There Will Always Be Protagonists With Delusions of Starting a Harem

Chapter 28

The small mirror shook and flashing lights appeared, as if it was urging him to look at the data quickly.

"Really, really impatient." He put down the mirror and wiped away the water from his face, looking at the screen soon afterwards.

The protagonist of this world was An Chengjie, who was the bastard son of the town's Zhen Guogong, An Wenhua. When the protagonist was abandoned by his mother, his life in Zhuangzi was very hard. At the age of eighteen, he unfortunately fell into the water and died; his body being taken over by a soul from the future.

[T/N: Bastard son in this context refers to a son who was born from a concubine]

[T/N: (鎮國公) Zhen Guogong is something along the lines of a duke of the state, or a city lord]

[T/N: Zhuangzi refers to a city]

"...so cliché..."

The reborn An Chengjie exhibited an outstanding ability. He first cleaned up the evil servants who had bullied the original owner, and then rectified the political order of Zhuangzi, also raising the city's harvests. By the end of the year, his name had reached the capital due to his increasingly large reputation in the poetry circle. An Wenhua, noticing his son's incredible behaviour, brought him back to the capital regardless of his wife's protests.

On An Chengjie's way back, he coincidentally rescued one of the male leads from a gangster; Lei Baofei, the only son of the Great General Lei Xihong. They journeyed back to the capital together, talking joyously and soon becoming friends.

After that, it was simply going through the usual motions; arriving at the capital, the two separated. After An Chengjie entered the government office, he began to fight with his father's first wife, his brothers, other concubines and other members of the second branch; fighting with all his family members. Then with much struggle, he opened a restaurant and a jewelry store, earning both status and money.

An Chengjie also did not forget to take part in several poetry conferences, brushing up his already extensive reputation. Eventually, his name finally reached the emperor, and was hand-picked as a study companion for the emperor's eighth son.

Up to this point, there was nothing that surprised Ye Zhizhou – at least, except for the slash world. The plot was still normal, until he saw the identity of the second male lead – the eldest son of the first wife, An Chengsheng.

[T/N: Slash world = BL world, man x man, boy x boy. The world for the rotten men and women XD]

Although the character description was very vague, An Chengsheng already had a wife and children – yet in the end, he threw away those feelings for the sake of his own brother. There was also the part about 'collecting all of An Chengjie's poems' and 'constantly reminiscing and longing for his younger brother everyday' – a crazy brother complex...

But the most important thing was that this man also had a soul flag! An Chengsheng did not have an official relationship with the protagonist, but the intimacy between the two was ambiguous – and though the wall of love was not pierced through, he indeed had a soul flag!

Even a half-brother could be included in a harem... it was no wonder that this rotten world got destroyed!

Continuing to look down, Ye Zhizhou found that he was still very naive – the original world had more than two harem members, and besides the two that had destroyed his three views, there was a man who would eventually become the third emperor – The seventh prince, Yan Mingli.
