The Passerby Girl Wins by Going Crazy

My new novel, Being a Crowd Favorite Is No Match for the Imperial Exams, is coming soon! QAQ The blurb is below.

Blurb for this novel:

Qiao Yun transmigrated into a campus romance about youthful angst, becoming an ordinary girl who takes the blame for the heroine.

The heroine gets to stay spotless and free of blame, and can even flirt with other people's fiances from time to time. But Qiao Yun, who had simply been kind enough to help her, gets made the scapegoat.

People maliciously slander her, lock her in a restroom and pour dirty water over her, and eventually break her leg, driving her away from the stage she once took pride in...

The heroine sobs like a white lotus: "I never thought my offhand words would hurt you. I really didn't mean to..."

Qiao Yun: "You 'didn't mean to' on purpose, didn't you? Quit pretending, old hag. Hope you and that scumbag are stuck together for life."

Then there are her awful relatives, her useless scumbag of a father, and the elders who look on coldly, as though her life doesn't matter.

As if saying she was just too weak would make everything all right.

When the Side Character System tells her to be patient and avoid challenging the Chosen One's good fortune, Qiao Yun chooses to go off the rails.

The original owner was too kind. If she has no morals, nobody can use them to manipulate her.

Once she throws caution to the wind, the scumbags hiding in the shadows, ready to destroy her with public opinion, have no choice but to come out into the open and reveal their true colors.

Qiao Yun: Being a lunatic feels amazing.

The Side Character System trembles with anger: You're having a great time, but the world's plot is falling apart.

Qiao Yun doesn't care in the least. If the Chosen One isn't worthy of her position, then why not pick someone else to be the heroine?

Besides, did she ever say she would cooperate with the missions?

The best thing to do is be yourself.

Coming Soon: Being a Crowd Favorite Is No Match for the Imperial Exams

Modern office worker Shen Zhaoshuang transmigrates into a fictional dynasty just after the turmoil of war has settled. She's born into an ordinary farming family, premature and disguised as a boy.

The good news is that she gets a supermarket System. As long as she doesn't do anything reckless, she'll have plenty of supplies for the rest of her life and can lie flat.

The bad news is that she's so frail she could kick the bucket at any moment, and her relatives, who still live together as one household, are watching her like hawks.

Her father is the second son in his family. Her mother has two daughters and a son. Her eldest sister was married off as a concubine to a wealthy old man in town, her second sister was betrothed to a butcher's foolish son, and her third brother was pushed over by their eldest uncle's child and left mentally disabled.

If she seems ordinary, she'll probably be exploited until she dies.

Once Shen Zhaoshuang figures this out, she takes out some firecrackers for the New Year and a huge outdoor searchlight from the supermarket to fake the appearance of an immortal descending to earth and bring her relatives to heel.

She also gives them a warning from time to time.

Her relatives: We've learned our lesson. Please spare us.

After she recovers, she resolves to change her fate through studying!

With her modern knowledge and diligent practice, Shen Zhaoshuang stands out at school and maintains her image as a prodigy.

She passes the district and provincial examinations and becomes a student of the Emperor. The fate of her family and herself will no longer be controlled by others.

She can study and run a business at the same time. So what if she's a lowly commoner from the marketplace? She can still rise straight to the top!

Life is going wonderfully, until Shen Zhaoshuang accidentally discovers that she's actually the real daughter of a marquis's household, switched at birth. And the fake young master is none other than the useless pretty boy at her academy who picks fights with her every day?

This world is ridiculously melodramatic, but things get even more melodramatic after her identity is revealed

Her childhood friend, who has been close to her since they were little, shyly confesses his feelings. After she turns him down, he retreats behind the scenes, determined to become the man behind a successful woman.

The reserved young master of an aristocratic family says haughtily, "Only you are worthy of being my rival."

The gentle, scheming, sickly Crown Prince gazes at her tenderly. "Having one confidante in this life is enough for me."

The rough, imposing general, who made a name for himself at a young age, sneers, "Scholars are all weaklings," but helps her despite his words.

Even her friend's younger sister, doted on by her whole family, hints that she wants to pick a husband for herself at the examination results board.

And her childhood friend, a girl who knows she's a woman, still wants to be her "wife."

Has she really reached the point where both men and women fall for her?

No, no. They're all obstacles on her path to the imperial examinations. Don't even think about seducing her with your good looks. What's romance compared to the imperial exams?

Theme: Live your own life well
