On a pouring, rainy night, with the candlelight dim, Du Yuzhi was dazed with desire and had an illicit encounter with a palace guard.
When she sobered up, she regretted it somewhat, but also felt a certain satisfaction.
In a hazy dream, Du Yuzhi discovered that she had transmigrated into a novel.
The husband she had carefully chosen was the second male lead in the book. He was deeply in love with the heroine and even kept a stand-in by his side. He had married Du Yuzhi merely as a temporary measure, and in the end he destroyed the entire Du family.

After that night, Du Yuzhi decided she would not enter the palace again unless absolutely necessary. Unexpectedly, she ran into the guard once more.
Perhaps he had become attached to her after their one encounter. The guard relentlessly clung to her, and Du Yuzhi couldn't resist him. Thinking he was handsome, she decided she could at least take him on as a lover.
But in the blink of an eye, that guard became the high and mighty emperor.
Pei Che laughed. "Want to take it back? In your dreams!"

Lu Xiao thought that his feelings for Du Yuzhi were nothing but an act. He never expected to get so deeply drawn into the role. He couldn't bear to see her cry or get hurt, and wanted to be her husband for the rest of his life. Just as he took back his heart and decided to be good to her alone, he spent a night sitting in her room, waiting for her, only to be met with her betrayal.
Seeing her flushed and hazy with passion, traces of another man left on her body, her eyes, usually full of laughter, now looking at him coldly, Lu Xiao felt he was going insane...
