Pang Wanxue transmigrated into a book as a background character. Delighted to be left alone, she stayed out of the protagonists' and supporting characters' affairs, spending her days playing with cats and dogs and living freely.
Then one day, a System came looking for her. In a haughty tone, it told Pang Wanxue, "Hey, here's your mission: make Gao Chenyue your husband."
Pang Wanxue stared at the System in bewilderment and pointed to herself in disbelief. "What is my status right now?" The System gave her a sidelong glance. "A commoner."
Pang Wanxue asked, "And what is Gao Chenyue's status?" The System impatiently replied, "A member of the imperial family."
Pang Wanxue thought the System was being utterly ridiculous. She couldn't believe it, and found the whole idea absurd. Who was Gao Chenyue? The aloof beauty who stood high above everyone in the book. His biological elder brother was a favored imperial consort, and the Gao family was a distinguished scholarly clan whose descendants were all outstanding.
Gao Chenyue was also exceptionally learned, a respected teacher to everyone at Wanlin Academy. Yet the System said proudly, "Don't worry. I'm here."
Pang Wanxue had no intention of doing the mission. But when she met Gao Chenyue for the first time, she saw his cool, refined bearing and tall, slender figure, like bamboo shadows beneath the moon. His features were delicate, his manner reserved and distant. How could every little thing about someone suit her so perfectly? There was only one thought in Pang Wanxue's mind: "He's going to be my husband."
For the first twenty years of his life, Gao Chenyue had been cool and untouched by desire. The Gao family was a scholarly clan that prized self-discipline and propriety. Even when he slept, Gao Chenyue kept the highest button on his collar fastened to maintain his composure.
Then one day, he was bound to an object called a System, which kept issuing absurd missions: "Trigger by throwing yourself into someone's arms," "Trigger by looking heartbreakingly pitiful," "Trigger by aphrodisiac."
When these absurd events were triggered, he discovered that one person could save him: a student at the academy, low in status but bold and passionate, carefree and unrestrained, with a face as flawless as an immortal's.
When those bright eyes turned toward him and their owner said with conviction, "I love you," Gao Chenyue's heart stirred almost imperceptibly.
Later, Gao Chenyue lay with his clothes in disarray, brows slightly furrowed, while Pang Wanxue leaned over him, biting his fair neck and licking his slightly swollen red lips. Her bright eyes looked down at him, filled with excitement and desire. Seeing Gao Chenyue's normally cool face stirred with passion and hearing his helpless moans, Pang Wanxue's gaze darkened. Only she could see Gao Chenyue like this.
