Su Jin woke to find herself lying on a pearwood bed. She realized she had transmigrated into a book, specifically the novel The Phoenix Queen, which she had read just the day before.
Li Baiyun was the frail boy Su Jin had found in the snow. In the original story, after Su Jin rescued him and brought him home, she treated him well. Later, she met the original male lead and fell in love at first sight, but her feelings went unreturned. She grew increasingly gloomy and began to take pleasure in tormenting others. Li Baiyun also became more and more obsessive. After they married, he brought down the Su family and had Su Jin mutilated into a human stump. Li Baiyun said, “This way, you can stay by my side forever.”
“Since you chose to pull me out of the abyss, you won't be able to escape me.”
Li Baiyun had once thought life was bleak and meaningless. Other than avenging his family, he had nothing to look forward to.
Then he met his light. Even if she had warmed him only for a moment, he would keep her by his side forever. To save her own life, Su Jin began desperately trying to please Li Baiyun. But why was the story going off track? “You hit me? Does your hand hurt?” “You smell so good. Hit me again.”
