[Main story complete. Extras updating slowly. Next up: The Male Lead Is a Little Green [Quick Transmigration]. Please add it to your library =3=] Chi Zige only ever plays tragic second male leads, helping the male leads triumph in the name of justice. Shot through with arrows, burned alive, torn apart by horses... His fans were so tormented they launched a group protest: Please, Director, just let our Gege die quickly for once. He's about to die, then the heroine saves him, then they make him take a knife for the male lead. He wants to die, but they won't let him. In the end, he's tortured half to death, and the male and female leads even have a baby before you finally let our Gege die. This is inhumane! The heroine is kind-hearted but sharp-tongued, with a mistress's face. The producer is a goofball, the director's a fool, and Chi Zige is a nutcase. Excerpt: Chi Zige sat on a hillside, swinging a shepherd's crook as he watched the noisy crowd in the distance. His eyes fell on familiar clothing, and memories buried deep in his heart stirred once more: a noble young master, a cold-blooded eunuch, now the world's biggest joke. "What do you mean he's not showing up on set? Cut him out of all his scenes, then! And he wants a thirty-million fee? Wei Ze thinks he's some kind of hot commodity? He's got the nerve to pull this on me? Sue him with the contract and make him pay up!" The producer slammed his phone to the ground. "Hey, we can find someone suitable to play Young Master Chu Qi for just three hundred thousand," the director said, turning the producer's attention toward Chi Zige. Chi Zige was baffled. Why were these people looking at him? He swung his crook and drove the sheep off to graze somewhere else. "Brilliant! What a swing. You can tell he's trained. That cool, melancholy air is exactly what Young Master Chu Qi is like. Young Master Chu Qi gets shot through with arrows, and this guy would be perfect for the role." The producer pictured Young Master Chu Qi being tortured. The audience would be heartbroken, and he would be thrilled. With those tearjerking scenes, their show was sure to be a hit. "Thirty million versus three hundred thousand. That's a bargain!" The director was pleased too. This would save them a huge sum. He was a genius. The producer and director tricked and coaxed Chi Zige into signing a contract. And so the torture trio was born. Chi Zige's mission was to torment the second male lead to death and make the male lead shine, bringing tears to countless young women's eyes.
