He Zhuoming transmigrates into Seeking the Dao, the sprawling, no-romance xianxia novel she never finished, and finally gets her wish: she meets her favorite character, the villainous young man who was born rotten to the core. Then her beloved villain tricks her and sells her off. After a miserable existence of hunger and cold that ends with her being dragged away for a ghost marriage, He Zhuoming starts thinking that dying might not be so bad. Maybe once she's dead, she'll finally get to go home. That's when the saintly male protagonist she's never cared for descends from the heavens and hauls her out of her coffin. The beautiful young man, radiant as spring blossoms, hands her a steamed bun and encourages her to try cultivating; perhaps then she'll find a way home. He Zhuoming immediately throws herself around his leg and bursts into tears, swearing a solemn oath in her heart as she sobs: Saintly male leads are the best men in the entire world! From now on, I'll be the male lead's most loyal lackey! Helping the male lead uphold justice and beat that rotten little bastard of a villain to death is the sacred duty of every transmigrator under heaven. We cannot shirk our responsibility!!! In Deaf-Mute Village, Tang Shuyu rescues a strange girl who is always saying peculiar things like, "I'm never stanning a villain again," and, "Who said goody-two-shoes characters were bad? This one's amazing." When she isn't saying those, she's viciously cursing, "Tang Shuyu, you goddamn bastard! You're not even human!" Tang Shuyu knows she was deceived by someone using his name. Tang Shuyu knows she has mistaken him for a disciple of the righteous path. Tang Shuyu smiles as he listens to her hurl vicious insults at him, finding the girl especially lively and beautiful whenever she curses. Qingqing, Qingqing. Such a lovely voice, yet such a pitifully limited vocabulary. She only knows how to repeat the same handful of insults over and over. How adorable.
