Wen Ran seemed to have it all: noble birth, stunning looks, and a celestial fiancé. But after years in this world, she remembered she was a character in a book. She was the male lead’s fiancée, his unattainable love, and the one who “saved” him—until she wasn’t.
On a fateful cliff, forced to choose between Wen Ran and another, the male lead picked Wen Ran. The other fell. The winds howled, and Wen Ran remembered: she wasn’t the savior, and he didn’t love her. The one he loved, the real savior, was the one he pushed away.
In his agony, the male lead turned dark, launching into a wife-chasing to death. Wen Ran, realizing she was just a side character, thought it was over. But on that same cliff, she watched in shock as her “pure” fiancé kicked the other girl into the abyss. He smiled at her, “You have no idea why I did that, do you?” Wen Ran was stunned. His perfect image shattered.

Years later, he poked her face and asked her in curiosity, "Wife-chasing to death—does that mean I should throw you into that abyss and run after you?"He appeared eager to try, which left Wen Ran in a long silence.

She wasn't sure whether this person was really a naive flower, or pretending to be one, so she cautiously asked, "Since you've rescued us, why do you keep us locked in the room?"


Since he could see them now anyway, she didn't bother hiding anymore and asked directly.


The white-robed gentleman said confusedly, "I have you locked in the room?"


"After we woke up, we wanted to leave the room and take a look outside, but couldn't open the door."


A look of surprise appeared on the handsome face of the white-robed gentleman, "The door isn't locked, it slides open, like this..."


He extended both hands as if holding the door frame, then slid them from the left to the right.


After living in this world for so many years, she had completely forgotten about sliding doors!


The gentleman naively asked again, "If you couldn't open the door, how did you get out?"
