Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart Chapter 1: Transmigrated As The Female Supporting Role

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Miss, you’ve frightened your dear servant here. You should have just put on a show. Why go through with it for real... Thankfully you’re unharmed. Otherwise, the duke and prince would have been heartbroken to death.”

Lying on the bed, Lu Liangwei heard her maidservant’s wails and couldn’t resist raising her hands to feel the strangulation marks around her neck.

Disbelief surged in her eyes at that moment.

She understood she had transmigrated into a novel she read just days earlier, embodying the supporting female character sharing her name.

The plot followed a seemingly frail girl who triumphed in a sisterly clash. Lu Yunshuang, the heroine and daughter of the secondary wife, was a gentle but steadfast young woman who aided male lead Long Chi’s rise to the throne, becoming his queen.

Her half-sister Lu Liangwei, though the duke’s official daughter, possessed a deplorable nature. Like Lu Yunshuang, she obsessed over Long Chi, resorting to every scheme to claim his heart. Even after his marriage to Lu Yunshuang, Lu Liangwei persisted, ready to demean herself as his concubine. Defying family resistance, she hanged herself precisely when Lu Yunshuang returned to her parental home post-wedding...

Lu Liangwei’s lips twitched. Destiny was pulling a massive prank on her. She had only mocked the supporting character’s foolishness, yet here she was, transmigrated into that very role.

Originating from 21st-century Cathay, she belonged to a lineage devoted to traditional Chinese medicine across generations. As the Lu family heir, she delved into it from childhood. Her healing abilities excelled, matched by her extraordinary aptitude in pharmacology. Skilled in herb combinations and poison creation, Lu Liangwei stood as a prodigy unseen by the Lu family in centuries.

Just days before, after wrapping up an experiment, she opted for some downtime. Powering up her phone, a novel ad appeared unexpectedly, and she clicked it on impulse.

Whether from utter boredom or the author’s captivating style, she binge-read the entire story.

The consequence? Transmigration into the supporting female lead.

‘That novel was jinxed. Had I foreseen this, I’d never have touched it.’

As remorse enveloped her, a sneering voice sounded from outside her chamber.

“Father’s negotiating with the Crown Prince about marrying you off as his concubine. Happy now?”

Recognizing the derisive tone, Lu Liangwei turned toward it. There stood a man of striking looks and sturdy build at her doorway, his gaze icy and hostile.

“Greetings, Prince.” Maidservant Zhu Yu hastily curtsied to the youth.

Lu Tingchen’s eyes blazed with blatant irritation. Lu Liangwei! Suicide over a man? Brilliant! Total disgrace!

Having berated Lu Liangwei, Lu Tingchen stormed away.

Lu Liangwei furrowed her brow. ‘Does Lu Tingchen believe I faked the suicide to force Father into approving my marriage to the Crown Prince as a concubine?’

She traced the strangle marks on her neck once more. Their depth confirmed the original Lu Liangwei’s demise.

For a pretense, would she truly gamble her life?

Seeing maidservant Zhu Yu deliberately dodging her eyes, Lu Liangwei realized Lu Tingchen wasn’t alone in that view. The whole Duke Mansion assumed she was acting too?

Lu Liangwei found her plight utterly exasperating.

She conceded the original Lu Liangwei was hopelessly foolish and worthless.

Ending her life over a worthless cad!

A sudden idea hit her, and she asked Zhu Yu, “Today’s the day the Crown Prince and Crown Princess visit her maternal home, right?”

“Yes, Miss. The duke is talking marriage with the Crown Prince at this moment...”

Before Zhu Yu could complete her words, she watched her young mistress spring from the bed and bolt out the door.
