Transmigrated as the Villain's Fiancée Who Seeks Death (GL) - Chapter 1

At 11:50 PM, an editor at an obscure small magazine company, diligently working overtime, published a news story.

The headline was—[Teenage Girl Killed on the Street by Assailant After Heroic Act, Rescued Person Has Yet to Appear].

The news was accompanied by a picture.

It was a photo of the crime scene. The girl’s back of the head seemed to have been struck by a blunt object, and a large pool of blood stained the ground beneath her. Next to her was a smashed strawberry cake. A few brightly colored, luscious strawberries had rolled onto the girl’s black hair, and sweet cream smeared her face. Up to her very last moment, her eyes were gazing in the direction of the alley entrance, as if waiting for someone.

The girl lay in the deep alley for two whole days before being discovered by a passing reporter.

The urban villages in S City have always been a “tough nut to crack” for the government. The reporter’s camera, while touring the area, accidentally captured the tragic sight of the dead girl in the alley. The footage was broadcast on television, immediately drawing the high attention of relevant authorities.

The details of the case are now clear: a group of street thugs attempted to assault a girl. The deceased girl, who was passing by, stopped the assault and rescued the victim, but was accidentally beaten to death by the thugs. Currently, all the thugs involved have been brought to justice.

The release of this news instantly caused a huge uproar online.

The public discussion reached a fever pitch, with most people crying out for justice for the girl. A kind person had not only failed to be rewarded but had paid the price with her life, a fact that was both frustrating and regrettable.

There were also those with dark minds who said the girl deserved it for interfering in something that wasn’t her business; such comments were immediately countered by the public.

More people, because of this incident, began to focus on the redevelopment of the urban village. If the place hadn’t been so filthy, disorderly, and overlooked, the heroic girl might have been saved, and wouldn’t have had to exhaust her life waiting for the person she was waiting for.

The greatest controversy centered on the rescued person who had yet to appear.

From beginning to end, the rescued girl never once went to see her savior. Even after being widely reported by the media, the truth of the case was revealed, and the parties involved were found, there was no news about the rescued person.

Netizens could only sigh at the coldness of human nature. That rescued girl disheartened countless people.

The information of the deceased girl was posted online.

Her name was Xia Rushui. She was a student in the Electronic Engineering Department at C University, a consistent recipient of the first-class scholarship, and had represented C University in a national electronic technology competition, winning first place.

She was an orphan, without parents, who had supported herself through college by working odd jobs and lived in a rented room in the urban village.

It was the owner of the cake shop where she frequently worked who claimed Xia Rushui’s ashes after cremation.

The loss of one life is enough to make people feel sorrowful, much less such an excellent, young life with infinite possibilities, sacrificed in such a tragic and heroic way. This evoked even more deep sighs and lamentations from the public.

Days later, enthusiastic netizens organized the public to hold a grand funeral for Xia Rushui. The procession formed a long line, accompanying her on her last journey in this world.

The portrait was a candid photo of Xia Rushui. The girl in the picture wore light blue overalls and black-and-white sneakers, possessing the unique lively energy of youth. Her face was full of collagen, naturally bright and stunning without makeup. Her pair of watery, peach-blossom eyes sparkled with charm as she glanced around. When she smiled, her eyes curved, and the gentle sunlight sprinkled all over her, mixing a color like crushed gold into her pupils. One look was enough to make people unable to look away.

Although her enthusiasm and kindness did not receive the reward they deserved, people still hoped this kind girl could leave the world with a smile. Many people remembered her and prayed for her.

This world is still a beautiful place.

May we meet in the next life, and may you still be as fresh as the spring breeze.

On the day Xia Rushui was taken to the cemetery, the bright, sunny sky suddenly darkened, and a heavy downpour began without any warning.

A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, and a blinding white light fell on the girl’s portrait.

At the same time, on the twenty-sixth floor of the highly-priced CBD, the priceless burning incense that had constantly filled the CEO’s office suddenly lost its scent.

Xia Rushui was awakened by the deafening noise of the music.

The luxurious and exaggerated crystal chandelier overhead shone with dazzling light. The strong smell of alcohol and tobacco permeated the room. She rubbed her nose, a bit unaccustomed to it.

