When Li Mingzhao first met Pei Langyu, the young man was sitting on the roof, laughing with carefree abandon.

He toyed with the silver bracelet in his hand and teased her, "Little lady, do you like it? I'll give you one."

But Li Mingzhao knew that giving someone a silver bracelet in Miaojiang meant asking for her hand in marriage, so she repeatedly refused.

Who could have known that Pei Langyu's words would come true? Both he and Li Mingzhao were framed and infected with a love curse. To protect their reputations and their lives, they ultimately married.

*

After their wedding, they were intimate only on nights when the moon was full. The rest of the time, they treated each other with courteous respect.

But at some point, their relationship gradually changed. Li Mingzhao discovered that Pei Langyu often hugged her and acted spoiled.

"My dear, don't be angry." The young man wrapped his arms around Li Mingzhao's waist and ingratiatingly kissed her cheek. "In Miaojiang, people marry only once in their lives. Please don't ever take off your bracelet."

*

Later, Li Mingzhao fell into a trap and was taken into an underground palace, where she was forced to marry its master.

Pei Langyu stood in front of the bridal sedan. The wind whipped the red ribbon tied to the end of his hair high into the air. The young man smiled brightly at the crowd. "Everyone, don't be alarmed. I just came to see who dares lay a hand on my wife."

*The heroine and hero are each other's only romantic and sexual partners.

Before she transmigrated, Xu Chun Yue loved reading melodramatic novels.

So when she spotted an injured demon by the roadside, she chose to walk away.

But the demon said, "Save me, and I'll swear a blood pact to grant you one wish."

Xu Chun Yue knew this was a world where demons and humans lived together.

Demons were long-lived beings who knew everything.

She wanted to go home so badly that she eventually saved him.

And Shen Guandu kept his promise. Once his wounds healed, he took her to find an all-knowing person who could help her discover how to get home.

But their journey was far from smooth.

Shen Guandu seemed to be a wicked demon of the highest order. Every few days, an exorcist would come after his life.

Whenever he was injured, he would come to her for treatment.

At first he only needed her blood. Later, he wanted her spiritual energy, and then he even wanted...

For the sake of getting home, Xu Chun Yue agreed to everything.

But after they found the all-knowing person, Shen Guandu stopped her.

"A-Yue, I only said I'd help you find a way home. I never promised to let you go back."

[I Transmigrated as the Cannon-Fodder Daughter in a Forced Marriage Novel]

After I transmigrated, I discovered that I was completely naked. When I looked up, I saw a handsome man staring at me. I thought he was a pervert, but it turned out he was my creator, my "father."

He had carved this body out of jade. Since my soul hadn't adapted to it yet, I would often freeze in place for no reason. So until I could act like a normal person, I could only stay in a tiny cave.

In my fragmented dreams each night, I finally began to understand my situation.

I had transmigrated into a forced-marriage novel, and my "father" was its male lead. The mother who had given me flesh and blood had been driven to the end of her rope by him and was now asleep in a cold ice coffin.

The purpose of my creation was to serve as a key, using my spiritual power to open a secret realm and revive my mother.

After learning all this, I began to dislike him. When I saw him each day, I no longer felt happy as I once had. He saw through my feelings but didn't explain himself. Once I had adapted, he simply handed me over to his disciples for instruction.

But I didn't get along very well with my four senior brothers.

The eldest was like a fox, always languid in speech and action, and he loved to tease me. The second and third were twins, and their eyes always held suspicion and scrutiny when they looked at me. The fourth was a wooden beauty, and he and I could sit side by side in silence all morning.

But my "father" and I still had to see each other.

Every month, I had to go to his courtyard so he could examine the spiritual energy in my body. But I didn't like cultivating and was always slacking off, so my progress was poor every month.

Until the third month, when he seemed to have run out of patience and asked which senior brother I wanted to cultivate with through dual cultivation.

I called him crazy and stormed out.

But I'd forgotten that he was the male lead of a forced-marriage novel. There was no scheme he wouldn't use.

That very night, I was trapped in my fourth senior brother's room.
