Game, first playthrough begins.
Fifth Huan never dreamed that staying up late to binge-watch "Empresses in the Palace" would not only make her part of the transmigration-into-a-book craze, but also let her experience a gender swap. She calls it fascinating, only to discover that she’s transmigrated into a school romance she casually picked up that day, "The Innocent Girl Is Spicy", as a minor male character with a name that sounds the same but uses different characters. He’s the devoted second male lead’s roommate, and a cannon-fodder character who gets killed by the male lead for harassing the heroine.
Fifth Huan: I’m a level-ten "Empresses in the Palace" expert. You think I’m going to play mind games?
No.
Fifth Huan: I’m crazy. I’ll just lose it.
{clasps hands} Long live the insanity!
Serious synopsis:
Fifth Huan, heir to the first family of the Slanka Empire, has a secret: she transmigrated into a book, and did so as a mental patient.
Xi Siyuan, the original second male lead, has a secret of his own: this world repeats itself in an endless loop. Like an NPC who has gained self-awareness, he watches the people around him make the same choices again and again.
That is, until he meets a group of people who claim they, too, have lived through countless loops and retained their memories. They tell him they are the Resurrection Alliance, and that they have something more important to do. They invite him to join their big family.
That more important task is to
save all of humanity and restore ancient Earth.
Xi Siyuan: …
The group adds, “We’re all crazy, so you’ll fit right in.”
Xi Siyuan: …
Come on! I'll watch it when I have time
