Mi Shu transmigrates into a book.
She becomes a cannon-fodder character in a melodramatic novel about the entertainment industry, the wealthy, and corporate power struggles.
From the start, she's caught framing the heroine. A male supporting character exposes her at once, the whole internet mocks her, and her company puts her on ice. Then comes a life of poverty. What a disastrous opening.
Mi Shu rubs her chin and stays silent for a long time. Then she readily admits it: yes, she did it!
Under a screen full of question marks, Mi Shu packs her bags and runs.
Looking at the pocket dimension that came with her, Mi Shu recalls the thousand-square-meter plot of barren land her original character received.
Why get mixed up in all that melodrama? Isn't it better to lie flat?
Mi Shu comes from a future interstellar society where everyone is born with an ability. But her space ability, which is only useful for growing plants, is utterly pointless. She spent her whole life hoping for recognition, but never got it.
Mi Shu gave up. She decided to lie flat.
After all, in this era, having a space ability is more than enough!
Later, while eating chilled, juicy watermelon and huge strawberries on a scorching summer day, Mi Shu receives an invitation to appear on a lifestyle variety show.
Mi Shu: ?
Nope.
But the cancellation fee is as high as 100 million...
Fine. It's just a change of scenery for lying flat.

Mi Shu never expected that readily admitting she'd done something wrong would earn her praise.
Netizens: You're so charming! You've got my attention!
When they first hear Mi Shu will appear on the variety show Enjoying Life,
Netizens: A slow-paced variety show? No way. With Mi Shu there, she'll definitely cause trouble! Will there be a fight?
But Mi Shu puts on a masterclass in lying flat. She uses all her cunning to outwit the director and get out of doing things, leaving everyone laughing and shaking their heads.
Netizens: What kind of slow-paced variety show is this? It's a laugh-until-you-spit-out-your-food show!
And so, the more Mi Shu lies flat, the more popular she gets.
Later, videos of Mi Shu picking the enormous strawberries, oversized cherries, and rosy peaches she grew herself go viral.
[How is her skin still so fair after working under the blazing sun?!]
[Ahhh, her face is killing me!]
[Wait, are these fruits even real? Strawberries the size of fists? Cherries as big as apples?]
[Not gonna lie, she makes them look so delicious. I want some!!]
Netizens flood the comments: Mi Shu, please post a link so we can buy your fruit!
Even fruit farmers are spamming the comments: We'll pay a fortune for seeds!!
Finally, the experts show up too: Join the Agricultural Research Institute. Getting a patent is within reach!
And so, watermelons that whiten your skin, strawberries that clear up acne, corn that helps your hair grow... all make their debut!
Netizens weep with gratitude: Thank you, Mi Shu, for giving us access to fruit, vegetables, and good health!
Mi Shu becomes the first celebrity in the entertainment industry to make a name for herself by applying for agricultural patents!
An utterly satisfying, feel-good story!
