After staying up all night and dying suddenly, Lin Xiaoxiao transmigrated into an old-school melodrama novel as a cannon-fodder character with the same name, destined to be beaten to death from the start. In a desperate situation, she thought fast, clung to the Crown Prince's leg, and yelled, “Dad!” Her cry stunned everyone, and even Prince Jing, Xiao Heng, who was watching from the sidelines, thought she was “interesting.” She narrowly escaped death, only to be banished to a supposedly “haunted” estate.
At the estate, she turned her days in exile into a merry routine: teaching chickens to dance, arguing with trees, making stinky tofu, and feeding the “strange neighbor” next door, Xiao Heng. During a crisis, Xiao Heng displayed his thunderous power, and Lin Xiaoxiao realized she had found a “powerful backer.”
Forced to return to the capital, Lin Xiaoxiao clung to him in her own peculiar ways: feeding him delicious food, explaining palace intrigue, and serving as a source of entertainment. Xiao Heng went from being annoyed to gradually getting used to her, and even relying on her. When faced with mockery from noblewomen, schemes by a fake innocent, and the Crown Prince's hostility, she fought back with absurd antics and humiliated her opponents. She also joined forces with Xiao Heng to turn political machinations into a spectacle for everyone to gossip about, while making a great success of her own career.
In the end, Lin Xiaoxiao used her absurd antics as a weapon against the villains, tore up her cannon-fodder script, and became everyone's darling, a career-minded woman, and a savior. She even turned the aloof prince into a doting husband.
