Lin Xiao was a university student in the new century with a full schedule every day: in a word, it was painful and... painful. She didn't have any great ambitions. She just wanted to graduate without a hitch, find a decent job, and build a little home of her own. Her usual hobbies were reading novels and binge-watching dramas. But before she could do anything after graduation, she found herself in a completely unfamiliar place.
Surrounded by antique pavilions and towers, and seeing that her own room looked quite impressive, Lin Xiao was thrilled. “I've actually landed the role of a wealthy young lady after transmigrating into a book!”
After asking around about her situation, Lin Xiao looked up at the sky. “Ha. I transmigrated into this book? I'm doomed.”
The Wind and Cranes was a novel Lin Xiao had clicked on by chance, because one of its minor characters was named Lin Xiao. Of course, Lin Xiao wasn't an uncommon name, so she hadn't paid much attention to it. The reason she remembered the book was that even the young masters and ladies in it had to attend classes, with a whole school system of their own. She'd once left a joking comment: “With a setting like this, even if I transmigrated into it, I couldn't escape the miserable fate of studying.”
Her words had come true. Lin Xiao trembled with fear. The first half of the original story was fairly peaceful, but for some reason the protagonist group went berserk in the second half, practically destroying the world. Many noble clans and powerful families were taken down by them. Lin Xiao couldn't remember the details or the ending, but she did remember complaining that the story was bizarre and illogical. The Lin family probably wouldn't escape either.
Never mind that. To stay alive, she had to keep away from the protagonist group. Most important of all, she had to avoid the central protagonist... Xie Chen.
