Secretly in Love with Ming Jiao

[Transmigrate-into-a-book redemption + a dangerously obsessive male lead + reverse pursuit] Ji Taozhi wakes up one day in the body of a cannon-fodder female character in a school novel. The System warns her: She must save Nan Lichuan, the future villain who will turn evil, or her score will be reset to zero and she'll vanish on the spot! Before her stands a brooding boy like a lone wolf. In the book, he's a future powerhouse driven to the brink by the male lead, with a heartbreaking air about him and an off-the-charts corruption score. Ji Taozhi: …Is it too late to run away now? **In the original plot, she bullied him for the male lead. Now she slaps the bully to the ground, takes a knife for him, and even slaps a contract for a convalescent home onto his desk. “Nan Lichuan, I've got your back!”** Everyone mocks her for dreaming, and even the heroine, reborn from the future, watches her like a hawk. But no one knows that with every step closer she takes, his obsession deepens. Until one night in an alley, the unhinged powerhouse grabs her wrist and rasps, “Ji Taozhi, can you afford the price of provoking me?” Redemption is a high-stakes gamble. I bet my life that you'll show mercy.
