[A carefree beauty × a gentle, noble man]
[The male lead silently protects her and wins her heart; the second male lead chases his wife only after losing her]
By accident, Chu Qinghuan transmigrates into the half-finished outline of a novel, becoming the devoted doormat of its male lead, He Shiyue, and ultimately falling off a towering cliff for him.
Faced with such a ridiculously melodramatic fate, Chu Qinghuan cries, “I’m going to defy fate and change my destiny!”
But then she learns she has to follow the existing plot to the end, or she’ll vanish into nothing and die!
So Chu Qinghuan dutifully becomes a lovesick doormat.
He Shiyue’s mother loves money, so Chu Qinghuan goes to great lengths to find priceless treasures to give her.
He Shiyue takes a fancy to the star courtesan at Qinxiang House, so Chu Qinghuan carefully buys out her contract to win his favor.
When He Shiyue is injured, she even travels to the Southern Border herself, risking half her life to obtain an icy snow lotus to heal him.
After He Shiyue gets engaged, she even shamelessly shows up at his door to offer to become his concubine.
For He Shiyue, she turns herself into a laughingstock across the entire capital.
He Shiyue holds nothing but contempt for a woman who throws herself at him like this.
If Chu Qinghuan weren’t pretty and the daughter of a duke, he would hardly spare her a glance.
But when Chu Qinghuan leaps off a cliff to save him, He Shiyue spits out a mouthful of blood and shuts his heart to love forever.
When Chu Qinghuan, whose fate remains unknown, appears before him again, He Shiyue finally realizes he has long since loved her to the depths of his soul.
“Huan’er, come back to me. I’ll make you my wife!”
Chu Qinghuan rolls her eyes at the presumptuous He Shiyue.
“If the plot hadn’t forced me to, why would I have been stupid enough to fall for you?”
