Su Wanqing, a modern food blogger, transmigrates into a 1970s-era novel she once read. She becomes the story’s notorious female villain, a spoiled and foolish young woman whose family has fallen from grace.
In the original plot, the heroine spends her days obsessively pursuing the educated youth Lin Wenxuan. Her behavior alienates the entire village, and she is eventually manipulated by the novel’s male and female leads into marrying an elderly bachelor. Her life ends in misery.
The only person who ever genuinely protects her is Lu Shiyan, the novel’s feared villain. After her death, he devotes himself to avenging her, only to be destroyed by the protagonists in the end. His tragic fate leaves the deepest impression on Su Wanqing when she reads the novel.
Upon transmigrating, she awakens a system that offers her a choice between two potential romance targets. Remembering Lu Shiyan’s loyalty and tragic ending, she chooses him without hesitation. This immediately completes her beginner mission and rewards her with an unlimited storage space filled with supplies.
Determined to change both of their destinies, Su Wanqing abandons the original heroine-chasing plotline. She secures a stable position as a village scorekeeper, uses her storage space to improve her living conditions, works together with Lu Shiyan to build wealth through black-market trading, and prepares for the restoration of the national college entrance examination.
As they grow closer, the once-cold and intimidating Lu Shiyan gradually becomes fiercely protective and devoted to her. Together, they overturn the original storyline, expose the schemes of the novel’s male and female leads, and ensure that those who harmed them face the consequences of their own actions.
The novel combines transmigration, a system, unlimited-storage-space wish fulfillment, food and business elements, revenge against scheming protagonists, and a sweet romance between a beautiful, pampered heroine and a cold but deeply loyal villain. Rather than pursuing the original male lead, the heroine chooses the story’s villain from the beginning and works with him to build a happier future.
