Playing the Villain Seriously Every Day

Li Zhaorong transmigrates into a book and becomes its greatest villain. He's the sort of person who takes things as they come, so since he'd been cast as the villain, he decides to play the role properly and wait for the protagonist and his friends to come kill him.

One day, on a whim, Li Zhaorong sneaks off to see what the protagonist looks like. He finds a scrawny, battered little boy hauling water and washing a huge pile of clothes. Li Zhaorong can't help thinking, Just as expected of the protagonist: a born misfortune, with his father dead, his mother dead, and his whole family gone. His early life is so miserable he's practically a ghost, but later he'll become powerful enough to rule the world.

Li Zhaorong is just about to take a look and leave when the protagonist faints from hunger and exhaustion. Li Zhaorong looks around guiltily and silently tells himself, I only came to look. I didn't do anything!

Looking at the little boy lying on the ground, Li Zhaorong grits his teeth, picks him up, and carries him toward his own lair. He can't help grumbling inwardly, Your life is so miserable that you might die before you even grow up. Then all my waiting would be for nothing. I'd better raise you myself. It's not because I feel sorry for you. I'm a great villain, after all!
