Yun Wan Ning wakes up to find herself transported into a novel as the hated, short-lived villainess. Worried for her family’s future, she can only cry out inwardly:
[Mother, your so-called dear niece is plotting to seduce Father and destroy your reputation. In the end, it will lead to your death.]
[Father, you will be framed by the female lead and treacherous ministers. After you die, your severed head will be hung on the city walls as a public disgrace.]
[Sister, even though your fiancé is the male lead, you are not the heroine. If you do not leave him, you will be sold to villagers, tortured, and beaten to death.]
[Brother, be wary of your friend Gu Heng. He is the female lead’s lackey and will betray you to help her.]
[And Second Brother, once you lose your memory and fall into the female lead’s hands, you will become her loyal dog. You will harm Uncle Qi and your beloved, who will die in your arms.]
Yet as time passes, Yun Wan Ning is stunned to discover that her warnings have completely altered the course of fate.
Her mother strikes first, dismantling their enemies in advance and cutting off every hidden danger. Her father escapes death and lives to expose and topple the corrupt ministers.
Her sister marries the Emperor himself and becomes the most favored woman in the inner palace.
Her brother betrays his treacherous friend before the friend can turn on him, and her Second Brother is reunited with his beloved instead of losing her. Even Uncle Qi, once smeared and despised, becomes a highly sought-after match among noble families.
Looking at her family’s lives turning out better and better, Yun Wan Ning is left completely bewildered. Their roles as “villains” have been overturned so thoroughly that she cannot help but wonder:
Did she transmigrate into a fake version of the story after all?
