Shen Zhiyi transmigrates into a book as a vicious supporting female character with congenital heart disease and frail health, destined to die within three chapters.
To stay alive, she turns over a new leaf and offers her allegiance to the male lead: “Lu Yanqing, I’ve changed my ways. From now on, I’ll work like a beast of burden for you!”
Lu Yanqing watches coldly, waiting for her to show her true colors.
Later
Shen Zhiyi catches a cold, and Lu Yanqing spends the entire night watching over her, eyes red as if she’s terminally ill.
Shen Zhiyi eats one extra bite of ice cream, and Lu Yanqing confiscates every dessert in the fridge, acting like a complete maniac.
Shen Zhiyi casually says, “Maybe we should break off our engagement,” and Lu Yanqing completely loses it.
He holds her locked in his arms, his voice trembling and his eyes red:
“Zhiyi, please take pity on me.”
“Don’t leave me.”
“If you die, I’ll make everyone else join you in the grave.”
Shen Zhiyi: ???
Wait, I’m just going downstairs to buy milk tea. What kind of epic tragedy are you imagining???
Only later does Shen Zhiyi understand: she thought she was saving a poor little thing, never realizing that she had provoked a rabid dog.
And not just any rabid dog, but one that locks even itself up when it goes berserk.
