   The female lead had almost no will to live. She died from a tormenting illness and then transmigrated into a book as a supporting female character suffering from the same illness as in her previous life. She gave up, thinking that since it was so painful, she might as well die and stop causing him trouble. After her suicide attempt, she was discovered by the male lead's men and taken to the hospital. The male lead was furious; by then, he had already fallen for her. The female lead had practically no will to live. She took the medicine the doctor gave her in front of them, and after they left, she went to the toilet and vomited—she was in so much pain. Later, the male lead, who loved her deeply, begged her not to give up, to have more attachment to the world and more love for him.
