Cheng Yuechen was sensitive and insecure, as Xue Chilan, who had known him since childhood, understood well.
When his biological father refused to acknowledge him and the childhood friend who had built a successful career was thriving, Cheng Yuechen had accomplished nothing. He could barely get by without his friend's support. His overwhelming inferiority complex drove him down a path of no return.
He sold his soul and watched a stranger take his place in life, stirring up the world and rising to the top. But when he turned against his friend, Cheng Yuechen regretted it, yet could do nothing. Under their agreement, as long as the outcome was what he wanted, the process didn't matter.
Cheng Yuechen changed so much that even Xue Chilan no longer recognized him. He would do anything to achieve his goals. Xue Chilan was ashamed to associate with him and suspected that the work he was writing wasn't his own, reporting him for plagiarism without any proof.
Only after Xue Chilan was disgraced did he learn that this was a novel about a heaven-defying protagonist, and he was merely a minor boss. The real Cheng Yuechen had disappeared long ago. So where was Xue Chilan supposed to go from here...
A melodramatic angst novel. I just wanted to write the story in my heart. My writing isn't great. If it hits a nerve, feel free to click away.
The author is fragile-hearted, so please be gentle. Updates are irregular.
