The male protagonist of the book is poisonous
Chapter 1: Entering the Book and Becoming a Female Supporting Character
My name is Lin Yue. Amidst the vast sea of people in this bustling city, I'm just one of countless insignificant beings. Every morning, before the first rays of sunlight have fully penetrated the morning mist, I've already hurriedly washed and dressed and set off for work. And as the sun sets and the lights begin to come on, I, exhausted, join the stream of people returning home. Day after day, year after year, I lead this nine-to-five, routine life, like a tiny screw in the urban machine, insignificant but quietly operating at my place.
That day, as usual, the clock struck the end of get off work. Night fell silently and with astonishing speed, like a vast, boundless black curtain, instantly enveloping the entire city. The neon lights lining the streets shone in a dazzling array of colors, like a vibrant painting. However, I had no time to dwell on these beautiful sights. I dragged myself, feeling drained of all strength, and with heavy steps, I slowly headed home.
Finally home! As soon as I opened the door, without even changing my shoes, I flung my backpack from my shoulders. With a dull thud, it arced through the air before landing heavily on the ground. Then, as if losing its support, my body collapsed onto the familiar sofa. I couldn't even bring myself to flip the light switch. I just wanted to lie quietly in the darkness, resting my body and soul for a moment.
In the darkness, relying on memory, I instinctively reached out my right hand and fumbled around. It wasn't long before my fingers touched the cold, hard object—my phone. I thought to myself, "Alas, perhaps only fictional stories can soothe my weary soul." With that thought, I deftly opened my phone, flipped through some random pages, and dove headfirst into the emotional vortex of an old, tragic romance novel.
Just as I was completely absorbed in my phone screen, completely lost in it, suddenly, without any warning, the screen flashed with an extremely dazzling and piercing light! Like an incredibly sharp sword, it pierced my eyes with a fierce force! Instantly, a wave of excruciating pain washed over me like a tidal wave, causing me to let out an involuntary "Ah!" Then, instinctively, I closed my eyes tightly.
However, as I recovered a bit and cautiously opened my eyes again, a suffocating, almost suffocating dizziness washed over me. My head felt like it had been struck by a sledgehammer, and the world began to spin. The sight that greeted me was so terrifying that I nearly fell off the sofa!
When I slowly opened my eyes, I was surprised to find myself in a completely unfamiliar environment. It seemed like a corner forgotten by time, exuding an ancient and elegant atmosphere.
The first thing that caught my eye was an antique-style room. The air was filled with a light sandalwood fragrance, a delicate and elegant scent that was like a breeze blowing through my heart, instantly immersing my soul in it and bringing it a sense of tranquility and peace.
The room was filled with exquisitely crafted wooden tables and chairs, their surfaces carved with intricate and delicate patterns that seemed to whisper stories of ancient legends, like living things.
Turning my gaze to the walls, I saw several ink paintings hanging there. The artist's delicate brushstrokes flowed across the paper like a trickle of water, effortlessly transporting the viewer into the painted landscape. Within the scrolls, one could almost hear the gurgling sound of mountain streams and the melodious chirping of birds.
Turning his gaze to the bed, he saw an elegant blue quilt spread across it. It was embroidered with delicate orchid patterns, the petals so vivid they seemed to sway gently in the breeze, emitting a faint, almost imperceptible fragrance.
Finally, I looked down at myself and found myself in a pale pink ancient costume. The soft fabric was like clouds in the sky, gently clinging to my skin, and every detail exuded a rich classical charm.
My eyes widened, my heart pounding like it was about to burst through my chest. Terror washed over me like a tidal wave, and a cloud of doubt hung over me like a dark cloud. How had this happened? Was I transported here in a physical form, or had my spirit traveled through time?
Trembling, I slowly extended my right hand, my gaze fixed on the pair of slender, white hands before me, as delicate as mutton-fat jade. Yet, they felt so unfamiliar to me, not like they belonged to me at all. I couldn't help but mutter to myself, "What on earth is going on? Why am I here?" My voice was quiet, but it was remarkably clear in the silence.
