A mission gone wrong and a villain in need of serious therapy await in this heart-rending drama—finally available in English!
When medical student Song Qingshi dies and wakes up in a historical fantasy novel, he’s tasked with rescuing the tragic protagonist from a life of misery. There’s just one problem—he has no idea who the protagonist is.
Instead of saving the hero, Song Qingshi accidentally rescues Yue Wuhuan, an enslaved man renowned for his striking beauty and trained in the art of seduction. Now determined to help his traumatized new patient heal, Song Qingshi offers everything he can: Medicine, therapy, emotional support, even a shared bed—strictly for his patient’s well-being, of course.
But Yue Wuhuan wants more than healing. He wants revenge. And most of all, he wants Song Qingshi all to himself.
As enemies close in—and even heaven itself turns against them—Song Qingshi isn’t trying to change the story. He’s just trying to save the one person who needs him most.
Mistakenly Saving the Villain Vol. 1 is scheduled for release on November 25, 2025. Preorders are available from several major retailers:
