When Wei Xiuning died, he was bound to a discontinued-story-filling System. By completing the plot, he could earn points to extend his life.
He transmigrated into an entertainment-industry novel as its wildly popular male lead: a lovesick doormat who came whenever he was called and was discarded whenever he was no longer useful. He was the industry's laughingstock.
To pursue his crush, he even joined a talent show where that person was a judge. Next, he was supposed to compete with the male lead for the judge's affection, lose, then lash out and try to frame him. Naturally, he would be exposed online, kicked out of the debut lineup, and become a clown everyone loved to hate.
But...
Urgent! He had no experience singing or dancing and couldn't carry a tune. How on earth was he supposed to complete the task?
With nowhere else to turn, Wei Xiuning frantically started manufacturing shipping moments with the other trainees. Through his good looks and shamelessly leeching off others, he managed to cultivate a loyal shipper fanbase and stay onstage.
But why were they looking at him more and more strangely?
His usually arrogant, haughty teammate A knelt on one knee to tie his shoelace. The award-winning actor assigned to coach the trainees' expressions held Wei Xiuning's hand to his lips and kissed it gently. "You've made me become someone I'm not."
What Wei Xiuning failed to notice was the increasingly dark gaze fixed on him from behind...

In the practice room, with only the two of them left, the male lead circled his waist from behind and rested his chin on his shoulder. His deep eyes carefully tracked every expression on the beauty in his arms, and his voice was dangerously low. "Wei Xiuning, don't you know perfectly well whose traffic is bigger?"

Wei Xiuning was mocked by passing fans who couldn't stand him, rival fans, and haters as a "Xiu Yuan" who had climbed to the top by manufacturing ship moments. Then they were made to eat their words.
A paparazzo released a photo of the male lead pinning Wei Xiuning against a wall, one hand gripping his waist, eyes red. It went viral and shot to the top of the trending charts.
Gossiping netizens: Wait, so you're the real sister-in-law?
Before the dust could settle, the male lead reposted the photo.
//@Wei Xiuning, mine.
He really was the sister-in-law, all right. But the older brother in question was someone else.
