The charismatic Emperor Xie Mingzhou dazzled with his literary brilliance and swept through battlefields with martial prowess. After transmigrating to the modern era, he finds himself in the body of a worthless stand-in abandoned by a scumbag. The original host clung to love despite betrayal, but the cold-hearted actor tossed out a card: "He’s back. Know your place." His Majesty’s response: "That’s it?" --- To the world, Xie Mingzhou was once seen as an uncultured废物废物废物废物废物 (waste). Until, on the *National Treasures* variety show, he effortlessly exposed a counterfeit and unraveled hidden schemes. Haters mocked online: "The script is too ridiculous!" The next day, a casually painted ink artwork of his fetched a sky-high price. Tycoons lamented: "Money means nothing—art is priceless!" Haters: ??? Later, Xie Mingzhou’s portrayals—a rogue assassin, a chivalrous swordsman, a Republic-era opera singer, and a golden-age emperor—each outshone the last. Antis waited relentlessly for his "cultured persona" to crumble. Instead, they witnessed a throne reclaimed and a lost civilization blooming anew. --- At the awards ceremony, the host asked, "Mr. Xie, what’s your ideal partner?" Xie Mingzhou smirked. "A beauty, naturally." What defines beauty? For instance: Fu Yan—the double-award-winning actor who once cast Xie Mingzhou aside like trash, crowned as the industry’s most gorgeous man. The audience wondered: were these two destined to reunite? Descending the stage with his trophy, Xie Mingzhou’s elegance vanished as CEO Fu pulled him into a cold embrace. The stoic, composed head of the Fu Group lost control for the first time, whispering fiercely into his ear: "Your Majesty, how does this humble subject fare?" "You?" Xie Mingzhou tilted his chin up, teasing. "CEO Fu is noble, steady, wise as pines... I—" “Hm?” The man’s gaze darkened. “—adore you.” In their past life, he was His Majesty’s unwavering subject. In this one, he’s his heart’s desire. --- *Charismatic, dominant, and unrestrained—a self-proclaimed top emperor (actually a bottom) × Cold, "ascetic" jealousy-prone CEO (the real top). A pair of ruler and subject, bound across lifetimes for mutual salvation. 1v1.*
