Lin Yuan'an transmigrated into a melodramatic danmei novel and became the vicious antagonist.
According to the plot, he had to humiliate the protagonist at an engagement banquet, frame him at work, and ultimately die miserably in prison. If he followed the antagonist’s path perfectly, he would get fifty million yuan and be able to go home.
The System issued its first task: splash red wine in the protagonist’s face and call him an illegitimate child.
Lin Yuan'an walked over with a wineglass and looked at the face so handsome it defied reason. His inner thoughts went wild:
Holy crap! He looks ten times better than he does on camera! No wonder he’s the protagonist!
[Sorry, sorry! Just bear with it. This is a workplace injury! It’s for the fifty million!]
Gu Yanzhou watched him without expression, then suddenly curled his lips into a smile.
He could hear Lin Yuan'an’s thoughts.
From that day on, the plot completely fell apart.
Lin Yuan'an: “Gu Yanzhou, you illegitimate child! Stay away from me!”
[He looks so handsome today… No, I’m the antagonist. I can’t fall for him!]
Gu Yanzhou: “Fine, I’ll go.” (He didn’t move an inch.)
Lin Yuan'an: “You framed me! I’ll ruin your reputation!”
[Why is he so good to me? Do I kind of like him?]
Gu Yanzhou: “Mm, you framed me.” (Handing him a knife.)
Later, the System issued the final task: [Die miserably in prison in exchange for fifty million yuan.]
Lin Yuan'an looked at the man who had stayed by his side for three lifetimes and suddenly didn’t want to leave.
“Gu Yanzhou, if I die…”
Gu Yanzhou lowered his head and kissed him.
“You won’t die,” he said. “In this life, I’ll protect you.”
