was just as pale. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Fine!"

Later, the world still fell apart.
"Half a month later, the heroine discovers she's pregnant. Panicked, she runs away with the baby, only to be ruthlessly claimed by the unhinged male lead, who keeps her busy day and night."
Qi Jiu gloated. "What a miserable plot you've got. I guess the wicked really do get what's coming to them."
But before his grin had even reached the corners of his mouth, the System spoke again.
"Due to the world's collapse, the two Hosts will exchange plots."
Qi Jiu's expression changed drastically. He tried to speak, but instead braced himself against the wall and retched.
Yan Linchun looked at him with pity, folded her arms, and sighed. "Now it's your turn to get the miserable plot."
