Lin Wu opens his eyes and goes from being a penniless college guy to a married college guy whose family has been destroyed.
In the book, Lin Wu is the youngest son of a wealthy family. But after his family is ruined, he goes from a favored young master to a fallen phoenix. Then he learns that his grandfather, for the sake of money, promised him to the "uncle" he hates most, Tan Shiming. Wounded in body and spirit, he tries to kill himself but is rescued. His marriage becomes a living torment, and he dies miserable and depressed...
Lin Wu presses his fingers to his temples. What kind of hellish start is this?

Lin Wu prepares to take charge of his own fate.
Then he realizes... this marriage doesn't seem nearly as miserable as the original Lin Wu claimed.
The original story says that on the first night after the wedding, Tan Shiming returns to their new villa, humiliates Lin Wu, and tries to assault him. Lin Wu refuses to give in, enraging Tan Shiming, who confines him to the villa.
Lin Wu's heart races. What a scumbag!
But what actually happens is that Lin Wu waves a broom at him, giving him an earful. Tan Shiming patiently waits for him to finish, then produces the property deed and says he rarely comes by, so Lin Wu can make himself at home.
Lin Wu holds the property deed, his heart pounding. A god of wealth...

The original story also says that after they marry, Tan Shiming treats him like a canary, restricts his freedom, humiliates him again and again, breaks him down physically and mentally, and coldly abuses him without mercy.
Lin Wu glares furiously. He's a living devil!
But in reality, Lin Wu has the villa to himself and gets waited on hand and foot, with all three meals taken care of. Tan Shiming is rarely there, but every so often sends him something. Cars and houses, he's got it all.
Lin Wu stares at the several luxury cars that just arrived, eyes wide. Maybe the devil isn't so bad...
*
The original story goes on to say that tormenting Lin Wu isn't enough for Tan Shiming. He also tramples on Lin Wu's dignity and character, having the Tan family take turns humiliating him until he has a breakdown.
Lin Wu trembles with fury. What a beast in human skin! The whole family are blind, heartless animals!
But in fact, Tan Shiming gives Lin Wu whatever he asks for, supplying anything he needs. The Tan family treats him like their own son, and his brothers are all generous and kind, each fighting to be his personal ATM.
Lin Wu stares at the countless zeros in his bank account and trembles all over. I'm the blind, heartless animal here...

Tan Shiming's memories of Lin Wu are still of the boy he knew as a teenager. He never expected that in the blink of an eye Lin Wu would be all grown up and become family.
To repay the Lin family for their kindness, Tan Shiming does his best to take care of Lin Wu.
In his memory, Lin Wu was proud, quiet, clever, and self-centered.
The Lin Wu he sees now is completely different.
He swings a broom at Tan Shiming, calling him a scumbag, then changes his tune completely after receiving a gift.
He sends Tan Shiming a text calling him a bastard and a son of a bitch, then quiets down the moment money is transferred.
He shuts Tan Shiming outside the door, calling him an animal with his nose in the air, then blushes and hugs him the next second, saying that a marriage without human decency is the happy kind.
Tan Shiming doesn't know when he started falling for Lin Wu. By the time he realizes it, he can't look away.

Three months after transmigrating into the book, Lin Wu hasn't lost weight or gone crazy. He's even gained five pounds.
He can't figure it out. What happened to the inhuman treatment he was promised?
Tan Shiming seems like a pretty good guy, not a bit like a pervert or a scumbag.
Lin Wu figures the original owner must have been too dramatic, until he somehow gets sweet-talked into bed, spends the whole night calling Tan Shiming all kinds of things, and wakes up the next morning too weak to stand.
He's sure of it now. Tan Shiming is a pervert, a serious one.
