How Should I Know?

WB @ August Lantern Fire

Qi Yue, an obscure author barely known to anyone, had carved out a niche for himself on Little Chick Literature by writing wish-fulfillment stories.

One day, while haggling with his editor over the manuscript he was supposed to submit, he was struck by lightning.

Yes, literally struck by lightning.

He transmigrated.

He transmigrated into the novel he'd written. As the author himself, with the plot in hand, he should have been able to come and go freely in this world of political scheming, but...

"Brother, did you transmigrate too? You're an author as well? That's great! So that means we..."

"Don't get your hopes up. I don't know how it ends either."

Because he'd only written a few thousand words of the opening, for crying out loud!

As Qi Yue ran from the pursuers behind him, tears streamed down his face. Damn it, he should've written more while he had the chance. Then at least he wouldn't be so helpless after transmigrating, even if he ended up as cannon fodder!