This seemed to be a private room in a bar or KTV. The table was covered with bottles scattered haphazardly. The room was full of people, clustered in twos and threes, chatting and fooling around enthusiastically.

Xia Rushui was a little dazed.

One second she was lying in the dirty, dilapidated alley of the urban village, dying with regret, and the next second she opened her eyes and found herself in a world of wild revelry.

Not far away, a woman in a fitted top and short skirt, with a graceful, alluring figure, was twisting her body while hoarsely shouting at the top of her lungs: “Blood and tears slide together! My heart is broken and weathered! Trembling hands cannot stop, cannot forgive!”

Xia Rushui: “…”

Just then, someone next to her snatched the liquor bottle from Xia Rushui’s hand, put an arm around her shoulder, and said with a smile, “Shui Shui, Carpe Diem. Women come and go. What’s a not-yet-fully-developed Shen Yishu? Tonight, big sis will show you something better.”

What… something better?

Wait… was that really the next line after “Carpe Diem”? Then it was a terrible injustice that she lost points for that line in her college entrance exam!

Another female voice chimed in: “Exactly! How dare Shen Yishu play hard to get and refuse our Shui Shui? She should take a look at herself in the mirror! Does she deserve Shui Shui? If you ask me, Shui Shui giving her attention is a compliment. I’ve never seen anyone so ignorant. Shui Shui, just dismiss her like a fart.”

Shen Yishu? That name… sounds familiar.

Before Xia Rushui could react, the person beside her had changed.

Two women with outstanding figures sandwiched Xia Rushui between them.

The two girls looked different and were dressed differently.

One was dressed like a pure, black-haired goddess, while the other was a heavily made-up, fiery-red-lipped big-wave Milf. She looked like the hot and explosive type.

!!!

Holy crap! This is a little too exciting.

The pure-looking, black-haired older sister seemed a bit reserved, not as uninhibited as the fiery beauty. The alluring Milf wrapped her arm around Xia Rushui’s arm as soon as she sat down.

The woman’s two warm, soft, snow-white beacons lightly brushed against Xia Rushui’s shoulder. Xia Rushui glanced down slightly and saw two gigantic, blood-pumping, “Big White Bunny” brand beacons!

Ooooh! Ooooh! Ooooh! Xia Rushui felt her entire worldview was being challenged! She had never seen ones this big!

Holy cow, is this real? All-natural, unpolluted, harmless?

I really… I really want to touch one!

The beautiful Milf nestled beside her instantly guessed Xia Rushui’s thoughts. She chuckled, her red lips close to Xia Rushui’s ear, and said suggestively, “Want to know if it’s real? Little sister, why don’t you touch it and find out? Big sis doesn’t mind you touching~”

The soft, lilting voice fell next to Xia Rushui’s ear. The hot breath from the woman’s speaking even sprayed onto her neck.

A flush spread from Xia Rushui’s neck all the way to her earlobes.

No! Was she really a person with such little self-control? Who are you looking down on!

Xia Rushui desperately controlled the nosebleed that was about to erupt, mentally reciting the Diamond Sutra, and maintaining a dignified expression. She felt as calm as the Tang Monk entering the Spider Web Cave.

In reality, while having this internal monologue, Ms. Xia’s hand didn’t know where to rest, and her eyes, glued to the woman’s beacons, hadn’t moved.

Her eyeballs were about to run away with the woman’s pair of bobbing Mount Everests.

As a professional extra who frequently worked in Hengdian, Xia Rushui’s professional expertise was vast, and she immediately got into character.

Xia Rushui tried hard to appear calm. She pressed down the woman’s hand, which was attempting to reach into her shirt, and used all her wisdom to utter one line: “Woman, you are starting a fire.”

This line immediately drew laughter from everyone around.

“Hahahahahaha Shui Shui, what’s wrong with you? Too drunk?”

Isn’t that how it’s written in novels? There’s nothing wrong with it. That’s how it was played in those Mary Sue idol dramas she was an extra in.

Could it be that her delivery was wrong?

Before she could figure out what was wrong, the beautiful Milf made another move.

