In her previous life, Lin Qingmu was so desperate to marry her childhood friend, the young Marquis Qian Yu, that she used a love bug to make herself pregnant and force his hand. In the end, she met a tragic death.
Given another chance at life, Lin Qingmu decides to stop trying so hard. Staying alive comes first. She latches onto the prince of the enemy kingdom, fakes her death, and flees there just to avoid getting involved with the young Marquis.
Who could have guessed she’d run into a coffin on the road? She was about to see which ill-starred fool was blocking her way when, in a flash, she spotted the young Marquis. She hastily swallowed an insult and quietly shut her mouth.
At last, she reaches the enemy kingdom and goes to see the Lantern Festival, something she’s never experienced before. Someone blocks her way again. She turns around and sees the young Marquis once more. She hastily swallows a question and silently walks away.
Later, while repaying the prince’s kindness by trying to seduce the crown prince at a banquet, someone blocks her way yet again. She looks up and, sure enough, it’s the young Marquis.
Again and again! Why can’t she ever avoid him? Fine, she won’t run anymore. She’ll come clean.
The next moment, she hears someone call him the heir. Wait, the heir? The heir... the heir?!
Fine, if she can’t hide from him or afford to provoke him, she’ll just pretend she doesn’t know him.

At the crown prince’s selection banquet, Qian Yu sees the woman he warned away show up again and is so angry he laughs.
She’s dressed appropriately, but every smile and gesture is aimed at seducing the crown prince. She even brings out the yin-yang pot she once used to put a love bug on Qian Yu, trying the same trick again!
After the banquet, the woman chosen by the crown prince vanishes without a trace. They search the entire residence, but find nothing.
In a side room, Qian Yu pins her between himself and the door, gripping her waist. His eyes redden as he grits out, “What? My love bug hasn’t even been cured, and you’re trying to put one on another man?”
