Guo Lantai Transmigrated into a Book

(This is a dual-male lead story, set in an alternate universe where same-sex marriage is legal. Anything is possible, and the author has the final say. Please don't take it too seriously. If you don't like it, don't read it. Thank you for understanding!)

Guo Lantai had transmigrated into a book.

That's right! He had merely clicked on a reading recommendation pushed by some app, noticed a cannon-fodder side character with his exact same name, and impulsively started reading. One look turned into an addiction, and he couldn't stop!

This was a CEO-themed novel titled The CEO's White Moonlight Became a Top Star, and the author had an incredibly punchable pen name: "You're Itching for a Beating, Come Hit Me."

Every time Guo Lantai mentioned that name, he couldn't help but curse a few times. He wanted nothing more than to track down this "itching for a beating" author, give him a solid thrashing, and then rename him "You're Courting Death, Come Let Me Fulfill You!"

Just to see if that would send him on his way!

The entire story focused on the wealthy CEO Cen Muxiao. After dominating the business world, he dumped his arranged marriage partner and used all his resources to help his "white moonlight" become a top star in the entertainment industry. In the end, the two of them ran toward each other and finally became a happily married couple.

In the book, while the white moonlight appeared noble and holy on the surface—perfect in the CEO's eyes—he was actually a quintessential, insidious green tea bitch.

In the early years, before the CEO was a true powerhouse, the white moonlight kept him on a string, never accepting his confessions. Later, under the guise of pursuing his "ideals," he dumped the CEO and went abroad to strive for success. He was gone for three years.

When the CEO reached the pinnacle of his life, becoming one of the wealthiest men on the rankings and entering into an arranged marriage, the white moonlight made a high-profile appearance at the wedding.

He pretended to wish the CEO a happy marriage, but in reality, he was there to stir up trouble.

In other authors' works, the protagonists were either kind and pure or righteous and powerful. How did it happen that in the hands of "You're Itching for a Beating, Come Hit Me," the black-hearted could act white, while the fool died a miserable death and the villain triumphed?

That's right, the fool in the book was the CEO's arranged marriage partner—the original Guo Lantai.

He had originally agreed to be a pawn in the marriage to save his family's company, but one look at the CEO was all it took for him to fall head over heels.

Cen Muxiao had money, looks, and a physique to die for. Forget about marrying him; just having the chance to stand beside him was enough to make others green with envy!

It wasn't a bad deal!

So, Guo Lantai didn't resist or play hard to get. Marriage? Let's get married, the sooner the better!

Unfortunately, it was a marriage in name only. Not only did he and the CEO have no real relationship, but the CEO's white moonlight kept haunting them, stealing the CEO's heart and leaving Guo Lantai as an eyesore.

After being schemed against time and time again, the original owner was finally kicked out of the house and died in a car accident on the road!

Hmph! What a total sucker!

The reason Guo Lantai transmigrated into the book was precisely because he had spent several nights binge-reading, and in his excitement to seek justice for the original owner, he couldn't catch his breath and was literally angered to death!

He was the biggest sucker of all, and the original owner definitely couldn't compare!

Why say that? Because he had transmigrated into the cannon-fodder side character who shared his name, Guo Lantai!

You have to understand, if it weren't for that name, how could a fine young man like him have obsessed over a BL novel like those fujoshis?

And a cliché, dog-blooded, dime-a-dozen one at that!

By the time he realized he had transmigrated, he could have written eighty thousand words of complaints, but he had more pressing matters to deal with right now!

Namely, what point in the story had he arrived at?

Why was the first thing he saw upon opening his eyes a cold, dark... handsome face?

And he was being forcefully pinned against the wall by a large hand!

His back pressed against the embossed wall, and a piercing pain radiated through him!

Yes! Even though he had just transmigrated, his consciousness was clear. This wasn't some romantic wall-pin; this was a damn "shove-against-the-wall" kill!

The tall man before him was warning him in his own way!

"Guo Lantai, I'm warning you, if you try to pull any more stunts, then this marriage can just be called off!"

Guo Lantai, whose mind had raced through countless thoughts in a flash, finally sorted out the situation.

The person in front of him was the male lead of the book, the wealthy CEO Cen Muxiao, and his timing was awkward enough.

There was a description in the book about the wedding: the CEO's white moonlight, Song Anning, suddenly appeared at the venue. In a moment of desperation, the original owner, wanting to stake his claim, had foolishly kissed Cen Muxiao in front of everyone.

He carefully recalled the original owner's memories. Cen Muxiao's first reaction had been to shove him away violently, then turn his head to look at Song Anning in the audience, his eyes filled with panic.

Song Anning clearly hadn't expected to see such a scene, standing there stunned, looking deeply wounded!

Tsk tsk! What a pair of infatuated, miserable lovers!

However, staring at those two sexy, thin lips, Guo Lantai wanted to curse the heavens again. Why couldn't he have transmigrated a little earlier?

His own soul-kiss was still intact, he hadn't tasted a single bit of sweetness, and now he had to bear the CEO's wrath for the original owner. Who could he complain to?

Fortunately, the CEO was the CEO. Even after being taken advantage of and having his white moonlight show up, he still managed to keep his composure and finish the wedding ceremony.

The power of a business marriage was truly something to behold!

"I say, Brother Xiao, the media is here. We can't have no reaction at all, right? You were the one who said we have to play the part!"

Guo Lantai turned his head to the side as he argued; he was afraid he'd lose his mind again if he kept staring at those lips.

"Don't call me Brother Xiao, you don't deserve it!"

Cen Muxiao's voice was cold enough to freeze.

"Then Muxiao? Cen Muxiao? Or Mr. Cen?"

Guo Lantai simply gathered his courage, placed a hand on the man's chest, and pushed him away slightly, offering a well-meaning suggestion: "How about CEO Cen?"

There was no need for Cen Muxiao to distance himself; Guo Lantai was taking the initiative to be cold. Surely no one could be more sensible than him!

However, this question of his did indeed make Cen Muxiao pause slightly. He took a step back, widening the distance between them, pondered for a moment, and then spoke somewhat awkwardly, "Sir, I suppose!"

Guo Lantai was no stranger to this form of address; the original host in the story had called him that as well. In any case, it certainly couldn't be anything like "honey" or "baby." He believed that if he ever dared to call him that, the man before him would snap his neck right then and there.

"Then, sir, the wedding isn't over yet. Shouldn't we head back out?"

Cen Muxiao had used the opportunity of returning to the lounge to change clothes to give him a warning. His attitude was cooperative enough now, wasn't it?

Guo Lantai had already made up his mind. Since he had transmigrated here, he would just face it calmly.

The CEO was just a big, easily agitated wolfhound. He would just have to humble himself a little and stroke the fur the right way!

His main opponent, however, was still that Song Anning!

Heh, it was perfect that he had returned. Guo Lantai held the plotline in his hands. As long as he stayed one step ahead in everything, was there any reason to fear he couldn't punish a mere Song Anning?

Whether he was a white lotus or a green tea brother, with him around, he wouldn't get his way!

And as for that big jerk Cen Muxiao, hmph, he would definitely make him see clearly exactly what kind of face Song Anning had once his skin was peeled back!
