Su Yi is a plot awakener who realizes she is a minor cannon fodder character in a wealthy family novel. Born to parents who separately married into rich families, she is treated as a burden and lives a life of servitude, constantly trying to please her step-family. Upon awakening to her fictional existence, she flees her home to avoid her destined death, which occurs when she accidentally falls down stairs while trying to protect her half-sister, Cheng Lele. With only a unique golden finger that allows her to understand animal language, she attempts to build a new life as a livestreamer. Her initial struggles are severe, leaving her with mere cents to her name and facing starvation. She starts a pet consultation livestream, charging small fees to help owners understand their pets' behaviors and secrets.
Her first major client is a teenage boy named Yuanyuan's Father, who owns an overweight orange cat. Through the cat, Su Yi uncovers that the boy's best friend is cheating on his girlfriend. The revelation leads to a public confrontation between the boys, which inadvertently promotes Su Yi's stream. She gains traction by solving various pet-related mysteries, including helping Cheng Lele, her half-sister, discover that her friend's fiancé is a gambler hiding financial ruin. This exposure saves the friend from a fraudulent marriage and earns Su Yi significant wealth and followers.
A pivotal turning point occurs when a rabbit named Tutu breaks into Su Yi's apartment. Tutu reveals that his elderly owner, Zheng Sufen, is being targeted by her grand-nephew, Zheng Ping, who is attempting to forge documents to steal her property. Su Yi accompanies Tutu to the grandmother's home, where they discover the forged deed hidden in the nephew's room. The confrontation escalates when Zheng Ping becomes violent, but Su Yi had alerted the police beforehand. The authorities arrive, arrest Zheng Ping, and clear Su Yi's name. The grateful grandmother offers Su Yi a rent-free apartment in exchange for looking after the property.
Su Yi's fame continues to grow as she takes on high-profile clients. One such client is Lavender, an assistant to a celebrity named Ye Zijin. Her dog, Lightning, a Border Collie, reveals during a livestream that his owner uses him as a tool to flirt with women and manage his public image. Lightning also exposes Ye Zijin's infidelity. The broadcast goes viral, sparking a massive scandal that threatens Ye Zijin's career. Netizens deduce the celebrity's identity, and Su Yi becomes the center of attention, labeled as the source of the rumors. Despite the danger, her ability to communicate with animals continues to draw viewers, positioning her as an influential figure in the entertainment industry's underbelly. She navigates the risks of her new fame while maintaining her independence from the wealthy families she once served.