The charming beauty smiled alluringly. Her warm, soft hand covered Xia Rushui’s hand, which was resting on her knee like an old monk in meditation, and guided it to press onto…

I… I touched it!!!

It was soft and warm, like cotton candy. It even moved when her finger gently touched it. Wait… where is her hand???

Ms. Xia’s scattered gaze immediately focused on one point, then slowly moved up, meeting the beauty’s eyes…

Something warm seemed to uncontrollably slip out.

One drop… two drops… three drops…

Falling onto the white clothing, only a single, refined literary phrase remained in her mind: Red plums reflected in white snow.

Someone exclaimed, “Shui Shui! You’re bleeding from the nose!”

This cry finally brought Xia Rushui back to her senses. She shot up like a monkey whose bottom was on fire, quickly shook off the Milf’s hand, and a fiery blush visibly spread across her fair little face. She fled the private room as if escaping.

This moment was a huge stain on her acting career!

“Hahahahahahahahahahahaha” The prolonged laughter echoed in the private room after Xia Rushui ran out.

In the bar’s restroom mirror, Xia Rushui washed away the non-stop nosebleed and also scrubbed off the garish, exaggerated makeup that looked like a ghost’s painting.

Without the heavy makeup, the body’s original appearance was revealed.

The person in the mirror looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, three or four years younger than her original body, and bore an 80% resemblance to her own face. The only thing that felt out of place was the wine-red, big-wave curly hair.

To be honest, this long, silky hair was quite beautiful, but it felt a little heavy on her head.

Sitting on the toilet in the restroom, Xia Rushui felt complicated.

Even though she was a staunch materialist, she had to accept the cruel reality before her eyes.

She had transmigrated into a book.

Based on the snippets of conversation from the women in the private room, Xia Rushui had basically figured things out.

Xia Rushui was a little overwhelmed now.

She had transmigrated into the GL slice-of-life comedy novel she once read, The President’s Runaway Little Sweetheart: A Pampered Darling of a Wealthy Family!!!

She had only accidentally seen the novel promoted on Weibo, been drawn to the character with her same name in the summary, and clicked in out of curiosity to take a look.

For the record, Xia Rushui rejected this novel with its embarrassing title and its vulgar, melodramatic Mary Sue plot. She really just wanted to see the ending of the character with the same name! She absolutely did not become obsessed with this book!

Xia Rushui was, of course, not the female lead. She had transmigrated as the fiancée of the great villain, Jiang Xingzhi, who was only gentle and devoted to the female lead and ruthless as the autumn wind to everyone else!

The character with her name in the book was a vicious female supporting character whose role was to persecute the female lead in every way, making it her mission to take down the female lead.

The original owner, due to family reasons, held the position of fiancée to Jiang Xingzhi, the female lead’s staunch and unwavering protector. Yet, she also brazenly and passionately pursued the female lead’s official partner, Shen Yishu. Her manipulative tactics against the female lead were endless and unpredictable, a whole saga in itself. In the later stages, the karma came back to her. An exasperated Jiang Xingzhi drove her out of the Jiang family and dissolved the engagement.

But the original owner was an unyielding Crystal Girl! Her spirit was with the female lead!

Even when she was living on the streets, she still didn’t give up. She sold her body and hired a hitman, attempting to kill the female lead. Finally, Jiang Xingzhi had her locked up in a mental hospital, where she committed suicide.

Whether it was truly a suicide is debatable. Xia Rushui suspected that the so-called suicide was arranged by the villain, Jiang Xingzhi, to avenge her frightened darling female lead.

And now, with incredibly bad luck, she had transmigrated into the body of this vicious female supporting character who was supposedly killed by her own fiancée…

Xia Rushui: Smile gradually vanishing.jpg

As soon as she walked out of the restroom door, Xia Rushui suddenly felt a weight on her shoulder—she was attacked by a drunk person.

The smell of perfume and pungent alcohol rushed into Xia Rushui’s nasal cavity. The person slurred aggressively in her ear, “&*%￥# Just give up! I never sleep with the same woman twice!”

Who asked you to sleep with me?!

