Chi Nian transmigrated into the protagonist bottom of a sweet romance novel and has to complete the story's plot before he can return to the real world.
In the novel, he's an executive director at a well-known investment bank. He has a rival at work, or rather, a ridiculously handsome and charming husband, He Jing.
By day, He Jing clashes with Chi Nian in meetings.
At night, He Jing clashes with Chi Nian in bed.
They act like bitter enemies, but in private they're all sweetness, kisses, and cuddles in stairwells, break rooms, and locked lounges.
This is how the novel puts it:
[He Jing caught both of Chi Nian's pale wrists in one hand and pinned him against the wall. He lowered his head and kissed his lips again and again, until Chi Nian's legs went weak and he melted into a puddle.
Unable to take any more, and afraid someone would see them, Chi Nian could only beg for mercy, his voice hoarse. “Honey~ Come back for more tonight...”]
Chi Nian felt his scalp tingle. Why hadn't this seemed so embarrassing when he read it?
But to return to the real world, Chi Nian was going all in.
But something was off. He Jing acting cold and hostile in front of other people was one thing, but why did he look at Chi Nian with that same irritated expression when they were alone in the break room?
Chi Nian waited for He Jing to pin him against the wall, but the other man did nothing for ages. Instead, he mocked Chi Nian and started to leave.
Chi Nian gritted his teeth and blocked his way.
To keep the plot on track, he began reciting the embarrassing line: “Honey~ Come back for more tonight...”
He Jing frowned. “Tonight?”
He Jing thought Chi Nian planned to sneak in that night and steal his team's trade secrets, so he had his subordinates keep watch all night. They didn't see so much as a fly.
The next day, He Jing realized he'd been played. He grabbed Chi Nian's hand and pinned him behind the office door.
Chi Nian thought to himself: Oh my god, is it finally happening?
He Jing's face was full of anger. “Chi Nian, what are you trying to pull?”
Suppressing the goosebumps all over his body, Chi Nian started reciting his lines. “What am I trying to pull? Haven't you already done whatever you want with me? Honey~”
He Jing: ...
He nearly called the police.
Just when Chi Nian thought he couldn't be more humiliated, the System suddenly warned him: “Plot error.”
Chi Nian was dumbfounded. “What's wrong?”
Wasn't he supposed to kiss and cuddle with He Jing, then go home and have sex that night?
The System said coldly, “Error. Wrong plot. Wrong characterization. Everything is wrong.”
Chi Nian was speechless. “Then what exactly is right?”
After reading the plot displayed by the System, Chi Nian was shocked. “Oh my god, where did this plot come from?”
The System replied, “The original story.”
Chi Nian asked, “Then what was the one I read?”
The System gave a mischievous smile. “You idiot. You read fanfiction.”
Chi Nian was devastated.
Who could do something so awful? Turn a corporate battle story into an erotic romance, and write sworn enemies as lovers, kissing and having sex?
What the hell?
Just as Chi Nian prepared to rally, set things right, and follow the original plot by fighting He Jing to the death, He Jing suddenly wrapped an arm around his waist. “Didn't you say I'd done whatever I wanted with you? I learned a new move, the Italian chandelier. I want to try it tonight.”
Chi Nian: ?
He wanted to call the police.
