Nan Zhu died, then woke up a hundred years later, having transmigrated into the world of a novel as a vicious supporting female character who wouldn't survive past chapter three.
As a stand-in for the female lead, the sect's dearly departed white moonlight, everyone from the sect leader to the servants treats the original owner with hostility.
Her aloof, otherworldly master personally destroyed her spiritual roots and warned her to know her place and not draw attention to herself. Her refined, elegant senior brother treats her with cold indifference alone, letting ferocious beasts tear into her during a secret-realm trial without lifting a finger.
Only her gloomy, antisocial junior brother takes her hand with tender concern, expressing his affection and longing in the gentlest voice.
The original owner fell hopelessly in love with her junior brother.
Nan Zhu, however, knows full well that this scumbag junior brother is the novel's trash male lead, a shameless, despicable bastard.
According to the plot, on his wedding night, her junior brother will sneak into the forbidden grounds and offer the original owner's body to the villainous demon lord sleeping beneath them, hoping to bring his white moonlight back to life.
They say the villain is bloodthirsty and brutal, with countless deaths to his name, a madman so terrifying that even dogs steer clear of him.
And now, late at night, the red candles flicker in the room and the wedding characters glow bright. This is the night she is about to be offered to the villain.
The doors and windows swing open, and a cold wind rushes into the room. The villain, dragging a long, bloodstained blade, slowly reaches for her throat.
The moment her veil slips off, Nan Zhu, who had been happily stuffing her face, awkwardly meets the villain's gaze.
That would have been bad enough, but why does the villain look so much like her ex from a hundred years ago, that elegant, persistent man she cruelly kicked to the curb?
Before she can react, the villain, who had just been ready to kill her at the slightest provocation, suddenly changes expression.
His bloodied fingers grip Nan Zhu's chin. His eyes red, he says, "You tricked me out of my body and stole my heart. Now you're wearing a wedding dress. Which dead man are you planning to marry?"
