Shen Ji'an, an overworked 996 office drone, transmigrated into a showbiz danmei novel. He became a mediocre director of lowbrow films and couldn't help devoting himself to the protagonist bottom, whom he had a crush on.
Early on, the protagonist bottom was bullied in the industry and had no steady work as an extra. Drawing on the self-discipline of an office drone, Shen Ji'an planned to follow the plot: help him out financially, but keep things platonic. Once the protagonist bottom met the protagonist top, Shen Ji'an would bow out, having played the perfect cannon fodder.
At last, he managed to enter the plot at just the right moment and save the pitiful protagonist bottom from a scumbag trying to take advantage of him in a hotel.
A tempting little mole sat on the poor guy's collarbone. Shen Ji'an covered it with his jacket and said sternly, "That guy's trash. Stay away from him, got it?"
The pitiful little guy nodded obediently.
Later, the pitiful little guy became cleaner and neater by the day. His every gesture gave away his refined upbringing, and Shen Ji'an was quite pleased with his parenting skills.
There was also a villain in the novel who loved the protagonist bottom without hope. He was deeply obsessed with him, sickly and possessive, and happened to wield immense power.
Shen Ji'an couldn't bear the thought of his own kid getting ruined, so he told the protagonist bottom the villain's name too. "And stay away from this lunatic as well, understand?"
The pitiful little guy took a couple of seconds, then nodded obediently again.
.
The villain was a powerful, high-ranking investor with a monopoly on the industry, but no one had ever seen his true face.
Some guessed he must be an incredibly ugly, greasy middle-aged man. Only Shen Ji'an knew that he was actually a hysterical, neurotic, and extremely emotional genius screenwriter.
One day, Shen Ji'an saw a photo on the villain's social media. The person in it had a little black mole on his collarbone.
Shen Ji'an's heart leapt into his throat. The mole was in exactly the same place as the protagonist bottom's. Had the villain already made secret contact with him?
Almost at the same time, the protagonist top announced that he and the protagonist bottom were dating. The two showered viewers with affection during a livestream, and Shen Ji'an's heart sank back into place.
Thank goodness, the protagonist top and bottom were together and doing just fine.
Before he could even smile, he realized there was a much more serious problem. He whipped around to look at the pitiful little guy beside him, who was holding out a freshly peeled grape to Shen Ji'an's lips, gazing at him with innocent, mesmerizing eyes.
That little black mole was alluring and impossible to ignore.
Shen Ji'an: Wait, then who is this protagonist bottom beside me?
#Could it be that I saved the villain?
Theme: Love life.