Though the person said that, they held Xia Rushui tightly, even attempting to jump onto her back.

Even Xia Rushui, who had some basic fighting skills, couldn’t shake off this clingy annoyance on her shoulder. The person even found a moment to quickly leap, clamping her waist with two straight, slender legs and wrapping her arms around Xia Rushui’s neck, successfully vaulting onto her back.

Xia Rushui couldn’t react in time. This body was only that of a seventeen- or eighteen-year-old girl. How could she bear the weight of an adult? Her head snapped back, and she was about to fall down, bringing the person behind her with her.

In the nick of time, someone steadily caught her, preventing the two from tumbling down in a pile.

The person on Xia Rushui’s shoulder was “ripped” off. The woman who caught Xia Rushui was dressed in a simple, practical black suit. With a quick, clean chop to the neck, she knocked out the drunken woman.

“…” A truly iron-blooded heroine, I see.

“I apologize, I’ve caused you trouble. Are you…” The suit-wearing woman frowned, her voice tinged with doubt: “Miss Xia?”

Who is this? The suit-wearing woman? She knows the original owner, and she seems to despise her. Stoic, with a full-on villain aura. Could she be her cheap fiancée?

Xia Rushui’s lips trembled. She tentatively tried, “Jiang…”

The woman carried the knocked-out person on one shoulder, while using the other hand to hold the back of Xia Rushui’s collar to prevent her from escaping. Her tone was somewhat impatient, “CEO Jiang is outside.”

Goodness, good thing she was interrupted before she finished.

What is Jiang Xingzhi doing here? Is she specifically here to catch her? How should she act when she sees Jiang Xingzhi?

She vaguely remembered that the original owner was actually quite obsessed with her fiancée in the beginning, and did a lot of weird things just to get Jiang Xingzhi’s attention.

Xia Rushui was carried like a little chick by the woman to a luxurious RV parked outside the bar.

The interior of the car was dimly lit. Xia Rushui was slightly nearsighted and could only vaguely make out a tall, expressionless woman with a laptop on her lap, typing away furiously.

This person’s demeanor was much more imposing. Her face was cold and serious, clearly the aura of a successful person.

The first woman wasn’t Jiang Xingzhi; she was probably just Jiang Xingzhi’s bodyguard.

Although Xia Rushui really wanted to ask why the bodyguard was wearing a suit—wouldn’t that make it hard to fight in a group brawl—she held back.

As a professional extra from Hengdian, Xia Rushui once again got into character in a second. She put on a look of surprise and enthusiastically said to the cold woman: “Oh, dear~ Honey, why are you here? Did you come specifically for me? I’m so happy~” She made a coy gesture, her puppy eyes sparkling and her expression as sincere as could be.

Everyone in the car was sent a shiver down their spine.

Only that person remained calm as a breeze. She gave Xia Rushui a strange look, closed her laptop, and said to the person hidden in the darkness, “CEO Jiang, if there are no other issues, I’ll be leaving now.”

Xia Rushui: “…”

“Mhm.” A noble, detached voice, with no discernible emotion.

The sound of the car door closing was heard, and the driver smoothly started the car. Xia Rushui, this ignorant, poor commoner, began to feel that this expensive, luxurious RV was uncomfortable on her bottom.

In the midst of the silence, Jiang Xingzhi quietly looked over. Her light brown pupils reflected Xia Rushui’s frozen, fake smile. She silently raised an eyebrow.

Her features were exquisite, her skin as fair as porcelain. A pair of upswept phoenix eyes, viewed through thin gold-rimmed glasses, looked over, instantly giving off a sense of pressure.

A weight like a person breaking stones on her chest pressed down on Xia Rushui’s heart.

That raised eyebrow was far more terrifying than the flirtation of the big-chested older sister.

Darn it! Mistaking her own fiancée for someone else!

Author’s Note:

The current CEO Jiang (Calm and composed): There’s no way I’d ever fall in love with an idiotic girl who can’t even recognize her own fiancée.

The future CEO Jiang (Anxious and apprehensive): She can’t recognize me because I’m too mediocre! Did I not make enough money?! (Chicken coop warning!)
