Jiang Nuan died suddenly at four thirty in the morning while on her way to take the graduate school entrance exam.
When she woke up, she discovered she had become the tragic heroine of a mindless short drama she used to watch when she wanted to switch off her brain.
In the drama, the heroine spent her entire life as the male lead's devoted wife. Her research became his, and papers she wrote were published under his name.
Every bouquet and round of applause he received came from the heroine's hard work behind the scenes.
The original heroine even bore him six sons. She worked herself to the bone all her life, only for her sons to grow distant from her and look down on their stay-at-home mother, preferring their high-status father.
In their later years, her husband finally dropped his virtuous facade and revealed that he had another family.
By then, the heroine had also been diagnosed with terminal stomach cancer. Only at the very end of her life did she realize that her whole existence had been a joke.
After taking over the heroine's body, Jiang Nuan decided to stay away from the male lead, a walking disaster. Staying alive was what mattered!
