The Villainous Cannon Fodder Just Wants to Take It Easy [Book Transmigration]

Yu Cheng suddenly became self-aware and realized that he was nothing but a villainous cannon fodder character in some melodramatic novel where readers bet on love interests. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, yet somehow managed to squander a winning hand. In the end, the various tops joined forces to take him down, and he met a miserable fate. Yu Cheng: I'm done with this! Only later did everyone realize that the young master, who used to be head over heels for Chu Hanfeng, had suddenly changed. He quit the entertainment industry, stopped enthusiastically cheering Chu Hanfeng on, and couldn't even be bothered to watch a TV drama featuring him. Entertainment gossip accounts broke the story overnight: Rising star Yu Cheng hasn't been seen in ages. Is he being blacklisted? Netizens flooded the comments with congratulations: A cause for nationwide celebration! Chu Hanfeng won't have to deal with the entertainment industry's number-one pretty vase using him for publicity anymore! Yu Cheng, supposedly blacklisted, spent over half a month eating and drinking well. One day, he ran into Chu Hanfeng at a private banquet. Yu Cheng: "I was wrong before. I've seen through the world of mortals and am ready to take refuge in Buddha." Chu Hanfeng glanced at the fine food and wine in front of Yu Cheng, his expression dark. "What are you scheming now?" As he spoke, he leaned close and coaxed him in a whisper: "Can't I just be gentler next time?" Yu Cheng: "???" Gentler about what? Did he get the wrong script? Wasn't he supposed to refuse to give in, even if it killed him? And it wasn't just Chu Hanfeng. Everyone else started acting strangely too. Top 1, the award-winning actor: "Yu Cheng is the best in my heart." Top 2, the director: "This drama is a gift for him. He's my muse." Top 3, the CEO: "I know he doesn't love me, but that's okay. I can wait." The other rivals: "He should know that I have feelings for him." Yu Cheng: "???" Is this how people in the main-character circle usually scare off their romantic rivals? Even the netizens had taken a strange turn: "Aww, when is our baby coming back? We'll sell everything we own to support you!!!" Yu Cheng: "..." He stared at the script in his hands, deep in thought. - Everyone said that Chu Hanfeng, born into a prestigious family, was as pure and bright as the moon, the dream man of countless people. Sadly, he was aloof and wanted for nothing... Only when faced with Yu Cheng, the unruly rich kid, would he occasionally look displeased. He must hate that man more than anyone. But only Chu Hanfeng knew the desire he kept hidden from the world. He wanted to keep the flirtatious young master all to himself. To keep him in his arms, with eyes for no one but him.

Meanwhile, Gu Chengzhou tosses aside his phone and pins Xu Mu against the corner of a makeup table in the backstage dressing room. His eyes are dark. "Didn't you break up that night? Why is he still bothering you?" Xu Mu's handsome brows knit slightly as the table digs into his back. Gu Chengzhou changes tack: "Or... do you prefer it like this?" "Sneaking around with me..." Xu Mu's ears turn red. He looks up coldly. "Get lost." Thesis: Be your own unique self
