The Reborn Fake Heir of a Wealthy Family Rises to Fame

Ye Qianyu is handsome, can sing and act, yet despite years in show business, he has countless antis. No matter how hard he tries, he never earns the recognition of those around him.

Only after he dies does he learn that he is a cannon-fodder fake young master in a wealthy-family power struggle novel. His only purpose is to make the real young master's aura shine brighter:

When the real young master is found, he's kicked out of the house.

When the real young master enters the entertainment industry, he's reduced to a pretty face.

Even worse, when he tries to save the real young master, his adoptive mother pushes him off a cliff with her own hands. His adoptive father witnesses everything but watches coldly. Even his older brother, who promised to protect him when they were children, is overseas and doesn't answer his call...

As death consumes him, Ye Qianyu falls into utter despair. His only regret is that he never got to say goodbye to his one and only fan online.

Reborn in the year the real young master returns home, Ye Qianyu stops hoping for love from those around him and takes the initiative to leave the Ye family.

He hides alone in a rented apartment, carefully finds his fan's account on his phone, and tentatively sends her a song.

His fan is probably a gentle girl. She doesn't know him yet, but replies politely: [That's beautiful. Keep it up.]

Later, when the song is released, it really does become an overnight hit, racking up billions of plays.

Ye Qianyu returns to the entertainment industry, and his fan becomes his think tank.

Ye Qianyu: [Is this script any good? qwq]

His fan: [Not bad. Be careful on set.]

When his new drama airs, Ye Qianyu becomes an instant sensation and a newly risen top-tier star, driving fans across the internet wild.

Later, Ye Qianyu eagerly says: [This dating show's paying 50 million. Once I've earned enough, can I come see you?]

But this time, his fan replies seriously with just two words: [No way.]

Ye Qianyu is confused, until the next day...

The dating show's guest lineup is announced. Ye Chaoshen, the eldest young master of the Ye family and Ye Qianyu's older brother, who was supposed to be overseas, appears on camera, travel-worn.

At the same time, his fan's account location gets closer and closer.

Ye Qianyu: ?

His fan is camera-shy, and Ye Qianyu doesn't want to deal with Ye Chaoshen anymore.

So when the dating show begins, viewers see this:

Ye Qianyu sits by the bed with a cold expression, while the true head of the Ye family kneels on one knee to put on his shoes. His movements are so practiced, you'd think he'd done it a thousand times...

The CP fans go completely wild: "Aaaaah! Childhood friends! Reunited after years apart! Back together after a breakup! I'm in!!!"

[Bonus scene]

The dating show's camera is covered by a suit jacket. Wrapped in a quilt and curled up on the bed, Ye Qianyu talks in his sleep: "Ye Chaoshen, there was so much blood. I was in so much pain. Why didn't you come save me..."

Ye Chaoshen kisses his forehead with all the tenderness in the world. "I'm sorry. I came too late."

[Notes]

1. The seme and uke are unrelated by blood and aren't registered in the same household.

2. One-on-one romance, both are virgins, and the seme's identity is revealed.

3. I hope to write a warm story about healing and redemption.
