Bing Shi was doubting the legitimacy of the book Xuan Mu gave her. It sounded like a bullied person’s diary, otherwise, how could someone throw so much dirt on their leads? How to explain it? The book was forcing her to believe what it wanted her to believe... in short, it was too biased towards certain characters and it was jarringly obvious, “Hubby, I bet ten sweet potatoes that the author is Riley LeClére. I hope you gave him lots of pocket money to do your dirty job.”
“Daddy!” Sitting on Xuan Mu’s lap, Ying Xiong’s fists reached towards the unfinished pizza in his daddy’s hands, “Daddy, daddy.”
Lifting his left hand in provocation, Xuan Mu took a bite of the spicy pepperoni pizza. Making a funny face at his son, he chewed on the food as if it was the tastiest meal in the world.
“Mommy,” Ying Xong turned to his mommy for help. Daddy was bullying Stinky Bun again!
Bing Shi tilted her head from her book. She placed it on the coffee table before the couch and narrowed her eyes at Xuan Mu as if telling him to stop teasing their son, “Hubby...”
Xuan Mu finally fed his son some pizza, the slight spiciness caused the boy to scrunch his little face in confusion, “Wife, it’s about work efficiency.”
.....
Accepting another bite, Stinky Bun savored the new unfamiliar taste with a reddish face and in no time, his confused expression changed into a satisfied grin.
Compare Bing Shi’s expensive preparations to Xuan Mu’s cheap ones. HQ needed to implement more souls at a lower cost. Thanks to this, the number of souls quadrupled. What? Did someone really think he would waste his energy on searching and rewriting books into the world’s settings, alter people’s memories or maybe even timelines? As if!
Where would he find the time to read some stupid romance books or study all those souls’ lives? It was true that he picked a random book. He gave it to Riley as an ‘inspiration’. People like Riley, who knew this world and its people’s pasts, were the easiest to persuade to do his bidding, “I did give him...a lifetime’s worth of pocket money.”
Bing Shi hit her fist against her palm in realization, “So basically, you let Riley take revenge on his sister by making him write a book and let the other host act on the story they read.”
Silika Lin would have agreed to reincarnate faster if she was given an opportunity to write a book and be a part of the process as a main mastermind, rather than making her believe that Bing Shi’s acting was hers.
“Wasn’t it obvious from the start?” Giving his son some milk, Xuan Mu stared at her exaggerating fan-girl mode without any noticeable chance on his expression. Neither of them were really baffled by each other’s brilliance. Taking their ‘smartness’ as an everyday occurrence, there was nothing to be shocked about.
Whenever Bing Shi squealed in amazement at Xuan Mu’s scheming and cunning mind, a question mark would pop up above his head. Genius his ass. Once someone began to live with Bing Shi, they would start to realize how stupid they really were. Because she herself felt stupid, it would make one feel like a retard. And dear, how he felt it to the bones sometimes.

If anyone ever doubted the logic and realism behind the stories where characters were being transmigrated into a book, there was an answer which would make one question their opinions: As long as the genre of the book matched this world’s laws, Xuan Mu could take care of the rest. He would create a few events that would happen in the books, and leave behind the plot holes that authors like Riley didn’t bother to cover up to do their magic.
As for the souls that were being transmigrated: the first was a host due to whom all this had to be prepared; the second was a certain veteran host whose wish had to be granted; the third was the food lady, and last but not least, the fourth was the ‘kind’ Demon King.
Whoever transmigrated to the book’s female lead’s body would have a hard time resisting the three men at once. The best candidate was Ying Xiong’s food lady.
During one of his previous worlds, the pitiful food lady was hit by Ying Xiong’s favorite truck and died on the spot. Xuan Mu thought her soul would come in handy and decided to keep her until a situation called for it.
Now, when the chance arrived, he planned to let the food lady go against those individuals, but who knew he would stumble upon his wife?
The body, which should have been given to the food lady, would now belong to Bing Shi.
Because one of Xuan Mu’s goals was to become a god’s soul without killing his human soul, he would often take over the male lead’s role.
Xuan Mu preferred harem settings because he didn’t mind losing out in the endless battles competing for the female lead’s affection. Now that his wife was here, he wouldn’t be able to stick to his role if she was in a different body, other than a female lead’s. It would take too much effort to change the setting.
He also thought Bing Shi would be more of a challenge for everyone to crack. Especially when the two men, the veteran host, and the demon king, already had the ‘pleasure’ to meet his wife personally.
Only Bing Shi had the privilege to get into contact with unique broken souls that weren’t ‘blessed’ to have a soulmate. Without her, he was forbidden to even step foot in a world that contained one. Those mentioned above were all ‘healthy’ souls.
