Wen Bai woke up to find he had transmigrated into a book.
He’d even become the notorious troublemaker hated by the whole internet on a boy-band survival show.
He was stunningly beautiful, with an androgynous quality that blurred the line between male and female. His first appearance on the show sparked intense discussion and sent him straight to the top of the trending list.
But his soaring popularity also brought a storm of jealous, vicious haters.
When his colored contact lens slipped on camera, haters claimed he was rolling his eyes at a teammate.
When he was interviewed and asked about his ideal type, haters said he was secretly hiding a girlfriend.
Even the trailer was maliciously edited to make him the show's untouchable favorite, hated by everyone!
Wen Bai was on the verge of tears. Who else transmigrated into a book only to get treated this unfairly?
Just as he was utterly despairing and preparing to announce his withdrawal from the show in front of everyone, so he could get away from all the drama, his golden finger, the “sky screen,” finally appeared, delayed by a System glitch.
[Congratulations, Wen Bai, on making his debut as the center of the group on the show Boy Band Planet!]
His manager who’d been suppressing him, his agency that had tried to sabotage his chances, the production team that had maliciously edited the footage, and the teammates who’d deliberately tripped him up were all dumbstruck.
Wen Bai stared in disbelief. “Me?”
From that moment on, the plot became completely uncontrollable.
[Congratulations, Wen Bai, on landing a luxury brand endorsement!]

Passersby who had once criticized him everywhere on gossip forums became fans one after another. Even his fan-support signs were covered in “Wife” and “Baby.”
His manager, who had once looked down on him, now wanted to put this money tree on a pedestal.
And his fellow contestants, who had once ignored him, now flocked to him like stray dogs who’d caught the scent of meat, groveling at his feet for a single glance.
[Hot topic on the forums: You washed-up nobodies, stop using our baby to promote your ships!]
Faced with olive branches from all sides and undisguised affection, Wen Bai was at his wits’ end. It’s not like I wanted to become everyone’s dream guy!
He didn’t want to get involved in the cutthroat entertainment industry either. He only planned to stick it out until the show ended, then quit the business and go home to live a quiet life.
But he never expected the perennial runner-up, who had always been a step behind him on the show, to stagger into his room one night reeking of alcohol and pin him onto the bed without a word.
The other man’s hot, alcohol-scented breath brushed Wen Bai’s cheek, soaked in an unspoken desire.
“Want to give me a try? I’m better than all of them.”
Wen Bai only wanted to tell him: idols aren’t allowed to secretly drink!
Wei Xu had only been scouted by a talent agent while out shopping, then somehow wound up being sent to take part in some so-called survival show.
He didn’t particularly care whether he debuted or not. He only wanted to feel he’d done right by his fans.
He hadn’t felt much of anything for Wen Bai, either. He’d just thought he was a poor guy being framed by the production team and the agency.
Then the sky screen appeared, and Wen Bai rose to fame overnight. Men flocked to his feet, all hoping to get a single glance from him. The production team even respectfully moved him into a private dorm, ending his life as Wei Xu’s roommate.
Gazing at the empty room, Wei Xu finally realized the dark and despicable thoughts lurking deep in his heart.
If you’re the sun, then shine on me, too.
Reader's guide:
1. Boy-band survival show in the entertainment industry. No real-life inspirations! No real-life inspirations! No real-life inspirations! Don’t apply this to real people! Important things are said three times.
2. Gentle, beautiful, adorable, sun-like darling who’s loved by everyone x aloof, dark, extremely possessive, jealous top.
3. The sky screen is a cheat. The darling is very much a heartthrob, but only returns the top’s affection. Everyone else is just a side character.
4. Neither half of the couple will suffer. May this couple be together forever.
Theme: Never give up.
