The Vicious Villain Turns Out to Be My Destined One

Su Chengyu wakes up inside an esports power fantasy novel, as a pretty but ill-fated sacrificial character.

The original owner was rich and handsome, but had an incurable case of lovesickness. To win over the protagonist, Yan Zeye, he went out of his way to torment the villain, Song Zhiyi.

The ending?

His family is destroyed, and he gets sold off to Southeast Asia...

Su Chengyu arrives to find himself facing a hellish start: the final round of the Starlight Cup show match! All Song Zhiyi has to do is take out one monster, and they can coast to victory. But in a panic over what awaits him, Su Chengyu's hand slips, and he and Song Zhiyi both get wiped out!

The whole arena falls silent.

After the match, under Song Zhiyi's icy stare, Su Chengyu gathers his courage and tries to earn a little goodwill to save his own skin. But what comes out is: "With me here, don't even think about stealing the spotlight! If you've got the guts, take me on!"

Su Chengyu: "..."

Damn this plot's forced behavior!

To stay alive, Su Chengyu keeps walking a tightrope between "bullying the villain" and "secretly showing him kindness."

Just when he thinks he's as good as dead, things somehow go his way...

Song Zhiyi's gaze changes.

The ice melts, replaced by curiosity, by burning intensity... by a possessiveness that closes in on him step by step!

Song Zhiyi's affection for him skyrockets. Not only does he stop holding a grudge, he declares, "I want you."

Fall in love?

With the villain who's going to grind his bones to dust in the future?

Terrified, Su Chengyu buys a ticket and makes a midnight escape!

Beyond the airplane window, freedom seems to beckon.

Just as he begins to relax, a low, dangerous, achingly familiar voice suddenly sounds above him: "My little boyfriend, where do you think you're going?"

Su Chengyu: !!! Help! How did he catch up with me?!

Song Zhiyi once thought he was destined to sink into the mire, bearing the weight of his original sin until he rotted away.

Until that boy, blazing like fire and charging straight ahead, crashed recklessly yet right on target into his arms.

In an instant, the endless night broke into dawn, and light filled the sky.
