This is a frustrating novel to read, not due to the lack of plot, although there is barely any, to begin with, but because it wastes so much time with filler that sometimes a single day in which nothing important happened will take 60-80 chapters to pass.The story follows Lin Yuan, a person from Earth that was transmigrated into an urban romance novel he read, one that he must have liked very much since he remembers fine details of almost everything that happened in it. The body he is in is of Lin Yuan, one of the villains of the novel who is the heir to a powerful conglomerate and whose fiancee, who hates him for being an annoying simp by the way, will be stolen by the protagonist of the story, Ye Feng, a super mercenary of sorts who returns to China after years away.Lin Yuan is equipped with a system that can increase his attributes and skills by using points that he acquires by stealing opportunists and getting in the way of Ye Feng or by increasing the favorability of the heroines of the novel, essentially incentivizing him to commit netori, something that he already felt inclined to do anyway. There is also a possibility of converting money into points, which is very helpful since he has billions in his account right from the start.Don't be deceived by this premise and think that the original protagonist will be important for the story, he is barely there and never challenges Lin Yuan in any way, which is a shame, because nothing challenges Lin Yuan in any way. Whenever he is going to do something he increases his skill level with that thing directly to the divine level which makes him do it at a superhuman level, better than any human has ever done. He does that even when the situation wasn't even important and if he doesn't have enough points he converts money into points to do so.A typical day will consist of him going into 2 to 3 different situations where he will interact with heroines or important people in the novel. Each situation takes 8 to 40 something chapters to conclude and the next day is the same thing. It comes to a point in which an important plot point was promised to happen in a month and more than 150 chapters passed and I don't think even a week passed, so no wonder this novel has more than 1200 chapters and is still ongoing.On a side note, there are too many heroines. At the point I dropped (463) there are like 12 or so, just one has complete favorability and he only had s*x with two, including the one with full favorability, so if you are here for this kind of thing be warned.
