Xiao Xi never expected to die after binge-reading her favorite novel—
nor did she expect to wake up inside it.

Transmigrated into the body of a beautiful but doomed D-list actress, Xiao Xi becomes the very cannon fodder who dies in the first three chapters.
Her new life should have ended there.

Except this time… she wakes up with a mysterious System, the ability to steal luck, and the memories of a future that was never hers.

Worse—
the man fated to die before the novel even begins, the cold and untouchable CEO Gu Yanzhou, is suddenly alive… and reborn.

Two broken destinies collide.
One was supposed to vanish.
One was supposed to never exist.

And now both lives are spiraling off the original plot in ways the world cannot contain.

Thrown into a viral reality show, Xiao Xi becomes an overnight superstar while dodging jealous rivals, malicious systems, alternate timelines, and a corrupted entity obsessed with possessing her soul.

But through every trial, Gu Yanzhou stays by her side—
a man who remembers death,
who refuses to lose her again,
and who silently, fiercely, desperately loves her.

As Xiao Xi evolves from cannon fodder to Guardian, she discovers her true power:
not the System,
not the luck she steals,
but the love that can rewrite worlds.

Together, they will defy fate.
Fight corrupted systems.
Break every timeline.
And claim a future strong enough to hold both their hearts.

A future filled with passion, war, healing…
and eventually,
a family of their own.

A story of rebirth, power, destiny—and the love that conquers it all.

CHAPTER 73 – The Original Leads Stand With Her


The hacker, enraged by the sudden surge of power, lunged, a monstrous shadow crashing toward them before Xiao Xi could use her power.


Shen Yichen intercepted the blow, meeting the raw corruption with his golden protagonist light.


"Go!" he shouted, his voice strained by the immense force. 


"Finish this, Xiao Xi! We can hold him!"


Ling Qiuyue lifted her hands, sweat beading on her serene forehead, and created a dome of powerful, protective white energy around Xiao Xi and the collapsing Gu.


She gritted her teeth, her voice tight. 


"This barrier won't last long against that level of corruption… hurry!"


Xiao Xi stared at them, overwhelmed by the depth of their sacrifice.


"You're helping me even though—I displaced you. 


I am the reason you're losing your scripted destiny."


"I never wanted to be the only heroine, Xiao Xi. 


And your timeline offers the chance for all of us to have it."


Shen grunted as the hacker pressed his advantage.


"And fate is not a god," he muttered, his eyes blazing.


 "It's a faulty system run by an amateur. 


The hacker's corrupted form slammed against the barrier with terrifying force.


Cracks spread across Ling's protective dome.


 "Xiao Xi—the barrier is failing! Rewrite the world. 


Xiao Xi looked at Gu, who was flickering painfully, barely holding onto his digital form.


The system whispered, presenting the ultimate decision:


[Host must choose outcome of WORLD REWRITE.]


[Preserve original world structure and sacrifice Gu Yanzhou?]


[Or… MERGE paths and stabilize all existing variables?]


Xiao Xi breathed shakily, the fate of all reality resting on her choice.


The hacker shattered the barrier, sending shards of light everywhere.


Shen jumped instantly in front of Ling, shielding her from the blast.


Gu collapsed fully to one knee, his code dissolving.
