Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.Contemporary college student Ye Leyao died suddenly from staying up late, and found himself transported into a world where several novels merged together, becoming the useless adopted son of the prestigious Huo family.
The good news is that, apart from him, everyone else in the family is a big shot. Eldest Brother Huo is a legendary figure in the business world, Second Brother Huo is a top actor in the entertainment industry, and Third Brother Huo is a skilled esports player and boss.
The bad news is, these big shots are all antagonists, and none of them have good endings.
Even worse news is that, upon waking up, he finds himself in the middle of a cheap romance involving Second Brother, who is oblivious to the fact that the child in his lover’s belly isn’t his seed at all!
Ye Leyao couldn’t help but scream inwardly: “Aaaaaahhhh—seriously? This romance-idiot still doesn’t know the child in his lover’s belly isn’t his?!”
All eyes in the family suddenly turn towards him. The second brother even stumbles.
Everyone: What?!
The top-tier Huo family adopted a young troublemaker some years ago.
Initially, nobody in the family paid him any mind. That is, until they could all hear Ye Leyao’s inner thoughts—
Just as Father Huo brings his down-and-out friend home. Ye Leyao’s inner voice: “Oh, so this is the little seductress trying to seduce Father Huo, plotting to make Mother Huo and Father Huo divorce, and wrecking the Huo family?”
Father Huo’s pupils dilate: “!” That night, before Ye Leyao can subtly hint to Mother Huo, the little seductress is personally “thrown” out by Father Huo.
During breakfast at home, Eldest Brother Huo takes a video call discussing crucial shipment matters with his assistant.
Ye Leyao perks up his ears, muttering to himself: “Why do I vaguely remember a typhoon changing course to pass through this route in a few days? Big Brother’s business deal is definitely going down.”
Eldest Brother Huo: “…” He immediately changes the shipping route with his assistant. Sure enough, five days later, news came that the original route was hit by a typhoon.
Afterwards, Eldest Brother Huo transfers five million into Ye Leyao’s account. Ye Leyao is astonished. Eldest Brother Huo tries to remain composed, saying calmly, “Take it, you’ve earned it.”
Third Brother Huo isn’t home often. After the league ends, he brings his newly recruited team members home for dinner. Just as they enter the house, Ye Leyao stares keenly at his new teammates.
Third Brother Huo is about to warn Ye Leyao against premature romance, when he hears Ye Leyao whispering in his mind: “They’re handsome alright, but unfortunately, they’re moles sent by the rival team.”
Third Brother Huo: “!!!” That night, Third Brother Huo begins investigating and not only discovers that the new teammates are moles from the rival team, but also finds out that his most trusted assistant has been secretly gathering data on their team!
A week later, another ten million appeared in Ye Leyao’s account.
Ye Leyao, holding the money happily: “Third Brother, you’re more generous than Big Brother!”
Just then, Eldest Brother Huo passes by: “…”
As a supporting character in the novel, Ye Leyao’s biggest dream is to save up money and flee with his family of antagonists when they hit rock bottom. Little did he expect that all these villains in his family would not only avoid disaster but thrive in their careers, and he would end up soaring with them.

It makes sense to him that things don't always go according to the novels because the characters are now real people and, of course, might react differently than their fictional source stipulates. He doesn't think he has to follow the plot or get back "to the real world".
He's dead in his original reality and is totally fine with being in a new, fiction-based one, he feels 100% at home and belonging to this novel-hot-pot-world. Although MC becomes an actor, he's not a genius, not even good, and that's completely okay with basically everyone, his fans are with him because they know that wherever he is there will be melons to eat.
Instead of illogically being the movie king with no effort, rhyme or reason, he's the king of gossip no one cares about in terms of acting talent. I really, really love how the writer mixed these different novels, she did it with a lot of humour and it still makes perfect sense.
People from ABO novels think it's normal for men to be pregnant, people from realistic novels are shocked at first, then come to the conclusion that it's probably just rare and that's why they didn't know that men can be mothers. MC's family situation was handled so, so well.
He's adopted, his parents were close friends of his adopted mother but the whole family treats him like their real son/brother.
Even so, Huo-Parents are perfectly happy with MC not calling them mom and dad, they understand that MC remembers his biological parents and don't even want to steal that spot in his heart.
They know he loves them just as much even when they are "only" Huo-ma and Huo-pa, and they don't let anyone criticise their relationship.
That's the plot, everyone follows MC to find good gossip, and there's A LOT of it at every corner.
Which makes sense considering that he seems to have read nothing but brainless dog blood webnovels. There's no "China best country" anywhere.
There's no "wamen bad" anywhere.
No overpowered, overly perfect MC or ML, they are both somewhat idiots, flawed and loveable. If you like comedy and are tired of stereotypical book-transmigration/entertainment circle novels, then try this one.
It makes fun of every trope, premise and topic you can think of, it's very solid satire and quite interesting to see how MC, an avid reader of low-quality webnovels, reacts like most of us do when we come across these overused, bad plots. It's hilarious, healthy, and heart-warming. Edit: Finished.
There's an unexpected twist that gives the story the edge that was still missing and ties up all loose ends.
Kudos to the translator and all readers for not using spoilery tags. I don't say this often - it's a perfect novel. I enjoyed every second I spent with it. Just to address something I've seen in another review:
One minor-side character induces vomiting to keep slim, she doesn't have an eating disorder, it's just a way to maintain her idol-figure while having to eat massive amounts due to her foodie image.
This is something that happened several times in real life and is greatly shamed by fans and the public, it has nothing to do with eating disorders.
These idols have no problem with their body-image and can stop at any time, they do it only because even with sport, they couldn't hold their "ideal" weight and still mok-bang.
This is a cultural thing that can be easily misunderstood by Westerners.
