These days, transmigrate into a book stories are all about the cannon fodder rising to the top and living the good life. For a 30,000-yuan bonus, Ruan Baizhou took on a mission in the guise of a gold digger, only to fail and get mocked by the male lead. He was so angry he nearly died.
By all rights, he should have lost everything. But the male lead hated him so much that he paid him 300,000 yuan to disappear for good.
Ruan Baizhou was stunned.
Succeed and get 30,000, fail and get 300,000? What?
But Ruan Baizhou was petty and had a temper. He took the money, but the humiliation had shaken him badly. He was set on returning to the book to give the male lead a little taste of his own medicine.
But when he went to find the male lead in the same disguise, the man didn't recognize him at all.
How could that be?
A bug?
Ruan Baizhou tried playing through the plot again. He got dumped once more, and the male lead gave him another 300,000 yuan.
That was how Ruan Baizhou exploited the bug six times. They dated, held hands, hugged, and kissed, with things progressing differently each time, but every breakup successfully triggered the bug.
Looking at his ever-growing bank balance, he blushed with embarrassment.
Turning your enemy into a six-time ex is a kind of revenge, too...
I'm a genius!
And that wasn't all. He urged a whole bunch of people to become cannon fodder and trip up the male lead, one after another. He happily went to work every day, then left with a fortune once he'd earned enough.
Years later, when he wanted to start a business, he thought of the male lead again.
But as the day to sign the contract drew near, his seventh attempt to exploit the bug failed, and he couldn't get out of the book's world.
He had two big problems.
First: the people he'd egged on suddenly started chasing him relentlessly.
Second: no matter how outrageous he acted, the male lead refused to break up with him!
If they didn't break up, how was he supposed to get home?

Shen Mu was the only son of the Shen Group, and his family had been pushing him to go on blind dates every year.
People around him whispered that he was cold-hearted, but he didn't care. He was focused entirely on his career.
Then an interesting guy barged into his life.
The guy seemed a little dim. The first time they met, Shen Mu dumped 300,000 yuan on him. The second time, Shen Mu thought he was bad luck and pretended not to know him. And then the guy actually clung to him!
Well, let him cling. His tricks were never original. Did he really think Shen Mu had amnesia?
What an idiot!
Later, Shen Mu decided it was time to close the net.
So he rounded up every cannon-fodder character Ruan Baizhou had egged on and gave each of them a new "script."
Just as expected, after a few days of being treated like a public menace, Ruan Baizhou came running to him, wailing.
Shen Mu (holding back a laugh): How can I help you?
Ruan Baizhou (fawning): "I want to leave this world. All you have to do is dump me after I confess to you!"
Shen Mu: "Who do you think you are? Of course I'll dump you."
Ruan Baizhou: "I like you!"
But the very next second, Shen Mu said, "I like you too."
