The Male Lead's Sister Reborn (GL) - Chapter 1

It was three in the morning.

Jiang Qian tossed her phone onto the pillow and cursed, “What a terrible book!”

She opened her chat app and spammed her best friend group chat with messages: “This book is absolutely poisonous! The female lead has had four miscarriages, and the ‘white moonlight’ pushes her down the stairs three times, one time right in front of the male lead! And the male lead still defends the white moonlight? Pfft! Why does the female lead of this trash book have the same name as me? Why did I waste my time on this garbage? Now I just want to mail razor blades to the author!”

After her outburst, Jiang Qian finally felt relieved. She burrowed under her covers and picked up her phone, viciously pressing her finger onto the book’s cover.

With a swipe of her finger, the book titled Obsessive Doting: The Girl Can’t Escape was instantly removed from her favorites.

Jiang Qian stared at her phone, still feeling indignant. She went a step further and deleted the entire app.

“Pah! What a trashy app, recommending this garbage book. I’m over 2,000 chapters in, and the female lead is still having miscarriages! The male lead is still cheating! From the start, I was shocked by the plot where the female lead gets drugged at a bar, is saved by the male lead, and they have to sleep together to neutralize the drug.

“Isn’t this too old and cliche? I flipped through over 2,000 chapters just to see the male lead get his comeuppance, but there wasn’t a single hint of it. All the female lead did was swallow her pride—she gave up her career for the male lead, had miscarriages for him, and endured humiliation from all sorts of people… It was a bizarre book whose sole purpose seemed to be to infuriate the reader.

However, of all the characters in this book, the one Jiang Qian disliked the most wasn’t the main couple or the wicked female antagonist.

Those characters were all too formulaic—evil and stupid, with no unique traits.

On the other hand, the male lead’s older sister, Shen Xiruo, felt much more fleshed out.

This sister captured Jiang Qian’s attention the moment she appeared. She was cool, handsome, and incredibly beautiful—the true, dominant CEO of the book with the highest looks and assets. While the male lead inherited the family business, his sister took a different path, started her own company, and was able to stand on equal footing with him in just a few years.

It was a shame that such a beautiful and capable sister, upon meeting the female lead, kept intentionally and unintentionally trying to set her up with the male lead. She used every possible method to desperately assist her brother! Jiang Qian initially liked this sister, but then she became a wingman? Are you kidding me? Is this sister here just to annoy people? It’s so frustrating. She keeps saying it’s for the female lead’s own good, but she’s pushing her into the arms of her cheating, perverted brother? I just wanted to grab her by the shoulders and yell, ‘Wake up!’ As Jiang Qian mentally cursed Shen Xiruo, she drifted off to sleep.

In a semi-conscious state, she suddenly felt that something wasn’t right.

She snapped her eyes open and found herself not in her own bed.

What’s more, she was sitting in a difficult pose on a high stool in a bar, with an empty glass in front of her.

The noise of the bar instantly swirled around her, and the distinctive sounds flooded her mind, giving her a splitting headache.

Memories, clearly not her own, poured into her brain.

She quickly sifted through them and was stunned, her mouth hanging open.

What! I… I became that Jiang Qian? I transmigrated into the female lead, Jiang Qian, from that book Obsessive Doting: The Girl Can’t Escape? Ahh! I’m dead! I don’t want to become the female lead of a book like this! Jiang Qian panicked and tried to jump off the high stool, but she suddenly felt another wave of pain in her head.

She clutched her head, trying to recall her current situation.

At this very moment in the story, the female lead, Jiang Qian, has fallen for the trick of a middle-aged man, drinking a spiked cocktail that made her feel dizzy and unwell.

Next, the male lead is supposed to show up, play the hero, beat up the man and throw him out, then coldly turn to leave.

And the female lead… the female lead would reach out and tug on the male lead’s shirt, begging him to save her.

The male lead would then take her to a hotel and have sex with her, resulting in her getting pregnant right away. When the male lead finds out, he takes her home, promising to marry her only after she gives birth to his son… Ahhh! This plot is so toxic! Just thinking about it again is toxic! Jiang Qian held her head, unsure if the pain was from the toxic plot or the poisoned cocktail.

Why! Why couldn’t I have transmigrated just one minute earlier! Then I wouldn’t have drunk that spiked drink and could have escaped more easily! Unfortunately, the drug in this kind of illogical, cliche novel takes effect particularly fast. When Jiang Qian jumped off the high stool, her steps faltered, and she almost fell to her knees.

Beside her, the middle-aged man grinned lecherously and leaned in. “Little girl… wanna come home with me?”

Jiang Qian used all her strength to spit at the man. “Pah!”

This was something the gentle and sweet original female lead would never have done, but Jiang Qian was different. Since she was here, she might as well be direct and take down these idiots! Even if she didn’t have the means to do it right now… Jiang Qian stumbled and ran toward the bar’s exit, clutching her head. The middle-aged man angrily grabbed her arm.

Jiang Qian immediately grabbed a wine bottle from a nearby customer’s table and swung it at the man, but because of her dizziness, she only hit his hand.

The man swore and let go, but then he grabbed Jiang Qian even more viciously.

Jiang Qian screamed for help, “Help! He’s trying to kidnap me!” The bar was in chaos. Many people stood up to watch, but no one came to help.

