Ride! I Want to Ride on My Nemesis's Head and Throw My Weight Around

Zhang Linlin was not her mother's biological daughter. She was the child of the enemy her mother hated most.

She survived only because a golden finger suddenly awakened while she was still an infant: a mind at least five years more mature than her actual age. That was what saved her from the Miao witch who raised her, a woman known for her coldness and her strict sense of right and wrong.

But no matter how clever she was, she couldn't change the cruel fact that someone had stolen her health, her vibrant vitality, and all her luck with a Life-Swapping Gu.

Just as she was fretting over how to find the bastard who had cursed her and turn everything around, the owner of the Life-Swapping Gu suddenly fell from the sky and landed right in front of her.

She began her revenge, using every means at her disposal to torment and enslave him. She wanted to rip out his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys, and make him pay back tenfold for everything he'd stolen.

But she never expected that he would be more than a bloodsucker. He was also half sunny, half dark and unhinged, and hopelessly in love. All she had to do was beckon, and he would fall for her so completely he lost all sense of time and place...

Zhang Linlin sharpened her knife, murder in her eyes. “Cat Gu poison or insect Gu poison? Pick one. I'll grant your wish!”

Heathcliff sneered and loosened his tie, revealing his vampire fangs and the Miao mark on his neck. “The one who makes it to tomorrow might not be you.”

Zhang Linlin, scattering poisonous scorpions and bugs at his feet, raised an eyebrow in surprise. “Well, well. You're a supernatural mash-up?”

She turned and called someone on the phone. “Hello? Is this the China Committee for the Joint Governance of Humans and Demons? An unregistered new species has shown up. Can I kill him and keep him as a specimen?”

Heathcliff: “?”

Seeing his bewildered expression, Zhang Linlin explained impatiently, “It's the 21st century. We Chinese are law-abiding citizens. If you kill something you aren't allowed to kill, they'll take you away.”

Heathcliff: “...”
