Becoming the Leading Man in Period Dramas [Quick Transmigration]

Novel blurb:

He Cun is a cultivator, and things were going just fine for him in the cultivation world. But all it took was a nap for him to get bound to a System that makes villains in period novels transmigrate into books?

Looking at the tragic fates of all those villains in the story,

He Cun shuddered and decided to abandon those terrible old paths and help them turn their lives around...

A skit from one world:

Neighbor A: That man. One look at his face and you can tell he's a womanizer!

Neighbor B: I agree!

They never expected He Cun to be devoted in love, refined enough for the drawing room and skilled in the kitchen, treating his wife with the utmost care...

Neighbors A and B: That stings

Skit two:

Female lead: He Cun, I'm going to be with him. Thank you for loving me. I won't forget it...

Original host: Go ahead. Just know that no matter what, I'll be right here waiting for you... (Later, desperate to grow stronger and take down the male lead, he went down a path of no return...)

He Cun: Go on. A mutt and a bitch belong together forever!

Content warnings: 1. There is a fortune-telling scene at the start, but it isn't the main focus.

2. Some original hosts have flaws, which the male lead will correct after transmigrating into the book.

The author's new male-lead-focused novel, The 1970s: The Male Supporting Character Refuses to Be a Doormat, is now underway. Please click into the author's profile and add it to your collection

New novel blurb: Shen Yunhe was an upstanding young man from the 21st century. One day, he transmigrated into a book, landing in an inspirational period novel as the meek, long-suffering male supporting character, the male lead's stepbrother.

A month ago, the original host's mother had just passed away. His father remarried, and not only did he bring home a new wife, she came with a younger brother...

Stepmother: Your brother lost his father when he was little, so he can't bear to be away from me. You're such an honest, considerate boy. I've already signed you up to go to the countryside as an educated youth...

Once he arrived in the village...

Team leader: The educated youths who were weeding the cornfield have all left. You're always so dependable and hardworking, so do the rest of the work too...

Female educated youth who came with him: Educated Youth Shen, I know you're a good person... The child isn't yours, but if you marry me, the child will still call you Dad...

Best buddy: Qinqin and I are together now. You always put your friends first. Friends are like your limbs, girlfriends are like clothes. Qinqin and I truly love each other. You'll give us your blessing, right?

Meanwhile, the male lead who stayed in the city was clever and ambitious. He landed a job at a state-run store, and later used the money the original host earned from working to finish college...

In the book, the original host received just one line of praise:

My stepbrother was an honest, decent man. I'm grateful for everything he did for me...

After reviewing the original host's life, Shen Yunhe had only one thing to say: What the hell, I'm done serving you people!

[The male lead has a Wine Immortal System and will reach the pinnacle of life through brewing!]
