A car accident gave scandal-ridden celebrity Yan Jiu self-awareness, revealing that he was the villainous cannon fodder in a novel who had committed every evil deed. His current plans included—but were not limited to— Ditching his burdensome child, coveting the protagonist top’s love interest’s fortune, scheming to harm the innocent protagonist bottom, and preparing to kick his bankrupt older brother while he’s down. In the end, the protagonist couple and his older brother joined forces to send him to prison for life.

Will she appear on the show?" Yan Jiu, unwilling to acknowledge that person, replied, "...Dead." That night, the official Si Corporation account reposted a tweet— @Si Yue: Still alive.
