Add it to your reading list!--- The brilliant young star Ye Qingxi dies unexpectedly on his eighteenth birthday. Looking back on his life, he'd been surrounded by stardom: he debuted at five, was nominated for the Golden Laurel Award for Best Newcomer at thirteen, released three hit albums at fifteen, and won Best Actor at an international film festival at seventeen, becoming the youngest actor ever to claim the title. Countless people watched him grow up, and countless people loved and admired him. Now he lies dead in the middle of the road. The trending topics are in chaos, and netizens are heartbroken. But they don't know that, for Ye Qingxi, death is actually a release. Nor do they know that he hasn't really died at all: instead, he's transmigrated into a novel as a five-year-old child with the same name. When Ye Qingxi opens his eyes again, he sees a group of men and women of all ages. It doesn't take him long to recognize them as the novel's major villain, minor villains, and the brutal, volatile older villain. The older villain looks livid, the major villain is aloof, and the minor villains are bickering nonstop. Ye Qingxi: Great. This family is going to fall apart any day now. But six months later... Ye Qingxi looks at the villains of all ages around him. “Which little car do you like, sweetheart? Take one for a spin, and we'll keep the other two in your garage, okay?” This is the minor villain who's a school bully. Supposedly, he's an edgy, rebellious punk who throws his weight around at the protagonist's younger brother's high school, terrifying him. “Try this, sweetheart. It's really sweet. I waited in line forever to get it.” This is the minor villain who's a rock singer. Supposedly, she's unruly and wild, and steals the protagonist's younger sister's sweetheart right out from under her. “Get lost! Don't you all have kids of your own? Why are you crowding around mine? Sweetheart, where do you want to go tomorrow, the zoo or an amusement park?” This is the middle-ranking villain, a top-tier star, and the man who is now technically Ye Qingxi's father. Supposedly, he abuses his power, is arrogant, and becomes the biggest obstacle in the protagonist's acting career. “How is he your kid? Dad's the one who brought him home! That makes him ours!” the school-bully villain shouts, stubbornly jutting out his chin. “That's right.” The fearsome, volatile older villain opens his arms. “Come here, Qingxi. Come to Grandpa.” But the major villain holding him doesn't let go. “Wait until Qingxi finishes his steamed egg custard first.” Then he gently lifts a spoonful and brings it to Ye Qingxi's lips. Ye Qingxi: ...Is this really the ruthless, decisive, taciturn major villain who drove the protagonist to the brink of despair? Are you seriously blowing on the egg custard so carefully? Ye Qingxi, at first: This family will fall apart in a couple of days. Ye Qingxi, later: No one is breaking up our loving family! The old Ye Qingxi thought he didn't need a family. But the Ye Qingxi of today sleeps in his new dad's arms and never wants to leave his family. Visit the author's page to add this to your reading list and find more completed novels!