At that moment, without warning, a torrent of memories, like a flood bursting through a dam, suddenly flooded my mind. Instantly, my head felt like it was struck by a massive hammer, the pain unbearable. It felt like countless needles were piercing my brain, excruciating the pain. I instinctively clutched my head tightly with both hands, trying to dull the pain. At the same time, my body involuntarily curled up into a ball, as if to ward off the onslaught of violent memories.
Under the onslaught of this powerful torrent of memories, the fragmented pieces of information gradually pieced together. Finally, I knew my current identity—Su Xiao! She was the infamous, abhorrent, and vicious female supporting character from that ancient, tragic romance novel! It turned out that my soul had truly been transported to the body of this woman named Su Xiao. But why had I inexplicably traveled to the world of the book? Was it because of that strange, inexplicable light on my phone screen just now? This was truly too bizarre, almost unbelievable!
I was sitting quietly by the bed, my gaze wandering, lost in my own complex thoughts, as if the entire world consisted only of me and those thoughts that surged in like a tide. Just then, a clear and melodious voice, like the chirping of a nightingale, suddenly rang out: "Miss, are you awake?"
The sudden noise brought me back to reality. I instinctively looked up and saw a graceful young girl, about fourteen or fifteen, standing before me. She had delicate features, skin as white as snow, as smooth and delicate as mutton-fat jade. Beneath her curved, willow-shaped brows were a pair of large, watery eyes, bright and clear, like the twinkling stars in the night sky, shimmering and radiant, revealing a lively and playful light.
I tried hard to search carefully for information about this little girl in the memories that were flooding into my mind like a torrent. Finally, a vague memory gradually became clear - it turned out that she was Xiaozhu, the personal maid who had always served Su Xiao (that is, me) wholeheartedly!
At that moment, for some reason, facing this strange yet familiar little girl, I felt an inexplicable sense of nervousness well up inside me. I stared intently at her charming face and asked hesitantly, "Xiaozhu, what's going on? My head feels so woozy, like it's stuffed with cotton. So many things are blurry and I can't remember anything at all."
When Xiaozhu heard this, her face immediately showed anxiety and worry. She hurried to my side, stretched out her slender and tender little hands, gently held my arm, and said in a concerned tone: "Miss, you really scared Xiaozhu! You accidentally fell while walking before, and your head hit the ground hard, and you fell into a coma on the spot. Since then, Xiaozhu has not dared to leave your side for a moment. I stay here day and night, eagerly hoping that you will wake up soon, really worried that something bad will happen to you..." At this point, Xiaozhu's eyes were slightly red, and tears seemed to burst out at any time.
I secretly groaned inwardly, what should I do? There seemed to be no other way but to continue with this story. So, I pretended to be weak and said to Xiao Zhu weakly, "Xiao Zhu, my heart is like a tangled mess right now. It's really a mess. Can you tell me in detail about the specific situation here?"
Xiao Zhu nodded obediently and replied softly, "Miss, we now live in this sect. Although your status in the sect is not very high, as long as we are careful in our words and actions and be cautious in our dealings with others, I think we can still live a peaceful life. Miss, you used to get angry and lose your temper over things, and I, Xiao Zhu, have always felt that this is not good."
Hearing Xiao Zhu's words, my heart trembled. I instantly understood what she was referring to, precisely the events in the original storyline, where Su Xiao's jealousy of the heroine had caused all sorts of trouble. I quickly took over, saying with a look of guilt on my face, "Xiao Zhu, it was indeed my fault in the past. I was too impulsive and willful. But after this coma, I've come to understand a lot of things. I will definitely not act so rashly again."
Xiao Zhu's eyes suddenly gleamed, dazzling like the bright stars in the night sky. Then, her previously plain face lit up, a smile of pure delight as charming as a peach blossom in full bloom in spring. She excitedly said, "Miss, it's wonderful that you can think this way! Someone as beautiful and kind-hearted as you shouldn't be so gloomy and frowning all day long."
