Shen Yunhuang was once bound to a System tasked with saving sick, twisted villains. He was sent into a melodramatic romance novel called A Guide to Cultivating Universal Adoration, where he became the frail, beautiful master of Lu Tianque, a villain destined to turn dark.
To complete his mission and return to reality, he sweet-talked and tricked Lu Tianque, waiting for his corruption level to hit zero so he could bow out after a job well done.
At last, Lu Tianque's corruption level reached zero, and Shen Yunhuang successfully faked his own death.
But then the System suddenly malfunctioned, and he was dragged back into the novel.
Facing the now-darkened Lu Tianque, Shen Yunhuang awkwardly greeted him. “Actually, I was just joking with you.”
Lu Tianque smiled darkly. “Master, do you think I'll believe you this time?”
