Chapter 1: The Arrogant and Overbearing Eldest Daughter of the Marquis's Mansion × The High-Ranking and Powerful Childless Regent



Gu Chaoxi was originally a typical 007 office worker who died suddenly due to overwork.

Her diligent and conscientious work ethic caught the eye of the Time and Space Administration, and thus, after her death, she became a new employee of the Administration.

At this point, the system assigned to her dutifully introduced her to her new job.

"Host, the bureau has assigned you to the Childbirth Department. As the name suggests, your mission is to travel to different worlds and give birth to children for the male protagonist/villain/second male lead who is unable to have children, thus changing their childless fate."

Gu Chaoxi asked sincerely, "They are infertile, so what can I possibly produce on my own?"

"Others might not be able to do it, but we have items. We'll earn points for each world's mission we complete, and those points can be used to buy items."

"Once you have accumulated enough points, you can retire from the Time and Space Administration and choose a world to be reborn in. You can choose any identity, and the Time and Space Administration will also prepare a generous retirement gift package."

It has to be said that this offer is very tempting.

When she was alive, she worked from morning till night, on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week, all for money. If completing the mission could lead to rebirth and the freedom to choose her identity, why wouldn't she do it?

Let's have children then.

Gu Chaoxi nodded in agreement, "What kind of props are needed?"

The next second, a light screen appeared in front of Gu Chaoxi, displaying many medicines in small porcelain bottles with labels on them. The system then explained:

"Our main task is to have children, so of course we need all sorts of fertility pills."

"Fertility pills, will result in having a boy. 100 points per pill."

"Girl-Born Pill, will result in having a girl after use, 100 points per pill."

"Twin Pill, after use, you will have twins, gender is random, 200 points per pill."

"Dragon and Phoenix Pills, after use, will result in twins, a boy and a girl, 200 points per pill."

"Of course, in order to help the host complete the mission, the system also provides various props, such as aphrodisiac powder, sleeping potion, etc. The number of props will gradually increase as the host completes the mission world."

Gu Chaoxi stared at the 0 points displayed in the upper right corner of the screen and fell silent.

"Don't worry, host. Since you're a newbie, the bureau has prepared a newbie gift pack for you."

A gift box appeared in the middle of the screen. Gu Chaoxi clicked on it, and the items inside were laid out in front of her one by one: 2 pills for having a son, 2 pills for having a daughter, 2 twin pills, 1 love potion, 1 beauty pill, 1 body shaping pill, 1 potion for forgetting love, 1 painless childbirth pill, and 1 repair pill.

Everything else is easy to understand, except for one thing.

Gu Chaoxi asked, "What is 'Soul-Stealing Powder'?"

"Oh~ it's aphrodisiac, a convenient medicine for making love~." The system's soft voice was tinged with shyness.

Gu Chaoxi understood and clicked the "accept" button.

"Let's go to the mission world."

The system was a little dumbfounded. "So fast? Shouldn't you prepare yourself mentally, host?"

Gu Chaoxi glanced at the adorable, lop-eared rabbit-shaped system on the screen and said calmly, "Workers should always be ready to finish their work and retire sooner."

The Lop-eared Rabbit System: "Okay."

The system concluded with a reminder: "To avoid disrupting your character's established persona, you will be influenced by some of the original owner's personality traits and emotions after transmigrating."

Gu Chaoxi nodded to indicate that she understood.

...

When Gu Chaoxi woke up, she found herself lying in an antique-style room, her body radiating an indescribable heat, as if she were being roasted on a fire, desperately needing something.

Even if you've never eaten pork, you've seen pigs run. Gu Chaoxi immediately realized what was wrong with her.

"Xi'er, I really like you. Can I hug you?" A slender, handsome young man rushed towards Gu Chaoxi, panting heavily.

"Get out of my way!" Gu Chaoxi kicked the man away.

The man persisted and pounced again, but Gu Chaoxi picked up a hard pillow from the bed and knocked him unconscious.

Enduring the heat and unbearable discomfort, Gu Chaoxi climbed out of bed, gritting her teeth, "Who drugged me? I'll skin her alive!"

"Host, you're the one who administered the drug yourself," the system explained. "I'll send you the plot details right now."

The next moment, the plot of this world appeared in Gu Chaoxi's mind.

The body she inhabited belonged to the eldest daughter of a marquis's family. She was usually arrogant and domineering, and loved to bully her half-sister, Gu Ruiyun. Although Gu Ruiyun was a half-sister, she was no pushover either. Relying on her marquis father's favoritism, she often caused trouble for the original owner of this body.

The reason for the drugging was that the emperor was going to hold a selection of concubines. The original owner thought that she would definitely win the emperor's favor if she entered the palace with her looks. However, she was already engaged, and her family planned to arrange for her half-sister Gu Ruiyun to enter the palace.

So, when her fiancé came to visit, she drugged him and her half-sister, making it so that she was the only one who could enter the palace.

But Gu Ruiyun couldn't possibly be completely naive. She already knew about the original owner's plan and bribed the original owner's maid, while the original owner herself drank the tea laced with drugs.

It's like lifting a rock only to drop it on one's own foot.

As her body grew hotter, Gu Chaoxi used her remaining rationality to figure out her current situation.

In the original storyline, Gu Ruiyun not only retaliated by putting the drug in Gu Chaoxi's tea, but also arranged for someone to catch them in the act, using methods even more ruthless than Gu Ruiyun's.

On this very day, she unexpectedly saved the Regent, who was being chased and had taken refuge in the woodshed of the Marquis's mansion.

Afterwards, Gu Ruiyun entered the palace and won the emperor's favor with her outstanding appearance and gentle understanding. In addition, the second male lead, the regent, secretly helped her all the way. From then on, Gu Ruiyun rose through the ranks in the harem as if she had a cheat code, and eventually became the empress.
