Deep in the Asura Arena is a sprawling angst fest combining melodramatic substitution, revenge, and rebirth. The protagonist, a fake young master, is surrounded by four unhinged heirs from wealthy families. They torment him body and soul until he fails to get his revenge and instead dies by suicide after falling into depression. Reborn, he still can't escape the asura arena.
Shen Jingchao, a favored child of heaven, transmigrates into a book and becomes the villainous cannon-fodder true young master who shares his name.
The true young master grew up in the countryside, naive and ignorant. Jealous that the fake young master, Shen Jingyan, was adored by everyone, he repeatedly tried to harm him, only to die in an "accidental" car crash after falling off a cliff.
When Shen Jingchao arrives, the true young master has just been welcomed back into his wealthy birth family, but is mistreated at every turn.
The original story's four male leads also frequently come around to make their presence felt, warning him not to think he can take Shen Jingyan's place.
Shen Jingchao is bad with faces. "...Sorry, who are you?"
-
The four male leads gradually realize that Shen Jingchao, who used to be so timid around them, now looks at them differently.
His gaze has grown lofty and dismissive, as if he looks down on everyone.
He's even more dazzling than Shen Jingyan.
They can't help wanting to break his spirit and destroy him.
So they all rush to shift their attention to him.
Yet every tactic proves useless against Shen Jingchao, while their corporation comes under a relentless assault from a mysterious person...
-
Shen Jingchao has had face blindness since childhood and can only recognize people by physical features such as their voices and hairstyles.
After transmigrating into the book, it troubles him.
There are always people of unknown identity picking fights with him and saying incomprehensible things.
The only place he can find some peace is beside Gu Yunzhang, a newly wealthy man rumored to be paralyzed from the waist down.
Shen Jingchao takes the opportunity to propose a marriage alliance, and Gu Yunzhang agrees.
They move in together ahead of time.
But gradually, Shen Jingchao keeps seeing a well-dressed man walking around the villa with ease, and that man keeps trying to put his arms around him.
Shen Jingchao snaps, "Sir, please behave yourself."
"..." Gu Yunzhang, who never intended to hide his condition from Shen Jingchao, grows more helpless each time.
He has no choice but to pull his not-yet-wed celestial beauty into his wheelchair and make sure he gets a good look at him.
