Transmigrated into the body of a tycoon's son's ex-boyfriend

The Lu Yu in the dream was good for nothing except his face; he was a completely different person from the dazzling new generation Best Actor candidate on TV now.

A gold-digging opportunist, relying on his good looks, clung to Song Xijin. After being dumped, he shamelessly turned around and started flirting with Song Xijin's acquaintances.

When his advances failed, he kept coming back to pester Song Xijin.

It's a complete shameless leech.

In his dream, after learning about this, he ordered his men to take action without hesitation.

Although Song Xijin was a little unhappy that he had acted on his own initiative, she didn't say much when she found out.

That Lu Yu is just too annoying.

Lu Yu was terrified of dying. After being beaten, he became obedient. After losing a leg, he limped back to his hometown like a stray dog.

From then on, that person faded into obscurity, never becoming a star. I heard he ended up as a cheap male model in nightclubs, and his fate was tragic.

That's the right way.

Tan Yanshan sat in his office, his fingertips pressed against his temples, his brows furrowed tightly. He was almost driven mad by these endless dreams.

This is the correct timeline.

He even started looking through all the information about Lu Yu in real life.

The more I looked, the more alarmed I became.

In real life, after breaking up with Song Xijin, Lu Yu used her looks to enter the entertainment industry.

His first acting role was in a fantasy drama, and his first film was "Addiction." Everything went smoothly for him, with Song Xijin, with whom he had reconciled, standing behind him.

The Lu Yu in the dream was a good-for-nothing, with nothing to his name.

After being dumped, he tried every means to see Song Xijin several times, pestering her like a clown.

Then he disposed of it.

Same face, same person, two completely different lives.

Where does the fork occur?

Tan Yanshan flipped through the documents page by page, until his finger stopped at the last page.

In the dream, Lu Yu tried everything to get close to Song Xijin, but he couldn't get close to her no matter how hard he tried. He was entangled with her several times, but he was defeated every time.

What about in reality?

This person acted, became famous, and stood openly beside Song Xijin, moving into his life. Now they're even preparing to appear on a dating reality show together.

He repeatedly made Song Xijin make exceptions for him, lowering his bottom line time and time again.

Dreams and reality are like two separate lives for Tan Yanshan, with Lu Yu being the only variable.

This person barged into a world that didn't originally belong to him.

A dream is a coincidence.

But so many dreams, one after another, with characters, places, causes and consequences, all fit together perfectly, and can be pieced together to form a complete timeline.

This is definitely not a coincidence.

Tan Yanshan is really being driven crazy.

Sometimes he would wake up in the middle of the night and sit on the bed for a long time, unable to tell who he was.

Is this reality, or is the dream real?

Those dreams felt so real.

The color of the curtains in the bridal chamber, Song Xijin's expression and posture when signing the document, and the words spoken by the guests at the wedding were all clearly visible.

It doesn't seem like something made up by the brain.

That doesn't seem like a dream.

That was his life.

A life that was stolen from me.

Although Song Xijin still didn't love him during that period of her life, their names were on the same piece of paper, and the legal relationship was there, which no one could change.

Unlike now.

What is he now?

Childhood friends are not really childhood friends, friends are not really friends, just an outsider who watched Song Xijin show off his love on a dating reality show?

Tan Yanshan looked up at the financial magazine on his desk.

The cover features Song Xijin, and the title reads "Song's Expansion of Territory in the Past Two Years."

The person in the photo looks spirited and relaxed.

His fingers traced across that face.

Tan Yanshan picked up his phone and opened the Weibo post announcing the official relationship on the reality show.

In the poster, Lu Yu and Song Xijin stand face to face, their foreheads almost touching.

Hundreds of thousands of people in the comments section said they were a perfect match.

A good match?

Tan Yanshan stared at that face, at the smiling eyes in the photo, and waves of resentment surged in his chest.

The broken leg in my dream, the stray dog ​​in my dream scrambling to escape from Beijing—why?

Why should someone who has changed their way of life dare to try and steal his people?

Who changed all of this? Was it Lu Yu himself, or is there something else going on behind the scenes?

Tan Yanshan doesn't want anything else right now; he just wants to figure this out.

He must find out.

Filming of "Love Observation Room" went smoothly and it was released on schedule.

The first episode aired on a Friday night, and many fans were already glued to their TVs or phones/tablets, waiting for it.

The show hasn't even aired yet, but it's already trending on several hot search lists.

At 3 PM, the official Weibo account posted a teaser poster for tonight's episode, replacing the silhouettes of four couples with four pairs of clasped hands.

The comments section is eagerly awaiting more.

Five hours left! I've already ordered takeout; nobody's making me leave the couch tonight.

[I've practically worn a patina out of the pilot episode, and now the main feature is finally here!]

[I can't say for sure about other things, but I have a feeling that the Lu Yu and Song Xijin relationship will become a legend in the history of dating reality shows in China.]

[Production team, I urge you to show all of Mr. Song's scenes without any cuts. Don't force me to beg you on my knees.]

