Synopsis

Yan Xunan was the real youngest son of the Yan family, switched at birth.

After being brought back to the Yan family, he carefully tried to please everyone.

But his father thought he was malicious and grew increasingly disappointed in him.

His eldest brother assumed he was trying to drive out the “little brother” he had cared for over twenty years.

When the fake young master targeted and framed him, everyone chose to look the other way.

Despised by everyone, Yan Xunan died in an unfinished building.

Only after his death did he learn that he was merely a disposable tool character in a novel.

His role was to highlight the protagonist: “innocent and kind, loved by everyone.”

And he was the scapegoat, hated by all, a mere tool.

Yan Xunan refused to accept that he was nothing more than a soulless tool in a book.

After being reborn, he changed his ways and stopped fawning over people as he had in his previous life.

When a rotten classmate spread rumors about him, he sent him straight to prison.

He repaid the fake young master’s schemes in kind, and then some.

He showed no mercy to the fools who went out of their way to make trouble for him.

Breaking free of the role he’d been assigned, he lived life on his own terms.

His eldest brother suddenly came to his senses and tried to make amends.

His parents began to feel sorry for all the grievances he had suffered over the years.

Yan Xunan waved them off. He no longer cared for their belated concern.

But...

Why did someone he’d had absolutely no connection with in his previous life keep appearing in front of him?

He went to a hotel and ran into the man, who was staying right across from him.

He went back to school, and the man happened to pass by his classroom window.

Even when he got into a car accident, the man stepped out of the car across the road.

Yan Xunan: So are we really fated to keep running into each other?

Li Sizhuo: Have you considered the possibility that I’ve been planning this for a long time?

There are countless great stories out there. No need to tell anyone when you drop one!

[Happy reading]
