Yin Qi, a B-list actor, transmigrates into the body of a trainee shadow guard in ancient times. But that's not the point. The point is that he mistakenly thinks he's become the shadow guard, the second male lead in the original novel of a censored danmei drama he'd once acted in.
Having read the novel, he reacts with straight-man shock and horror:
Is some prince who's the protagonist and my boss going to be waiting to do all kinds of things to me next?!
As a shadow guard, will I have to slave away for my boss, then end up pregnant and giving birth to his child?!!
No, no, no, the original novel is too scary. Maybe I've only transmigrated into the drama script! Good brothers joining forces to build a prosperous dynasty is the right path! It must be, no doubt about it (ㄒoㄒ)//!

Xiao Heng has been able to read people's innermost thoughts since he was a child.
His mind-reading ability let him see the filth of human nature and hearts, and he found it dreadfully boring. Then one day, he heard the thoughts of a certain stone-faced shadow guard:
[Shit, the boss says one word, and the underlings run their legs off. What a garbage boss, no humanity at all. He just runs his mouth and doesn't even pay overtime!]
Seme: ...?
[Shit, shit! Rabbits know not to eat the grass by their own burrow, yet this asshole boss is sexually harassing his handsome, kind, and pitiful subordinate! Is this a collapse of morality or a distortion of human nature?!]
Seme: …
[Whoa, he's been drugged with an aphrodisiac? You bastard, boss, you'd better choke to death! Damn it, the sooner you die, the sooner you'll be reborn! You want me to have your baby? No way! Not in this lifetime!!]
After being cursed throughout the whole book by Yin Qi's inner monologue, the seme silently gave a slightly (perverted) smile:
Hah, have a baby?
Great, I'm in. :)
In a nutshell: After Yin Qi transmigrates, his daily routine is slacking off at work, coasting along, waiting to die, and complaining about his inhuman boss. Unexpectedly, all that complaining gets him promoted and a raise, and he marries his rich, beautiful boss, reaching the pinnacle of life⁉️