[I heard the female writers on the production team are all obsessed with this season; insider information: the sugar content is seriously off the charts this season!]

Of the four pairs of guests, Lu Yu and Song Xijin are undoubtedly the most popular, with their super topic, bullet screen reservations, and topic views all far surpassing others.

The number of pre-orders on the video website exceeded eight million the day before the broadcast, and the server department was on high alert, expanding its capacity in advance.

The second most popular couple is Wen Xuyan and Tang Simian.

This couple, who have been arguing for three years without breaking up, have surprisingly good public image, with many people waiting to see what new tricks they can come up with in the show.

Tang Simian's fans declared early on: "Our Sisi may not be good at much, but she's number one at creating mischief. The production team made the right choice in hiring her."

Wen Xuyan's fans were much calmer, unanimously saying: "Teacher Wen, take care and try to please your girlfriend."

The program went live promptly at 8 p.m.

After the opening theme song finished playing, the camera first focused on the observation room.

Qi Yue and Liu Yi sat in the middle, Jiang Wenjun on the left, and Mu Qing on the right. The four observers were also on high alert.

"Welcome to 'Love Observation Room'," Qi Yue began, displaying his excellent hosting skills. "This season, we've invited four couples who are at different stages of their relationships."

Liu Yi continued, "For the first episode today, let's take a look at what couples at different stages of their relationships are like at home, and what their interaction patterns are like."

Mu Qing added detachedly from the side, "What a relationship is like at home doesn't matter. The trivialities that happen behind closed doors are what a relationship truly is."

Jiang Wenjun laughed: "Teacher Mu is already pouring cold water on things before we've even started reading."

"I'm being rational," Mu Qing said calmly, with an expression that suggested she was enjoying the show.

The comments section is already flooded with messages.

[Professor Mu Qing, remember your rational face now.]

[The flag has been raised, now we're just waiting to see how good it is!]

[Qi Yue and Liu Yi's quick wit in catching jokes shows they're truly old partners.]

The first couple to appear were Jiang Yunyun and Guan Shuwei.

The footage shows it's 6:30 in the morning, just as dawn is breaking, and the couple has already changed into their workout clothes and headed out.

In the neighborhood, two people were jogging side by side, at the same pace, with the same cadence, and even the swing of their arms looked like they were cut from the same mold.

When he reached the third kilometer, Guan Shuwei suddenly accelerated.

Jiang Yunyun glanced at him and followed without saying a word.

The two men raced each other on the deserted street in the early morning, getting faster and faster, and crossed the finish line almost simultaneously in the last fifty meters.

"You lost today," Guan Shuwei said, panting.

"Guan Shuwei, you committed a foul by crossing the line." Jiang Yunyun unscrewed her water bottle and took a sip.

Guan Shuwei was confused, looking at the bare ground, "Where's the cable here?"

Jiang Yunyun handed the water she had just taken a few sips of to Guan Shuwei, saying, "I know what I'm doing. If you beat me, it's a foul."

In the observation room, Qi Yue laughed out loud: "This couple is really something, they can even run with the spirit of an Olympic final during a morning run."

Jiang Wenjun nodded: "Look at their tacit understanding. They don't need to say anything; one of them just needs to speak quickly so the other understands. They've had a relationship for over ten years. Although they've only been married for a short time, they're like an old married couple."

Back home, Guan Shuwei went into the kitchen to make breakfast and brought out two bowls of noodles.

Jiang Yunyun took a bite and then put down her chopsticks.

"How is it?"

"It's so-so. You seem to have added too much salt again."

"Then don't eat it, I'll order you takeout."

"I'm hungry," Jiang Yunyun said, finishing the whole bowl.

After breakfast, the two of them started a thorough cleaning.

It went wrong as we went along with it.

They compete to see who can clean the windows the fastest, who can mop the largest area, and even folding clothes is timed.

After Guan Shuwei finished folding the last piece, he pressed the stopwatch on his phone and proudly held it up.

Jiang Yunyun shoved her phone in front of him, almost ten seconds faster than him.

In the observation room, Qi Yue laughed so hard he slapped the table: "I think I've figured it out now. The family hierarchy in this family is determined by a stopwatch."

"The fact that they compare everything shows that no one is willing to admit defeat to anyone else," Jiang Wenjun said. "That's how it is in the marriages of athletes; they treat their lives like training sessions and their partners as their best rivals and teammates."

Mu Qing asked a very practical question: "In their family, do the losers do all the work?"

"It's obvious the loser does the work," Qi Yue nodded. "But you see, Guan Shuwei almost always loses. Is he really incapable of winning?"

The comments section was filled with laughter.

[Hahaha, is this what a sports-student couple looks like? They even eat with a competitive spirit!]

I declare this family's method of dividing household chores to be the most advanced in the country, and I recommend it be promoted.

The second couple is Gu Zhixing and Bai Lu.

The home of the award-winning actor and supermodel is decorated like a showroom, and their daily life is exquisite.

Gu Zhixing was reading a script in his study, while Bai Lu was practicing Pilates in the living room. The two of them didn't exchange more than five words all morning.

