The Copycat

Wen Jiao's copycat roommate had been secretly in love with her for years, but during the height of their relationship, she got engaged to someone else behind Wen Jiao's back.

At the engagement banquet, Wen Jiao was consumed with hatred. Her former lover mocked her. "Wen Jiao, look at yourself. You can't give me the life I want. I was only playing around with you."

Three years later, the Zhou family went bankrupt.

Wen Jiao tracked down her first love, the one who had cheated on her, and used threats and inducements to make her her mistress. She kept Zhou Ziyan confined, stripped her of every ability to survive on her own, and reduced her to a canary who could live only by pleasing her.

After learning Wen Jiao's true nature, Zhou Ziyan packed her bags one night and fled the place that had brought her so much pain.

As power changed hands, the truth about the engagement banquet finally began to emerge.

Zhou Ziyan had never betrayed Wen Jiao.

Wen Jiao went nearly mad, offering a reward across the world just to find Zhou Ziyan, but her search came up empty. Then one night, she received an anonymous text.

[Wen Jiao, I'm getting married. Please let me go.]

*

Zhou Ziyan went to a remote little town and took the name Zhou Yan.

The people there were simple and kind. Wounded and weary, she met a gentle female teacher who didn't care about her past, only whether she was tired and whether she was doing well. Zhou Ziyan decided to leave everything behind and marry her.

The eve of the wedding, Wen Jiao put out a reward for finding her.

Zhou Ziyan kept receiving harassment through every imaginable channel. At last, unable to bear it any longer, she sent her ex an anonymous text.

From that day on, mishaps came crashing down on her like a tidal wave. The person closest to her took the million-yuan reward and sent her right back to Wen Jiao.

"If you really love me, let me go."

"Let you go?"

"Only if I'm dead."

When they met again, Wen Jiao realized that Zhou Ziyan truly hated her, and truly wanted her dead.

---Upcoming story---

New novel: Saving the Beautiful but Tragic Omega [Book Transmigration]. My wife is a beautiful, tragic heroine. I'll save her, then happily live off her!

Wen Yan transmigrated into a lesbian novel as a useless Alpha.

The original Wen Yan had a crush on the fake heiress and teamed up with her to drug the heroine, Xu Ruozhou, and forcibly mark her.

After they married, the original Wen Yan was jealous that Xu Ruozhou, despite being an Omega, was better than her at everything. Every night, she came up with new ways to humiliate the heroine, leaving her covered in wounds.

The original Wen Yan and the fake heiress congratulated themselves, never imagining that Xu Ruozhou was only pretending to go along with them. Once she had power in her hands, she broke the legs of the original Wen Yan, who had abused her, and shipped her off to the fake heiress. The fake heiress was frightened into a mental breakdown, and Xu Ruozhou also sent the fake heiress's biological parents, who had doted on her, to a psychiatric hospital.

Wen Yan: This is great! This is exactly the kind of beautiful-but-tragic heroine I love!

When Wen Yan opened her eyes again, she still wasn't fully awake when the rich scent of roses reached her nose. Driven by instinct, she sank her sharp teeth into the slightly raised gland at the back of the pale, delicate neck of the beauty in her arms.

Wen Yan let out a satisfied sigh, only to find the beauty in her arms looking at her with despair and humiliation. Then she heard words so familiar she knew them by heart: "Wen Yan, you clearly like Xu Mingxin. Why did you have to drug me?"

Wen Yan was struck dumb.

She had transmigrated into a book?!

Remembering the original Wen Yan's horrific fate, Wen Yan had a flash of inspiration. Before the mob that had come to catch them could arrive, she tremblingly pulled the wounded beauty into her arms. "The truth is, you're the one I've always loved. I only pretended to help Xu Mingxin because I wanted to be with you."

Xu Ruozhou: ?

After marrying her, Wen Yan dropped to her knees with a thump. "Honey, from now on, what's mine is yours, and what's yours is still yours."

"If you're still upset about me drugging you, you can beat me up. Anywhere you like, but preferably my butt. I'm tough, so don't go easy on me!"

Xu Ruozhou: ...

