After Becoming the Devoted Male Supporting Character in a Period Novel

Zhao Lihui spent the previous night cursing out a novel. The next day, he stepped outside and was hit and killed by a drunk driver. When Zhao Lihui opened his eyes again, he found himself inside the period novel he had torn to shreds. The original owner had the same name as him, and was the novel's devoted second male lead. Zhao Lihui had also judged him to be the biggest sucker in the whole book: Before the male lead appeared, the original owner was the female lead's number-one simp. Whenever she or her family ran into trouble, he was the first person they thought of. After the male lead appeared, the original owner became the biggest sucker in both leads' lives. The female lead and her family, the male lead and his family, and the two leads themselves never included him when good things happened. But whenever trouble came along, he was the first person they thought of. Whenever Zhao Lihui read scenes where the original owner got dragged into trouble, he would give the book a negative rating, curse the author's ancestors for eighteen generations, argue with every reader defending the leads, and deal a full hundred percent of genuine damage. And now, he was that biggest sucker. The first thing Zhao Lihui did was beg his mother to ask a matchmaker to visit House Number Eight in the alley up ahead and propose to the girl there, who had a red birthmark on her face. After reading the whole book, she was the minor character Zhao Lihui felt most sorry for and liked the most. The wife he'd dreamed of marrying was right in front of him. Was he supposed to just sit there? No way! I'm marrying her! Who in Shuijing Alley didn't know that the third Zhao son loved following Sun Baozhu around like a puppy? The Sun family always said they were just ordinary friends, but nobody believed them. Then, out of nowhere, Third Zhao got engaged to the ugly girl from Tongxin Alley up ahead. The neighbors: ??? The Sun family and Sun Baozhu: !!! Zhao Lihui, getting ready to marry: Hehehehe, my wife, hehehe... Reader's Guide: 1. Told from the male lead's perspective, with lots of creative liberties. 2. Set in an alternate period, this time telling a story about life in the city. Theme: Wherever you are, live your life well.
