One day, she transmigrates into a book and becomes Zhen Yinglian, whose life in the Dream of the Red Chamber is as precarious as a drifting duckweed.
To escape the tragic fate she suffers in the original story, she risks everything to flee her kidnappers. After enduring a life of hardship and wandering, she crosses paths with Lin Ruhai, the Imperial Commissioner of the Salt Administration, who comes to her rescue.
Grateful for his kindness, she resolutely follows Daiyu into the Grand View Garden after Lin Ruhai dies.
She has no interest in romance or wealth. Concealing her identity, she navigates the splendor of the great mansions to protect herself, watches the Jia family rise and fall with cool detachment, and safeguards Daiyu, who has no one else to rely on.
