When the Villain Becomes Cute

Shen Yu transmigrates into the body of Zhao Rui, the detestable villain from a school drama novel destined for a painful end. His mission: stick to the script to survive. But when his attempts at villainy keep backfiring, turning him into a bumbling comedic relief, the male lead, Lu Zhixuan, starts seeing him not as an enemy, but as... cute? Now, Shen Yu must navigate a crumbling plotline, an increasingly intrigued male lead, and the terrifying realization that his villainous antics might just be leading him into an unexpected, and potentially romantic, disaster.

The scent of freshly polished wood and expensive cologne hung heavy in the air of the elite classroom. Shen Yu, now Zhao Rui, gripped the sleek, tailored fabric of his uniform, his hands trembling slightly.

He caught his reflection in the window—sharp, aristocratic features, piercing, hawk-like eyes. "No. No, no, no," he whispered, the memories of Zhao Rui's tragic, humiliating death in the novel, 'The Fateful Encounter', flashing before his eyes. "This is bad. This is really bad."

Just as panic began to truly set in, the classroom door slid open. A hush fell over the room. A tall figure entered, moving with an effortless grace. His school uniform was crisp, slightly undone, radiating an aura of cool confidence. His dark eyes, sharp and intense, made people instinctively lower their gazes.

Lu Zhixuan. The male lead. The one destined to kill him.

Their eyes met. A flicker of recognition, then coldness, crossed Lu Zhixuan's face. His jaw tightened. "Zhao Rui," he said, his deep voice sending a chill down Shen Yu's spine. "What are you plotting this time?"

Shen Yu gulped, forcing a smirk, flipping his hair with exaggerated arrogance. "Hmph! Just you wait, Lu Zhixuan! I'll definitely make Bai Xue mine!" The words came out more like a nervous declaration than a villainous threat.

Lu Zhixuan raised an eyebrow, a hint of amusement flickering in his gaze. "Oh?" he murmured, his lips curving slightly. "I'd like to see you try."

Shen Yu's stomach dropped. That wasn't how the scene was supposed to go. This was going to be harder than he thought.
