[Transmigrating into a book + hilarious twists on the tropes + laughter keeps her alive + entertainment-industry comeback + 1v1 sweet romance]
On her first day after transmigrating into a book, Jiang Zao had only three days left to live.
The System wanted her to keep playing the most hated, attention-seeking supporting actress on the internet: cling to her ex, offend the heroine, and ultimately ruin her reputation before leaving showbiz right on schedule.
Jiang Zao asked, “Is there any chance I just don’t want to play along?”
Soon, she discovered that every time she genuinely made someone laugh, she could extend her life.
So while everyone else went on shows to find love, Jiang Zao went on them to stay alive.
Her ex publicly distanced himself from her. “Jiang Zao, I don’t like you.”
With red-rimmed eyes, Jiang Zao pulled out her phone. “Fine. That bubble tea you owe me from last month was 88 yuan. Are you paying by QR code or cash?”
The whole set fell silent for three seconds, then burst out laughing.
For the first time, her life bar started to rise.
From then on, Jiang Zao stopped making excuses, stopped playing the victim, and stopped saving other people’s reputations.
When the show’s producers set a trap, she turned it into a joke. When her agency tried to give her an image, she insisted on speaking for herself. While the whole internet waited for her to mess up, she went from an actress everyone loved to hate to a star on set and the silver screen.
Then she discovered an even more outrageous hidden rule:
Other people laughing kept her alive.
Xie Zhiye laughing counted double.
Jiang Zao stared at the famously stoic actor in the observation room and fell silent for two seconds.
“Got it.”
“Everyone else is an audience. You’re a fast charger.”
At first, she treated him as nothing more than a tool for staying alive.
But later, Xie Zhiye became the first person to understand the will to survive behind every one of her jokes.
Everyone thought she’d made a comeback by acting crazy.
Only she knew that from that day on, she’d simply refused to live by a script written by someone else.

This novel is quite good, very funny and also very sad. The heroine is so miserable that most people would step on her. Even if she climbs out, there are still many people who will try their best to step her back into the pit. This is the strongest heroine I have ever seen.
