Nan Zhi was thriving, so much so that Fang Zhiyi was constantly swamped with work.
The love-struck Yan Nanzhe, meanwhile, was blissfully immersed in his relationship with Chen Wanting, even announcing their impending marriage. His smug expression prompted Fang Zhiyi to kick him in annoyance.
Everything seemed to be moving in a positive direction.
However, Yan Beichen, who had relocated to City S, was struggling. He had asked Xie Yutang for money to start a business, but every venture ended in failure. Born into the role of a CEO, he had no idea how the lower ranks actually worked—his responsibilities had always been limited to strategizing, signing contracts, and meeting partners. Now, everything was different.
Soon, he burned through all his funds. Xie Yutang, heartbroken for her child, asked her family for more money. After two such requests, the Xie family cut them off.
Unable to cope with the setbacks, Yan Beichen turned to drinking and eventually developed a gambling habit. After tasting initial success, his bets grew increasingly reckless.
When debt collectors arrived with eviction notices, Xie Yutang broke down. She tried to leave with their child, screaming about divorce, but Yan Beichen refused. As long as she stayed, he believed the Xie family wouldn’t truly abandon them.
Xie Yutang was beaten for the first time in her life—by the man she had once loved most. Staring at his disheveled hair and sunken eyes from sleepless nights of gambling, she finally regretted her choices, but it was too late.
Yan Beichen dragged her and their child to a rundown neighborhood. While he remained glued to the mahjong table, he forbade their son from attending school to maintain control over Xie Yutang. With no other options, she took a job as a supermarket cashier, barely keeping the family afloat. Every few days, Yan Beichen forced her to call the Xie family for money. At first, they gave small amounts, but eventually, they hung up at the sight of her number—leading to more beatings.
Finally, Xie Yutang could take no more. She abandoned her child and fled in secret.
Yan Niantang had once been a bright child, but witnessing his father’s abuse left him timid and emotionally scarred. Deprived of education by Yan Beichen, the boy’s potential withered in his youth.
After Xie Yutang’s escape, Yan Beichen took Yan Niantang back to City A, demanding the Xie family hand her over. But the Xies weren’t pushovers—after hiring men to beat him a few times, Yan Beichen backed down. Instead, he turned to his son, delivering the boy to the Xie family in exchange for child support. He assumed they wouldn’t abandon their own flesh and blood, but they took the boy without giving him a single cent.
Having lost everything, Yan Beichen saw news of his younger brother’s upcoming marriage on TV. Watching the confident, successful young man, he froze for a moment.
Then his eyes lit up. Why hadn’t he thought of turning to his brother? In the past, he’d never stoop to begging, but times had changed.
Fang Zhiyi, alerted by the Xie family about Yan Beichen’s return, had been monitoring him. Just as he considered shipping the troublemaker abroad, an even more dramatic scene unfolded.
"Host, host, quick—grab some popcorn!" The system, now more human-like than ever, excitedly activated a live feed.
On his way to confront his brother, Yan Beichen ran into Xiao Ruoruo and Lin Moyan at a market entrance.
Though no longer dressed in finery, Xiao Ruoruo seemed content under Lin Moyan’s care. She didn’t recognize Yan Beichen at first, but when he called out "Ruoruo" in a daze, she turned, stunned. Fear flashed in her eyes before she quickly tugged Lin Moyan away, leaving Yan Beichen in disbelief.
After all their past love, she now pretended not to know him? Furious, he followed them.
"Birds of a feather," Fang Zhiyi remarked dryly.
The system nodded in agreement.
Xiao Ruoruo and Lin Moyan entered a residential complex, while Yan Beichen scaled the wall. When he crouched outside their door, what he heard shocked him.
Before the door even closed, the sound of blows erupted inside.
"You were eyeing that homeless guy? Are you that desperate?"
"What’s with that look? You got a problem?"
"You worthless slut! I’ll beat you to death!"
Fang Zhiyi frowned at the feed. "Lin Moyan… Thank goodness he ended up a vegetable in the original timeline."
Though Yan Beichen had also abused his wife, he couldn’t stand by now. He burst in and punched Lin Moyan square in the face.
"Beichen!" Xiao Ruoruo’s cry revealed his identity.
Lin Moyan sneered. "So that’s how it is! Still hung up on him, huh? Yan Beichen, you pathetic loser—look at your brother now, thriving while you’re worse than a stray dog without the Yan fortune!" He’d never forgotten how this spoiled heir had once stolen his woman, but back then, he’d been too cowardly to retaliate. Now, at least he had a job and a home, while this ragged beggar had nothing.
Enraged, Yan Beichen grabbed a fruit knife from the table and stabbed him.
Meanwhile, Fang Zhiyi called the police.
Yan Beichen was imprisoned again—this time for breaking and entering and attempted murder. Lin Moyan survived, but in a cruel twist of fate, he reverted to a vegetative state.
Xiao Ruoruo seemed relieved, but she couldn’t leave. After years with Yan Beichen yielded nothing, and enduring Lin Moyan’s abuse, she was determined to claim his savings and apartment.
So Lin Moyan suffered in bed as Xiao Ruoruo repaid every past beating tenfold, laughing hysterically after each session.
But Fang Zhiyi had lost interest in their fates.
"Host, your mission is complete," the system announced. A strange force pulled Fang Zhiyi from the body, leaving him floating midair with the system as the original soul returned. After a moment of disorientation, the original host jumped for joy.
Someone barged in. "Let’s go! You’re my best man today—damn it, why aren’t you dressed yet?"
"Right, right! Just a sec!" The original host beamed.
Fang Zhiyi lingered briefly. The original host didn’t seek revenge but focused on building a happy life, marrying soon after.
Xiao Ruoruo dreamed of escape but stayed until Lin Moyan died in that bed.
As for Yan Beichen? He never made it out of prison, dying in a brawl behind bars.
Xie Yutang remained hidden with the Xie family. Both she and her son bore psychological scars, eventually sent abroad for treatment.
The brothers’ father received monthly support from Yan Nanzhe, who fulfilled his filial duty but refused to see him. The old man had no desire to return, content to be buried in his homeland after death.

However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw!
