Xu Mingcheng transmigrated into a book, born into the world of The Flower Hunter's Handbook, a harem novel about a dominant male lead, as a disposable background character.
The good news was that he came from a distinguished family: his mother was a princess, his father a high-ranking official, and his maternal uncle was the emperor. The bad news was that he was sickly, a walking medicine jar, and somehow managed to attract Meng Xuan, the original story's main villain, who forced him into marriage.
Good news: Meng Xuan was a stunningly beautiful young man, with red lips and pearly white teeth.
Bad news: Xu Mingcheng was a hopeless beauty addict, and Meng Xuan was exactly his type. The thoroughly useless Young Master Xu fell in love at first sight.
Good news: Though they had been set up, they got married.
Bad news: Xu Mingcheng died, and Meng Xuan was the one who killed him.
Good news: Xu Mingcheng was reborn.
The reborn Xu Mingcheng was furious. He sharpened his knives, ready to take revenge on the villain.
His plan was to annoy him, anger him, make him hate him, and absolutely refuse to marry him.
In the end, Young Master Xu failed to do any of that.
Threatened by the prospect of Meng Xuan being matched with someone else, Xu Mingcheng went to the palace in the middle of the night and begged for an imperial decree to marry him.
