A modern executive transmigrates into a book as a cannon-fodder female supporting character. Fine, she can live with being a supporting character! Except the entire General's household has died in battle, leaving her as the sole orphan. Without her parents' protection, the cannon-fodder is doomed. She keeps causing trouble every day and is already one step away from getting herself killed.

Chen Yi'an, the female executive who already knows how her story ends, wakes up and makes her first move: she breaks off her engagement to the male lead, the Crown Prince, and cuts ties with the leads for good. If she can't afford to cross them, she can at least stay out of their way, right?

But she can only avoid them for so long. She still needs to find someone who can protect her, so she decides to latch onto the future prime minister. That way, even after the male and female leads become Emperor and Empress, she won't end up dying a gruesome death because of all the trouble she caused in the past.

And so Chen Yi'an begins her long campaign to win her future husband over.

But on his path to revenge, a woman named Chen Yi'an appeared.

Faced with this radiant, captivating woman, he found her gradually breaking through his defenses.
