The Villainous Sister-in-law Mistakenly Marked as the Heroine (Transmigration) - Chapter 1

“Ouch! That hurts!”

Lin Qile instinctively reached for the source of pain before even opening her eyes.

Could the dead still feel pain?

She had thought herself incredibly lucky to land an internship at a top-tier municipal hospital right after graduation, only to end up getting caught in an explosion while trying to save someone on her way home.

Before her fingers could touch the wound, a cold yet soft hand gripped her wrist, followed by an icy voice: “Since you’re awake, stop pretending to be dead.”

Wow, what a voice!

Three parts alluring, seven parts domineering!

She snapped her eyes open, ready to thank her savior wait, what?

Something about this scene felt off.

The woman holding her wrist had chestnut curls pinned back with a crystal hair clip, a few strands cascading near her ears and faintly brushing against her collarbone.

Her face was stunningly beautiful yet bewitching, like a dark queen straight out of a manga.

But that wasn’t the main issue. The real problem was how cold the beauty was like a block of ice. The piercing gaze from those eyes sent a shiver down her spine.

“Had enough of staring?”

“Not yet, mmph!”

Before she could finish the word “yet,” her cheeks were pinched hard, forcing her mouth open.

The next second.

The woman shoved a bottle into her mouth.

“Mmm,  what cough?”

A chilling liquid flowed down her throat. She struggled to break free, but the cold beauty simply knelt on her stomach with one leg, lips curling into a bloodthirsty smirk. “Lin Qile, you dared to drug Wanning. You brought this on yourself.”

Wanning?

Drug?

She didn’t even know anyone named Wanning, let alone drug them!

What the hell was going on?!

Lin Qile’s mind spun in confusion until a sharp pain shot through her head, forcing her eyes shut.

[Finally connected.]

A voice suddenly echoed in her mind, freezing her in place.

Who was speaking inside her head?

[Don’t be scared. Let me introduce myself, I’m the Cannon Fodder Rescue System, and I’ve been waiting for you.]

“W-w-wait!” Had she transmigrated?

[Lin Qile, female, 26 years old. Graduated from medical school with a combined bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral program. Last week, you were accepted into the cardiothoracic surgery department of a top-tier hospital. Last night, you witnessed a car accident on your way home and rushed to help, only for the car to explode a second time. You were caught in the blast and are currently in the ICU.]

So she was fighting for her life in the ICU?

Then what was this situation?

Lin Qile’s thoughts were in complete disarray.

[You’re no longer in your original world. What I’m about to say is crucial, it’s your only way back.]

Her mind buzzed with static.

[You’re now inside a novel, where you play the role of a cannon-fodder side character. Here, see for yourself.]

As the system finished speaking, a surge of energy flooded her brain.

In an instant, countless images poured into her consciousness.

The original owner of this body was also named Lin Qile, a 25-year-old heiress to a centuries-old medical dynasty. Her grandfather was a revered national treasure of traditional medicine, unfortunately, neither his daughter nor granddaughter inherited his talent.

The original Lin Qile was not only ignorant but also arrogant and domineering, using her status as the Lin family’s young mistress to commit all sorts of outrageous acts.

The reason she was currently being pinned to a hotel bed and force-fed drugs was so morally bankrupt it made the upright Lin Qile want to vomit bl00d.

The original body had a fiancée named Rong Wanning, who was also one of the female leads in this book. Their engagement was arranged due to family reasons, but Rong Wanning had someone else in her heart and had always refused to develop feelings for the original body. However, the original body was infatuated with Rong Wanning, practically acting like a lovesick fool.

Stalking, secretly taking photos, using Alpha pheromones to get close to Rong Wanning, all of this only ended up fueling the relationship between Rong Wanning and Ji Zhao.

When Rong Wanning wanted to break off the engagement for Ji Zhao’s sake, the original body refused. Seeing that persistence wasn’t working, they resorted to underhanded tactics. Pretending to agree to cancel the engagement, they lured Rong Wanning over, intending to drug her and force the relationship.

Fortunately, Rong Wanning was quick-witted and knocked them out with a vase before tearfully calling her aunt. The beautiful woman who had just forced her to drink something was none other than Rong Wanning’s aunt, Rong Jing.

After skimming through the original body’s story like flipping through a picture book, Lin Qile could only think one thing: How embarrassing!

An Alpha trying to take advantage of a delicate Omega, only to get knocked out by a vase.

[Host, have you finished reading?]

“Yes, I have a few questions.”

[Go ahead.]

“Can I still return to my world?”

[Yes, as long as you complete the mission. Time in your world will freeze while you’re on this task. But if you fail, this world will collapse, and you’ll die inside this book.]

“What do I need to do?”

[Right now, you’re just a cannon fodder character. You’ve already seen the original body’s fate, attempting to harm the female lead, ending up with a ten-year prison sentence, and dying behind bars. You need to change this cannon fodder’s fate, become the protagonist, and complete your counterattack.]

As soon as the system finished speaking, a number appeared before her eyes.

Counterattack Value: 0

[This is your counterattack value. Once it reaches 100, the mission is complete. Any other questions?]

Lin Qile thought for a moment before asking, “Can you show me the entire plot of the book? The more I understand the story’s direction, the easier it’ll be to complete the mission.”

[No. From the moment you entered this world, every action you take will alter the book’s trajectory. I can’t spoil it for you. But you can work hard on your mission and purchase what you need from the system store.]

“Fine, I get it.”

Lin Qile couldn’t help but grumble inwardly, useless system.

[Alright, Host. Call me if you have more questions. I need to rest now. Good luck!]

The voice faded.

Lin Qile suddenly snapped back to reality.

