The Whole World Thinks She's a Stand-In

[Blurb for my next book, "Trapped in an Explicit Novel with an Obsessive Man," at the bottom]

On the third day after taking human form, Qingyi was having fun teaching a lackey a lesson.

"You're only a little like her. Lord Chuyou sees you as a substitute, so how dare a lowly lotus spirit like you..."

"That's right." Qingyi smiled sweetly, her blows swift and decisive. "I'm more than enough to deal with you."

-

She had offended too many immortals, and they were all waiting for her to ruin herself.

But day after day passed, and Lord Chuyou showed no sign of rejecting his wicked-hearted substitute.

Once, Qingyi blew up the palace of his beloved, and Chuyou actually wiped the ash from her palm with his own hands.

The immortals: Oh dear. This is bad.

Qingyi wasn't surprised.

After all, he was a god, and his heart held great love for the world, not small affections for individuals. Even if a god loved someone, this was as far as it went.

-

It wasn't until the Celestial Emperor forced Qingyi down into the mortal realm that the immortals who had suffered at her hands had a few days to celebrate. Then the barrier around the Immortal Palace shattered, and a divine weapon's blade pointed at the same figure.

The immortals' hatred and wariness of her turned to fear.

What substitute? What lowly lotus spirit? She was the ruler of the Demon Realm.

That day, the Immortal Palace ran red with blood, bodies strewn everywhere. But the devastating carnage wasn't Qingyi's doing.

At that moment, she had just killed the Celestial Emperor, who had once tried to kill her. Suddenly, strands of divine power mixed with demonic energy bound her to the Celestial Emperor's throne.

The god smiled as he kissed her. His gaze was stubborn, and signs of demonic corruption appeared between his brows. Hot tears fell into her mouth as Chuyou said, trembling:

"Please don't leave me again. Take me with you..."

After that, he said,

"Let me keep loving you."

"I'm no longer a god."

Gods love all living things, but his heart was too small. It could only hold one person.

[Reading Guide]

1. Fake substitute | A god turns demonic for love | One true partner, happy ending

2. Bright, bold, hot-tempered heroine x obsessive, aloof, beautiful but tragic hero

3. Romance-focused, with plenty of plot

4. My take on fantasy, with lots of original worldbuilding. Some beast lore is inspired by the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

5. Important: ① There is a character called the "beloved" in the story, and she and the female lead are enemies to the death, but their central conflict has nothing to do with the male lead. ② No innocent person is killed by the protagonists.

-Please add my first book, "Trapped in an Explicit Novel with an Obsessive Man," to your reading list~

Jin Yongyi transmigrates into a male-oriented novel as the male lead's sidekick, spending her whole life contributing to his success. The only way to escape is to die.

Her assigned tasks include, but aren't limited to, "lull the male lead to sleep" and "help the male lead scrub his back."

Jin Yongyi: ...Are these tasks normal?

The male lead, Zhao Fuzhou, is handsome, gentle, and polite to her, and always showers her with money. Following him around, admiring his looks and spending his cash, Jin Yongyi lives a pretty comfortable life.

But as time goes on, Jin Yongyi decides the System has absolutely no standards. She starts finding the male lead just as irritating. She keeps up her character on the outside, but spends every day cursing the System and the male lead to drop dead.

At last, the day she can leave arrives, and Jin Yongyi eagerly rushes toward her death.

Suddenly, a pale hand twists her wrist painfully.

"Trying to leave?"

Zhao Fuzhou's eyes are full of menace. His porcelain-white face is stained with blood, making him look like a demon from the depths of hell. Yet he smiles as he pulls her into his arms and says, word by word:

"In. Your. Dreams."

Just then, the System's alarm goes off like crazy.

[Warning! The original System is fake. This world is the explicit novel "Don't Fall for the Obsessive Man." The male lead, Zhao Fuzhou, needs to earn your love to stay alive. As the female lead, you must escape his relentless pursuit!]

Jin Yongyi: Could you possibly have shown up any later?! I'm already locked up!!

Zhao Fuzhou traps her tightly in his arms from behind, pulls at her sash, and smiles as he kisses the sensitive skin behind her ear.

"Tell me..."

"Should I turn you into a heartless puppet so you can stay with me forever?"

After many nights of passion beneath the lotus-patterned curtains, Jin Yongyi gradually realizes that in an explicit novel, the male lead's way of earning love is actually through...

She doesn't want to run anymore. If she can't escape that lustful gaze, then she'll face it head-on.
