Chapter 1: Transmigration into a Book

Chapter 1: Transmigration into a Book

Xiao Hua stood before the floor-length mirror, looking at the person in the reflection, her emotions indescribable.

The girl had thick black hair that reached her shoulders, delicate, well-defined features, with her eyebrows carefully groomed.

The body wrapped by the strappy nightgown was well-proportioned, and the exposed skin was fair and delicate, exuding a gentle aura.

Xiao Hua herself, however, had short hair, was untidy, and had abs and muscle lines formed from long-term training, clearly a striking beauty.

Though they shared the same facial features and height, they were clearly not the same person.

She had transmigrated into another body.

Xiao Hua closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

Despite the frustration with this infuriating situation, she could only quickly accept the reality and begin to observe her surroundings.

As a citizen of the twenty-first century with good psychological resilience, she couldn’t afford to falter!

Across from the mirror was a soft large bed, with an elegant desk and wardrobe placed next to it. On the desk lay a brand-new "Advanced Mathematics" textbook.

Looking down from the balcony, students in pairs or small groups could be seen, and terms like "advanced math" and "adviser" faintly drifted into Xiao Hua's ears.

So, she was currently in a university dormitory, and it was a single room.

Xiao Hua quickly understood her situation and let out a "wow" exclamation.

Having grown up poor, she had never seen such a luxurious university dormitory before.

Thinking of her past two years in military school, tears welled in Xiao Hua's eyes.

Xiao Hua's peripheral vision caught the pale green phone on the desk. She picked it up and unlocked it with her thumb.

She checked the date: 2:00 PM, March 31, 2121.

A century later.

She then clicked into the photo album and found the original owner's student ID photo.

Xiao Hua, born May 6, 2101, a freshman at C University.

Xiao Hua's heart skipped a beat, a sense of foreboding rising inside her.

She re-examined the identity information several times: Xiao Hua, C University, 2121...

She had just finished reading a post-apocalyptic novel a few days ago, which had a supporting female character named Xiao Hua.

Xiao Hua closed her eyes, feeling a speechlessness that could be described as "the door of speechlessness is opened by speechlessness's mother, and it’s a speechless situation to the extreme."

Should she be relieved that she survived the disaster? Or should she grieve over transmigrating into a post-apocalyptic novel?

Xiao Hua remembered the title of the book—"The Apocalypse's Only Favorite."

The Xiao Hua in the book was a dim-witted secondary character, the original owner of this body.

The original owner's mother and the male lead's father remarried, making them step-siblings, and the original owner changed her name to Xiao Hua.

When the apocalypse came, the male lead protected the original owner out of responsibility while falling for the female lead.

The previous protagonist had unspoken affection for the male lead, so she couldn't stand the sight of the female lead and kept sabotaging her.

She almost caused the male lead's team to be wiped out, and in the end, the male lead lost all hope, watching as the previous protagonist was left in a horde of zombies.

Xiao Hua's expression contorted slightly as she recalled her conversation with her roommate the previous night:

"Was her brain kicked by a donkey or crushed by a door? It's the end of the world, survival should be the top priority, yet she was busy causing trouble and plotting against others.

If she has a crush on the male lead, she should just confess! Bottling it up like that, isn't she afraid of getting sick from holding it in? Really..."

And then, the next day, she woke up in this body, precisely that of the brainless supporting character.

Was this the price for gossiping about someone?

Xiao Hua felt a slight heartache, unexpectedly transmigrating into a novel, and it was a post-apocalyptic one no less.

She clearly remembered the opening description from the book: on April Fool's Day, humanity was pulled into a massive prank by the heavens.

April Fool's Day, that meant...

Tomorrow! The end of the world!

Xiao Hua exclaimed, "Damn it!"

What a mess!

Xiao Hua slapped her forehead, forcing herself to calm down. There was no time to curse; she needed to get prepared.

Ending up in this damn book was bad enough, but at least there was still half a day left to prepare; not doing so would be a disgrace to her ancestors.

Xiao Hua quickly changed out of her pajamas, emptied the previous protagonist's backpack of books and stationery, leaving only the ID and student card, grabbed her backpack and phone, and rushed out of the dorm.

She had to get home!

A villa in the suburbs was safer than staying in the dorm!

Ten minutes later, Xiao Hua stood at the school gate, her heart sank as she saw three burly security guards and some privileged students being detained.

But for her escape plan, Xiao Hua had to force a smile while cursing inwardly.

She stepped forward and politely asked the security guard, "Excuse me, can I leave the campus?"

The security guard, seeing a polite student, replied kindly, "No. There are two fugitives out there, and the police are in the middle of a manhunt. The campus is temporarily closed."

Xiao Hua's heart sank as she repeated, "The whole campus?"

"Yes, young lady, you should go back. We can't do anything about it."

Not willing to give up, Xiao Hua opened the map on her phone and checked the other exits, the East Gate, West Gate, and even the North Gate, which took half an hour by campus bus.

She went to each one, only to find them all sealed off.

Suddenly, a guess flashed through Xiao Hua's mind.

Who knows if the fugitives outside were even human?

Unless it was a terrorist hideout, why would regular fugitives warrant sealing off even the North District, which was in the mountains?

Once this thought appeared in Xiao Hua's mind, it wouldn't leave, and it also killed her desire to escape by climbing the walls.

Sigh.

She'd take things one step at a time.

Since leaving was impossible for now, Xiao Hua wandered around the campus, secretly scouting and preparing for her escape amidst the chaos after the end of the world arrived.

As she was admiring the campus of the future, Xiao Hua witnessed a timeless scene.
