A dream.
Song Chaoyao opens her eyes on a rainy night, her mind in chaos. Her half-sister has been oppressing her, and the Second Prince has broken off their engagement!
This time, she has gained dreams that let her foresee the future. She discovers that she is the vicious second female lead in someone else’s story, destined to die a gruesome death. She refuses to accept that fate. Awakening in an instant, Song Chaoyao resolves to take charge of her own life and become its leading lady. From then on, she sets out to crush her enemies with face-slapping victories and rise higher with every step.
Everyone says the Song family’s legitimate daughter has gone mad. She tears up the storybook and kicks over the will of Heaven, never expecting to meet Bai Yu, a trusted aide to the Crown Prince. He seems like no ordinary man, so Song Chaoyao immediately plots to get close to him. But after achieving her goal, she tries to run, only to find she can’t get away.\\\\\\\"
Then, by a twist of fate, she becomes entangled in several baffling cases. As she solves them one by one, she uncovers the mystery of her birth, makes friends, and gradually falls in love.
*The refined strategist Bai, who hides a dark side: “You made the first move. And now you want to run?”
*Behind the nine layers of gauze curtains in the Golden Throne Hall, someone chuckles: “I’ve decided to play this game of regicide…”
*The contrast between how they act before falling in love and after confessing is off the charts.
