Just after transmigrating into a melodramatic angst novel, overworked screenwriter Su Ruanruan is handed a cannon-fodder role destined to die early, starting with being drugged.
To stay alive, she binds herself to a Sweet Romance System and corners Huo Siyan, the cold-blooded, tyrannical business world's king of hell, backing him against a wall as she sobs sweetly, "Honey, save me. It hurts so much..."
She thought she'd have to risk her life to act the part. Who could have guessed this man would take down trending topics, crush his rivals, and carry her into a Maybach in front of everyone, sending her affection score soaring off the charts!
Until one late night, the cool, distinguished man holds her captive in his arms, his eyes bloodshot as he murmurs against her ear, "You betrayed me in your past life. Are you trying to kill me in a different way this time? Su Ruanruan, take my life, just don't run away again."
Su Ruanruan turns to stone on the spot. Help! The villainous husband she's trying to win over was reborn?!
Even more terrifying, the force of plot correction that's been driving her to her death is quietly closing in...
So she puts on a show, sweet-talks him, acts cute, and pulls out every trick in the book. But the rumored cold-blooded big shot gradually starts acting out of character: he takes down trending topics, overhauls the PR department, and declares his claim on her in front of everyone, doting on her like a princess.
Until one late night, he confesses with red-rimmed eyes, "You betrayed me in your past life. This time, I'll wait for you."
Only then does she realize her villainous husband has been reborn!
And beneath the sweet waters, a mysterious hand determined to force the plot back into place is emerging.
She wants to live, he wants to love, but fate insists they follow the script.
