I Became a Short-Lived, Universally Hated Character, But Everyone Loves Me

Shen Nanyan transmigrated into a book, becoming the obsessive, universally disliked character who shared his name.

The original Shen Nanyan had asthma and was a gloomy stalker. He would stop at nothing to teach a lesson to anyone who dared approach his beloved, and was both nasty and stupid. Everyone hated him.

After transmigrating into the book, Shen Nanyan decided to kick back and do nothing but lounge around. He refused to be anyone's lovesick puppy.

Life after transmigrating into the book was chaotic.

His eldest brother fumed, "Cause trouble again and I'll kick you out."

Shen Nanyan rubbed his hands together excitedly. "Actually, I've been thinking about moving out lately."

His beloved said coldly, "Come near me again and I'll make sure you die horribly."

Shen Nanyan blushed a little. "Actually, I've already found someone new to admire."

There was also a powerful villain in the book, who had endured humiliation and abuse since childhood. In truth, he was the real young master of the Chi family, lost to them long ago.

When Chi Rao, covered in wounds, first met the notoriously awful young master everyone despised, Shen Nanyan walked up to him. Chi Rao demanded fiercely, "What do you want?"

Looking at his favorite villain in the novel, Shen Nanyan coaxed him gently: "Hi, I'm the cheat code you paid for. Please accept delivery."

Everyone noticed that Shen Nanyan had acquired a little sidekick.

When Chi Rao was being hassled by thugs, Shen Nanyan would show up to back him up.

When his awful adoptive parents tried to bleed him dry, Shen Nanyan would stand up for him.

Chi Rao couldn't understand. "What do you want from me?"

In the darkness, Shen Nanyan looked at him. "If you're afraid of me, then leave."

Shen Nanyan didn't know that after he fell asleep, Chi Rao would creep toward him like a stray cat, sheath his claws, and carefully cling to the person he now called his own.

While trying to help someone, Shen Nanyan accidentally went too far. He saved his beloved, but ended up in a vegetative state himself.

His eldest brother, who never showed his emotions, stayed by his bedside, his eyes red. "Your brother was wrong. Please wake up. I'll take you home."

His once-pristine beloved stayed with him night after night, looking utterly haggard.

Chi Rao knelt beside his bed and held his hand. "Please, open your eyes."

"As long as you wake up, I'll give you anything."

Shen Nanyan woke up, but his little sidekick was nowhere to be found.

Was this the famous case of everyone scattering when disaster struck?

Later, a formidable business tycoon rose to prominence, ruthless in his methods and able to turn the world upside down. Shen Nanyan thought he had nothing to do with it, until one day he woke up after a night of heavy drinking in someone's bed.

Chi Rao said hoarsely, "Long time no see."

Shen Nanyan asked him the same question he'd once asked: "What do you want from me?"

Chi Rao gazed at him with deep affection. "You. I want only you."
