On the night of the mid-autumn festival, the fox general Yuwen Hong Ce was ambushed in the Sailun Valley, and his entire army was wiped out. He endured and hibernated, vowing to find out the truth about the corruption of military equipment. On the same night, Wen Ding Yi, the daughter of a high-ranking official, lost her family because her father was falsely accused of collaborating with the enemy. She changed her name to Mu Xiao Shu and disguised herself as a man to become the executioner's apprentice. Eight years later, on the execution ground, Xiao Shu herself almost died under the knife, but was fortunately saved by Hong Ce. Little did he know that he had saved the daughter of a guilty minister who had had an affair with Wu Di, and little did she know that the one she was staring at was the son of the royal family who had caused her entire family to be wiped out.
What would you do if you accidentally found yourself inside the world of a script, playing the role of a tragic female lead used and discarded by the villainous male lead, even tortured to death? For Song Xiao Yu, the answer is obvious: run as far away as possible. She had the perfect escape plan, but reality said otherwise. Every time she tries to change the storyline or marry a supporting male character, she becomes trapped in a never-ending loop full of “bugs,” dying in 108 unique and absurd ways. In short, the game was over for her the moment it began. Eventually, Xiao Yu comes to a painful realization: no matter how hard she tries, the “plot” always pulls her back to the male lead, Nan Heng, forcing her to re-enact the script’s iconic scenes repeatedly. In this paper-thin world, so many characters are shackled by predestined roles. Some are imprisoned in palace intrigues, others are confined in grand aristocratic mansions. Some are trapped in toxic rivalries among women, while others endlessly pursue power and status. Some yearn for love and freedom but can only dance in fear, bound by invisible chains. Some dream of soaring like mighty birds, only to lose their spirit amid the monotony of daily life. Only when Xiao Yu realizes that she is no longer living in the old plot and Nan Heng isn’t the villain she thought he was, could they both find the truth and perhaps love along with it.
