Luo Xingyan is a Beta idol. After signing on for a variety show, he suddenly realizes that he's a minor villain in a sweet entertainment-industry romance novel.
The main couple, a top and a bottom, will become hugely popular on the variety show and rise to become the industry's top-tier star CP, while Luo Xingyan tries to seduce the male lead top, gets cursed out by the couple's fans and shippers, leaves the industry, and eventually dies by suicide, depressed.
Luo Xingyan suddenly awakens to his situation and gains the ability to read minds. "...Whatever. I'm done playing along."

On the variety show, Luo Xingyan is supposed to be a foil and a supporting villain who helps the main couple. Instead, he gives up and does whatever he wants.
A top-tier idol gives his fans a heartfelt declaration of love on the show: "The only people I love are my fans. They're everything to me..."
But Luo Xingyan sees at least a dozen women flash through the idol's mind and rolls his eyes. "Delete those dozen women from your phone before you say that."
The idol becomes a sensation overnight, then gets canceled just as quickly.
A veteran actor who cultivates the image of a devoted husband speaks tenderly to his wife on the show: "I had nothing when I was young. She gave me her all and supported me..."
But Luo Xingyan sees him thinking about another young, beautiful actress and looks disgusted. "She gave you everything, and you went and found a mistress. Don't you have any shame?"
The veteran actor gets kicked out with nothing, and everyone turns against him.
A company boss comes on the show in person and talks about how hard it was to start his business: "Thanks to everyone's support, the company managed to stay afloat."
Luo Xingyan gives a cold laugh and calls the police on the spot.
The boss ends up behind bars, reminiscing about the good old days, while countless young stars are grateful to Luo Xingyan.
At first, all the fans join forces to boycott Luo Xingyan, calling him an attention-seeker who mistakes being a contrarian for being honest, and saying he deserves to fade into obscurity.
Later, Luo Xingyan becomes a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry, an expert at spotting scumbags, and insurance against a celebrity scandal... He wins countless fans' affection. Upright seniors praise his noble character, industry power players commend him for cleaning up the scene, and he becomes a sensation both in and out of the industry.
Luo Xingyan looks utterly baffled. Wasn't he supposed to cause a scene, then leave the industry in disgrace? How come he keeps getting more famous?

After learning how his story is supposed to end, Luo Xingyan lets loose, talks back to everyone, and refuses to put up with any scumbag.
When he sees the aloof film emperor make a surprise appearance on the show, Luo Xingyan narrows his eyes. "All looks, no substance! I'll expose your true colors!"
The next second, Luo Xingyan's eyes fly open and he stares in shock.
The film emperor, rumored online to have a fear of Omegas, has a stern face and a distant expression, looking like he thinks he's above everyone else.
[He's so cute. I want to fill him up, mark him, and cover him with my pheromones.]
Luo Xingyan, looking horrified: I'm a Beta!!!
Later, Luo Xingyan clutches his neck, eyes brimming with tears. "Nobody told me that if a Beta gets marked too many times, he can undergo a second differentiation into an Omega!"
Reader advisory: 1. A free-spirited, give-up-and-go-with-the-flow Beta bottom x an Alpha top who's cold on the outside but thinks about his wife all the time
2. No logic, just have fun
