After transmigrating into a 1990s-era novel as nothing more than a disposable side character, Lin Xiyue expected a quiet, forgettable life. Instead, she was dragged back to the city with her mother - only to be rejected by her so-called relatives, who wanted nothing to do with them. Fine. If they wouldn't take her in, she'd make her own way. With a bit of shameless persistence (and a lot of dramatic flair), Lin Xiyue successfully pushed her mother into remarrying her first love - a widower raising a young son on his own. And the moment she heard the boy's name- Lin Xiyue froze. Wait a second. Had she just... latched onto the male lead?! A gentle, refined male lead, no less - the kind who was supposed to revolve around the heroine, not her. So why- Why was he constantly sticking to her side? Why was someone known for being warm and mild suddenly so overbearing? And why did this so-called "gentle male lead" start locking her in the house?! Hold on. Something is very wrong here. Just what kind of monster is hiding inside that "gentle" shell? - Lin Xiyue: I've secured the male lead's backing - my future is guaranteed! Hehe~ He Mingchu: Picked up a little pet and brought her home... this should be fun. Heh. - Lin Xiyue: Wait... you're saying the original male lead has already been replaced... and this one is actually a yandere?! ...Am I still going to survive this?! He Mingchu: Hm? You're saying I didn't transmigrate - I entered a novel? ...Doesn't matter. With my little pet around, life is still quite entertaining.

In a small coastal town, there were rumors of a lonely young man who lived in a beautiful mansion alone. One day a young man came off a bus at the pitstop and didn't get back on. Instead, he searched for a real estate office and ended up buying a large mansion fitted with side buildings. Afterward, the town only saw him when he went out for groceries or the odd coffee. There were many ideas about this teenager, and hence tales were told through whispers and over drinks. "He's obviously a criminal. Why would such a handsome young man choose to settle down here?" "Is he handsome? I haven't seen him before!" "Oh my, he's a handsome fellow! That boy asked me where the real estate office was. I thought he was planning on inheriting land or something." "I heard from my friend that he sent someone to the hospital." "What if he murdered someone?" "Haven't you heard... The kids told me that the mansion lights were on for half the night! What could he be doing up so late?" "Now that you mention it... Isn't he jobless? Is he running a shady business somewhere?" Shin Jun had no idea that moving to a small town would cause him to be misunderstood so badly. He'd simply found a cute little, silent town on a bus ride and decided to settle down.

Lin Zheng transmigrated into a sweet and pampering romance novel, becoming the pitiful cannon fodder receiver-a character known for his taciturn nature, reticence, frequent bullying, and ten years of unrequited love for the male protagonist. While the main couple follows a sweet and pampering storyline, his own path is a blatant tragic romance. According to the plot, he'd date the male protagonist for a while, but after two months, upon the protagonist's meeting with the main receiver, he would be mercilessly abandoned, then ridiculed and driven away to live a miserable life alone. He transmigrated right as he was in a relationship with the male protagonist. When people saw him holding flowers: "They say he got these flowers after relentlessly pursuing Young Master Gu, who reluctantly bought them for him on the roadside." When people saw him waiting for the bus alone: "He must have angered Young Master Gu, who couldn't stand him anymore." When people saw him leaving the cinema alone: "I heard that Young Master Gu is pursuing Young Master Wu's son, probably tired of playing with him." However, the flowers were a carefully chosen gift from Gu Lin, who took time off work to personally select them for Lin Zheng. He was waiting for the bus alone because Gu Lin had upset Lin Zheng, and he refused to get into Gu Lin's car, so Gu Lin followed him in his car the entire way. He left the cinema alone because Lin Zheng said he was cold, and Gu Lin went back to the car to get him a coat. Unseen, Gu Lin held his lover's hand, kissing him lovingly. Everyone: "Wait, wasn't this supposed to be a tragic romance?!" Although Gu Lin treated him well, Lin Zheng noticed that while minor details might change, important plot points related to the main characters seemed unchangeable. He guessed that Gu Lin would still abandon him after two months upon meeting the main receiver. So, he decided to abandon Gu Lin before he met the main receiver, packing his bags and running away.
