Jing Ruan grew up in the Lower Fifth District. He always fantasized about hitting it big one day; he was sick of living a bitter life, wanted to live like a high-society elite, and believed he wasn’t inferior to anyone else.

Heaven smiled upon him, and Jing Ruan transmigrated into a book.

He transmigrated into the young master of a wealthy family.

His beautiful life began the very day he entered the book.

Yan Yihe was a proud son of heaven—lofty, looking down on the masses, with countless people trying to flatter him. But he never imagined that one day, someone as morally bankrupt and despicable as Jing Ruan would actually try to fawn over him.

The desire and intent to utilize him in the other party’s eyes were far too obvious.

It was practically laughable to him.

In his eyes, Jing Ruan had no bottom line and no sense of shame. He was entirely focused on using Yan Yihe to climb the social ladder, even going so far as to use clumsy methods like dressing in women’s clothing to seduce him.

So, Yan Yihe put on the hypocritical guise of a “Mr. Nice Guy.”

He played along in a drama of love with him.

He let Jing Ruan believe that, after overcoming countless hardships, he had finally hooked him. Yan Yihe lifted him up to a high position, only to then expose everything, tear away his mask, and lay bare all of Jing Ruan’s unsightly secrets before everyone.

Everyone found out that Jing Ruan was a fake young master—a thief who had stolen someone else’s identity.

Yan Yihe stood with his friends on the second-floor balcony.

He leisurely appreciated Jing Ruan’s wretched state.

He watched the prey in the hunting ground with nowhere left to run. Once the prey faced reality, it would ultimately have no choice but to fall into his hands as the hunter.

Panic-stricken, Jing Ruan fled, falling into a pool during his escape.

The beautiful dream shattered, and he returned from the book back to the real world.

What was even harder for Jing Ruan to accept was that he was pregnant.

Yan Yihe thought Jing Ruan was just hiding. He didn’t care; he knew Jing Ruan had nowhere else to go and would fall back into the palm of his hand sooner or later.

But he waited for one month, two months, three months…

He waited stubbornly for five whole years, but he could never find a trace of that person again. Yan Yihe fell from his high horse in the relationship, and from then on, their positions swapped.

He became the pitiful one, searching everywhere but finding nothing.
