Stealing Fate [Dual Transmigration into a Book]

Office drone | Tyrant | Subverts palace intrigue tropes | Both transmigrate into a book and uncover each other's secret identity | Both are faithful

Lin You clicked "No" while working overtime, only to be forced to transmigrate into a book as a favored consort.

By day, she slacks off and clocks in. By night, she confounds the tyrant of Great Pei. The more the court historians curse her, the more her reputation grows.

Later, she accidentally discovers... that the tyrant, Pei Juelin, also transmigrated into a book from the modern world.

Pei Juelin had been a "worker" for three years longer than her, and had been waiting for her all that time.

Personal profiles:

Lin You, an internet-industry office drone, was still revising a PowerPoint at home at two in the morning.

An invitation to transmigrate into a book suddenly popped up on her computer screen, and she decisively clicked DECLINE!!!

The next second, the mouse still sucked her into the book The Short-Lived Favored Consort.

The original owner had been so humiliated that she hanged herself. Lin You showed up on time and took over her body.

She became the short-lived favored consort in the book. With death looming, she decided to enjoy life.

Pei Juelin, the only son of a listed company's CEO, relied on his father to throw his weight around.

He learned from an employee that he shared a name with a cardboard-cutout tyrant in a novel.

Curious, he opened The Short-Lived Favored Consort to have a look, and was pulled straight into the book.

Pei Juelin: "My beloved consort, how dare you behave so outrageously in this great hall?"

Shangguan Li'er: "It was my fault, Your Majesty. I'll write 'proper conduct' a thousand times and paste it all over the city walls!"

Cuddled in the tyrant's arms as the woman by his side, Lin You had already spent the night doing the math.

If she didn't turn ruthless, she wouldn't survive thirty chapters of the original plot.

So Lin You planned to tear up the original script, act obedient at first, then use someone else's hand...

She planned to help the tyrant chop down Prince Qi, who intended to rebel, then turn around and bury the tyrant herself.

She had thought: If everyone is evil, then she'll be the craziest of them all.

The moment Pei Juelin discovered her ambition, she fought a bloody path for him and took her seat on the dragon throne.

Their eyes met. The blood in the Golden Throne Hall had not yet dried, and Lin You saw him from afar.

That tyrant, who had always thought himself invincible, now seemed like a vicious dog she had tamed, fighting and battling for her!

Pei Juelin was covered in old and new wounds. His eyes were full of sorrow, and blood spilled from his mouth.

She suddenly understood, hesitatingly...

Pei Juelin was her salvation, and also the one who would be buried alongside her on the road home.
