Synopsis

The rating just opened. It'll go up later!

One female lead, Bai Lu + System + Laid-back protagonist + Attention-seeker + Variety shows and movies + Nonlinear timeline

At fifteen, Lin Yu was knocked unconscious with a club while trying to save Bai Mengyan, and remained in a coma for a week.

After waking up, Lin Yu, whose grades were only average, declared that he would become the provincial top scorer in the college entrance exam.

Everyone thought the blow had made him stupid. Only Lin Yu knew that if he failed to become provincial top scorer, he'd have to experience a restart of his life.

System: “Ding! The Host is in mortal danger. Emergency System binding initiated to save the Host's life.”

“To save the Host's life, the System has bound itself ahead of schedule and exhausted its energy. It is about to enter sleep mode. First, here's your initial mission: become the province's top scorer in the college entrance exam. Completing the mission will reward you with beginner-level on-camera charisma. If you fail, this System will be erased, and the male lead will also get the chance to restart the game!”

Lin Yu: “... What the hell (¬д¬.)! Where have you dragged me off to? System, don't go to sleep yet! Don't novels say you get a starter pack when you bind to a System? Where's mine? Don't play dead!”

“Ding! The Host has received a beginner's gift pack: Clear Mind.”

Years later, Bai Mengyan has become a popular rising star in the entertainment industry, while Lin Yu is a famous slacker prince at Heshong.

The story begins when Bai Lu invites Lin Yu to join Keep Running.

Lin Yu: “My ideal type? Obviously Teacher Yang Mi. That big secret... I mean, that big sister. Who wouldn't love her?”

Bai Mengyan: “Lin Yu, you're so dead! You hear me? Even Jesus can't save you!”

I want an entertainment-industry story that feels very close to reality, with things like endorsement copy, variety-show narration, and the process of making a game. The most common entertainment-industry plots these days are about running into someone you dislike and then fighting and scheming against each other. I don’t want that kind of backstabbing.

Overall, it's alright. The main character does have a bit of a victim mentality, and the romance is well-written. However, the game's plot is all about setting off right now, with almost no Running Man elements! But overall, it's still worth reading.

It's a pretty good new book, full of interesting witty remarks. I haven't found any major flaws yet. The narrative is both detailed and rough, making it a pleasant read. It's worth checking out.

It's really good. Bai Lu is the female lead, which is great. I highly recommend it; I really like it. I hope the author doesn't ruin the ending! It looks good, but why is it getting shorter and shorter?!

So far, this book seems quite interesting. I welcome any suggestions on its future development. If you write something good, I'll just copy it!

It's a great read, I love it! The author is writing well, there aren't any major flaws so far, keep it up! 😘

I think it's well-written and quite enjoyable; I hope it doesn't have a bad ending. I've read this book several times already. I like to listen to a novel while working, so it's definitely to my liking. If I had to point out a flaw, it's that it's a bit short. Author, can you please update faster? What's 200,000+ words? My foreign neighbor thinks I'm looking down on him, so he's been updating like crazy, ten chapters a day!

It looks pretty good so far, and I'm looking forward to seeing how it develops. It's well-written, and it's a book I'll be rereading frequently lately. Although the male lead has a system, its presence isn't very noticeable. There are no flaws in the relationship between the male lead and Bai Lu. However, two chapters a day isn't enough; could you please update more frequently? I'm looking forward to the later developments and hope the author doesn't go astray.
