She Dresses as a Woman to Lure the Tyrant, Then Runs Away

Lu Yan transmigrated into a book.

The System told him that if he completed the main quest, it would set him up with an easy job for retirement.

Lu Yan, who had been on the verge of death in his original world, immediately perked up.

Who would choose death when they could live?!

Following the System's instructions, Lu Yan found his target: Qu Chenying, the book's antagonist.

He was a top-tier scumbag who had deceived countless young women, seduced and abandoned them, and murdered people for their money.

Lu Yan's revenge was entirely justified.

He disguised himself as a woman, cooking for the scumbag and tending to his every need.

Once the scumbag was completely devoted to him, Lu Yan mercilessly dumped him and ran.

With the mission complete, Lu Yan took an easy job at the Imperial Medical Bureau, where he spent his days digging in the dirt and tending the medicinal garden. Life was wonderful.

But then he noticed his stomach was getting bigger.

Even worse, one day the emperor visited the garden, and Lu Yan realized he looked exactly like the scumbag!

At last, the broken System came back online and cried out in alarm, pounding its head: Host, how did you pick the wrong target to pursue?! Aaaah!!!

Tyrant Qu Chenying was ambushed by assassins and seriously injured.

As he lay waiting to die, a young woman took him home.

She was gentle and charming, washing his clothes, cooking for him, and treating his wounds. Qu Chenying fell in love.

Just as he was about to bring her back to the palace, the young woman suddenly ran away, leaving a note saying she had only been playing with him.

Qu Chenying was furious. Unable to find her, he could only return to the palace first.

Then, during a visit to the medicinal garden, he saw a young man who looked exactly like the young woman.

The little boy beside him looked even more like Qu Chenying himself.
