When the Protagonist Gong Transmigrates into Fanfiction

Two people transmigrate into a book: a poor, awkward beauty who loves to complain, gong x a laid-back rich second young master with a straightforward, puppy-like personality, shou. Beautiful gong, handsome shou.

Warning: This was the first story I wrote after deciding to become a novelist. It's both an embarrassing early work and a treasured favorite, so I'm reposting it here.

I'm currently updating the historical fantasy master-disciple story next door: a naturally sweet shizun gong x a green-tea villainous Demon Lord shou. I update reliably, so come check it out ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)✧

"Why did you transmigrate into a book?"

"...To break up a CP."

Lu Xingchen, a famously washed-up celebrity of the modern era, became the hottest topic of his life thanks to his glorious achievement of breaking up his former bandmate's CP!

Before the breakup: Having a wife like that is your good fortune!

After the breakup: I'm taking my baby with me. Scumbags need not apply!

A big shot in the fanfiction world broke down and stopped updating. Their resentment dragged Lu Xingchen, the person who'd broken up the CP, into a fanfic world that bizarrely fused fantasy and reality.

To his surprise, Lu Xingchen discovered that he wasn't the only one breaking up a CP. There was also Fu Yan, a laid-back young master from a family so rich he'd lost count of how many generations they'd been wealthy, who was losing money raising pigs and running a pig farm.

The young master was unbelievably lazy, and kept messing up the mission to return home. Lu Xingchen was on the verge of a breakdown. He wanted to go home!

"Why did you break up the CP?"

"Because it annoyed me. Why, isn't that enough?"

Fu Yan, the family's second young master, was born to be a burden. He never did anything useful and was always changing jobs. When he switched careers once again to become a paparazzo, he discovered that he had a CP with someone from a variety show who'd come from an idol survival show.

In the fanfic, he loved the other person with an obsessive, all-consuming passion, and was a top-tier bloodsucker. In reality, their only connection was that a variety show had once used his pig farm as a location, and they'd met briefly.

Still, this world was pretty great, and there was a fictional character he couldn't take his eyes off of to serve as his rival in love.

"I transmigrated, so what? Do I really have to go back?"

Fu Yan wasn't interested in the heartthrob the world had paired him with. Instead, he set his sights on Lu Xingchen, who was wearing the fictional character's appearance.

[Things to Know Before Reading]

1. One-on-one romance, happy ending, mutual devotion, shou pursues gong, and both have the potential to become lovesick.

2. No real-life inspirations. The fanfic within the story is completely made up.

3. The plot is fantastical and includes [fantasy elements]. After transmigrating, there is no [entertainment industry content].

4. If the reading experience isn't good, it's all the author's fault. This is my first story, and I lack experience. I hope you have fun!

Theme: Break things down to build them anew, and find redemption in each other.
