After a whirlwind marriage, Shen Moli woke up to the truth: she was the cannon-fodder character in a melodramatic CEO romance, destined to give everything for the male lead without question.
The wicked System demanded that she, a hearing-impaired woman, donate her eyes to the male lead and then die. Enraged, Moli smacked it flat.
Donate my corneas? Not in this lifetime!
To escape the plot's control, Shen Moli latched onto the biggest villain in the original story. After their marriage, her powerful patron covered her meals and lodging and even arranged a job for her.
It was just that the villain seemed to look at her a little strangely.

Huo Duo often dreamed the same dream, about the same person. In the dream, they loved each other and stayed together.
But he could never find that person in real life, until one night, a girl suddenly barged into his room.
She was sweet, soft, and beautiful, and flirted without realizing it. After seeing something she shouldn't have, she blushed and said she was married and couldn't take responsibility, but could pay him off instead.
Pay him off? Absolutely not.
So what if she was married? She could always get a divorce.
Later, on a rainy night, Huo Duo pinned Shen Moli against the floor-to-ceiling window. Tears shimmered in her eyes, and her voice broke.
Huo Duo leaned in, caught her flushed earlobe between his lips, and murmured, "Sweetheart, you taste so sweet."
