After transmigrating into a book as a cannon-fodder character, Ji Jinhe is brought back to the sect by her senior sister and bound to a matchmaking System. It orders her to bring together the novel's heroine and the female rival, whose relationship is a tragic tale of hatred and passion. Ji Jinhe works herself to the bone, tying their strings together.
First, she approaches Jiang Jinyue. “A Yue, Senior Sister glanced at you three times more than usual during sword practice today. Do you know why? She's worried that you've only just recovered and might overdo it. She's all bark and no bite, and she's concerned about you.”
Jiang Jinyue says, “Oh,” and clings to her arm. “But I think Senior Sister looks at you more often.”
Ji Jinhe says, “That's because she's checking up on me. It's different.”
Next, she smooths things over with Li Suwei. “Senior Sister, A Yue made those pastries today. She pestered me to teach her all afternoon. She said you worked so hard bringing her medicine, but she's shy, so she asked me to bring them over. If you like them, I'll have her bring them to you herself next time.”
Li Suwei gives her a look. “She asked you to bring them, and you did?”
Ji Jinhe says, “I'm a helpful person.”
Li Suwei says, “You certainly take a keen interest in her affairs.”
Ji Jinhe says, “I just want the two of you to be happy together.”
Li Suwei says, “Mm. Don't wear yourself out. Leave any work you can't finish.”
Ji Jinhe is touched, but also feels that something is off.
Later, Jiang Jinyue climbs through her window at night and asks, “A He, why do you keep pushing me toward Senior Sister?”
Ji Jinhe jumps. “Pushing you? I'm finding you someone to rely on.”
Jiang Jinyue looks at her, her eyelashes trembling gently in the moonlight. “I don't want someone to rely on. I only want to be by your side.”
Ji Jinhe's heart skips a beat.
Later still, Li Suwei corners her too, right in the corridor.
“Why have you gone to such lengths to put Jiang Jinyue by my side?”
Ji Jinhe blurts out, “You two are perfect for each other. The cool senior sister and the stubborn junior sister. It's lovely.”
Li Suwei falls silent for a moment, then says, “Did you ever ask whether I wanted that?”
Ji Jinhe freezes.
She suddenly realizes she may have tied the string around herself instead. Ji Jinhe crouches down between them and covers her face.
System, can I restart this mission?
A cold-faced senior sister dropped from the heavens, and a childhood friend who acts sweet and innocent. How am I supposed to choose?
