I’m Competing With the Male Lead for a Woman

Xiao Jin transmigrated into a dog-blood, abusive novel as an obscure 18th-tier female supporting character. A peculiar woman who is crippled, cross-dressing, and infatuated with the male lead. None of this matters, because she won’t survive past chapter three anyway. The cannon fodder female supporting character is also named Xiao Jin. She is the Third Prince of Qi, a renowned war hero, and the “Ghost Rakshasa” feared by enemy generals. However, this war god, after a great battle, had both legs crippled, becoming a cripple who coughs blood after a few steps. Not only that, she also contracted tuberculosis, hanging on the verge of death. The reason is simple: this is an abusive novel. The male lead is the Crown Prince of Qi, and the female lead is a princess of a fallen Country. Xiao Jin’s sole purpose is to annihilate the female lead’s country and then gracefully exit the stage. At this moment, Xiao Jin, looking at her crippled legs and the large pool of blood she coughed up, felt her mental state collapsing. She calmly instructed the housekeeper to prepare a coffin, ready to lie down on an auspicious day. The system’s mechanical voice sounded. “Warning! Host’s life is only 48 hours remaining. Please complete the first mission as soon as possible to extend your lifespan.” “Mission 1: Bride Snatching—forcibly marry the female lead who is about to marry the second male lead.” System: “Friendly reminder, host, only after you complete all missions and have the female lead kill you will the life countdown stop, and you can return to your original world.” Xiao Jin fell silent. She imagined a terminally ill lung cancer patient, unable to walk upright, confidently wheeling herself in a wheelchair to snatch the bride on the female lead’s wedding day. “…” Xiao Jin: “Can I choose death?” System: “No, host.” After many twists and turns, Xiao Jin finally completed all her missions. On that day, the sky was high and clear, and the autumn geese flew south. Chu Shao, stepping over the corpses of cannon fodder, returned to her homeland and ascended the throne. The entire land bowed in submission. Xiao Jin, wearing a prison uniform, was escorted by guards, sitting in a wheelchair, looking up at the new emperor. She was satisfied. Now, everything was ready, waiting for Chu Shao to give her the final blow. Empress Chu Shao, with unparalleled beauty, wore a crown with twelve jade tassels. Carrying a long sword, she stepped down the stairs, gazing gently at Xiao Jin. Just when Xiao Jin thought she was about to be pierced through the heart, Chu Shao raised her sword and severed the throats of the guards. The remaining guards turned pale and knelt on the ground. Chu Shao, holding her blood-stained hands, squatted in front of Xiao Jin, gazing at her as if she were a deity, staring at her for a long time. Then, she dropped the blood-stained sword and said in a trembling voice, “Don’t leave me.” •••• Highlight Warning!! *Although this novel is labeled as lighthearted, some content is not particularly lighthearted.* •••• [Reading Instructions] 1.
