Lin Jinwen, a man with the habits of a seasoned bureaucrat, spends his free time at home—never going out, never dating. His pastime?

His worldview shatters when he finds a cannon fodder character with the same name as his own killed off in the opening. Squinting through the haze of alcohol, he furiously leaves a one-star review: **"What kind of 'male wives' can get pregnant?! Show me ONE man who can bear a child, damn it!"** After sobering up, Lin Jinwen realizes he’s transmigrated into the very same danmei novel—as the universally despised wastrel **"Lin,"** who gets drugged and caught in bed with a "male wife" during his grandmother’s birthday celebration, then beaten to death by his own father before even surviving **300 words**.
