Jiang Yunyi transmigrates into an old-school angsty romance novel, becoming a disposable stand-in who suffers both physically and emotionally.
Everyone knows that domineering CEOs in novels always have a beloved white moonlight they can’t have, someone who went abroad and never came back. Jiang Yunyi is the pathetic bottom who knows the CEO already has a beloved white moonlight, yet still throws himself at him, willingly playing the stand-in.
The day Jiang Yunyi transmigrates into the book is the bottom and CEO’s wedding night.
The guests shove him and the CEO into the bridal suite, and the heavy doors shut out the noisy crowd.
Jiang Yunyi meets the CEO’s cold gaze for a moment, then calmly pulls out his phone. “Want to listen to an audiobook?”
Without changing expression, he cranks the volume all the way up. “I was reborn, back on the day that scum gong abandoned me...”
The CEO furrows his brow, a trace of confusion appearing in his eyes. A moment later, his expression goes blank. “...As far as I know, unlawful imprisonment is a crime...”
Jiang Yunyi raises an eyebrow. So the CEO knows it’s illegal. In the original novel, he imprisoned the white moonlight he couldn’t have, leading to a whole series of unbroadcastable events.
Jiang Yunyi calmly plays the next episode. “You never know. Maybe one day you’ll do exactly that.”
Disdain fills the CEO’s deep-set eyes. His thin lips curl in scorn. “Hmph.”
His voice is low and firm. “The Xie family has never done anything illegal, and I’m a model citizen of the new era.”
Jiang Yunyi lets out a sigh. “You make it sound so convincing.”
The CEO angrily slams the bathroom door behind him.
A little while later, the CEO comes out wrapped in a bath towel. After hesitating for a few seconds, he asks, “What happens next? Do the police bring that scumbag to justice?”
But Jiang Yunyi is already sleeping like a log.
The CEO lies on the other side of the bed and spends the whole night reading the Criminal Law.
*
Jiang Yunyi is dedicated to reforming the CEO’s outdated way of thinking. His hobbies are lying flat and feeding the CEO mindless novels.
The CEO reads the Criminal Law over and over, repeatedly accusing Jiang Yunyi of not trusting him.
Jiang Yunyi just sighs. “You’ll behave once the white moonlight comes back from abroad.”
The CEO furrows his brow, sensing that something is seriously wrong... except he doesn’t.
Who exactly started spreading the rumor that Xu Baihan was his white moonlight? He barely knows Xu Baihan!
The day the “white moonlight” returns from abroad, Jiang Yunyi runs away.
That’s right! He runs!
The CEO is so furious he trembles all over, and Jiang Yunyi’s WeChat Moments makes his eyes turn even redder.
[Jiang Yunyi]: Oh my god, Xie Shuwang has never denied that I’m Xu Baihan’s stand-in, and now Xu Baihan is back from abroad... Guys, I’m sweating bullets. My hands are shaking as I type this. The more I think about it, the scarier it gets... (I’ve already run away)

The day the CEO finds him, Jiang Yunyi is living it up in Haicheng.
When the CEO grabs him by the collar and hauls him back, Jiang Yunyi stares at him in stunned silence. “Aren’t you supposed to be imprisoning Xu Baihan now? Why are you grabbing me?”
The CEO laughs in fury.
The moment Jiang Yunyi is tossed into a dark room, he’s completely dumbfounded.
#Holy crap. How did he end up playing out the entire white moonlight plot?
#Call the police! Can someone call the police for him? The CEO is illegally imprisoning someone!
The CEO sighs softly and covers Jiang Yunyi’s eyes. “Baby. When you’re married, we call this foreplay.”
