The moment Chu Yan transmigrates into a book, she lands in a boys' school bathroom, where the original host is taking a shower. She freezes in horror.
The System tells her she must win over the male lead, Xing Mo, who has the novel's protagonist's luck. If she fails, she'll suffer the original host's fate: get exposed, humiliated by the entire school, abandoned by the Shi family, and eventually die in despair.
Chu Yan scoffs. “Win over a jerk? Dream on!”
She immediately picks a new target: Duan Mu, the sunny, sweet guy everyone at school likes, and Xing Mo's friend. She'll win him over just to spite Xing Mo!
But Duan Mu seems so gentle and easygoing that she thinks he'll be a beginner-level challenge. So why is the second male lead even harder to deal with than the main one?
Just as she's carefully getting him to open up to her, she notices that the male lead, who used to find fault with her at every turn and make her life difficult every day, now looks at her with unmistakable longing.
One is the male lead, who'll complete her mission if she simply throws herself into his arms. The other is the target she chose herself. What should she do?
On the surface, she's the Shi family's frail adopted son, dressed up to please the powerful, wearing a wig and a chest binder as she carefully maintains her disguise.
In private, she dresses as a woman again, takes side jobs to earn money, lives for herself, and lays the groundwork to escape the Shi family.
Two heirs from powerful families set their sights on her at once: one is haughty, stubborn, and fiercely possessive; the other is gentle, cunning, and harboring hidden feelings.
When her biggest secret can no longer be kept, the two equally matched men descend into a jealous love triangle. At her wit's end, she vents to an online friend, asking which one she should choose.
Then the online friend she has always thought of as her “bestie” suddenly appears and corners her against the wall. “Choose me.”
Chu Yan is stunned. “Oh my god, my online friend is him!”
