"Speak! Why did you push Ah Shou into the water?"

The man's expression was calm, but his voice was extremely ruthless. His black brocade robe accentuated his tall and slender figure. He was glancing sideways at the woman on the ground with eyes full of disgust.

The woman slumped to the ground, her dark hair wet and clinging to her face, her eyes still glazed over as if she had just woken up, clearly having been forcibly awakened by being splashed with water.

Faced with the man's questioning, she pursed her red lips and remained silent.

[Host! Answer the male lead's question quickly! Otherwise, you're going to die again!]

The system's urgent shouts in her mind finally elicited a slight expression from the woman on the ground.

Shen Zhizhi slowly raised her eyes, her stubborn eyes filled with misty tears. Her pitiful appearance made the system want to praise the host's acting skills as perfect.

However, the next second—

"Go ahead and kill me if you dare! I'll be back in action after watching this 15-second ad! You piece of trash!"

She boldly raised the international peace sign to the man in front of her.

system:?!

"..."

The man paused slightly, his dark eyes suddenly turning cold, and he turned and took a step to the side.

He spoke coldly: "Kill!"

Before the system could react in time, a red-clad guard appeared outside the window. Without hesitation, he nocked an arrow and moved swiftly.

In a panic, Shen Zhizhi raised Er Kang's hand: "Wait—!"

Whoosh whoosh!

Before the words were finished, three arrows, carried by a gust of wind, pierced through the air and aimed directly at Shen Zhizhi's vital points.

A scream rang out, and the screen went dark.

Shen Zhizhi returned to the virtual space surrounded by green code.

She looked up and saw a huge floating display screen above her, displaying only four large characters:

"Mission failed"

"Host! You started with three lives, and now look what you've done! You've got nothing left but your underwear! Can't you just focus on completing the mission?"

The mechanical sound of the system crashing to its limit rang out, and Shen Zhizhi looked in the direction of the sound.

Its entire body is made of metal, and it is so exquisite that it is unlike ordinary robots. Only upon closer inspection can one discover that its eyes are screens that can display emoticons based on its emotions.

"I've been doing my mission properly," she sighed, speaking sincerely.

The system rolled its eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. It wasn't blind or deaf; if it hadn't just heard her reckless remarks, it would have almost thought it had really wronged her.

Shen Zhizhi glanced at it, and seeing its expression, she knew it definitely didn't believe what she said: "I just thought that if I were a little more assertive, he might think I was different from others."

The system's eyes were practically popping out of their sockets.

What? Different from others?

Does that mean she's rushing forward to her death? Then she's certainly quite unique.

"According to the normal development of a novel, shouldn't he give me a wicked smile, with a hint of surprise, a hint of unruliness, and a hint of arrogance in his eyes, and then say to me, 'Woman, congratulations on successfully getting my attention.'"

system:!?

Listening to its host's serious analysis, the system felt as if it had been struck by lightning.

Is its host dreaming here?

However, Shen Zhizhi was helpless because her personal teaching experience proved that this situation only happened to people with the protagonist's halo.

If a cannon fodder like her dares to stand up to the male supporting character, then the scene at the beginning will only happen.

Yes, she transmigrated into a book called "The Princes' Beloved Darlings".

The man who killed her with an arrow was one of the male supporting characters in the story, named Chu Chouchi. He was bloodthirsty, cruel, cold-hearted, and indifferent, but he was devoted to the female lead.

The female protagonist in the original book is the second young lady of the Prime Minister's mansion, named Shen Qinshou.

When this name is mentioned, Shen Zhizhi can't help but talk about it. At first, she felt that the author's choice of name was out of place, but later, she understood.

Because of this female lead—

He really is a beast!

These male supporting characters were not originally irredeemably evil.

It's all Shen Qinshou's fault, the Queen of the Sea. She clearly loves the male lead Zhang Jiali, but she keeps hanging around the male supporting characters, making them infatuated with her.

After Haihou came ashore, the fishpond suffered.

