Song Jingrong, a top student in her final year at Hengshui No. 1 High School, works herself to death on the eve of the college entrance exam. When she wakes, she has transmigrated into Dream of the Red Chamber. The System tells her: win over Jia Baoyu and reach 100% sincerity, or she'll never be able to return.
Armed with stunning beauty and a wealth of knowledge, she storms into the Rongguo Mansion, where Jia Baoyu promptly falls in love with her at first sight. But just as she's getting ready to show what she can do, she discovers that in this world, Song Jingrong's grandfather looks exactly like her own late grandfather. Song Jingrong is devastated on the spot. She doesn't want to return to reality anymore; she wants to stay in this place where she has a “grandfather.”
So she gives up trying altogether, spending her days bantering with Baoyu, composing poems with Daiyu, and playing chess with Baochai. She has a better time than anyone. She can't even be bothered when Jia Baoyu's affection level soars to 90%.
Then the System threatens her in an icy voice: her grandmother in the real world is near death. If she doesn't complete the mission, she'll never see her one last time. Forced to take the mission seriously, Song Jingrong succeeds three months later and marries Jia Baoyu.
On their wedding night, however, the System goes back on its word and forces her to remain in the world of Dream of the Red Chamber forever. Song Jingrong gives a cold laugh and swallows the poison she prepared long ago. If they all want her to stay, then she'll make sure she goes back.
Her wedding gown blazing like fire, she collapses amid the red candles. Outside the real-world exam hall, an ambulance siren wails. At last, the girl slumped over her desk opens her eyes.
