After her college entrance exams, Su Yao's sister frantically recommended a smutty novel called \[Coincidentally, I Like You Too.\] Driven by a noble pursuit of knowledge, a desire to explore the unknown, and a thirst for academic innovation, Su Yao decided to peruse this work one dark and stormy night. The result? She transmigrated directly into the book. She became a nameless, faceless background character—and thank god for that!

And so, Su Yao—now living as Lin Zhinian—confidently befriends another "background character," Shen An. Everything is going perfectly until the day she personally hears the novel's original male lead call Shen An... "Brother" (Source: Bilibili Comics, translated)