The woman on top of her was still pinching her chin, forcing the medicine down. Despite her long conversation with the system, only a second seemed to have passed.

Once the drug was poured down her throat, Rong Jing’s red lips curled into a smile, but her eyes remained icy cold.

“Lin Qile, since you love drugging people, I’ll make sure you drink your fill.”

With that, she turned to the person beside her. “Wanning, go outside. I’ll handle this.”

Only then did Lin Qile react, jerking her head to see a delicate, tear-stained girl standing in the room undoubtedly one of the female leads, Rong Wanning.

Her teary eyes looked at Rong Jing. “Auntie, what are you going to do?”

Rong Jing glanced down at Lin Qile, then suddenly smiled. She patted Lin Qile’s cheek, her tone dripping with mockery. “Hah, thinking you can do whatever you want just because you’re an Alpha? Then I’ll give you a taste of your own medicine.”

Her cold fingertips brushed against Lin Qile’s face, leaving behind a tingling sensation.

Lin Qile’s heartbeat suddenly quickened. She felt the bl00d in her entire body rushing faster, her body growing feverish, her breath becoming labored. An unbearable sensation spread through her limbs, forcing a moan from her lips.

“Mmm.”

The medicine Rong Jing had forced down her throat had triggered her pheromones.

She was now forcibly entering an alpha’s sensitive period, with only two options: either go to the hospital for suppressants or bond with an omega!

Clearly, neither was possible.

A wise man submits to circumstances, the original owner had indeed been wrong, but she’d already been beaten to death with a vase. Please, don’t torment an innocent bystander like her!

“Rong,  Rong Jing, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have treated. Wanning like that. I’ll never dare again, I beg you,  please let me go!” The hapless Lin Qile pleaded pitifully.

“Let you go?” Rong Jing sneered, reaching out to pat her burning cheek. “A scumbag like you knows how to beg for mercy?”

“Mmm.”

Tears welled at the corners of Lin Qile’s eyes from the discomfort. Her consciousness began to blur, and in her struggle, she accidentally pulled Rong Jing toward herself. The cool touch, mingled with a faint fragrance, made her embrace the woman before her mind could even process it.

Rong Jing’s eyes widened in shock.

Since when did this good-for-nothing Lin Qile have such strength?

“I really know I was wrong, huff,  but if you treat me like this, how are you any different from me?”

Lin Qile murmured in her daze, breathing in the faint, cool scent.

This fragrance made Rong Jing momentarily lose focus.

“Auntie, are you okay?”

Hearing Rong Wanning’s voice, Rong Jing’s expression darkened. She shoved Lin Qile away and, seeing Wanning still standing there, frowned. “Wanning, leave first!”

Wanning wanted to say more, but seeing her aunt’s icy stare fixed on the person on the bed, she fell silent and retreated.

Only the two of them remained in the hotel room.

Rong Jing stood by the bed, looking down at Lin Qile, then slowly took out her phone and opened the camera.

On the screen, Lin Qile’s face was flushed, her lips slightly parted as soft moans escaped.

Rong Jing captured every humiliating detail before leaning in to threaten, “Lin Qile, if you don’t want your disgraceful state made public, cancel the engagement obediently and stay away from Wanning from now on.”

“Mmm, I promise, I promise everything, Please, just take me to the hospital first. Once I recover, I’ll come to apologize properly.”

Lin Qile’s entire body was flushed, tears glistening at her eyes as she tore at her clothes while pleading.

Rong Jing ignored her pleas, instead delighting in her wretched state with a mocking laugh. “What a pathetic sight you are.”

“I really know I was wrong, mmm…”

Stimulated by the pheromones, Lin Qile was drenched in sweat, her collar soaked, hair clinging to her face. Her unfocused eyes fixed on Rong Jing as she kept begging, “Please mercy.”

But the more she begged, the more the other woman seemed to enjoy it.

Eventually, Rong Jing even sat beside her, propping her chin as she admired the spectacle. “Keep begging. If you entertain me enough, I might let you go.”

She reached out to pat Lin Qile’s cheek.

Even a cornered rabbit will bite. Lin Qile suddenly grabbed her wrist. “Haven’t you had enough?!”

Her scorching palm enveloped the cool wrist.

In an instant, the pheromones emanating from Lin Qile swiftly enveloped Rong Jing. She wanted to struggle, but her body seemed to lose all strength at once, going limp as she collapsed onto Lin Qile.

Lin Qile sensed a cooling presence nearby. Unconsciously, she pounced forward, clinging like an octopus, feeling the person before her resembled a delicious ice cream.

So tempting,  so tempting.

Just one lick!

Rong Jing’s face flushed unevenly, white and red patches appearing as she furrowed her brows and gritted her teeth. “Let me go!” she demanded.

Lin Qile thought it and then did it.

A moist, warm tongue glided across Rong Jing’s neck, sending tingling waves through her. Her entire body stiffened, her struggles momentarily paralyzed by an overwhelming surge of pheromones.

This unfamiliar sensation sent her pupils trembling in shock.

She had always been indifferent to pheromones, never experiencing a heat cycle, so why was Lin Qile affecting her so easily?

“Mmm, cool, feels so good.”

Lin Qile was burning up, and the coolness of the person in her arms provided the perfect relief. Dazed, she tightened her embrace.

Rong Jing’s earlier aloofness was gone, her eyes reddening at the corners as she lifted her head in humiliated defiance. “You bastard, Lin Qile. l-let me go! If you dare touch me, I’ll kill you!”

But Lin Qile had long lost her rationality, driven purely by instinct as she clung desperately, her movements growing more urgent.

“You,  you’re dead, mmph!”

Lin Qile silenced her with a deep kiss, her tongue delving in, exploring and tasting.
