The Villainous Male Side Character Just Wants to Lie Flat

(The main story is complete)

Fang Lü transmigrates into a melodramatic entertainment-industry romance novel as the villainous male supporting character. As the heroine’s stepbrother, he secretly lusts after her and does everything he can to sabotage her relationship with the male lead. He treats his new wife with cold indifference, and eventually ends up bankrupt after the male lead and his wife join forces to bring him down.

The transmigrated Fang Lü looks at the glamorous beauty standing beside his hospital bed, tall and graceful, with long, wavy hair. With a wife like this, why would I need the heroine? Wife, you’re my goddess!

Ning Fei married into the Fang family in place of her runaway older sister, with no other choice. He knows Fang Lü is cold-hearted and indifferent, and that his precious stepsister is the only person in his eyes. He never expected that after a car accident, the gloomy, aloof man would change completely:

When he goes shopping,

Fang Lü: “Honey, I’ll carry your bags! That dress looks great. It goes perfectly with your shoes!”

When he has no appetite,

Fang Lü: “Honey, I made you cold chicken noodles. They’re really appetizing!”

When he refuses to share a bed,

Fang Lü: “Waaah, honey, you might catch a chill sleeping alone! I bought you lots of stuffed animals to keep you company!”

Ning Fei: ???

A few months later.

Fang Lü and his marriage partner are invited to appear on a couples’ reality show. They are supposed to be the contrast to the male and female leads’ perfect love story: a fake couple who can’t stand each other, constantly bickering, and eventually getting shredded by the whole internet. But what actually happens is this:

The handsome CEO wears a pink apron and shyly shares his baking tips with the female contestants.

The stunning wife carries a bucket at a brisk pace and kills a giant cockroach on the wall with a single slap of her slipper.

When they go to a remote island for a challenge, the man is supposed to protect the woman. But with this couple…

CEO: “Ningning, I’m scared to sleep in the tent alone. Can you stay with me?”

Gorgeous wife: “I’ll stand guard outside. Go ahead and sleep.”

The viewers at first: What is this?

The viewers later: Aaaaaah, a badass woman and a soft, sweet man made real! I’m obsessed! Everyone, ship them!

One night after they become famous, Fang Lü gets drunk and wanders into Ning Fei’s bedroom, mistaking him for a body pillow as he kisses and nuzzles him.

He expects to be kicked out of bed by his unbelievably strong partner. Instead, the other man pins his hands and takes charge…

The next day, Fang Lü wakes with an aching back and a bewildered expression. Where’s my wife? How did she turn into a man?!

Shocked and flustered, Fang Lü leaves a divorce agreement and runs away in the middle of the night.

A month later, on a certain island.

Fang Lü is sunbathing in a beach chair when a tall, handsome figure strides up, radiating fury.

He jumps up to run, but after barely two steps, the man pulls him into his arms.

Warm breath brushes his ear as the man grits out, “You want a divorce? Haven’t you had enough of the lesson I taught you that night?”
