Ye Jijie transmigrates into a minor female character who is devotedly and hopelessly in love with the male lead, secretly pining for him without anyone noticing.
From the time he was a prince until he usurped the throne and became emperor, she spends eight years acting carefully, finally making it through the original story and returning to her own world.
After eight years away from society, she plans to sharpen her wits and get her social skills back.
But just a few days after returning to the real world, a bug in the System pulls her back to the beginning of the original story.
Looking at the male lead, who is still a prince, Ye Jijie thinks: I'm tired. Let's destroy everything.

Ye Jijie lets her family arrange a marriage for her.
But in the end, she still becomes a secondary consort to the prince.
So she gives up trying
At a palace banquet, the Noble Consort picks on her. Ye Jijie stares at her for a moment. "Your Highness, there's food stuck in your teeth."
The Noble Consort's face changes dramatically. Without another word, she covers her face and hurries away.
After Ye Jijie spends the night with the prince, the Princess Consort arrives with a bowl of contraceptive soup, looking down her nose at her. "With your lowly status, you're not fit to bear His Highness's child."
Ye Jijie kneels at her feet and clutches her leg, shaking it. "I understand. Please, don't say any more. Don't humiliate me, please!"
The Princess Consort is stunned. The whole string of scoldings she'd prepared dies on her lips.
When she returns to her parents' home, her legitimate elder sister mocks her and puts her down. Ye Jijie looks her up and down, then makes an indescribable face. "No wonder everyone says that about you. I didn't think it was actually true..."
Her elder sister freezes. For three days and nights, she tosses and turns, unable to figure out what people said about her.

Prince of Yan Xiahou Wei has spent half his life on the battlefield and holds power over the land. Looking back over his life, there is only one person who has always been true to him.
Ye Jijie was born into a prominent family, quiet and dignified, yet she took arrows for him, drank poison for him, and loved him with all her heart.
Given another life, he decides to grant her wish and shower her with all the love in the world.
On their wedding night, Xiahou Wei remembers how he left her alone in their bridal chamber in his previous life, weeping her eyes out.
He casts everything else aside and rushes into the bridal chamber, only to find Ye Jijie sprawled on her back, snoring loudly.
Xiahou Wei: ?
What happened to weeping her eyes out?
[Bonus Scene]
At the banquet, Xiahou Wei glances at Ye Jijie, who is eating with gusto, her hair damp and soft. He reins in a laugh and says, "You're pretty cute."
Ye Jijie nods. "Thanks. You're pretty big too."
Xiahou Wei: ...
