Xie Yu transmigrated into a no-romance male-lead novel, becoming Jiang Zhao's butler.

Jiang Zhao was the chosen male lead, born into privilege and blessed with exceptional good looks. The world showered him with every advantage.

Xie Yu was his exact opposite.

Xie Yu's life had been a mess in his previous life, and it still was in this one.

His original body's father was a gambling addict, and his mother had run off with another man. Debt collectors had beaten him until he was covered in blood.

Jiang Zhao had rescued him, taken him home to the Jiang family, and trained him into the respected Butler Xie everyone knew.

In the book, the original Xie Yu was utterly loyal to Jiang Zhao. He served as Jiang Zhao's devoted right-hand man for thirty years, and in the end, died taking a knife for him. He was one of the most important people in Jiang Zhao's life.

But Xie Yu wasn't him.

This was just a fictional world. No one was going to walk all over him.

-

The head of the Jiang family, President Jiang, kept to himself and was cool and composed. He was ruthless in business, and the Jiang family had flourished under his leadership.

No one had ever seen a woman around him, except for Butler Xie.

Butler Xie was young, handsome, and charming. He was always clinging to Jiang Zhao.

Some said Xie Yu was a seducer and not to be trusted.

Some said Xie Yu wanted to get into Jiang Zhao's bed and had ulterior motives.

Others said Xie Yu wanted to seize power and take over the Jiang family.

All these rumors reached Jiang Zhao, but he paid them no mind.

Xie Yu's personality had indeed changed quite a bit. He'd become more likable, and Jiang Zhao treated him like an affectionate younger brother, always saving the best things for him.

Xie Yu was also a smooth talker. He called him "President Jiang" in front of others, but liked to call him "Big Brother" in private. When he smiled, he looked like an obedient little puppy.

Jiang Zhao trusted Xie Yu so much. But then the Jiang family changed hands, and Xie Yu sat in the head seat of the conference room, smiling at him.

"President Jiang, didn't you say I could tell you if there was anything I wanted? I want the Jiang family."

The Jiang residence still had room for Jiang Zhao, but it had a new master.

Xie Yu became President Xie. He wrapped an arm around Jiang Zhao's waist without a care for who was watching and teased him, "President Jiang, I've never seen you cry. I bet you'd look beautiful when you do."

At last, Jiang Zhao understood that Xie Yu hated him.

-

Xie Yu had thought he hated Jiang Zhao, that he was jealous of him.

Until he saw Jiang Zhao, after leaving the Jiang family, pinned against a wall by another man. Xie Yu went mad.

Jiang Zhao had been born pure and noble, like a breath of fresh air. There was no one in this world who didn't love him. Jiang Zhao had once loved Xie Yu, too. Later, Jiang Zhao could love anyone but him.

Xie Yu wrapped his arms around Jiang Zhao's waist and fell to his knees before him, his eyes red from crying.

He said, "Big Brother, I was wrong. Please don't leave me."

Jiang Zhao's expression was cold, unmoved in the slightest.
