Zuo Tianyao transmigrated into a cultivation novel and became the cultivation partner of He Lianying, the young lord of Yunzhan City.
He Lianying had a beloved woman he could never have, and Zuo Tianyao was merely her stand-in.
To support her struggling sect, Zuo Tianyao dutifully played the part of a stand-in. She had no interest in romance and only cared about the benefits.
Then He Lianying's friend Xiao Fangyuan brought back a woman who resembled his unattainable love even more than Zuo Tianyao did. Not long afterward, He Lianying said, "Tianyao, let's end our partnership."
Zuo Tianyao readily agreed. For the sake of the bigger picture, she kindly gave him a spoiler.
One day, Zuo Tianyao sought out He Lianying and said bluntly, "Xiao Fangyuan has a questionable identity and a wicked heart. You should be wary of him."
When she finished, He Lianying gave her a curious look and said, "All right."
Zuo Tianyao turned to leave. She had barely taken a few steps when someone suddenly grabbed her by the back of the neck and squeezed hard.
Zuo Tianyao: "?"
He Lianying leaned close to her ear. "Miss Zuo, you're so fair and refined-looking, but you've got quite a filthy mouth."
Zuo Tianyao: Oh no, why does this He Lianying sound like the villain?!!!

One day, during a meal with the three of them, He Lianying asked curiously, "Brother Xiao, have you found the woman you've never been able to forget?"
Xiao Fangyuan replied calmly, "I have."
He Lianying fired off three excited questions: "Really? Who is she? Where is she?"
Xiao Fangyuan: "She's being someone else's stand-in."
He Lianying: "…"
Zuo Tianyao: "…"
