Only the Villain Can See What's on My Mind

Shen Yan transmigrates into a book he’s read three times. He doesn’t become the protagonist, but the vicious cannon fodder destined for a tragic death. When he opens his eyes, the people in the courtyard are discussing how to take his life. The System arrives late with an even more absurd revelation: He and the villain his original host imprisoned in the back hills share a single life. If the villain’s lamp goes out, Shen Yan won’t survive either. So Shen Yan has no choice but to rescue the prisoner who hates him to the core. He says all the cruel things, yet uses his hands to draw out poison, keep the lamp burning, and take blows meant for him. The Seventh Prince has gone mad. That’s what everyone in the palace says. Only that person can see it. Only he can see Shen Yan’s thoughts split off into a shadow, acting out everything he leaves unsaid. He’s the only one in the world who can see it.
