After returning home from a parallel world, Qiu Xu discovered that he was the foil to the beloved protagonist in some rich-family, rebirth-and-comeback harem novel on Green River.
In plain English, he was the villainous fake young master who had usurped someone else's place.
He woke up at a very unfortunate moment.
The story was in the middle of its climax, and all the relevant characters had unlocked their past-life memories overnight.
So what awaited him was being kicked out of the house the moment he woke up, forced to leave with nothing; being ostracized by his classmates at school; and having his beloved cello sabotaged before the crucial music competition.
Qiu Xu: ???
Wait, if he remembered correctly, wasn't this before the story even started?
He hadn't done anything! In fact, not long ago he'd secretly organized a student council fundraiser for the poor protagonist.

Thinking about the string of melodramatic events about to unfold, Qiu Xu sat in a shabby, leaky, moldy little hut and belatedly started to worry.
Before he could come up with a plan, the man who was his older brother in name only dragged him straight to the hospital and pinned him to a cold operating table to extract his bone marrow.
Qiu Xu looked at him seriously and urged, "Big Brother, calm down."
All he got in response was a cold laugh. "You'll suffer everything he suffered, too." As he spoke, the man raised a sharp, gleaming 50-milliliter syringe and moved to stab him with it.
But as soon as he finished speaking, a scythe taller than a man smacked him flying, punching a person-shaped hole through the hospital's three-meter-thick titanium alloy doors.
A silver-haired, green-eyed exorcist reached out from beneath his hood, his long, slender fingers gently rubbing Qiu Xu's frightened, pale face.
"Don't be scared, Yeye. Your other big brothers are riding over as fast as they can..."
-
Qiu Xu lowered his head and covered his face heavily.
This was exactly why he was scared!!!
After years of relentless effort, all one hundred versions of himself in parallel worlds had escaped their ill-fated loner destinies and successfully reached the pinnacle of life.
And ordinary freshman Qiu Xu was the only one among them who was everyone's darling.
He thought of his domineering eldest brother, who was always going on about how the rich and powerful would be ruined;
his second brother, the God of Light who had switched careers from destroying the world to becoming an Elf King;
his third brother, the martial arts alliance leader who drew his blade at the slightest provocation;
and his fourth brother, who had risen to become a god in an infinite-flow world...
If one of them showed up every day, help! How badly would this world fall apart? How was he supposed to follow a comeback plot now? He might as well switch careers and become the world's greatest summoner!
