One-on-one romance, devoted love, and a clean couple + the original male lead regrets losing her but gets no second chance + winning over the villain + comedy with a touch of absurdity + surviving with the help of pop-up comments
She transmigrated into an angsty romance novel, and from the start the male lead was going to carve out her kidney to save his one true love?
Wen Jiaohua wasn't having it.
When the scumbag male lead wanted to save his one true love, she'd tear off that angelic woman's mask.
When he wanted the Wen family to disown her, she'd dig up his family's ancestral graves herself!
When he wanted to kill the villain and seize power, she'd help the villain purge corrupt officials and secure the throne!
But why did the villainous puppet emperor seem to have a bug in his programming?
The villain was supposed to be cold-hearted, cold-blooded, and stone-faced. Why was he suddenly going all out to win her over?
At first:
When Wen Jiaohua attended the emperor, he said, “This is just an act. I don't like women who look like you.”
Pop-up comments: Who else gets it? Later on, I think the villainous hottie is playing hard to get!
When Wen Jiaohua performed a dance, the emperor shook his head coolly. “Consort Jiao's dancing is mediocre. There's nothing worth praising.”
Pop-up comments: The heroine says it was great! She hopes the villain will show favor to all his consorts equally. She wants to be friends with the other women in the harem~
Later:
The emperor entered her chambers in the middle of the night. “My beloved consort, it's late and the night dew is heavy. Why are you wearing so many clothes?”
Pop-up comments: They're so adorable, so adorable, so adorable! The emperor says, “I knew I'd like it~”
*
Later still, Wen Jiaohua finally escaped the fate of an angsty romance heroine, while the scumbag cried and begged her to forgive him.
No corrupt officials held the court in their grip anymore, and harmony reigned throughout the imperial harem.
Wen Jiaohua thought she could leave after accomplishing everything, but on the day she was about to leave the palace, the emperor carried her back to his bedchamber.
His eyes rimmed red, the man pleaded, “Don't go. Don't leave me.”
