The Mad Regent's Persona Crumbles After He Reads My Mind

[The new novel The Metaphysical Master Is a Little Sweetie: Want to Change Your Fate? Pay Up! is now live. If it's not sweet, you can bite me!]

[Transmigrate into a book + mind-reading + System space + unhinged romance + mystery and crime-solving, a devoted couple's healing story]

After spending years slacking off in the underworld, the wronged soul Nan Xi finally got a chance to be reincarnated. The Judge sent her into a novel, where she became a cannon-fodder character with the same name who died right at the start. She was also given a System space with a merit shop.

From the start, she was on her way to the execution ground. She shouted that she had been framed, never expecting to catch the attention of the novel's unhinged villain, the Regent.

“Good heavens, the big villain is so handsome! What a shame he's sickly, and the kind of sickly man who takes people's lives at the drop of a hat.”

“Ugh! I only have one merit point, which means I've got one more day to live. Just one!”

“Pah! You rotten man, you'll die alone. With that face that says the whole world owes you ten thousand taels of gold, only a ghost would ever want you!”

Nan Xi went further and further down the road of roasting the big villain, completely unaware that he could read minds.

In public, the big villain said, “My princess consort is pure and kind, and aspires to help everyone. Don't you dare bully her.”

In private, he kept her trapped and bullied her mercilessly.

Nan Xi swore that a woman could have her revenge even ten years later.

So she said, “You didn't know? That loyal guard of yours is about to kick the bucket. The one who'll kill him is…”

The next day, the guard showed up for work as usual, while the person who had tried to kill him was thrown in jail, awaiting execution after the autumn harvest.

“The hero and heroine have finally appeared. The big villain is finally going to bite the dust.”

Before long, someone reported the hero for secretly making a dragon robe and plotting a rebellion. He was stripped of his status and sent to the frontier.

The heroine was also hurriedly cast aside by her family and married off to someone else.

Nan Xi: “?”

Why was the plot getting more and more off track?
