Dual male leads + entertainment industry + fake and real young masters + transmigration into a book + face-slapping. A versatile top-tier star and the real young master as the shou × a possessive villainous big shot who dotes on his wife as the gong
Ning Wu'an is a versatile ace and top-tier star. He opens his eyes to find himself a nobody in the entertainment industry, infamous for scandals and holding the script of a cannon-fodder character. He is the real young master, whose only purpose in life is to serve as a foil to the fake young master, the family's beloved favorite.
In the original story, after Ning Wu'an is brought back to the Ning family, he tries desperately to make himself noticed and repeatedly makes a fool of himself. In the end, the Ning family kicks him out. After he repeatedly frames the real young master, the protagonist and the villain join forces against him, and he dies a miserable death in a rented apartment.
Ning Wu'an: Give me a moment to sort this out.
Once he does, Ning Wu'an realizes that most of the cannon fodder plot has already played out, and his sacrificial ending is fast approaching.
Right now, Ning Wu'an is at a banquet his agent forced him to attend. He feels the people around him eyeing him with a mix of greed and contempt, raises his wineglass, and fixes his sights on the book's greatest villain, Ye Huaiqing.
“Mr. Ye, could I make a deal with you?”
At first, Ye Huaiqing thinks Ning Wu'an is a spy sent by someone else. Later, he decides the little guy is good-looking and has a personality to his liking, so he figures he might as well keep him around.
He never expected that, before he knew it, the little guy would become a top-tier star and movie emperor, with a crowd of people coveting him.
Fans: Husband/Wife, I love you.
Ye Huaiqing grips Ning Wu'an by the waist and pins him against the door. “Be good. Who are they calling that?”
Ning Wu'an blushes and his heart races as he's kissed. In a hoarse voice, he presses close to the man's ear and coaxes him, “I'm yours.”
At first, I thought it was just an ordinary book, but as I read on, it touched me deeply by exploring topics such as human trafficking, Chinese science fiction, intangible cultural heritage, and human coexistence. It felt like watching a documentary film.
The characters are well-developed, but the plot moves a bit too fast and some details aren't explained clearly.
This book saved me when I was having a reading slump! It's so good, highly recommended!
I've only watched for a short while, but I can tell it's really good. It's not too much for me to claim the title of a long-time fan, right?
The author writes so well, keep it up! (ง•̀_•́)ง💕
