Shen Yin doesn't belong in this world. She transmigrated into a book after dying from straining too hard on the toilet, and the original owner of her body had already died.
As for the original owner, she was supposed to be the heroine, the eldest legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's residence, yet she lived a life worse than a cannon-fodder character's, a complete doormat.
At first, she was simply a little too soft-hearted and let everyone bully her. All her misfortunes began when the second female lead entered the General's residence. The wedding she'd waited so long for was stolen from her, her virtue was ruined, and everyone took turns trampling on her.
When Shen Yin transmigrated into the book, none of it had happened yet. She curled her lips into a smile. This game was about to get interesting.
When an old servant pushed her into the water, she paid the debt on the spot, kicking the servant in after her and declaring, “Anyone who tries to save her can stay down there too.”
Living someone else's life all over again, Shen Yin was like she had cheat codes enabled.
Xie Hengzhi told her to seduce the regent, Pei Heng, and she readily agreed. “Sure, I'll go.” Being the General's wife couldn't compare to being The Outcast, second only to one and above all others.
But rumors said that Pei Heng, the man who held power in the Great Yi Dynasty, was prone to fits of rage and had a twisted temperament.
Shen Yin had already resigned herself to a lifetime as a neglected wife, enjoying the good life with a husband who left her alone and plenty of money.
Only later did she realize something was off. Why did Pei Heng find an excuse every single day to spend time alone with her?
As their feelings for each other grew, Xie Hengzhi seemed to go mad, insisting on taking her back to the General's residence.
“Yin'er, let's go back. I won't push you away again.” Shen Yin thought, What's wrong with him? She's perfectly happy where she is. Why go back and be a servant?
Second, she seemed to have supernatural abilities. Sometimes she could hear other people's thoughts, and sometimes she could see the date of their death above their heads.
At first, no one believed her. But everything she said eventually came true...
