Please stop making up rumors, it's disgusting.] [New story coming soon: I Really Didn't Mean to Be a Scumbag! A ridiculous, melodramatic story.

If anything comes up, I'll post a notice! Ji Mian transmigrated into a popular danmei novel and became a cannon-fodder stand-in for the universally adored protagonist. In the novel, the cannon-fodder stand-in offended the protagonist-bottom and was killed with a single slash by one of the villainous big shots in the running. After transmigrating, Ji Mian looked at the villainous big shot, who was only five years old. Ji Mian: Ah, so pitiful. Why should a cannon-fodder stand-in make things hard for a tool of the plot? When he saw the villainous big shot being bullied in elementary school: Ji Mian: Ah, so pitiful. I'll help him out. When he saw the villainous big shot being framed in middle school: Ji Mian: Ah, so pitiful. I'll put in a good word for him. When he saw the villainous big shot grow into a powerful man and draw closer and closer to him: The man's eyes were dark and his voice hoarse. "Ah, I'm so pitiful. Big brother, help me..." #Why make things hard for a cannon-fodder stand-in when you can make them hard for a plot device? # Synopsis two (from the original novel's top's perspective): To Li Jue, Ji Mian was just a disposable stand-in. The young man leapt from a tall building for his sake, giving up his life so Li Jue could be with the one he loved. While Ji Mian was alive, Li Jue had looked down on him, used him, and finally tossed him aside like trash. After Ji Mian died, Li Jue was shocked, devastated, and ultimately consumed by unbearable grief. Only after being reborn did Li Jue realize he truly loved Ji Mian. He swore to treat Ji Mian well and never let him down again. Then he saw Ji Mian feeding Fu Chenyu. Ji Mian walking Fu Chenyu to school. Ji Mian helping Fu Chenyu fight. Fu Chenyu holding Ji Mian down and making out with him. Li Jue: ??? Didn't Fu Chenyu kill Ji Mian in his previous life? #You bastard Fu Chenyu, give me back my wife! # #You killed my wife and stole her from me. This is unforgivable! # He returned from hell, ready to descend into an abyss ten thousand feet deep and risk his life all over again, if that's what it took to have Ji Mian. *Content warnings: The original novel's top is reborn and wants to win back his spouse, but he runs into the bottom, who has transmigrated into a book. (Where did my wife go??? Fu Chenyu only loves Ji Mian, who transmigrated from another world. He has no romantic history with Ji Mian in his previous life, or with the original Ji Mian. (I'm just a killer with no feelings.jpg) *Little fox top (Fu Chenyu) × extremely cautious, survival-minded little rabbit (Ji Mian) *Younger top. Repeat after me: Fu Chenyu is the top, Fu Chenyu is the top, Fu Chenyu is the top, Fu Chenyu is the top. *Your wife is great, but she's mine now.jpg -Cover art by Xiao Lu, thank you~ Clarifications in the comments: 1. [Regarding the negative reviews in the comments: I've explained this repeatedly. The pinned post on my Weibo, @ChaiMenTingWenQuanFei, contains a statement, apology, clarification, and outcome regarding the incident involving a disturbance at a hospital. Such incidents are shameful and deplorable. I do not support them, and I'm certainly not trying to whitewash them.] 2. [I'm not a "shrimp" and I don't follow celebrities. (If I did, my idol would definitely flop.) I've never followed Xiao Zhan, never spent a cent on him, and only posted one related Weibo in January, which I've since deleted. My interest lasted all of five minutes; I stopped following related news before February 27, let alone after 227. Please stop harassing me and my readers.] 3. [This novel isn't based on real people. Please don't spread rumors.] The next new story coming soon: I Really Didn't Mean to Be a Scumbag! Tang Mingxi transmigrates into a novel about a useless male lead who rises to success, becoming the male lead's first wife. In the novel, to humiliate the male lead, his first wife torments and beats him in every possible way. In the end, the male lead breaks her arms and legs, throws her into the sea, and leaves her to be torn apart by a thousand sharks. Tang Mingxi, after transmigrating: ...Obviously, I have to hurry up and cling to the male lead's coattails! Treat him well, feed him, give him clothes, and become the moonlight in his heart! And yet: "Reporting to Young Master Tang: Ye Heng has been kneeling in the blizzard for a day and a night!" "Reporting to Young Master Tang: Ye Heng has been hanging at the gate for three days and three nights!" "Reporting to Young Master Tang: Ye Heng went to see that little tramp Tang Nuo again!" #Is there really no way to save this guy? # Synopsis two At Qingluo Bay, Tang Mingxi and Tang Nuo were kidnapped at the same time. The kidnapper pointed a gun at Tang Mingxi. Behind him were a ten-thousand-foot cliff and the swirling deep sea. "Young Master Ye, choose one: your wife or your lover." Tang Mingxi's lips trembled. "Ye Heng, I can't swim." Ye Heng glanced up, indifferent. "Tang Nuo, come here." He didn't even look at Tang Mingxi. Overcome with despair, Tang Mingxi leapt from the cliff and plunged into the sea. As he died, he saw Ye Heng's briefly stunned expression turn to one of utter devastation. Long afterward, someone saw the all-powerful CEO of the Ye Group in Jianjing trembling on his knees. He called out the name of his first wife again and again, his expression wild with grief, his voice choked with tears of blood. Meanwhile Tang Mingxi, who had swum twenty kilometers after jumping into the sea and made it to shore, was in tears of joy. Hahahahahaha! I'm finally free! #Faking your death feels great, and it keeps feeling great! # #Whoever wants to be Mrs. Ye can have the job. I'm out! # *Is your heart made of stone? top × That's right, my heart is made of stone. bottom *Brooding, twisted yandere × carefree optimist with no heart *Includes a groveling, win-his-wife-back arc Theme: Where there's a will, there's a way!
