Sheng Yi, the young master of the Sheng family, is arrogant and reckless, beautiful but brainless. Spoiled and doted on since childhood, he has money and influence and is hailed as heaven's favorite.
One day, the young master glimpses the secrets of fate in a dream and realizes, to his horror, that he is the stupid, vicious cannon fodder in a novel. After his family offends the male lead, who is down on his luck early in the story, they are ultimately ruined, and Sheng Yi, left without their protection, meets a miserable end, dying violently in the street.
After waking, Sheng Yi thinks for a moment. Images of future economic trends and key financial information flash through his mind, and he resolutely decides: Better cling to the male lead after all.

At dusk, in a gloomy alley, a handsome young man is pinned beneath the feet of a sinister-looking boy, who sneers arrogantly, "A piece of trash like you dares covet what's mine..."
At the critical moment, just before the poor young man is about to pass out, a refined and beautiful boy appears out of nowhere and furiously puts a stop to the abuse.
"That's too much!" He shoves the bully away, then leans toward the young man, whose eyes light up with delight.
"How can you steal someone else's things?!"
Sheng Yi sternly reprimands the despicable "villain" cowering in the corner, then points to the pitiful "male lead" behind him.
"Apologize to him, now!"
The real male lead, who dreamed last night that an angel would come save him: ???
The clueless, deranged real villain: Good. At least some people in this world aren't blind.

Bo Yan of the Bo family is violent by nature and vicious in his methods. Widely known as a cursed loner, nobody in their circle dares provoke him, let alone get close.
One day, the young master of the Sheng family throws a grand party, drags Bo Yan along, and announces to everyone with his chin raised, "Listen up! From now on, he's mine! Nobody's allowed to bully him anymore, got it?"
Everyone: ???
Later on.
Sheng Yi inexplicably makes things difficult for a male college student in public, using rough methods. The onlookers can't help shaking their heads in dismay.
Only Bo Yan, who arrives later to help clean up, shakes his head fondly. "My darling is so clever and kind. He only used a little trick like that."
Everyone: ...
Bo Yan goes after one branch of his family after another, showing no mercy. Everyone else is horrified and secretly condemns him for being far too ruthless.
Only Sheng Yi, eagerly helping him finish them off by his side, feels sorry for him. "My boyfriend is just too softhearted. How could he put up with them this long..."
Everyone: ...
[Stupid, Vicious Cannon Fodder vs. Unhinged Villain]
A domineering beauty with bizarre logic, who seems sharp but is actually an idiot, vs. a handsome nutcase with an equally strange way of thinking, who acts arrogantly but thinks he's the pitiful one
Simply put, it's a story about two clueless little baddies getting together.
