A modern social animal stayed up late to read a bloody house fight novel, and his heart attack turned into the cannon fodder concubine Gu Wan in the book. The original owner had a miserable fate. He would be poisoned and disfigured by his stepsister Su Wan, framed step by step by his reborn cousin Lin Yan, and finally end up tragically dying from a glass of poisoned wine.
After waking up, Gu Wan unexpectedly awakened the ability to read minds and could see the true thoughts of others floating above their heads like a barrage. As soon as he woke up, he saw through Su Wan's disfigurement and Lin Yan's harm plan. Relying on her mind-reading skills, she repeatedly dismantled the two plots to frame her, and worked every step of the way in the Gu family's backyard to protect her cowardly biological mother, Wang.
In the process, Gu Wan met Xiao Jingheng, the prince of Zhenbei Hou, and the two reached a cooperation to investigate the old case of Xiao Jingheng's mother's mysterious death in the Gu family. She deals with family disputes and court forces, confronts the reborn Lin Yan who is bent on seizing power, the hypocritical and vicious Su Wan, and is wary of the many murderous intentions of the concubines in the harem.
After the confrontation at the palace banquet and the overturned verdict in the court, all the old blood debts were settled one by one. When all the crises were settled and the mind-reading talent quietly faded away, Gu Wan no longer relied on supernatural powers, but relied on her own wisdom to gain a foothold, and finally married Xiao Jingheng, breaking away from the fate of cannon fodder and starting a new life of her own.
