Transmigrated as a Tool in a Sadistic Novel? I Rebelled Against the Script

share time: 2026-01-07 00:30:43

After staying up late to finish a forced-love sadistic novel, office worker Hao Ruijie wakes up as the "tool second male lead"—his role is to pave the way for the male lead Zhao Yujing's "tragic love plot": be framed, imprisoned, and eventually withdraw voluntarily. But Hao Ruijie refuses to follow the script: when splashed with red wine, he hands back barbecue; when locked in a dark room, he live-streams complaints; even when Zhao Yujing "confesses forcefully," he slams the table and says, "Am I here to be a tool? Sorry, I'm here to be my own protagonist!" To his surprise, Zhao Yujing is drawn to his rebellion—from a "cold controller" to a "clingy straightforward lover." While dismantling the sadistic clichés with their "barbecue-flavored" chaos, they twist the "must-be-tragic" plot into a "mutual love story." The more tragic the plot gets, the more they enjoy it—this anti-cliché romance is hilariously addictive!