Xu Ruozhou had never been favored by fortune. She didn't care. Her hands would be stained with blood, and her feet would tread on the bones of the lucky ones as she climbed to the pinnacle of power.

Until someone covered her eyes as she stared into the abyss and lit a lamp for her.

That gentle goddess from another world drove away the darkness and illuminated the road ahead.

Upcoming: My Advisor Is Always Flirting with Me. I call her Professor during the day, and at night she calls me...

On her first day as a university lecturer, Song Qinghe overheard her colleagues gossiping behind her back.

"What academic genius? She just got close to Lin Yunyi. Without Professor Lin, how could she have published so many papers in top Chinese journals during grad school?"

"Everyone in the department knows Lin Yunyi likes women. I bet Professor Lin got involved with her three years ago, back when Song Qinghe was still a student!"

Song Qinghe shoved open the office door, which had been left ajar. The gossips jumped. The usually cheerful, gentle woman looked cold enough to freeze them solid.

"This is the first and last time. You can spread rumors about me if you want, but if anyone dares to talk behind Professor Lin's back again, you'll have me to answer to!"

Seeing her righteous indignation, her colleagues held back for a long time before finally asking the question everyone in the department wanted to know: "Song Qinghe, do you really have no feelings for Lin Yunyi at all?"

Song Qinghe looked utterly upright. "Professor Lin is a paragon of virtue and grace. Even if I died, I would never disgrace my academic mentor!"

*

Lin Yunyi was cool and reserved, a woman of few words, and a law professor admired by everyone. Yet she fell for one of her students.

Song Qinghe studied under her for three years, and Lin Yunyi had a crush on her for all three. She persuaded Song Qinghe to return to China and work as a university lecturer, hoping to take advantage of their proximity. But Song Qinghe was so respectful of her teachers that every time they met, she called Lin Yunyi "Professor," practically worshipping her. All Lin Yunyi's flirtatious looks went unnoticed.

With her longtime crush catching fire, Lin Yunyi had no choice but to make her intentions unmistakably clear.

"Bonus scene"

A torrential downpour sealed off the mountain, and a scoundrel with designs on Professor Lin drugged her with an aphrodisiac.

Inside a tent at the campsite, Song Qinghe sat bolt upright, though two blushes had appeared on her cheeks. She held the drenched Professor Lin in her arms. The beautiful, fragile woman's skin was burning hot, and the cheek pressed to Song Qinghe's neck was an unnatural pale red. She looked frail and helpless.

Lin Yunyi let out a pained gasp and curled up in Song Qinghe's arms, both hands clasped tightly around her waist.

Song Qinghe's whole body tensed. She stammered, "Professor, don't worry. The rescue team will be here soon!"

Something she said seemed to anger Professor Lin. Lin Yunyi bit her shoulder in retaliation. Song Qinghe let out a muffled groan, then heard a sob from the person in her arms. "Qinghe, please, help me."

"I... I don't know how." Song Qinghe had never had this kind of experience. But Professor Lin patiently took her hand, licking her long, slender, pale fingers with her soft lips.

"Use this, Qinghe."

Afterward, Song Qinghe suddenly burst into tears. Lin Yunyi was so startled that she forgot her limp limbs and hurried to sit up, wiping away her tears.

"What's wrong, Qinghe?"

Looking at this upright, kindhearted young woman, Lin Yunyi seemed to make up her mind and took her hand. "Professor Lin, don't worry. I'll take responsibility for you!"

Lin Yunyi smiled helplessly. "I'd like nothing more."

*

Many years later, Song Qinghe still regretted that she had taken advantage of Professor Lin in those circumstances and ruined her bright future.

Then one day, drunk, she came home, burrowed into her wife's arms, and cried like a child as she asked, "Professor, do you really not like me? Did you only marry me because you had no choice from the very beginning?"

Lin Yunyi helplessly flicked her nose. "Silly girl, I never drank the drugged juice that night."

Song Qinghe stared at her, stunned.

"And, Qinghe..." Lin Yunyi slipped off her clothes and ingratiatingly licked Song Qinghe's pale fingers. "Stop calling me Professor."
