Qin Zhizhi, daughter of the head of Piaomiao Sect, has a dream. In it, her unreliable father brings home a delicate young woman and tells her solemnly:
This is your half-sister. She grew up among the demon race and has suffered greatly. Treat her well, Zhizhi.
Qin Xiaoxiao is gentle, charming, and beautiful. She soon wins the affection of the entire Piaomiao Sect, including senior disciple Fu Changyuan, who was betrothed to Qin Zhizhi since childhood and is especially protective of Qin Xiaoxiao.
Jealous and spoiled, Qin Zhizhi accidentally destroys Qin Xiaoxiao's life-bound magical treasure, but Qin Xiaoxiao remains understanding: It was my fault. Don't cry, sister.
Qin Zhizhi only gets worse, until the entire sect despises her.
Feng Ling, the young lord of the demon race, has grown up alongside Qin Xiaoxiao and feels sorry for her. In a fit of anger, he burns Qin Zhizhi to death. As Qin Zhizhi dies, she sees Qin Xiaoxiao and Fu Changyuan pouring out their feelings to each other.
Qin Zhizhi dies with her eyes wide open.
When she wakes up, Qin Zhizhi pats her chest in relief. As soon as she steps outside, she sees her father leading a beautiful young woman and gently telling her, "Zhizhi, this is your half-sister."
Qin Zhizhi: "..."
Qin Zhizhi decides to stay away from her doted-on little sister and sets out on a journey. Then she finds an egg... Three months later, its shell cracks, and a handsome young boy with pearly teeth and red lips sits inside, babbling, "Big sister! Big sister!"
Qin Zhizhi's heart melts.
Fu Changyuan returns from his training and excitedly rushes to his junior sister Qin Zhizhi's home, only to find that she is not only extremely cold toward him, but also has a child. The child points at him and yells, "You scumbag! Stay away from my sister!"
Fu Changyuan: What did I do wrong...
Qin Xiaoxiao, a woman from another world, transmigrates into a book as a cannon-fodder character who loves the male lead, Fu Changyuan, with all her heart. She makes a comeback, not only winning over the young lord of the demon race, but also setting out to steal back the male lead who had tormented the original character a thousand times, only to dump him in the end. But then... she accidentally falls for him herself...
She never expected that the original heroine would still be spoiled and unruly, while Fu Changyuan not only doesn't despise her, but acts like a pathetic simp!
Feng Ling, young lord of the phoenix clan of the demon race, is reborn after undergoing nirvana, with no memories. For a time, he forgets Qin Xiaoxiao. When Qin Xiaoxiao accuses Qin Zhizhi, he even steps forward to defend her: "Witch! Don't bully my sister!"
Wait, no! She's my future wife!
Qin Xiaoxiao: Why does the plot seem all wrong...
Later... Qin Zhizhi finally learns that the egg she found and carefully raised belongs to the young lord of the demon race, who burned her to death in her dream. By then, the young boy has grown tall and handsome beyond compare.
The entire demon race treats her with the utmost respect. "We welcome the young lord's wife!"
Qin Zhizhi: Is it too late for me to leave now?
