[Bold and flamboyant female general] VS [Cool-headed, scheming young lady]
Business tycoon Chu Lingyun transmigrated into a book, and its author was the assistant she'd just fired. She let out a long sigh. This must be karma.
Fortunately, her former assistant was a decent writer. The story was about a powerful empress and emperor, and Chu Lingyun was merely a villain with the same name who appeared at the very beginning.
So all she had to do was avoid the heroine at the start, then enjoy a happy retirement in this world with the help of her built-in business System... Wait, why was the place she'd been bound to an orphanage?!
"What? That Chu Lingyun actually said she likes you?! Miss, she's going too far!"
"Qiaoning, you've overstepped." Ye Lanxi lowered her eyes and said coolly, "You should call her Miss Chu."
"Hmph! I just can't stand it! You like orchids, so she bought up every orchid in the city and left not a single seedling behind. You opened a home for the elderly, so she followed suit and opened a nursery. And now she's saying she likes you, just to disgust you!"
As her maid Qiaoning chattered on, Ye Lanxi closed her eyes in thought. When exactly had Chu Lingyun fallen for her?
Ever since they were children, Chu Lingyun had loved going against her. Wherever Ye Lanxi went, Chu Lingyun followed. Ye Lanxi liked plain colors, so Chu Lingyun wore bright red and purple every day, strutting around in front of her in all her finery...
Then Ye Lanxi recalled the rare, jewel-bright birds she'd seen in the imperial garden. When courting, they spread their colorful tail feathers.
Ye Lanxi opened her eyes, and understanding dawned on her.
So all of Chu Lingyun's behavior had been her showing off her plumage in front of Ye Lanxi...
[Reading Guide]
1. I got a huge discount coupon on Xiaohongshu and ended up with a beautiful book cover, so now that I have a cover, I might as well write a story!
2. The idea in my head is a romantic comedy about a powerful businesswoman who transmigrates into a book and gets entangled with a cool-headed heroine. This is my first time writing this kind of story, and it'll probably be around two or three hundred thousand words. If that's not your thing, please read with caution!
3. The pacing may be fairly slow. Everyone is a good person, and there aren't any especially thrilling events. If that's not your thing, please read with caution!
Theme: Women should be independent and strong!
