After Becoming an NPC by the Protagonist’s Side

What’s it like to discover that you’re a side character in a novel?

Class 2A’s class monitor, Xu Yi, was the top scorer on the high school entrance exam and had held first place in her grade for years. On the surface, she was a cold, aloof academic ace, but she loved boys’ love novels. After her monthly exams, she treated herself to a melodramatic high school boys’ love novel. The more she read, the more something seemed off. Why was everyone around her in the story, except for the main characters?

The next morning, she woke up in a dorm room that was both familiar and strange. She lifted her pillow, but the novel was gone. When she went to class, she got confirmation: she had really transmigrated into a book!

As soon as she entered the classroom, she saw the impoverished, icy-cold top seated at his desk, reading without looking up. The rich bottom was bringing him hot water, complaining as he split half his breakfast with him and rudely told him to take his fever medicine.

Xu Yi was dazed. Wasn’t this exactly what happened in the fifth chapter she’d read yesterday? Good grief, read too many novels and you really can transmigrate into a book! And she was an NPC in a melodramatic angstfest!

Before long, Xu Yi realized she wasn’t the only one who had transmigrated into the book. Half the class officers had come along too. What a gathering of talent, all transmigrating into a book at once!

I hadn’t logged in for a while, and it wasn’t until I saw some readers’ comments that I realized I’d forgotten to give a heads-up about the content.

I’m incredibly sorry. I’m adding it now: the heroine has no romantic pairing, but there are two male-male couples and one female-male couple among the other characters. (Hopefully, putting it this way will get past moderation.)

And thank you so, so, so much to all the readers for your comments and for enjoying the story. I hope you can all stay happy, happy, happy ✩*:.˶˃ ᵕ ˂˵ .:*✩
