Please Recommend Stories Where the Heroine Transmigrates into a Book as the Villainess and Doesn't Follow the Plot!!
I absolutely don’t want stories where the heroine has to follow the original plot. If she transmigrates into a supporting female character and has to stick to the plot, she can’t do this or that, and might even get punished by the System if she does. It feels so frustrating. So I’m looking for stories where she doesn’t follow the plot.

I can't find a book! I vaguely remember the female lead reporting to a new school. Her exam scores were the same as the male lead's, so their names were both at the top, or maybe highlighted in gold!

The author writes so well! I love both Wen Zhaoli and Duan Xu, but the female lead is truly independent and clear-headed. I love reading this! Although I like Duan Xu more, the second male lead is also great 😢😢
The writing is very delicate, and the setting is quite novel. The scene in particular, where the female protagonist dreams of her counterpart in another world in a hospital, is incredibly detailed. I really like Duan Xu. He's perfect for the male lead—cool, rational, and devoted. From the very beginning, he knew Yu Ran as a person, not the Yu Ran from before.
I can only say it's really nice. The female lead is always very clear-headed, and from the author's writing, I felt that Yu Ran is like something elusive, hard to grasp. How to put it... It's like she won't truly stay in this world. To be honest, I don't think this is a transmigration into a book, but rather a time travel. I want people in this parallel universe to know who she is.
The female lead is so beautiful and insightful! I love her so much! I just hope the author updates soon so I can keep reading! I'm really enjoying this, author! Can you please update soon? 😢😢😢
It's so good! 🌹🌹 Looking forward to the future development of Yu Ran and Duan Xi's story 🌚🌚 Hoping the author will update soon! 🌹 Watching the female lead take Wen Zhaoli to see the stars not only healed Wen Zhaoli, but also healed me 😭 The author's writing is also very good ❤️
The writing is incredibly realistic, and unlike other transmigration novels where everyone around the female protagonist falls head over heels in love with her, the story unfolds gradually. The characters, both main and supporting, come alive; they're not mindless. I almost suspect the author experienced it firsthand.
It's really good. The female lead is very clear-headed and not a saint. I hope Duan Xu is the male lead!
It's really great, I really like the female lead, and there are so many beautiful lines in it. For example, "The most devout person in the world is right outside the emergency room of the hospital." "Look, don't the stars look like those who have left?" How is it similar? "We can only reminisce about the past, but we cannot witness the future." "
After reading it twice, this is truly a book I can't forget!!! Last summer, I stayed up all night reading "Hmph Hmph Hmph," and it became my number one time-travel novel. Yu Ran has a really good personality. She doesn't fight back and has a strong heart. When Jiang Tang was being bullied at school, I think every choice she made was right. If it were me, I would definitely help her too.
A really good book! Although it's a new book, the characters are very vivid. Yu Ran's despair upon discovering she has no way to leave, Wen Zhaoli's struggle upon learning the truth. I'll be a long-time fan once this book becomes popular!!! 🍉🍉 Hehe, I finished reading it! I waited until the author finished it and read it all in one go, hehehehehehehe
