Ye Cheng, male, and a devoted fan of angst-heavy romance novels.
Even though he was a guy, he had a little hobby: reading gay romance novels.
He had just finished another one, and stared pensively at the number one Xianxia VIP novel on the rankings, My Wife Died, So I Followed Her in Death.
Before reading: It's fine. A good book doesn't need a meaningful title to dress it up.
After reading: Are these VIP rankings rigged?
The plot went roughly like this:
The male lead and the female lead fell in love at first sight, got married in a flash, and became a couple everyone envied. Their newlywed days were blissful, but then a junior sister suddenly appeared. The male lead immediately lost his mind and fell in love with her. The junior sister followed the tried-and-true path of a wicked rival, framing the female lead before saying in a coquettish voice, "I didn't do it."
The female lead was just as baffling, responding to every problem with, "I didn't do it."
In the end, the female lead killed herself, and the male lead followed her in death beneath the peach tree where they'd first met.
Ye Cheng: The plot being disgusting is one thing, but the relationship isn't exclusive! It isn't exclusive!
My Wife Died, So I Followed Her in Death, by Excellent Male Man Lei Ting Jia Hao Long Ao Tian
That pen name sounded a bit like the kind of thing his roommate Fang Che's Pokemon would come up with. He'd go ask him. If it really was him, at least he could settle the score in person.
Suddenly, the world spun around him, and Ye Cheng transmigrated into a book as the female lead, Xie Xunye.
A note from the author:
Ye Cheng: I'm a damn straight guy! What does it mean to transmigrate into a gay romance novel as the female lead?
Fang Che: 666, you transmigrate into a book without me. 666, you even drag me along when you do it.
Theme: If heaven gives it to you, just accept it.
