Villainess Wants To Turn Over A New Leaf

by Chun-dao-han

Lin Feilu, or better known by her nickname—Green Tea Princess, was the best of all the scheming b*tches that the world had ever seen. She was the Oscar-winning actress among the masses with real life as her stage. Acting coy, slandering, feigning innocence, or playing the saint, she aced it all. Simply put, she was the proverbial villainess.

Ah, but retribution came way too early for this malicious personage and she died on her 27th birthday.

In death, Lin Feilu reflected on her career of 20 years as the Green Tea Princess. She was full of regret and remorse over the life she once led. She vowed, if there was an afterlife, she would atone for her misdeeds and be a good person.

She transmigrated into a five-year-old princess of the Dalin Dynasty. In the name of family, she had a sickly mother disfavoured by the emperor, a mentally challenged and daft older brother.

Her life was constantly in danger, with having little to eat and trying to stay warm.

The living environment was very harsh.

Lin Feilu, who wanted to be a good person: … You forced me! Sorry, I can only activate my unique skill.

Harem fight? Striving for favor? Climbing the ranks?

Apologies, but let me show you what it means to be slaughtered by a maxed out player.

Note: “Green Tea” is a woman who presents herself as innocent, sweet, and kind but is very scheming and calculative in reality.

I never thought I'd be this entertained reading about the social lives, relationships and day-to-day stuff of a bunch of fictional characters. This is a 3.5 but I gave it a 4 for sheer enjoyment value. I enjoyed this author's other work and decided to pick this up and was very pleasantly surprised.

This isn't like what is advertised on the summary page at all!!! I thought it was gonna be about a yandere (black-bellied) heroine being manipulative in a court setting, but it was nothing like that. This is a story about a clever, quick-witted, and lively girl who has quite a way with people, and a compassionate heart under her tough talk. She starts out saying she is 'manipulating' others but is actually making their lives better through her unconventional ideas and ways. She brings people together and brings warmth and fun into the lives of many lonely characters, and she is like the glue holding everyone together.

This is the epitome of fluff, comedy and feel-good, and it was sooo wholesome to read about how she cheers people up or makes their lives happier. Lots of comedic moments abound, and even 'evil' characters are converted to good. I grew to really care for all the side characters and rooted for their happiness too.

There is a romance but it is very slowburn and starts around ch85-ish of a 108 chapter book. The romance arc was imo rather rushed. I came for the romance but would rather have read more about the platonic relationships instead - that's where this story really shines.

There is not much of a plot, and the little plot there is is predictable, but I enjoyed this feel-good and absolutely wholesome story.

First half was good. But I can't keep reading a story where there's possible romance...and the female lead is still a toddler. Missy is 5-6 years old the entire time and we get hints of a male lead romance . I thought she'd grow....but nope. Still a child... Dropping this. But it was good while it lasted.

A very satisfying novel. Everything is just right.

This was much better than expected! The protagonist gets a second chance to become a decent caring person and she does very well at it. Her “Green Tea Bitch” previous life allowed her to predict the scheming actions in the palaces and counteract or prevent them. Protecting her loved ones allowed her to get the much needed love and caring from family that she lacked in her previous life (and probably forced her to become a supreme Green Tea.) she blossoms and finds life long love with the male lead. It’s heartwarming and an easy read if you can find the translations that are not sliced and diced into little chapters.

La parte in mezzo un po’ pesante e noiosa. Inoltre la vita a palazzo mi è sembrata un po’ troppo romanzata. Se un imperatore decidesse di castrarsi con un solo figlio maglio sarebbe una tragedia….. ma comunque carina come storia

This was entertaining, but everything in the plot is just a little too convenient. If you can suspense your disbelief,you will enjoy this story. I also felt the ML personality was kinda flat. Of course he's ML OP with sword etc, but we don't really get to know his likes and dislikes much.

Very interesting....late romance, but it's present...The fluff, the plot, cute children, palace intrigues and politics, smart heroine, black belly ml, siscons (doting older siblings) ....very well written relaxing novel. Gave me the vibe of ascending, do not disturb.

I'm so sad my memory of this got entangled w my former situationship help, because I was so so looking forward for this to be finished that I was letting it marinate, and when it was done I was so excited to read it that I wasn't paying much attention to him hence we drifted apart and then he started seeing other girls and yes kinda sucks but I do remember loving the cunning female lead