At noon, Gu Zhixing came out to get water and saw Bai Lu's dress hanging on the hanger. He reached out and touched it.

"Will you wear this tomorrow?"

"Yes, a brand event."

Gu Zhixing didn't say anything more. He went to the dressing room and got her some suitable jewelry, which Bai Lu took for granted.

In the evening, the two of them snuggled up in the media room to watch an old movie.

Halfway through reading, Bai Lu suddenly said, "Don't schedule any work for the 10th of next month."

Gu Zhixing stared at the screen: "Why?"

"Why do you think that is?"

Gu Zhixing thought for a moment, then tentatively answered, "Is it Mom's birthday?"

Bai Lu didn't say anything, but picked up a cushion and threw it at him.

Gu Zhixing caught it with a smile, pulling the person and the pillow into his arms: "Just kidding, it's our tenth wedding anniversary, I remember."

Bai Lu snorted in his arms: "If you dare to forget, I'll sell all your trophies as scrap."

"Okay, let's sell it and see if it's enough to buy you an anniversary gift."

In the observation room, Liu Yi was so touched by this sweet remark that she rocked back and forth in her chair: "Even a movie star can be a movie star when it comes to sweet talk."

Jiang Wenjun, who has been married for many years, is very perceptive about such anniversaries: "Bai Lu never actually mentioned what day it was; Gu Zhixing was just teasing her on purpose."

The charm of an old married couple lies in this: he knows what she cares about, and she's certain he remembers.

Jiang Wenjun watched with deep emotion: "This couple is a typical old married couple."

They weren't overly affectionate, but you see, he helped her choose jewelry, and she made him tea; this kind of interaction was already part of their daily routine.

This time, Mu Qing didn't pour cold water on the idea; instead, he nodded, a rare occurrence: "To treat each other with such respect is a skill in itself."

Liu Yi laughed and teased, "Teacher Mu's praise still sounds a bit cold."

The comments section is quite engaging.

[The detail of wearing jewelry really touched me; is this the romance of an award-winning actor?]

They don't talk much, but their interactions are very comfortable.

[Bai Lu brewed tea for Gu Zhixing, and the tea leaves were always warmed in the cup before brewing. Such attention to detail makes this couple so special.]

I suspect Gu Zhixing genuinely forgot just now, but managed to smooth things over on the spot. That's how an award-winning actor uses his skills—only when they're truly needed.

When the third couple was Lu Yu and Song Xijin, the comments section went wild.

[It's here! It's here! It's here! My perfect match has arrived!]

[I'm already screaming, ladies, type "protect" in the chat!]

The camera pans across a quiet living room at 7:30 a.m.

The crew members carried cameras and tiptoed into the room, which was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Just after eight o'clock, the door to the master bedroom opened.

Lu Yu walked out, wearing a white T-shirt, gray lounge pants, and most importantly, completely without makeup.

The first two couples wore light makeup before appearing on camera in the morning.

The moment Lu Yu appeared, the barrage of comments was so dense it almost covered the entire screen.

[Is this a bare face??? This is actually a completely bare face???]

This face is absolutely stunning; my mom asked me why I was kneeling while watching a variety show.

[Cameraman, keep your hand steady! Keep it steady! Give me a close-up! You're ruining my chance to admire the fish's stunning beauty!]

In the video, Lu Yu makes a shushing gesture towards the camera.

"He's still asleep." The voice off-screen was very low. "Keep it down."

All the staff in the room nodded in unison, and the man carrying the machine walked on tiptoe.

In the observation room, Liu Yi had already clutched her chest.

"My God," she said, "I can't take it anymore after only two minutes."

Mu Qing didn't speak, but she clearly sat up straighter.

In the scene, Lu Yu is busy in the kitchen, the porridge in the clay pot is bubbling, and the small wontons are neatly arranged one by one.

The director's voice-over asks, "Mr. Lu, do you usually make breakfast?"

"I cook when I'm at home." Lu Yu's hands kept moving in the camera's view. "Xi Jin's stomach isn't very good, so her diet needs to be more refined."

Jiang Wenjun turned her head and glanced at Mu Qing.

"Teacher Mu, you just said that the trivialities that happen behind closed doors are what a relationship is really like."

Mu Qing said without changing her expression, "It's only the first day, and it seems to be going well so far. We'll see what's going on after we get to know each other better."

A few minutes after nine, the door to the master bedroom opened.

Song Xijin walked out with her eyes half-closed, her pajamas collar askew, and she clung to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu lowered her head and kissed him.

"Dinner is ready, go wash up."

Song Xijin buried her face in his shoulder and didn't move.

For a full minute, the two of them just held each other, neither of them saying a word.

The observation room was extremely quiet.

Liu Yi whispered, "President Song is... hanging on people before he's even fully awake."

"He didn't even see the camera," Jiang Wenjun laughed. "Look, when he came out, he had no idea the crew was filming. He was probably still dazed and had forgotten all about it."

"This isn't a business operation; this is just their daily routine."