Jiang Qian glanced around, unable to figure out who the male lead was.

After all, she had only read the book, and it just said the male lead was handsome beyond a mere mortal’s appearance, not his specific features.

She had no choice but to keep yelling, while randomly smashing the wine bottle from the table at the middle-aged man.

In the midst of the commotion, a clear voice suddenly cut through the haze and entered Jiang Qian’s ears: “Let her go.”

It was a woman’s voice, calm, cold, and very pleasant.

Then, an even more satisfying sound followed. The middle-aged man let out a shriek and slammed heavily onto the floor with a thud.

Jiang Qian, still clutching her throbbing temples, looked back. She saw a powerful woman in a red dress pinning the man to the ground and beating him up.

The beautiful woman didn’t hold back. She used wine bottles and ashtrays on the table as weapons, all aimed at the man’s head.

Jiang Qian couldn’t help but cheer in her heart: “Well deserved!”

The crowd buzzed with chatter. “Holy crap, what’s going on? That woman’s beating him so hard?” “Anyone who can fight like that must have a strong background. They’re not afraid of getting in trouble.” “Is that guy trying to abduct the girl? He deserves to be beaten.”

Jiang Qian stumbled to a chair and sat down, enjoying the sight of the beautiful woman fighting.

The woman was truly beautiful. Her fighting moves were crisp, her hair and the hem of her dress swished around her. Her eyes were cold, her expression indifferent, and her lips were like fire—she was a beautiful sight to behold… After the man’s face was bleeding and he passed out, the beautiful woman raised her head, her eyes looking straight at Jiang Qian.

Jiang Qian became nervous under her gaze.

The woman brushed her long hair back from her temple and walked toward her. Her gaze softened as she asked in a voice as clear as a mountain spring, “Are you okay?”

Jiang Qian was about to say she was fine, but the plot wouldn’t let her.

She was already dizzy, and with the sudden tension, she lost consciousness and fell forward.

The woman in the red dress quickly put her hand out and caught her head, preventing her from falling onto the table covered in broken glass.

The innocent-looking, charming girl, completely defenseless, fell right into the arms of the beautiful woman in red.

The woman in red frowned, then without hesitation, she lifted Jiang Qian’s arms, letting the other girl wrap them around her neck. She carried the unconscious Jiang Qian in a bridal hold and walked out of the bar.

When Jiang Qian woke up again, she found herself in the bed of a luxurious presidential suite.

And sitting in the chair next to the bed was the woman in the red dress.

Jiang Qian was stunned. She first lifted the blanket to check herself. Good, she was still fully clothed.

So, what was going on? Why was it a beautiful woman who saved her instead of the male lead? Did the plot go off course? Did that mean she was supposed to sleep with this beautiful woman and repay her with her body? Oh my God, why did it veer off course like this… this is… amazing!

Jiang Qian chuckled to herself. She was gay! Anyway, sleeping with a beautiful woman wouldn’t lead to pregnancy, and no pregnancy meant no miscarriages, so all that was left was pleasure! Plus, the effects of the drug were still there. Her whole body was hot and burning, as if a million needles were pricking her.

There was no helping it; in these kinds of cliche novels, the drug’s effects could only be resolved by sleeping with someone. This was the power of the plot’s setup.

Jiang Qian crawled over on the bed and blinked at the beautiful woman. “Beautiful lady… thank you for saving me…”

The woman in red turned her head, her expression indifferent. “It’s fine. Are you okay now? I’ll be leaving.”

Jiang Qian immediately put on a dramatic performance and fell back onto the bed. “Ah! I’m so dizzy! I’m so hot! I need help!”

The beautiful woman’s eyes darkened. She walked over to check. “You… need what?”

Jiang Qian licked her lips and, using the drug’s effect, wrapped her arms around the woman’s neck and licked her earlobe. “I… feel so bad…”

The beautiful woman lightly trembled, but did not resist.

Jiang Qian had a night of pure ecstasy.

The beautiful woman was incredibly gentle with her, but when it was time to be rough, she didn’t hold back at all. It made Jiang Qian feel like she was in heaven. She thought to herself, “This transmigration was totally worth it!”

The next morning, when she woke up, the bathroom was foggy and filled with steam.

The beautiful woman must be showering… Jiang Qian glanced at the messy bed. The drug’s effects were gone, and her rationality returned. When she thought about the wild night, she felt terrible.

Ahhh, did she lose her intelligence and caution just because she transmigrated? What should she do now? She had devoured someone… no, she had been devoured by someone. Was she supposed to take responsibility? How could she take responsibility when she had just arrived and had nothing?

Jiang Qian got out of bed barefoot and quietly went to the beautiful woman’s bag.

Under the bag, a simple yet elegant business card holder had fallen out.

Jiang Qian picked it up, thinking that she shouldn’t be heartless and should remember the beautiful woman’s name so she might have a chance to repay her later.

Then, she froze.

On the business card, two lines of text were clearly written:

Shen Xiruo

Chairwoman and Founder of Qingcheng Entertainment Media Group

…The male lead’s sister, Shen Xiruo? Was it the character she hated the most, Shen Xiruo?

Jiang Qian’s mind went blank. She stood there clutching the business card, looking like a beautiful statue.

Just then, a clear voice came from behind her: “What are you doing?”
