Lin Mengyao accidentally transmigrates into a sweet ancient romance novel she's read, only to become the wicked supporting female character who meets a gruesome end!
Naturally, the first thing she does after transmigrating into the book is stay away from the male lead. She'll never be his lovesick lapdog again, and she won't interfere with the leads getting together.
A garden outing? Oh! The male lead will be there? Fine, she's not going.
A trip to West Lake? The male lead has booked the whole place? Oh! She'll keep well away.
Then a plague suddenly breaks out. An expert in medicine in her real world, she saves lives, and the male lead is among those infected with the terrible disease. She can't avoid him this time, can she?
With no other choice, she goes to treat him. Fine, she'll make sure to keep her distance, but... what the heck? Why does the male lead keep getting closer and closer to her?
Lin Mengyao can't figure it out. At the lantern festival, the male lead stands the female lead up and happens to run into her on the street. She turns and walks away at once, so no one can accuse her of being a shameless stalker.
But the male lead catches up in just a few strides, grabs her arm, and refuses to let go. "Why have you been avoiding me lately? What, playing hard to get?"
What the heck!
See?
I told you I shouldn't run into him!
Was there a competition for tacit understanding between couples in ancient times? Can I still be the male lead when he is so restless?
