Maisui was a modern woman and fiction writer who championed independence and self-reliance. After years of staying up late, she unexpectedly died and transmigrated into a book.
Transmigrating was one thing, but the character she had become was deeply unlikable: a gluttonous, slovenly, obese supporting character in the period novel she had just started writing.
She had only herself to blame. Maisui regretted creating such a character as she steeled herself to remake “herself” despite the revulsion.
She knew the fat woman had schemed her way into marrying the male lead, but he was devoted to the heroine and had never touched her, remaining chaste for the heroine all along.
Only after the fat woman later died of an illness did the male and female leads weather their trials and finally get together.
Maisui didn’t want to ruin their happy ending, but she also didn’t want her cumbersome body to cut her life short.
But when she went to discuss a divorce with the male lead she had worked so hard to win for herself, his eyes turned red.
“Didn’t you say I could only ever be yours? Do you not want me anymore?”
Maisui panicked. They had agreed to divorce ages ago, so why was he...?
