After the Cannon Fodder Awakens, She Becomes Everyone's Crush

[Next up: Dating Variety Show [Quick Transmigration]]

Blurb from the heroine's perspective:

Bai Shuyu had a dream. In it, she dumped her poor, aloof childhood friend and got together with a rich second-generation heir.

Later, when trouble struck his family, she dumped him too, and eventually got together with a wealthy CEO.

But it didn't last long. The CEO's first love returned from abroad, and this time she was the one who got dumped. A single check ended their relationship.

When she looked back, she discovered that her childhood friend had been found by his wealthy family and had become the heir to the Nan Group. A girl who seemed intensely hostile toward her was always appearing at his side.

It turned out that the trouble with the second-generation heir's family had also been faked. Apparently, following his childhood sweetheart's advice, he had used the incident to test her loyalty, and the CEO had been bait.

A wasted effort that came to nothing: that was her story.

None of that was too bad, but what truly infuriated her was being murdered in the dream. The sensation of dying was so real that she finally realized none of it was a dream.

Just as she was really about to die, a flash of white light appeared before her eyes. Time turned back, returning her to not long after she had broken up with Yu Ran.

And this twist of time awakened her.

But what she thought was being reborn was actually something else entirely. Everyone and everything in this world was being controlled by someone else.

Official blurb:

With the burden of a rapidly growing interstellar population becoming too great, the Interstellar Headquarters created a brand-new virtual world to facilitate population migration. To win the citizens' trust, it recreated a new virtual game world, borrowing its setting directly from the hugely popular romance game Mermaid.

Mermaid is a dating sim aimed at women. Its game world is a supernatural urban setting, telling the story of a mermaid born beneath the sea who escapes the cage of a feudal system, comes ashore to pursue her dream, overcomes countless difficulties, and becomes an accomplished dancer.

Along the way, three male leads and two antagonists appear. Players advance the story by interacting intimately with the characters or simply spending money in the game.

Headquarters changed some of the supernatural elements and the world setting, then hired four female mission-takers opposed to the heroine to enter the new world. To make the mission-takers feel immersed, they were only told that the world would be presented through a 360-degree, uninterrupted livestream. They would not be able to see the comments or contact the outside world.

However, because Headquarters initially gave the mission-takers too many privileges, the citizens protested after the heroine was driven to jump into the sea. The storyline was brought back on track, and a male mission-taker was hired to help the heroine regain her halo.

This game world, created to prove the reliability of virtual worlds, will be destroyed once the game ends.

But in corners no one notices, as memories are repeatedly erased and settings altered, some of the protagonists are slowly awakening.

Before you read:

1. I don't want to write a simple transmigrate-into-a-book-and-be-reborn story. This one has multiple elements.

2. After being reborn, the heroine gains a baffling skill that makes her burst into tears, so she cries quite often. If that bothers you, read with caution.

3. This story was inspired by The Male Leads in Every World Have Been Reborn, version 1.0 of the love rivalry, but the story itself is different.
