Lin Jingmeng transmigrates into a sweet romance novel as a lovesick supporting female character whose love for the male lead goes unreturned. After carefully reviewing the plot, she decides to stay away from the mad, obsessive second male lead, Song Zhihe, or she won't survive.
Keeping this one rule of survival in mind, Lin Jingmeng avoids the leads and the second male lead, and runs off to live in a remote town.
On the way, she takes in a badly injured young man covered in blood. Though both his legs are broken, once he is cleaned up, he turns out to be impossibly handsome, with a cool, otherworldly air, like the moon in the sky, untouched by the mortal world.
His eyes are innocent and confused. When Lin Jingmeng gently tells him to leave, he helplessly hugs himself, like a puppy soaked by the rain. Only his eyes shine with startling brightness.
Lin Jingmeng swallows. She can't help but go soft. Life after transmigrating is dull and boring, and maybe a beauty can cheer her up.
He has no family and loves to cling to her. Lin Jingmeng is happy to let him, and often takes little liberties with him, smiling as his face flushes and his eyes darken.
At last, it belatedly occurs to Lin Jingmeng to ask his name.
At that moment, he is kneeling beside the bed, his smooth black hair spilling into the hollow of her neck. He smiles and breathes against her ear. "I am... Song Zhihe..."
Lin Jingmeng: ...Help?! Somebody help!
The candlelight flickers. Dressed in her bright red wedding robes, Lin Jingmeng grabs her bundle and runs away in the middle of their wedding night.

A voice in Song Zhihe's mind tells him that, three hundred li west of the city, his destined calamity awaits.
He can't help smiling. Is it the kind of calamity that can kill him?
He injures himself and finally waits until nightfall for the interesting young woman to arrive.
But she has no intention of hurting him. She even tends to his wounds patiently. The only strange thing is that she seems more interested in his body.
Song Zhihe never knew his body could be used in so many ways, or that her touch could make him tremble with excitement.
He likes it. Song Zhihe suddenly no longer wants to toy with his prey before killing them like he used to. He thinks he might as well keep her trapped by his side forever.
But... on the night of their wedding, she actually ran away.
Song Zhihe smiles. What kind of punishment should he give her?
Disobedient people deserve to be punished...

Lin Jingmeng always thought that if she ever saw Song Zhihe again, he would kill her without hesitation.
Instead, he crosses a field of corpses, his hands stained with blood. Song Zhihe strokes her cheek, his eyes filled with startling possessiveness. "Lin Jingmeng..."
He points his sword at the lifeless assassins and tilts his head toward Lin Jingmeng, a mischievous smile curling on his lips. "If you leave me, you'll die."
Reader's guide:
1. The original male and female leads are not vilified. The story is entirely fictional and blends genres freely, so don't overanalyze it.
2. After falling for the heroine, the male lead becomes extremely possessive and may go crazy. He gets a little competitive with imagined rivals. His greatest virtues are his looks and how much he loves the heroine. The heroine is a normal person, and it takes time for her to go from being afraid to accepting him.
Theme: Just when all seems lost, a new hope appears.
