Tang Xiaozao, an actor from a minor league, transmigrates into an old-fashioned novel as the cannon-fodder younger brother of the protagonist who gets pursued.
When he arrives, the story is at a major turning point: the wedding.
The protagonist runs away from the wedding, and while the villain is chasing after him, the other protagonist hits him with a car, leaving him disabled.
Afterward, the two protagonists look at the villain in his wheelchair. “He may have lost his legs, but he almost took our love away from us.”
Tang Xiaozao is busy tearing apart the terrible plot when he suddenly remembers that he's the one who dies in the car accident. “!”
The author created Tang Xiaozao's character so his death could guilt-trip the villain into forgiving the protagonists.
So Tang Xiaozao immediately rushes forward and clings desperately to the villain's leg, stopping him from chasing after them.
Gu Qingshan looks down at him, his voice frighteningly cold. “Let go.”
In his panic, Tang Xiaozao blurts out, crying, “Waaah, it's an arranged marriage anyway, right? Why not marry me instead?”
-
After an accidental marriage of convenience, Tang Xiaozao is constantly keeping tabs on the villain's corruption, afraid he'll go after the protagonists.
What if the protagonist who pursues the other one hits the villain again and makes him turn evil? Tang Xiaozao would have to sacrifice himself again for a happy ending.
So every day, Tang Xiaozao tells the villain that he's genuinely wonderful and worthwhile.
In front of the protagonists, he's like a mother hen protecting her chick, never letting anyone slight the villain.
Even when drunk, he remembers to remind Gu Qingshan:
“Stop liking my older brother. Can't you like me for now?”
Thanks to Tang Xiaozao's constant care, cuteness, and antics, the villain shows no signs of corruption even on the day the protagonists get their happy ending. He even invests in all sorts of screenplays and makes Tang Xiaozao a top-tier actor.
Tang Xiaozao breathes a sigh of relief. “When are we getting divorced?”
But Gu Qingshan suddenly turns evil, pins him onto the bed, and kisses him, gritting his teeth as he says, “There's no divorce. Only one of us dying.”
Tang Xiaozao: “Huh?”
