Wait, Something's Not Right

[People say writing this way gets you flamed, so I'm pausing to see how it goes (sob)]

Xu Jing transmigrates.

When she sees the lavish furnishings of her new home, she is terribly pleased with herself. Then she goes to the bathroom, sits down, and discovers that her anatomy has changed. She's a man now.

This is a bizarre world combining melodramatic romance with the crematorium trope. Worse still, unless she plays along with the plot, she'll be trapped endlessly repeating the same stretch of time.

Xu Jing takes three days to accept this, then realizes: being a backup option in a melodramatic romance is no easy feat!

First, you need an impressive family background. Next, you need to excel in both virtue and talent. Finally, you have to squeeze in time for a tragic love triangle: you love me, I don't love you; you don't love me, but I love you.

Before, Xu Jing had never wondered how the semes and ukes in novels managed to talk about everything under the sun and wallow in passionate hatred while still working hard to build successful careers. Now that it's happening to her, the semes' basic character settings make Xu Jing breathe like someone preparing for the college entrance exam.

As long as she's still breathing, she has to work and study like an ox.

Xu Jing: Is this place hell?

[Reader's Guide]

1. Each world is inspired by classic melodramatic romance from a different corner of the internet, and includes my own reading impressions (cough).

2. A woman transmigrates into a man's body. She's attracted to men, but is forced to play the seme in the plot (no romance, no sex scenes).

3. The focus is on snarkily watching the crazy men lose their minds. The overall tone is melodrama and heartbreak. Everyone is crazy except the heroine.

4. Characters' values don't represent the author's. I have unusual tastes, so if you don't like it, please click away instead of yelling at me, sob.

5. Includes a range of low-calorie tropes such as confinement, running away while pregnant, the crematorium trope, and he runs, he chases.

Theme: Emerge unsullied from the mud.
