In the Midst of Saving the Heroine

Blurb:

Cen Ling transmigrates after her death and gets bound to a System. The System tells her that the heroine of this world was persecuted by other women who transmigrated here, sending the plot completely off course. The heroine, who was originally as innocent as a little white flower, became a black lotus instead, eventually cutting herself off from love and turning into a villainous boss bent on destroying the world.

Cen Ling's job is to correct this history, save the heroine, and set the plot back on its original course.

Cen Ling: Leave it to me!

I've read tons of redemption novels on Jinjiang. I can do this! I've got this!

And then Cen Ling transmigrated.

She looked up to find herself amid a chaotic battle between good and evil, surrounded by demons and ghosts that could take her life at any moment. In the distance, seated on a lotus throne, was the original heroine, now a black-clad boss.

Cen Ling: ...?

System: Ahhh, I'm sorry, Host! I got the numbers wrong when you transmigrated, so I accidentally sent you a tiny bit too late.

Cen Ling: You call this a tiny bit?!!!

But whatever happened, she had to pull herself together. Otherwise, she would lose the second chance at life she'd fought so hard to get.

So Cen Ling got to her feet and ran toward the heroine amid the chaos.

With the help of a one-use golden finger lent to her by the System, Cen Ling made it to the heroine. Before the two protectors on either side could attack her, she shouted:

"Sang Yun! You can't kill me, I'm carrying your child!!"

"Her voice lingered in the air, refusing to fade for three days."

At that moment, both sides stopped fighting and started watching the drama unfold.

Afterward, Sang Yun took Cen Ling back with her. Trembling like a rabbit, Cen Ling prayed desperately for mercy.

That night, Sang Yun came to her with a faintly amused smile. "How many months until you give birth? If you can't deliver by then, I'll throw you into the Bone-Melting Pool."

Cen Ling swore to the heavens: "It'll take three years! I'm carrying Nezha!"

For the next three years, Cen Ling stayed by Sang Yun's side. She accompanied her through the agony of the full-moon bone-chilling affliction, joined her in playing tricks on the original male lead and the transmigrated woman, and enjoyed the beauty of spring with her.

Now the three-year deadline had arrived, and it was time for Cen Ling to fulfill her promise.

Confident that she and Sang Yun had grown close, Cen Ling flopped onto the bed like a lazy fish. "I can't give birth. Go ahead and melt me."

Sang Yun came over, tugged at her collar, and curled her red lips into a smile. "Since you can't give birth, we'll just have to keep trying. Get up."
