Overworked office drone Lin Yuan died from exhaustion and opened her eyes inside a melodramatic household-intrigue novel. She had become the same-named, shamelessly troublesome, male-lead-obsessed, brainless, wicked supporting woman who ultimately gets killed by the heroine and hero working together.

Lin Yuan: ...I'm tired. Let's just destroy everything already.
The heroine, who once saw her as a thorn in her side, actually took the initiative to propose an alliance.
Even the story's biggest villain, the cold and ruthless Regent with power over the court, had begun looking at her strangely.
One day, the Regent cornered her against a wall and said in a low voice, "I hear you've been telling everyone that I have a secret crush on you?"
Lin Yuan trembled. "Y-Your Highness, those are just rumors! I... I only wanted to give up and coast!"
The Regent chuckled softly and bent to whisper in her ear, "No matter. I can make the rumors come true."
Lin Yuan: Σ(っ °Д °;)っ Wait, that's not how the script goes! I just want to coast, not be spoiled rotten by some big shot!
After spending her last life working herself to the bone, all she wants this time is to be a lazy fish and give up completely!
