Su Ruan unexpectedly transmigrates into a melodramatic CEO romance novel she had just complained about, becoming the scheming second female lead, whose life is full of cheat-like advantages but who is fated to die miserably. To change her ending and steal both the wealth and the male lead, she uses her knowledge of the entire plot to plan her every move, determined to take every place belonging to the heroine, Xia Zhiyu.
However, she overlooks one crucial variable: Xia Zhiyu is no naive, helpless girl.
A native of the book's world, Xia Zhiyu may lack a golden finger that lets her see the future, but she is skilled at reading people and plotting, with a keen instinct for anything that feels out of place in the story.
When a prophet's schemes meet a strategist's counterplay, an exhilarating battle of wits begins. Su Ruan thinks she's following the script, but in truth, every step lands her in a trap Xia Zhiyu has carefully laid. In the end, the second female lead loses her halo and is defeated by the heroine instead. Xia Zhiyu not only secures her place as the heroine, but also lives a far more dazzling life than the one in the original story.
