Upon being on the brink of death after suffering three years of torture, he was thrown into a river.

Scarred physically and mentally, he ended up being washed up at an eccentric yet peaceful place he had never heard of before. Having nowhere to go, he began working as a helper in the government office, apathetic about his life.

Will he be able to heal from his traumas and rediscover the beauty of life?

Tldr: A healing story of a transmigrator who slowly recovers from his trauma, finding happiness and fluffy romance in a strange yet peaceful place.

Author's summary:

An average, normal university student transmigrates into the royal family in another world, where he becomes one of the successors of the throne. Life in the palace is inevitably difficult though, what with all the scheming enemies around him. This man’s only wish in this world is to be able to protect his “younger brother,” and for that, he’ll do anything–whether by hook or by crook–to ensure his brother’s safety and have him succeed the throne.

The man never once expected, though, that the person whom he swears to protect would be the one to stab him in the back. He got locked in a dungeon where he was tortured for three years. And when he was on the brink of death, his body was thrown away into the river.

When he wakes up, he finds himself in an eccentric and peaceful place, where everyone is suspiciously more than what they seem… <<less

The most impressive thing that the timid and cowardly Wen ZhiChu has done in his entire life was rescuing two grade schoolers who had ignored the red light and crossed the streets recklessly. As for the result of his one-time bravery, he also sent himself off.... more>>

When he woke up again, he discovered that he had transmigrated into a book as a cannon fodder villain who keeps hopping back and forth on the edge of a minefield— ultimately, receiving the ending of sleeping on the streets for offending the protagonist.

Wen ZhiChu, who’s been told by his mom since young that he has a delicate body and couldn’t sleep on the streets: !

Just as Wen ZhiChu planned to stop participating in this world’s story plot and become an insignificant, transparent character, he accidentally became bound to a villain system. If he didn’t follow the original plotline to cause trouble for the protagonist, he’d be deducted money and forced to sleep on the streets even sooner than the original story.

Wen ZhiChu: : )

Wen ZhiChu was forced onto the path of a villain. Every time he sees the protagonist’s strong, robust body, even his calves start trembling.

One punch would probably K.O. two of him.

The villain’s mission: Destroy the protagonist’s lunch.

Looking at the protagonist sitting to the side, Wen ZhiChu swallowed his saliva, threw a handful of rainbow-colored skittles into the food, and then ran off immediately.

Qin JiaShu: ……

The Villain’s mission: Ruin the Protagonist’s main love line.

Heading to the protagonist’s locker, Wen ZhiChu scooped out the mountain pile of love letters inside, leaving behind only his own falsified love letter.

Qin JiaShu, who just happened to see everything after returning from playing basketball: ……

The Villain’s mission: Destroy the protagonist’s belonging.

Holding a needle, Wen ZhiChu stealthily arrived at the school’s parking lot and prepared to puncture the protagonist’s car tire.

Who’d expect the utterly unreliable Wen ZhiChu would bump straight into the protagonist this time.

Wen ZhiChu hastily hid the needle behind his back.

Two of him was not even enough for the other to beat up.

The protagonist raised his hand. Wen ZhiChu subconsciously covered his head.

Qin JiaShu patted the front bumper of the car: “Get in, I’ll drive you.”

Wen ZhiChu: ? ? ?

All of Qin JiaShu’s bros knew that about the dark and withdrawn, annoying pest in the neighboring class, who came over every few days to cause trouble.

Once Qin JiaShu was buying a sports drink at the store, sure enough, that annoying pest followed over as well. Not surprisingly, that annoying pest snatched away the item that Qin JiaShu wanted to buy in advance and even opened it to take a drink right in front of him.

Qin JiaShu stopped him. Right before they thought he’d teach that annoying as*hole a lesson, Qin JiaShu actually grabbed the already opened sports drink from Wen ZhiChu’s hand, tossed his head back, and started drinking it.

Qin JiaShu: Very sorry, but I’ve already reached happy ending. <<less
