Bricklayer × dazzling, high-maintenance beauty|She awakens and plans to flee × he chases her by force|Both reborn · He pursues her through hell and high water|The male lead is hopelessly in love

[The heroine awakens] Zhou Ning awakens in the middle of an intensely intimate moment, then discovers she's living inside a book and is the most miserable cannon fodder in it.

She causes endless trouble until everyone turns against her. In the end, the man by her side has her committed to a mental hospital, and she's hit by a car and killed as soon as she's discharged.

She looks up at the man who is still moving above her.

The book says this is the man who personally ruined her life.

Fine.

She'll save money, run away, ditch her family of bloodsuckers, and get rid of her bizarre relatives, one thing at a time.

She starts acting up worse than ever, hoping the man will be the one to ask for a breakup and give her a sliver of hope for survival.

But something about the plot seems off.

[The male lead is reborn] Qin Yi has only one goal in his new life: never lose Zhou Ning again.

So he's willing to dress like a construction worker and squeeze with her into the shabbiest rental apartment, letting her make trouble, throw tantrums, and secretly plan her escape.

She doesn't know he's already returned to the Qin family.

She has no idea that he's already laid a net across every corner of the city for her.

She books a ticket; he changes the fingerprint lock.

She hides her passport; he hid his even earlier.

She thinks she's escaping fate, but every step she takes just circles back into his arms.

When she grips the gold-embossed Qin Corporation access card, chilled to the bone, he pulls her into his arms and says in a low, obsessive voice:

“Baby, why did you stop running?”

“In that case, baby, let's get some more exercise, so you won't be able to run away.”
