"Mmph!"
Shi Wei blinked hard.
Before him was a man with handsome, sharply defined, cold features, who was staring back at him with his eyes open.
Their bodies were pressed tightly together, their noses bumped against each other, and most importantly, their lips were touching without the slightest gap.
He had been sleeping in, having a lovely dream, when suddenly...
His dream had come true?
The stranger's gaze shifted from confusion to shock, and he shoved Shi Wei off him.
The man swiftly stood beside the bed, putting distance between himself and Shi Wei. His tall, straight figure exuded a cool, aristocratic air, and the dark eyes beneath his thick, long lashes were sharp and icy.
"Who let you in here, Shi Wei!"
Utterly confused, Shi Wei surveyed the lavish, luxurious room, its completely unfamiliar furnishings, and this perfect man... He could think of only one possibility.
He was still dreaming.
Since it was a dream... Shi Wei's gaze swept from the man's face over his broad shoulders and narrow waist, then farther down.
He promptly lay back on the bed, nothing but worldly desires in his eyes. "Come on, then."
[You've transmigrated.]
Shi Wei: ?
A mechanical voice abruptly sounded in his mind, seemingly eager to stop whatever he was about to do next.
[Allow me to introduce myself. I'm the system. You have now become Shi Wei, a male supporting character in an entertainment industry novel about a player, a little-known celebrity. You fell for Ji Hanchuan after one day in bed with him, and after marrying him, you kept courting death out of jealousy toward the protagonist. In the end, Ji Hanchuan will take revenge on you for hurting the protagonist.]
Shi Wei sucked in a sharp breath.
"Fell for him after one day in bed... So the part about being in bed has already happened?"
[That's what you're focusing on?] The system seemed unable to understand its host's thinking.
"Yes!"
[Yes, that already happened two years ago. The current situation is this: Ji Hanchuan has returned to the country after two years, and you sneaked into his room hoping to please him. But Ji Hanchuan only has eyes for the protagonist and loathes you. He never touches you again, right up until you die. You...]
"Wait, wait, wait." Shi Wei interrupted the system's formulaic introduction. "I have something to say."
[Go ahead, host.]
"Geneva, give me a fucking refund!!!"
[...]
In his previous life, Shi Wei's main occupation had been acting. Under the control of an exploitative company, he had never had a boyfriend in his entire life, not even for publicity. He had never expected to transmigrate into a novel, only to end up in exactly the same situation.
Fine, he could be a vicious male supporting character, but he also had to be desperately in love with Ji Hanchuan, unwilling to accept anyone else. After two years of neglect and unrequited love, he went looking for trouble with the protagonist and thoroughly enraged Ji Hanchuan. His ending was to suffer an accident while fleeing and become an idiot who only knew how to murmur Ji Hanchuan's name, spending the pitiful, brief remainder of his life within the high walls of a psychiatric hospital.
Ji Hanchuan later turned dark and became the main villain. He regretted not winning the protagonist and not becoming more powerful, but he would never think of Shi Wei again, not even on his deathbed.
After hearing the system's introduction, Shi Wei looked at Ji Hanchuan before him again as though he were something that looked good but was utterly useless.
Ji Hanchuan, baffled by the look he was receiving: ...
He looked perfectly respectable, but he was such a piece of shit!
Shi Wei's heart was as still as water. He no longer had any of those worldly desires.
"Send me away."
[Host, there's no need to rush into demanding a refund. After all, you're the host. As long as you divorce Ji Hanchuan and break free of the plot, you can survive.]
Shi Wei perked up. "Then I can do whatever I want?"
[And there's also the enormous divorce settlement Ji Hanchuan will give you.]
"Really!?"
[Provided you finish your part of the plot.] [The current plot is that your attempt to seduce Ji Hanchuan fails and angers him. Combined with the fact that you've already hurt the protagonist, he should ask you for a divorce very soon.]
"That simple?" Shi Wei could hardly believe it. "I just have to divorce that bastard to successfully get a new life, without being locked up in a psychiatric hospital?"
[Yes, but you must not bring up divorce yourself, nor can you break your character as someone 'deeply in love' with him.]
So easy!
"You think dressing like that will make me interested in you?"
Shi Wei looked up. Ji Hanchuan was staring coldly at him.
He looked down at his outfit and could not help admiring the original owner of this body.
The original really had wanted to succeed. He had come wearing nothing but a loose white shirt, its hem just covering the tops of his thighs. His long, slender, delicate legs were dazzlingly pale, and his toes curled against the gray silk sheets, making his toenails look rounded and pink.
"I waited two years, and you've finally come back to me..." Shi Wei climbed up to kneel on the bed, his slender, pretty fingers beginning to undo his buttons. "Hubby, it's so late. Let's go to bed early."
Shi Wei deliberately slowed down on the last two words, and when he finished speaking, the pink tip of his tongue licked his lips.
"If you want to stay up a little later, hubby, that's fine too. We can carry on with what we were doing."
Remembering the surprise kiss just now, Ji Hanchuan frowned. "What are you doing?"
"Going to bed."
"Put your clothes on and get the hell out." Ji Hanchuan's expression was icy.
"Come roll around with me, hubby." Shi Wei curled his lips in a smile at him and rolled over twice on the bed. Despite acting so wantonly, the tips of his ears were bright red, hidden in his soft, fine black hair.
Bold yet innocent.
"..."
Anger had already clouded Ji Hanchuan's eyes, and his tone carried a warning. "Shi Wei, get out."
Shi Wei lifted his exquisite little face to look at him. Sorrow and confusion quickly welled up in his clear eyes, as though he had been terribly mistreated, and his eyes reddened slightly. "Don't you like it? That wasn't what you said that night two years ago..."
Ji Hanchuan stared at him without speaking.
This face was indeed beautiful, but Shi Wei, who possessed it, was a deeply scheming person who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals!
Everything he had done had become an indelible stain on Ji Hanchuan's past.
"You think you can tempt me looking like that?" Ji Hanchuan sneered. "If I hadn't been set up, do you think I would have been interested in you?"
Humiliated like this, Shi Wei's eyes gradually grew moist. "You're saying you're not interested in me at all?"
"Not at all," Ji Hanchuan said coldly.
"I'm already here. You really don't want me?"
"No."
"You, Ji Hanchuan, would rather jump from here and die outside than touch me again, is that it!?"
"Yes... Hmm?" Ji Hanchuan raised an eyebrow.
"Then that's that. Goodbye!"
Shi Wei swiftly buttoned up his shirt and jumped off the bed, expressionless and without the slightest reluctance.
Ji Hanchuan watched his quick, efficient movements: ...
Since they would be getting divorced soon, after all, Shi Wei paused as he opened the door, still unable to resist looking back at him.
-Was he really a man?
Ji Hanchuan froze.
Unless he had seen wrong, Shi Wei's mouth had not moved just now.
An auditory hallucination?
He followed him, catching Shi Wei's arm with one hand and gripping his chin with the other, fixing him with a sharp stare as he moved closer and closer.
Shi Wei: ???
He really wanted to slap this bastard away, but at the same time, the system's cool voice sounded in his mind, warning him.
[Don't break character.]
The beautiful Shi Wei instantly burst into tears, looking utterly pitiful. "Hubby, I knew you still wanted me!"
-Holy shit! If this bastard dares kiss me, I'll smash his fucking head in!
Ji Hanchuan: ...
