Yu Lu transmigrated into a book.
In this melodramatic, angst-filled novel, The Frail, Disliked One's Heart Turns to Ashes, and the Wealthy Young Master Regrets It Too Late, the protagonist is a top-tier tragic beauty with a strong spirit, bearing the brunt of all the novel's suffering.
Yu Lu, meanwhile, is a cannon-fodder passerby who drives the plot forward, in the form of a vicious villain.
When Gu Xun scavenges by the roadside, he's the hooligan who kicks away his water bottle.
When Gu Xun is bullied at school, he's the blond kid cheering them on with a bucket of water.
When Gu Xun is welcomed into a wealthy family, he's the servant who gossips about him and calls him a little bastard.
When Gu Xun is beaten into the hospital by his scumbag attacker, he's the caregiver who secretly abuses him.
When Gu Xun makes his debut and becomes a huge star, he's the keyboard warrior who calls him a resource hog online.
When Gu Xun makes a movie, he's the washed-up actor from the eighteenth tier who keeps sabotaging him.
Yu Lu: ...I really deserve to die.
Then one day, the scumbag attacker poured a whole glass of date-rape drug down Gu Xun's throat so he could force himself on him.
Yu Lu had taken the scumbag's money and was the crooked bartender who lured Gu Xun into his room.
On the big hotel bed, in the dim light, the protagonist who should have been unconscious suddenly opened his eyes and pinned him down.
"You've bullied me so many times. Don't I deserve some compensation?"
Yu Lu: Aah! Help! Aren't passerby characters like me supposed to be unrecognizable?!

In his previous life, Gu Xun took down half of Jiangcheng single-handedly and killed everyone who had ever hurt him. He never expected to be reborn in high school one day.
His past experiences had long since stopped stirring even the slightest ripple in his heart.
Then Gu Xun suddenly took notice of a passerby who kept showing up.
Someone... who always seemed to enjoy watching him have bad luck.
