Ling Fuying, an ordinary cannon fodder female supporting character in a danmei novel, discovers that her husband and her mentor are having affair—realizing she is merely a pawn in their twisted relationship.
Her hypocritical husband, the 'bottom' in the novel, maintains a facade of gentility while hiding a cold heart. Her seemingly aloof mentor, the 'top', appears pure and untouchable yet succumbs to bouts of frost poison, losing his sanity with flushed cheeks.
Her arrogant eldest brother, a sect leader, covets her mentor and willingly switches roles to pursue him, only to exit the stage empty-handed. The scheming, wheelchair-bound young master who antagonizes her is infatuated with her husband—frail and porcelain-skinned, prone to tears.
In this world where male-male relationships reign, the protagonists battle fiercely without morals or restraint. As the doomed cannon fodder, Ling Fuying chooses to avoid the drama and live leisurely. Yet, inexplicably, the men around her begin acting strangely.
Her husband demands marital duties, her mentor grips her wrist with reddened eyes, while her brother and sickly rival make her flush. Though initially they circle her with hidden desires, eventually they bow at her feet, begging for her affection.
This follows the story of a迟钝暴躁 (dull-tempered)女主 navigating a world of疯批 (madmen), evolving from a laid-back existence to ascending the path of cultivation.
【Note: All male characters are inherently heterosexual but influenced by plot-induced cognitive distortions.】
