Modern foodie Wen Jiaojiao accidentally slipped into the book while staying up late to read an ancient sadistic novel, and became a sickly female supporting character with the same name and surname in the book, who obsessed over the male protagonist Xiao Jue but could not survive more than three chapters. Knowing the plot well, she only wanted to stay away from the iceberg general Xiao Jue and have a stable life, but she was hit by an imperial edict and became Xiao Jue's wife.
After marriage, Wen Jiaojiao tried to adapt to her illness and used her foodie attributes to unlock various ancient delicacies, while carefully maintaining the distance of her "contract marriage". However, as she got along with Xiao Jue, she gradually discovered that the rumored cold general was not as written in the book - he would make an exception to help her when she had an asthma attack, would quietly protect her when she was in trouble, and would keep the twisted peace charm she drew close to her body.
And Xiao Jue was also moved by this young wife who was completely different from the "vicious and obsessive" in the rumors: she was gluttonous but optimistic, she seemed timid but was unusually sober at critical moments, and used unique methods to help him resolve crises time and time again. When undercurrents surged in the court and a conspiracy pointed at the two of them, they originally had their own thoughts, but gradually dropped their guard and transformed from a contracted couple into a true ally and confidant. As they worked together to break the situation, they completely rewrote the script of the "short-lived female partner" and created a warm love that goes both ways.
