Summary from Novel Updates:
Ye Zexi transmigrated as the big villain in a danmei novel, who shares the same name as him. Then, he found out that everyone regards him as an imaginary enemy.
In this regard, he adheres to only one principle: Don’t want to fight, take everything you want.
In the boy group’s audition show:
The team member wanted to take the C [Center] position from Ye Zexi.
Ye Zexi took the initiative to withdraw for the sake of being lazy.
The team member was complacent and thought that Ye Zexi had stage fright and the team member was determined to win.
After the performance, Ye Zexi took first place.
Team member: ?
The instructor asked everyone about their purpose to join the competition.
Other contestants: Dreams, because we love the stage!
Ye Zexi: In order to go home and inherit the family property.
Other contestants: ???
Unexpectedly, not only did Ye Zexi fail to be lazy, he also became more popular.
3.5 STARS - I LIKED IT
MY REVIEW:
I loved Ye Zexi! He died unexpectedly due to overworking, so he just wanted to take it easy and be a lazy rich second generation when he realized that he transmigrated into a novel as a villainous character that had the same name as him. Unfortunately for him, he transmigrated right in the beginning of an idol competition show, and his rich dad just cut off all of his money. Now, he had to do well in the show to earn living fees lol.
His character was hilarious. He kept on trying to find ways to retire, but it never worked out! Him being oblivious to the male lead's obvious affection for him was also hilarious because the whole world knew about it EXCEPT for him. And his whole internal struggle on why they wouldn't work out was freaking HILARIOUS. I've never seen someone in so much denial as Ye Zexi regarding his *cough* 0/1 attribute lmao. However, after they got together, the plot started slowing down with a lot of time skips.
The whole Tang Jing arc in the first half kind of got annoying after a while. He just kept on trying to brush his sense of existence in front of Ye Zexi because he was super competitive and looked down on him from his previous attitude. He finally changed later on, but it was still pretty annoying to read about him for a while.
However, I was pleasantly surprised to finally read a story where the stepmother and stepbrother weren't vicious antagonists! The family harmony was great! I loved how Ye Zexi got along with his stepmom really well in the end compared to his dad lol.
Overall, a pretty amusing transmigration story about a guy who wanted to be a salted fish but became popular instead.
