Jiang Qi transmigrated, and she was devastated. Why did everyone else get a golden finger or a System to help them become empress, while she got her head chopped off by a tyrant?
As the tyrant came at her, she closed her eyes and waited to die. Then the tyrant suddenly lowered his gaze and bit his lip. "Darling... it's all my fault. From now on, if you tell me to go left, I absolutely won't go west."
Jiang Qi: "?"
His eyes turned red at the corners. "We little men really have done some things wrong. Today, I'll punish myself by being your little fox."
Jiang Qi: "??" What the hell, is this some new kind of torture?
She stepped back as he approached, trembling. Then he tripped and fell straight into her arms.
The current tyrant, Xiao Li, had been very irritable lately.
Just as he was about to kill that woman, something called the [Adoring Wife System] suddenly appeared in his mind, chattering in his ear all day long:
[Please win over the Jiang Qi before you. Once successful, you can unify the Six Kingdoms and live for ten thousand years!]
The tyrant lowered his blade, his eyes lighting up. "Is what you said true?"
[Ding! Say a sweet line to Jiang Qi to earn a reward: the rebels will die on the spot.]
[Congratulations on unlocking the achievement [Doing Her Hair]. Reward: one, ten, or more cities.]
Xiao Li: "...Mm, this is actually pretty great!"
Jiang Qi thinks the tyrant is strange. He clearly wants to kill her, but he keeps putting it off. Could it be... that he wants to fatten her up first? Whatever. She likes being in control of her own fate, so she'll make her escape first!
When the tyrant returns after conquering one of the Six Kingdoms, he finds the palace empty and stares around in bewilderment. Where's my wife? Where's my cheat?
The brutal emperor issues an order throughout the city: Jiang Qi must be found. Everyone knows the consort who tamed the tyrant has vanished, and that the emperor went mad overnight.
Jiang Qi munches on an apple. "Munch, munch. What is this tyrant, munch, munch, looking for? His wife runs off and only then he regrets it. Why not wait until she's dead to cry? What? That person is me?!"
Bonus scene
Later, watching the tyrant rush into his arms in tears, she finally understands!
"So he's just a career-driven little 'wife'! We strong women should bear our destiny and protect our little men!"
At that moment, the System spoke in the tyrant's ear:
[Ding! Final quest for the Adoring Wife System: hand the realm over to Jiang Qi and help her become a great empress.]
The tyrant: Why does something feel wrong?
Theme: Everyone should grow toward the light!
