Shang Jingyan wakes up in the interstellar era and quickly realizes—this world is weird.

System: “Wait… WHAT?! This works too?!”
Viewer A: “I only watch romance shows… Wait, horror is actually amazing?!”

“I’m developing a game.”

“She created countless works, all to deliver a single message—”
“I will awaken your nightmares. So scream for me. Let your heart race!”
