Over tea and after meals, the people of Baitang Village had no juicier gossip than the village Party secretary's youngest daughter, Zhou Yaoyao, breaking off her engagement.
They had been childhood sweethearts, but after one of them nearly drowned, they went their separate ways, leaving the whole village in an uproar.
But only Zhou Yaoyao, who had transmigrated into a book, knew the truth: she'd been cast as the wicked former fiancée. If she didn't run now, she'd follow the original plot to a broken home and a miserable death.
Just as she happily prepared to start a new life, the original male and female leads started going off the rails one after another, and Zhou Yaoyao was repeatedly caught in the crossfire.
And whenever she had a run of bad luck, she'd run into Yao Jinnian, the village's aloof educated youth. “Zhou Yaoyao, how are you this unlucky?”
I don't like the heroine character very much
