Lin Xiaoman stayed up all night reading a novel, only to wake up as the cannon fodder female character who’s tortured to death by the male lead! To avoid a tragic end, she decides to "lay low"—not competing for the male lead, not getting involved in family conflicts, just eating, drinking, and living as a "salted fish" (slang for someone who avoids trouble). But unexpectedly, Gu Jingshen, the male lead, suddenly gains the ability to hear her inner thoughts! When he hears her think, "Gu Jingshen is too dangerous—I need to stay far away," the usually cold man becomes interested. All other female characters cling to him, but this little girl wants to run? So Gu Jingshen finds ways to "coincidentally" meet her, brings her favorite osmanthus cake, helps her fend off troubles, and even stays with her all night when she’s sick. Lin Xiaoman panics: I just wanted to lay low to survive—why is he chasing me harder? Meanwhile, Gu Jingshen, watching her flustered reaction, hides a smile in his eyes—he never wanted to be a cold male lead anyway; what he wants is to keep this little girl who’s avoiding him by his side.
