Lu Youliang is universally regarded by his friends as a really good person. When someone falls while crossing the street and nobody else helps, he does. When a friend needs to borrow money and nobody else lends them any, he does. When there's the dirtiest, most exhausting job and nobody else will do it, he does.
Does Lu Youliang actually want to do these things? Not at all! He was born unable to turn down other people's requests, so in his life he became a famously self-sacrificing do-gooder, and often ended up getting nothing for his trouble.
Lu Youliang: "I don't want to be a good person anymore!"
A bolt of lightning struck Lu Youliang, and he transmigrated into the socialist bromance novel he'd read the night before, becoming the interstellar pirate leader who met the most gruesome death in the book, otherwise known as the great villain.
After entering the book, he was bound to some unknown [Be a Villain or Die] System. Lu Youliang had to kill the protagonist and become the great villain, or he'd kick the bucket.
And so...
Lu Youliang poisoned Ji Lingxiao, the protagonist and a marshal. The poison combined with the insect venom in Ji Lingxiao's body, and Ji Lingxiao recovered completely.
Lu Youliang plotted to frame Ji Lingxiao and turn the whole universe against him. But when his scheme failed, people across the universe started shipping the two of them instead?
At last, Lu Youliang couldn't take it anymore. He strapped himself with explosives, intending to die together with Ji Lingxiao.
But... Ji Lingxiao emerged completely unharmed, while Lu Youliang ended up saving the entire universe.
Netizens across the universe: "Waaaah, what kind of divine love is this? I'm shipping them! They're real!!!!!!"
Lu Youliang: "????? Believe me, I'm really the great villain!!"
His former fiance, the interstellar marshal Ji Lingxiao: "So your feelings for me run that deep."
The interstellar pirate Lu Youliang, whose genetic match with the marshal is one hundred percent: "Don't come over here and get handsy!! I'll call the police!!"
Thesis: The whole universe thinks I'm a good person