But she simply said to these male supporting characters who loved her to the point of obsequiousness, "I already have someone I love. I hope you can all find your own beloved women soon and forget about me."

From then on, the male supporting characters became mad and turned evil out of jealousy of Zhang Jiali.

He was placed under house arrest, coerced, and forced to commit a series of acts that violated moral values, which resulted in several thousand chapters of writing. The printed novel was thicker than ten Xinhua dictionaries.

Shen Zhizhi couldn't stand reading anymore after only reading half of it. She almost wanted to grab a razor blade, run down the internet cable to the author's house, and cut out the author's brain to see what kind of nonsense was inside.

Anger prompted her to post a lengthy comment under the book review, wishing the author's ancestors well.

The moment she clicked send, the phone screen suddenly cracked open, and a blinding white light burst out, quickly engulfing her and causing her to lose consciousness.

After regaining consciousness, she found herself in this space, where she encountered a guy who claimed to be a transmigration system who wouldn't let her go.

Thinking of this, Shen Zhizhi couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. With mixed feelings, she sighed and called out, "Braised duck egg..."

"My name is Ya Dan! It's the 'Ya' in 'girl'! It's a dot, a left-falling stroke, and a vertical stroke! It's not the 'Ya' in 'bird duck'!"

Before she could finish speaking, the man known as "Braised Duck Egg" angrily stood in front of her and shouted.

"Oh, okay, bay leaf duck head." Shen Zhizhi didn't indulge it at all.

"..." Ya Dan was in tears.

"Host, as long as you earnestly save these love-obsessed villains, prevent them from turning evil because of their struggle for the female lead, and turn them into kind, clear-headed, and positive men, bringing this extremely distorted novel back onto a normal path, you can go home..."

Ya Dan was tireless, like a chatterbox, circling around Shen Zhizhi again and again, patiently and persistently trying to persuade her.

Shen Zhizhi curled her lips in disdain.

Hmph, saving a villain with a love-struck brain?

Many young women in their prime can't even cure their best friends' obsession with romance, so asking them to cure complete strangers is really too easy.

"Host! Are you even listening to me?!" Seeing her host lost in thought again, Ya Dan roared in despair.

The stern shout startled Shen Zhizhi, instantly pulling her thoughts back to reality: "I heard it, I heard it with both ears."

Ya Dan said with exasperation, "Host, I solemnly remind you that you only have one last life left. If Chu Chou Chi kills you again, you will also die in real life."

Tsk, is this all you can do to scare her?

Shen Zhizhi lay down on the ground, took out a white chrysanthemum from somewhere and placed it on her chest, crossed her hands obediently on her abdomen, and closed her eyes.

"Then I'll trouble you. Just prepare my funeral; I don't want to live anymore! Please have one line engraved on my epitaph: 'Thank you for visiting me. I'll come find you tonight.'"

[Warning! Must read! (Don't bother complaining in the comments later, it'll upset you and me too.)]

First, the female lead isn't the kind of powerful heroine who can instill fear in people with just a glance. If you're looking for a powerful heroine, please go to the next show, "The Legend of Wu Zetian."

Secondly, my female protagonist also has flaws. She's not the kind of clever, scheming heroine who's all-knowing. Because the plot is absurd, she occasionally has to be a bit dim-witted, which drives the comedic moments. (Important)

Third, it lacks logic and reason. If you're good at history, please forget about it and go read "Empresses in the Palace." Don't read this kind of mindless, feel-good novel; I can't handle it.

Fourth, the female protagonist's purpose in this story is to reform the villain. Don't talk to me about moral blackmail; her mission is simply to turn the villain into a sunny, cheerful young man.

Fifth, I've already cleared out the potential pitfalls for you. If you don't like it, please leave immediately. Seriously, don't talk nonsense. I have a really bad temper and I might actually yell at you.

Don't like it? Please scroll away! Thank you for your cooperation!

(I have to do manual labor in real life, write at night, and read negative reviews. My resentment is greater than a ghost right now, so please don't bother me.)
