Staying Alive Comes First, So I Cling to the Male Lead

[Transmigrating into a Script + No System + Both Leads' First Love + Married First, Love Later + Growth-Oriented Heroine + Career-Minded, Self-Deluding Hero]

[Laid-Back, Kind Actress x Patient, Scheming Heir]

Chu Yiyi, an obscure actress, unexpectedly transmigrates into the role she played: Chu Yi, daughter of the great general who guards the nation in the Great Ling Dynasty. She's also a cannon-fodder supporting character who won't survive five episodes.

This beautiful, strong, tragic supporting character turns out to be nothing more than a stepping stone for the original leads' romance.

She wakes up at night, and the next day she's bestowed in marriage.

With no golden finger or System to help her, all she can do is rely on her memory of the script and her professional dedication as an actress to play Chu Yi well, scraping by under the scheming male lead's watchful eye.

But why isn't the plot following the script at all? She was supposed to fall off a cliff and die long ago, yet somehow she survives against all odds?

She's alive, sure, but how is she supposed to know what happens next?

So Chu Yiyi continues to tread carefully, trying to get by under the male lead's thumb.

As they spend day after day together, she begins to realize that he's not nearly as cruel and ruthless as she'd imagined...

At first, Su Jue is blinded by hatred. Whenever he closes his eyes, he sees his family being humiliated and brutally murdered by men sent by the emperor of the Great Ling Dynasty.

Living under someone else's roof, he navigates one perilous step after another, all to restore Great Su. He is even willing to give his life for it.

Then he meets her, and it's as if a pair of hands pulls him out of hell and into the light.

Badly wounded, with the snow stained red, he thinks of her silly, stubborn face as he closes his eyes.

He's become greedy. He wants both the world and her.

He pulls her tightly into his arms. “No matter where you are, I'll find you!”
