Whoa, okay so here’s what happened? Gu Changge basically just blinked one minute and poof! Next thing you know, he’s dropped into this fantasy webnovel world. The very second he realized the gravity of his situation – accidentally landing in a story universe, no less – bam, it immediately hits him: the protagonist *and* an entire 'fated villain' system laser-focus on him? Talk about bad timing.
He didn't even have time to process being transported before the world's big cheese, this super-popular character everyone loves (or maybe just adores his misfortune), pops up. This person sees right through him and thinks he’s the most fascinating 'fated villain' ever. Not only is he getting the female lead practically melting over him, but apparently, wherever he shows up, people treat him like a special guest.
Gu Changge figured, okay then, I guess my 'villain' fate comes with some *serious* perks? And honestly, his own power level just keeps going higher than most others in this system. So yeah, how hard could it be to basically walk all over the protagonist and this whole designated system designed for milking villains?
He smirked, got that classic villain vibe going (even though he wasn't sure if *he* was really the villain anymore), and just like that thought: "This world's protagonist is apparently fated for some reason? And there’s this whole system built around making the villain pay?"
"Seems like everyone wants their piece of my 'fated' cake," Gu Changge mused, leaning back. "Guess fate picked a *different* target than expected."
