Jiang Yuan once entered the world of a book to win over Xiao Ming in hopes of curing a terminal illness; however, even after bearing his son, Xiao Yuan, the two never married. When she attempted to force Xiao Ming into marriage, she was thwarted by the story's female lead, Song Hanqing, and ultimately abandoned the mission to leave. Consequently, both the elder and younger Xiao men turned dark and vengeful following her departure. At the system's behest, Jiang Yuan returned to the story, unexpectedly bringing along Xie Ning—her child from the real world. This time, she put Song Hanqing in her place and refused to reconcile with Xiao Ming, intending to leave immediately after celebrating Xiao Yuan's birthday. Although Xiao Ming desperately tried to prevent her return, her husband, Xie Yinan, arrived to take her back. Jiang Yuan resumed her normal life, and the Xiao father and son eventually shed their dark, vengeful nature.
