Fang Mubai has had a crush on his childhood friend for years, but Yan Chengyun is as straight as they come.
The nth+1 time Yan Chengyun received a love letter from another man, he couldn't even be bothered to glance at it. He tossed it into the trash in disgust.
"What a freak."
Fang Mubai happened to see the whole thing. It was like a bucket of ice water had been dumped over him. He realized right then that having a crush on a straight guy was pointless, and promptly cut off all contact between them.
When he woke up, he found himself inside a fanfic that had written him as a disposable extra.
In the story, the extra knew the male lead already had someone he cherished, yet still used their arranged engagement as an excuse to muscle his way in. After signing a marriage contract with the male lead, he kept sabotaging himself until the male lead grew sick of him and threw him out, leaving him homeless.
The problem was, the male lead was Yan Chengyun!

When Fang Mubai transmigrated into the book, the original character had landed both himself and the male lead in the hospital.
Having suffered enough from unrequited love in his previous life, Fang Mubai only wanted to take the money and leave before he got written off as an extra. So he readily produced a divorce agreement.
Yan Chengyun ignored it and lifted his bandaged arm, looking aggrieved. "Honey, my arm hurts."
Fang Mubai: "..."
After they were discharged, Yan Chengyun seemed to have hit his head and become a completely different person. He was considerate and gentle, tending to Fang Mubai in every way and doing everything a partner should. Fang Mubai repeatedly wondered if he had transmigrated into the wrong book.
Until one day, as he passed a private room, he heard Yan Chengyun's friend teasing him. "I hear your little drama queen asked for a divorce, and you refused. What, can't bear to pay the penalty for ending the marriage early?"
Yan Chengyun leaned against the back of his chair, looking gloomy. He said nothing, only swirling his glass, as though the guess had hit the mark.
Fang Mubai smiled lazily. So he was quite the actor.
So Fang Mubai decided to go all the way. He left the divorce agreement behind, packed his bags, and moved far away.
Who could have guessed that the very night he disappeared, Yan Chengyun would turn into a mad dog no one could restrain, tearing the place apart in a frenzy to find him?

Everyone knew that the second young master of the Yan family was cool and abstinent, utterly devoted to the person rumored to be his cherished first love.
But no one knew his secret.
Before transmigrating into the book, Yan Chengyun really had been in love with someone for years. But that person suddenly began to hate him and distance himself from him, and they never made up before Yan Chengyun died.
In his previous life, after learning of Fang Mubai's death, he became obsessive and violent, making sure everyone in the Fang family went to prison and paid the price, no matter the consequences.
When he woke up again, he was face to face with the person he had longed for. He used every trick he could think of to keep him by his side.