Hearing Xiao Zhu's words, the corners of my mouth curled up slightly, forcing a slightly bitter smile, but deep down, I felt a mixture of emotions. I thought to myself: I absolutely cannot repeat the mistakes of the original book and continue down that path of a vicious and despised female supporting character. However, what exactly should I do to reverse this difficult situation? Moreover, in this world, there exists the hero who terrifies Su Xiao—Chu Feng. At this thought, I couldn't help but feel a surge of anxiety and unease. I really didn't know how I should deal with this terrifying man.
Helplessly, I could only sigh softly, then slowly shifted my gaze to Xiao Zhu beside me, and asked hesitantly, "Xiao Zhu, do you know anything about Chu Feng?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhu's expression suddenly grew tense, like a frightened deer. She lowered her head slightly, not daring to meet my gaze. She lowered her voice and replied softly, "Miss, speaking of this Master Chu Feng, he's one of the most respected figures in our sect. Not only does he possess peerless martial arts skills, he's also one of the best in the entire sect. His position within the sect is crucial, truly pivotal. Furthermore, he's known for his integrity, earning him the respect and admiration of everyone. It's just that...Miss, you've always been at odds with him, opposing him on every front. Xiao Zhu has always felt that this approach is a bit too dangerous."
I frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure on my face, and said softly, "Xiao Zhu, let's not talk about the past anymore. I just want to know more about him. Can you tell me what he's usually passionate about?"
Xiao Zhu slowly raised his head upon hearing the voice, staring at me. After a moment's thought, he finally responded, "Miss, Mr. Chu Feng usually spends his days either diligently practicing his skills or immersing himself in books. He rarely chats with others and is always alone. However, his attitude towards Miss Yun Yao is quite different!"
Hearing this, my curiosity was instantly piqued, and I hurriedly asked, "Special? What kind of special method is it? Tell me in detail."
Seeing this, Xiao Zhu quickly came over to my side and continued in a low, mysterious voice, "Miss, you might not know this, but whenever Master Chu Feng sees Miss Yun Yao, he's the first to greet her warmly. Not only that, he often helps her solve various problems. I remember one time, Miss Yun Yao was hiking up the mountain alone and got lost. There was no one around, and just when Miss Yun Yao was extremely anxious, it was Master Chu Feng who showed up in time, found her, and brought her back home safely!"
I nodded thoughtfully and said, "So that's how it is. Does Master Chu Feng have any particular likes or dislikes?"
Xiao Zhu replied, "Miss, Xiao Zhu heard that Master Chu Feng likes orchids very much. His residence is surrounded by various orchids. As for what he hates, Xiao Zhu is not sure."
I silently took note of this information, thinking it might be useful in the future. I then asked, "Xiao Zhu, who are the other important figures in the sect?"
Xiao Zhu thought for a moment and said, "Miss, besides Master Chu Feng and Miss Yun Yao, there are also the Sect Master and several elders. The Sect Master is kind and generous, and treats all the disciples well. The elders are also highly respected people, and they are responsible for teaching the disciples martial arts and principles."
I nodded and said, "Xiao Zhu, thank you for telling me so much. I feel like I understand this place a little better now."
Xiao Zhu smiled and said, "Miss, this is what Xiao Zhu should do. As long as you are in good health and in a good mood, Xiao Zhu will be happy."
Hearing Xiaozhu say this, I felt a little touched. I looked at Xiaozhu and said sincerely: "Xiaozhu, you are such a good maid. Whatever happens in the future, we will face it together."
Xiao Zhu's eyes sparkled with tears, and she said excitedly, "Miss, I'm really happy that you can say that. Xiao Zhu will always be with you."
I sat on the edge of the bed, my chin resting on my hands, lost in deep thought. Xiaozhu looked at me worriedly from the side. She wanted to ask, but was afraid to disturb me, so she could only stand there quietly, her eyes full of concern.
