Ji Muyuan transmigrated into a book.
He had landed in a melodramatic romance novel combining wealthy families, tortured love, and childbirth. He was the vicious, scummy villain younger brother of the novel's bottom.
In elementary school, he stole the bottom's snacks. In high school, he stole his pocket money. In college, he stole his job opportunities and even his man.
In short, if it belonged to the bottom, he wanted to steal it.
The original character was gloomy, cowardly, and selfish, but loved the novel's top with all his heart.
The top was an illegitimate child of a wealthy family. To help him secure the family inheritance, the original character pretended to marry the top's frail, sickly half-brother to bring him good fortune.
In reality, he was plotting to kill him.
In the end, the top's brother discovered the original character's schemes and sent him to prison before he could be killed.
The original character suffered miserably in prison while the top and bottom lived happily outside.
What's more, the bottom was a man, yet he got pregnant and gave birth to a baby.
Watching the happy couple on television, the original character grew consumed with resentment and eventually died of illness in prison.
When Ji Muyuan transmigrated into the book, he'd already been married for three days.
In those three days, the original character had already done plenty.
To put it mildly, he'd spent every day stirring up trouble in the Huo household until everyone hated him.
To put it more seriously, he was currently holding the top's brother's oxygen mask, about to pull it off.
While he hesitated, the person in the hospital bed woke up.
The other man's dark eyes calmly looked at Ji Muyuan.
Ji Muyuan's hand trembled. He put on an awkward fake smile. "It was dirty, so I was just picking it up to wipe it off."
Huo Yan, reborn, looked at his pathetic acting with cold eyes. "Oh, really? I don't believe you."
Ji Muyuan: What a coincidence. I don't believe it either.
To live freely for the rest of his life without ending up in prison, Ji Muyuan suggested a divorce.
"Look, you're awake now, so my lucky-marriage mission is complete. How about we get divorced?"
Huo Yan frowned. He hadn't said that in his previous life.
Is he planning to hurt me in some way I don't know about?
But Huo Yan's agreement alone wasn't enough for a divorce. The marriage laws in the book said that if neither spouse was at fault, they had to wait until their first anniversary to get divorced.
So during that year of waiting, whatever Ji Muyuan did, Huo Yan thought this troublemaker was trying to hurt him.
Ji Muyuan, exhausted: I really am a good person!
But once they finally got divorced...
Ji Muyuan stared at the words "pregnant" on his test report, close to tears.
Wait, how could he get pregnant too?
