Ethan's head throbbed violently as he opened his eyes, his vision hazy and unfocused. A dull ringing filled his ears, drowning out his thoughts.“What’s happening…?” he thought, his mind sluggish, struggling to catch up with reality. One moment, he was asleep—or at least, he thought he was—and the next, searing pain forced him awake.His vision swam, shapes blurring together in a disorienting mess. But then, muffled noises filtered through the haze—frantic, panicked sounds. Someone was trying to scream, their voice smothered, choked by something.A cold shiver ran down his spine.As his sight gradually sharpened, Ethan's breath hitched.He was on all fours, looming over someone. A girl.Her body twisted and writhed beneath him, ropes biting into her wrists and ankles. Her mouth was gagged, muffling her cries. Her wide brown eyes, brimming with fear and fury, glared up at him.Ethan's body locked in place, his blood running cold.“What the…?” His mind reeled, thoughts slamming into each other in chaotic disarray. “What kind of bizarre dream is this?”Panic clawed at his chest. His breath came in ragged, uneven gasps as he scrambled backward, only to realize his limbs felt sluggish, uncooperative, like they didn’t belong to him.“Is this… is this some kind of twisted fantasy I never knew I had?” A sickening thought slithered through his mind, making his stomach churn.The girl's frantic squirming slowed for a moment, her gaze flickering with confusion as she took in his expression—his trembling hands, his wide, horrified eyes. But the fear returned just as quickly. She struggled harder, her body arching, her muffled screams rising in pitch.Ethan wanted to speak, to say something, anything, but before he could force out a word, a glowing blue window materialized before his eyes.His breath caught.A translucent, hovering screen?“What…?”Lines of glowing text scrolled across its surface.---[System Activated…][Host Confirmed.][Simulating Previous Data…]Ethan awakens in a mysterious world, shackled by a curse that clouds his judgment and drives him toward choices he never wished to make. Burdened by guilt and responsibility, he must navigate the fallout of his actions while unraveling the truth behind the curse—and his place in this enigmatic new reality.

Ye Youqing was originally a big boss in the business world. Who would have known that he died one day and dressed as an abusive female protagonist who was pushed to the ground by the male protagonist.
The female protagonist, as the direct daughter of the imperial government, married the male protagonist, was abused every day, and finally ended up in ruins.
Ye Youqing: …I don’t want any money, are you human?
So, she killed the male protagonist, seized the family wealth, fought against the concubine mother, and also picked up the vicious female partner who was her enemy and pestered the male protagonist and threw it out of the door.
Unexpectedly, the vicious female partner of the fox spirit in the original book, who did not know which string was tied, turned to lie down in her room.
The woman is charming and seductive, leaning her soft body into her arms, exhaling like blue: “I want revenge, I want to make a deal with you.”
Ye Youqing was expressionless, stretched out her index finger and pushed her away.
“I want to trade with money.”
“As for anything else, that’s another price.”

As an abuse article that abused the heroine, Ye Youqing felt that the direction of the story was a bit wrong.
For example, the vicious female partner who should fall into the water with her and was rescued ashore by the male lead not only fell into the water for her, but also drilled into her arms wetly.
For example, the vicious female partner who should hook up the male protagonist on her wedding night not only ignores the male protagonist, but also falls drunk in her room with messy clothes.
For example, the vicious female partner who should hate her to the bone, one day sat on her couch wearing a wedding dress, winked like silk, and opened her lips with tears: “Ye Youqing, please.”

Ci Ke was slaughtered by the male protagonist since he was a child.
She thought Ye Youqing was an idiot who only thought about men, she thought she hated her to the bone.
Unexpectedly, later, she found that she was very smart, and found that she loved her deeply.
