The Sickly Young Master Reborn After Discovering His True Identity Has Come to Terms with It

[Upcoming in the author's column: "I Hate Your Presumption." Please add it to your favorites. Blurb at the bottom.]

Blurb:

After being reborn, Xu Jue finally realized that he was the vicious biological son and supporting male character in a melodramatic story about switched-at-birth children.

His purpose was to serve as a foil to the fake young master and highlight the latter's kindness and goodness.

His ending was to do every terrible thing imaginable, then die in pain, alone in a cold hospital.

In his previous life, he fought for what he wanted and went mad trying, but no matter how much he argued or kicked up a fuss, all he ever got in return was, "When will you finally be as sensible as Nianjin?"

This time, he didn't want to fight or compete anymore, and he had no reason to hate them. He didn't want the kind of family affection that made him sick, either.

He just wanted to stay away from those people and live his own life. Let them be a loving family together.

The Xu family realized that Xu Jue seemed different after being reborn. He left early and came home late every day. He no longer clung to them whenever he saw them. Instead, he kept his distance, cold and indifferent, as if they were strangers.

Xu Jue was talking to Xu Nianjin's fiance. The family thought: See? We knew he wouldn't behave. He must have been pretending all along to win our trust.

But then they saw Xu Jue slap the man and get on a bus, leaving without a backward glance.

Xu Jue couldn't eat at the dinner table because his stomach hurt. He was shaking with pain, pale, and breaking out in a cold sweat. They thought: See? Xu Jue is pretending to be pitiful again. We knew he wouldn't give up.

But then they saw him take out his phone and call an ambulance for himself. The medical staff took good care of him and brought him to the hospital. He never cried out in pain, and he never asked them for help, not once!

The Xu family had never known that Xu Jue was such a good actor.

A three-time Golden Award winner begged to act alongside him.

Top directors couldn't praise him enough.

Even the national broadcaster endorsed him.

After acting in just one drama, he swept the major film awards. His fans went wild for him, the fashion world treated his outfits as trendsetters, and the entertainment industry regarded him as the ideal beloved figure.

The Xu family couldn't understand why Xu Jue's life had only gotten better after leaving them.

It wasn't until a critical condition notice arrived that they finally came to their senses. That was their own flesh-and-blood son and younger brother. What had they done to him?

They did everything they could to make it up to him, offering him shares, ordering luxury cars, and announcing to the world that Xu Jue was their only son. But there was no undoing what had been done. It was already too late.

At some point, a handsome and distinguished man appeared by Xu Jue's side. He went wherever Xu Jue wanted to go, got him whatever he wanted, and even bought him a star in the distant sky just because Xu Jue had mentioned it in passing, all to make him happy.

Yet this all-powerful man had only one humble wish: that Xu Jue would survive.

Don't worry, it has a happy ending!

Upcoming: "Back at Eighteen, I Choose to Go Into Adult Films"

Blurb one:

Jiang Xieyi opened his eyes again and found himself back ten years in the past.

He had just turned eighteen and was drowning in debt. Before him were two choices: sign up as a trainee for a hugely popular talent show, or star in a low-budget danmei film by an obscure director.

In his previous life, he chose the talent show. Unsurprisingly, thanks to his stunning looks, rare even in the entertainment industry, fans voted him into the debut lineup despite his lack of singing and dancing skills.

A promising start, but a disastrous ending.

Faced with his management company's exploitation and bullying from his teammates, he decided to terminate his contract. They turned the tables on him, and he ended up with everyone kicking him while he was down, abandoned by all.

This time, he would never choose the path of an idol again.

That left him with just one choice: go into adult films and star in a danmei movie!

He had to admit, the director might be obscure, but the pay was really high.

Only... hadn't he heard that this movie never came out in his previous life?

Blurb two:

When Luo Guichen was cornered outside the Beijing Film Academy by Lin Yang, the director of "Green Jujubes," he'd just finished filming a big-budget historical political drama. He played the third male lead, and once it aired, his future would be bright.

So he turned down Lin Yang's invitation outright. Starring in a danmei film meant going into adult films. It could quickly raise his profile, but he didn't need that kind of shortcut.

But Lin Yang wouldn't let up, showing an absolute determination to cast him.

Unable to stand the director's pestering, Luo Guichen decided to read the script first, then find a reason to turn it down.

He never expected that although it was a danmei story, it wasn't limited to romance.

Its reflections on youth and insights into life moved him deeply.

He realized the film had award-winning potential.

He accepted the role.

When Lin Xiang introduced him to his future co-star, he said indifferently, "As long as their acting is good, I don't care who it is. Once we're done filming, we'll be strangers anyway."

Blurb three:

Many years later, Jiang Xieyi lay with his head on Luo Guichen's lap, browsing Director Lin Xiang's memoirs.

When he reached the part about filming "Green Jujubes," he poked Luo Guichen's abs and lifted his gorgeous eyes, admired by countless fans, as he said without a hint of emotion:

"I heard someone once said that once filming was over, they'd be strangers?"

The man's hand paused over his script, and he instantly remembered the reckless words he'd spoken back then.

He wished he could go back and sew his mouth shut!
