Long Shuang transmigrated as the novel’s vicious supporting character Shen Shuang, who’d turned male lead Zhou Jibai vegetative and died in the original plot. To survive, she protected Zhou, outwitted his property-grabbing relatives Zhou Meilin and Yang Chumo, and flirted with him—making him fall for her. When original female lead Ye Xinqiao showed up, Shen Shuang tried to match them up, hoping this would send her back to the modern world. But Zhou, noticing her distance, got her drunk and learned her plan. He pursued her relentlessly. After Ye Xinqiao confessed she didn’t love Zhou and urged Shen Shuang to follow her heart, Shen Shuang chose to stay with Zhou in the novel world.
