Su He transmigrates into a book and becomes a fake young master of a wealthy family, and not just any fake young master: he's the villainous cannon-fodder who does every despicable thing in a melodramatic business-warfare novel!
In the book, after being kicked out of the wealthy family, the fake young master turns to the villainous Boss and becomes an obstacle on the male lead's path to power. After he's been used up, he's killed off miserably.
Su He: Huh? The villain who steals business secrets? Me? (O.O)
To stay alive, Su He gets placed by the male lead, Sheng Jinyu. During the day, he works hard to be a good subordinate. At night, he returns to his old job as a diligent author, writing stories for his readers.

Sheng Jinyu is a famous racing driver, a cool guy with a volatile temper who is sensitive and suspicious. After an accident leaves him injured, he's called home to inherit the family business, only to have a little sidekick foisted on him.
The sidekick looks like a soft, helpless little bun. But after Sheng Jinyu awakens and learns that his world is a novel, he knows that Su He is really a snake-hearted schemer who's playing the pig to eat the tiger.
Sheng Jinyu: Good. I'll find a flaw and take him out.
But no matter whether he threatens or tempts him, Su He never slips up. He stays by Sheng Jinyu's side, still gentle and obedient, and even...
Seems a little too attentive to him.
One day, Sheng Jinyu finds the handwritten love letter Su He "accidentally" left for him. Suddenly, everything that happened before makes sense. Sheng Jinyu waits for him to explain, his face cold.
The little sidekick blushes and avoids his gaze, stammering, "It wasn't written for you."
At that excuse, Sheng Jinyu's expression darkens further. "Who else did you want to write it for?"
Su He looks at him earnestly with wide eyes. "Actually, I'm a writer."
Sheng Jinyu laughs in exasperation. Having a crush on him isn't anything to be embarrassed about. There's no need to come up with such an unbelievable excuse.

After much deliberation, the eldest young master Sheng decides that he might as well give Su He a chance.
With Valentine's Day approaching, Sheng Jinyu receives a secret invitation from Su He. He agrees with great restraint, while secretly preparing a ring.
But they meet at a movie launch event, where Su He appears as the original author and hands him a piece of merchandise featuring the handwritten love letter, happily saying, "Thanks for coming."
Sheng Jinyu looks at the familiar love letter in his hand, his face so dark he looks ready to eat someone.
When the plot reaches its climax, Su He flees in the middle of the night to escape danger and save his life. Sheng Jinyu catches up with him, carries him home, and throws him onto the bed. The big bad wolf advances step by step, while the little lamb retreats again and again.
Sheng Jinyu snarls, "If you run again, I'll..."
Su He cries in terror, "Break my legs? QAQ"
"I'll kiss you to death."

*My upcoming entertainment-industry danmei novel next door: Can a Cannon-Fodder Play the Lead?
[A timid, obedient actor who carefully tries to avoid trouble but keeps getting into it x A cold, strict older daddy-type powerhouse]
Tang Anwu is a no-name actor with no connections or resources. After struggling for ages, a famous director finally notices his acting, and he lands a supporting role!
But he drops dead the night before filming begins...
Before he even has time to cry for himself, he wakes up transmigrated into a wealthy-family novel as the protagonist's cannon-fodder younger brother.
Tang Anwu: Great, I'm still ali
But the cannon fodder has already completed his death-seeking plot and is about to be locked up in a mental hospital for life after getting drunk and smashing a luxury car worth tens of millions.
Tang Anwu: ...ve.
To make matters worse, the person sending him to the mental hospital is the original novel's most intimidating mysterious big shot, Huo Mingyou.
This man has deep connections, a cold and stern nature, strict rules, and ruthless methods. Even the protagonist's family treats him with great respect.
I can't afford to offend him. I'm doomed (oí _ ìo)
·
To stay alive, Tang Anwu throws caution to the wind and signs a "contract of servitude" with Huo Mingyou.
From then on, he must hide his identity and pretend to be Huo Mingyou's runaway fiancé, accompany him to public events, act like a loving couple, and even debut as an actor in a movie directed by Huo Mingyou!
This is all to ensure that the marriage alliance between their families goes smoothly until Huo Mingyou gets what he wants. But if Tang Anwu messes it up... he'll die even more horribly.
He can clean up the mess left by the original cannon-fodder host and continue the career he had in his previous life. That's a deal where he gets to have his cake and eat it too!
Tang Anwu waves his hand and signs without hesitation!
·
Following the persona in the contract, Tang Anwu diligently plays the spoiled brat, while carefully making sure not to mess up his work or cause trouble on set.
He's often the first to shout that he's hungry after a scene, then throws his weight around and complains that the production crew's boxed lunches taste awful. In the end, he gets Huo Mingyou to pay his salary in advance so he can order extra food for the crew.
After this happens a few times, Tang Anwu keeps noticing people quietly gossiping about him behind his back. After all, he's such a spoiled brat, so it's only natural for people to talk.
Tang Anwu doesn't take it to heart. When he bumps into them, he quietly turns and leaves, never realizing that the people gossiping about him are now devouring the extra food he ordered, tears streaming down their faces. "I even secretly badmouthed him. I deserve to die! Young Master Tang has an angel's face and a bodhisattva's heart!"
Huo Mingyou, watching it all from the side, raises an eyebrow. For once, he doesn't give Tang Anwu a hard time in the next scene.
On the day of the awards ceremony, Tang Anwu accepts the trophy Huo Mingyou hands him, only to be pulled into his arms the next second.
With flashes bursting all around them, he hears Huo Mingyou whisper in his ear, "I'm starting to regret bringing you out in public."
Tang Anwu: O.O
That night, amid fans everywhere calling him "wife" at a fan event, a post appears from Huo Mingyou's Weibo account, which hasn't been updated in eight hundred years.
The whole internet watches in disbelief as the cold, famous director competes for attention from afar, demanding that Tang Anwu give him a title!
Tang Anwu: (screams) But the contract already expired!
Huo Mingyou smiles calmly. "I went back on my word."
