Lin Xi is the protagonist of a harem novel, and everyone in the world loves him.
But only Lin Xi knows that things weren't like this three years ago.
It all began with a wish Lin Xi made when he turned eighteen.
Back then, he was an illegitimate son whom no one loved. On his eighteenth birthday, he was kicked out of the Su family. While celebrating his birthday all alone, he made a wish: he wanted lots and lots of people to love him.
Later, his wish came true. Just as he had hoped, many people fell for him.
He became the center of everyone's affection, with people constantly whispering their love for him.
But Lin Xi didn't know that it was all an illusion, and it wouldn't last.
Three years later, the story ended. One by one, the people who had once loved him awakened, glaring at Lin Xi with livid faces.
The domineering CEO spun the ring on his finger, his expression inscrutable. "What did you use to control me?"
The aloof movie star frowned, his eyes filled with disgust. "What exactly did you do?!"
The genius boy wore a playful expression, but his eyes were icy. "Are you a monster?"
Only then, in his confusion, did Lin Xi learn that he was the protagonist of a harem novel, destined to be passionately loved by the domineering CEO, the aloof movie star, and the genius boy.
But the story had ended, and he finally learned that no one in this world loved him.
He was nothing but a despicable thief who had stolen the love they felt for the people they truly loved.
Much later, after letting go of everything, Lin Xi finally stepped out of the darkness. He learned to love himself and began living a life of his own.
He never expected the people who had chosen to leave to return to his side and confess their love.
They said they truly loved him.
Lin Xi only smiled. "Don't joke around."
"Maybe you're being controlled again."
He didn't break down. He simply remained calm, and that was when they suddenly felt their hearts shatter.
They had once held a boy in the palm of their hands and protected him at every turn. Later, they cast him aside with their own hands. And later still, they finally understood their true feelings, but by then it was too late to make things right.
