Jingshu transmigrated into a novel as the male lead's childhood friend. In the end, she would do something wrong, try and fail to drug the male lead, and be sent by him to the ancestral temple, where she would spend the rest of her life with only a lamp and the Buddha for company.
Jingshu has to complete her tasks as instructed, or she will die.
Compared to being sick, spending her life with only a lamp and the Buddha for company is a pretty good outcome.
So Jingshu spends all day hovering around the cold and aloof male lead, doing everything she can to get close to him.
The only thing that troubles Jingshu is that the normally aloof, chaste male lead seems rather troubled, yet never pushes her away. He really lets her kiss him, hug him, and sit in his lap.
...What on earth is going on?
...Should she follow the plot and try drugging him?
