Full-time web novel author Yu Chang developed a bizarre illness after an accident, one that threatened to destroy his career:
Looking at an electronic screen made him dizzy, and picking up a pen made him nauseous.
There was simply no way he could keep writing the novel he was serializing.
One day, after forcing himself to write until he passed out, he woke up to find that he had somehow transmigrated into the unfinished novel he had abandoned.
The bad news: he had become the story's biggest villain, and the righteous male lead had already set his sights on him. He could end up behind bars at any moment.
The good news: every time he completed a plot point from his outline in the world of the novel, he returned to reality.
More importantly, his experiences in the novel automatically became polished prose in a document on his computer. The writing was even at the height of his abilities.
His abandoned novel could be saved!
As someone with nothing but debt in his bank account (crossed out),
As an author with a strong sense of professional responsibility, Yu Chang couldn't bear to let his story end in such a mess.
His head may be severed and his blood may flow, but he must never forget the spirit of finishing what he started.
With the resolve to cross a mountain of blades and a sea of blood, Yu Chang began his difficult life of matching wits with the male lead.
The male lead, Yan Shuo, was handsome, quick-witted, powerful, and steadfast: practically perfect in every way. His unapproachable, sharp-tongued, cleanliness-obsessed personality only added to his perfection, giving him the kind of contrast readers loved.
That was what Yu Chang had thought when designing the character.
But now, as the male lead's prime suspect and his temporary partner, forced to face that sharp tongue and obsession with cleanliness, Yu Chang had only one thought:
Why did I create such a difficult, such a damn awful guy?!
Who could possibly like someone like this?!
As their days descended into chaos and they tried to outwit each other, Yu Chang worked hard to add more chapters to his web novel. But before long, he noticed a number of strange things:
The fictional characters he had invented to take the blame for him and help clear his name seemed to have become real, and were causing trouble everywhere.
Every time he returned to reality, the words "Wake up" flickered on his computer screen.
What was real, and what was false?
Yu Chang was thrown into confusion.
