In her previous life, Nan Xing was pushed to excel by his parents every day. Now he's transmigrated into a book!
The good news is, he's become the protagonist of a beloved-childhood novel he's read. The bad news is, he's only three years old.
But that's okay. Nan Xing decides that this time around, he's going to slack off to the very end.
Eat, drink, sleep, and play every day, and binge all the cartoons he never got to watch in his previous life!
-
Now that he's the protagonist, he can't go without a sidekick, right?
Nan Xing sets his sights on Pei Xiu, the nanny's son.
The kid is handsome even as a child. He's skinny, but strong, and he hits people with a real mean streak. When he grows up, he'll definitely be one cool guy!
A sidekick like that would make Nan Xing look so impressive!
-
How many steps does it take to win over a sidekick?
Step one: Give him snacks you don't like and leftovers.
Step two: Stand up for him when someone bullies him.
Step three: When people find out he's been switched at birth and his family doesn't want him, cry and beg your family to take him in.
After those three steps, Pei Xiu is Nan Xing's! (。˙▽˙。)
From then on, Nan Xing lives the dream:
Pei Xiu handles everything, and when there's nothing to do, he keeps Nan Xing warm in bed. Nan Xing gets dressed and fed without lifting a finger.
Until one day, Nan Xing realizes he's transmigrated into the wrong book.
He didn't transmigrate into a beloved-childhood novel. He landed in a no-romance power fantasy, and the protagonist is Pei Xiu. Nan Xing is the villain who bullied the protagonist as a child and gets driven into bankruptcy when they grow up.
Nan Xing: W-what?! QAQ
Nan Xing thinks back on everything he's done to the overpowered protagonist:
Giving him things he doesn't like, treating the male lead like a servant, making him take the blame whenever anything goes wrong...
His crimes are too numerous to list!
You take responsibility for your own actions. To keep his family from getting dragged into this, Nan Xing goes to Pei Xiu alone.
Nan Xing: O-one person takes responsibility for their own actions! Whatever you want, take it out on me!
Pei Xiu: Really?
Nan Xing: Of course! QAQ
Then Nan Xing can't get out of bed for three days.
-
Pei Xiu has known since childhood that he was the one who'd been abandoned. His parents hate him, and his relatives don't like him.
Until one day, a three-year-old toddler reaches out to him and says in a babyish voice, “Be my sidekick, and I'll protect you for the rest of your life!”
Pei Xiu takes his hand.
And for the next several decades, he never lets go.
-
P.S. Pei Xiu and Nan Xing aren't registered under the same household. Pei Xiu is adopted by the butler.
Long live childhood friends to lovers!
P.S. The story mainly focuses on raising a child. The romance between the love interests only starts once they're grown up, haha.
