Luo Ziyu transmigrated into a novel about a universally hated protagonist trapped in a tragic romance, taking the place of the character who shared his name.
The protagonist’s family, friends, and lover always realized their feelings too late. They would only wake up after tormenting him nearly to death.
Newly transmigrated Luo Ziyu: What? Isn’t this insane?
He wasn’t about to put up with all that physical and emotional abuse.
The dorm supervisor who spoke cruelly to him? He wasn’t going to indulge him.
He gave him a piece of his mind, packed his bags, and moved into a rental. Whenever he spotted him at school from ten meters away, he turned and left without sparing him a glance.
Go show off to the air, why don’t you!
An unreasonable, biased older brother with a head full of tacky rich-family melodrama?
He deleted him on WeChat and blocked his number. No way was he going to family gatherings. Who did he think he was, some old-money aristocrat?
Before transmigrating, Luo Ziyu had been an only child. Who wanted a stupid brother?
And the original body’s crush and childhood friend? He could get lost and stay eighteen miles away. Let him try enjoying that ambiguous two-timing act again!
After a series of moves, Luo Ziyu arrived at one great truth: men are so damn fickle.
The original protagonist had practically fawned over that whole group and ruined himself for them. Now that Luo Ziyu was ignoring them, they had come running back to play devoted lovers.
Get lost, all of you! He wasn’t getting involved in their melodramatic boys’ love story!
The inevitable consequence of getting too carried away was a sudden reversal of fortune.
The new friend Luo Ziyu had made was a little strange.
He was handsome, considerate, and good-tempered. He was also a great cook, and Luo Ziyu loved his food. To take care of Luo Ziyu, who couldn’t do a thing for himself, he even invited him to move into his huge mansion.
But.
Hey, buddy, why are you always looking at me like that?
Buddy, your hands are so big. Buddy, you smell so good...
Wait.
He was straight!

Upcoming story in the author’s collection: I’ll Fish Them All, So What? Give it a try if you like this sort of thing.
The thing Jiang Ci wanted most in life was to have lots of money and then put on a coy voice and say:
“I don’t want lots and lots of money. I want lots and lots of love.”
There were plenty of people around him willing to make that scene happen. Some were practically throwing themselves at him, with “I’m happy to let you take advantage of me” written all over their faces.
But that still wasn’t enough.
Not for Jiang Ci.
He searched the vast sea for a needle, picking and choosing until he reeled in the big fish Xie Zhiyan.
His wish came true.
Everyone in their circle said Xie Zhiyan had been blinded by beauty, keeping such a shallow, brainless little plaything by his side. In secret, they bet on when he would come to his senses and dump Jiang Ci.
But no one expected Jiang Ci to be the one who dumped him.
-
A rainy night. A bookstore entrance. A Maybach.
Xie Zhiyan asked him why he had left.
Jiang Ci: “...”
Because I don’t just want to flirt shamelessly with people online. I really do want lots of money and lots of love, damn it!
