(I owe everyone 10 chapters.) [The Imperial Consort could have been so much more than what we were shown.] --- Genius Neurosurgeon Lǐ Xīnyuàn died while being held at the gunpoint to perform a surgery on a terrorist leader. When he opened his eyes, he had transmigrated into a world similar to a Webnovel he'd been forced to read by a colleague. Now you'd think Lǐ Xīnyuàn had transmigrated into that Webnovel. But did he? No! Instead he'd been transmigrated into that webnovel's spin-off/"what-if" version of the story with nothing but the superficial knowledge of the plot thanks to reading the main novel. Now tasked with the mission of avoiding plotholes, unnecessary dog-blood, death and following the storyline to ensure the male lead's ascension to the throne of Supreme Emperor, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. And why did no one tell him that his character had to be married into the Male Lead's harem?? What about the Female Lead? Later: Lǐ Xīnyuàn: Why doesn't Your Highness spend the night with concubine Yang? ML: Don't want to. Lǐ Xīnyuàn: ... Why? ML: Are you pushing me away? Lǐ Xīnyuàn: QAQ --- 100-150 PS = 1 extra chapter on Sunday 25, 50, 75... Golden Tickets = 1 extra chapter on Sunday 3-5 Gifts = 1 extra chapters (or more depending on the value of the gifts)
Li Xinyuan merely shook his head as an answer to Hu Lijing's words. His lips were pursed into a tight line when he raised his head to meet Hu Lijing's gaze with his own, deep, dark and molten gold swirling in his irises.
"I would've understood." He said simply. "Trust me, I would have."
Hu Lijing smiled slightly as he shuffled to turn his body to face the gurgling stream, his eyes following the water now that he felt calmer than he had been in hours. "Truly?" He murmured in a low voice. "How so, if I may ask, Xinyuan?"
That was the problem, was it not? Li Xinyuan had no way of answering that without immediately outing himself as a transmigrator, a man who neither belonged to this time nor this world.
He stood up, knees slightly aching as he trudged to Hu Lijing's side and sat down on his left, knees folded under himself as he glanced at the nine-tailed fox.
