I was a miserable doctor who one day transmigrated into a cliché, melodramatic novel titled The Secret History of the Forbidden City, becoming a notorious chief eunuch. Fortunately, I am a fake eunuch.
Being a fake eunuch is one thing, but I have been saddled with a deadly system mission: kill the main villain and save the male lead. I look helplessly at the pathetic young villain, a pitiful little prince whose mother has just died. The little brat glares at me gloomily and says, “You will regret this.”
He is so cute that I cannot bring myself to do it. I let out a sigh and force a kindly smile, saying, “Your Highness, do not be afraid. I am a good person.” The little brat replies coldly, “Eunuch dog.”
What a brat. Fine, I will just raise him well, and he will be better when he grows up.
After he grows up, things seem to go wrong. The young, handsome, black lotus Emperor pins me firmly to the dragon bed with one hand. His deep eyes are blood-red, yet his voice is soft and gentle: “Sir, I finally understand. You were only good to me because of this face of mine.”
“???”
“A nephew resembles his uncle. I am nothing more than a counterfeit of your uncle, am I not?”
“No, listen to me, let me explain.”
Damn it, how am I supposed to explain this? That uncle is the male lead from the original novel, the person the system tasked me to save! It is a work assignment, do you understand?

Title: Mistakenly Treating the Villainous Immortal Lord as the Target for Redemption
I transmigrated into a melodramatic danmei novel with the mission to save the original shou and prevent him from turning villainous. I snuck into the villain’s lair, rescued the young original shou, and spent many years struggling to raise the frail boy into a handsome young man. To win his trust, I even concocted a superstitious, feudal story: “You saved my life in a past life, so I am here to repay the debt in this life.” He actually believed it.
I felt relieved. Such a naive, sweet boy should not turn evil.
Until one day, the system informed me that I had identified the wrong person. I had mistaken the young, great villain, Gu Xuecheng, the Lord of Lingxiao City, for the original shou. The only way to remedy this is to fake my death immediately and find the real original shou under a new identity.
Damn it.
Everyone in the world knows that the cold and ruthless Lingxiao City Lord, Gu Xuecheng, had a white moonlight who died to save him. That person is Gu Xuecheng’s untouchable reverse scale and a scar etched deep into his heart.
But no one knows that at this very moment, in a remote little town, that dead white moonlight is gently coaxing a beautiful young man to drink his medicine: “Be good, it is not bitter. You ask why I am so good to you? Did I not tell you? You saved my life in a past life.”
Gu Xuecheng once believed that the man who saved him from hell, the man who gently promised to repay his debt, was a light that belonged only to him. But he was wrong. He looked at that incomparably familiar man and the arrogant, beautiful young man beside him and felt his heart bleeding.
