Quick Transmigration: My System is a Big Liar

In the dimly lit, cramped room, a disheveled man with bloodshot eyes sat at a computer. Several instant noodle bowls were on the table, and various kinds of trash were scattered around and on the floor.

The man watched as his newly posted message was instantly overwhelmed by mindless praise from his brainless fans. His eyes turned red with anger, and he grabbed the keyboard from the table and slammed it against the wall to vent his rage.

It's obvious that one of them is after money and the other is after sex, yet those brainless fans are shipping them as a couple. They're utterly blind.

If he hadn't betrayed Jiang Lan and hadn't refused her invitation, wouldn't he be the one everyone envies now?

The disheveled Tao Ziyi, looking at the woman with a radiant smile through the screen, imagined them gazing deeply into each other's eyes, becoming a couple that everyone would envy.

Buzz

The phone on the table interrupted Tao Ziyi's reverie.

Upon seeing the caller ID, Tao Ziyi seemed startled and quickly turned off the phone, looking around warily.

He paused for a second when he saw the door.

After the phone call ended, there was a thumping sound outside the door, as if someone was trying to take the door off.

Tao Ziyi was startled. Realizing what was happening, she climbed onto the window and prepared to escape. She didn't even have time to grab her phone from the table, let alone the slippers she was wearing.

Bang! The door crashed to the ground, and the people outside broke in. The man in the lead grabbed Tao Ziyi, who was about to jump out of the window to escape, pulled him down, and slammed him hard to the ground.

"what!"

Tao Ziyi let out a pitiful scream.

"Beat him, beat him to death." The middle-aged man looked at Tao Ziyi with the eyes of someone looking at a dead man, and coldly uttered a few words.

Upon hearing the commotion, several bodyguards began punching and kicking Tao Ziyi, who screamed and begged for mercy.

"I was wrong."

"I won't do that again."

"Please, please let me go this time."

"..."

The man sneered twice, then raised his foot and stomped hard on Tao Ziyi's groin. "Let you go? When you cheated on me, why didn't you say you'd let me go?"

"Ah ah ah"

Tao Ziyi arched his back and rolled on the ground in pain.

The middle-aged man rubbed himself against Tao Ziyi with disgust, as if his shoes had some dirt on them.

As the middle-aged man prepared to leave, Tao Ziyi, ignoring her physical pain, got up and tightly hugged the man's leg.

"I, I, no, I didn't know that Sister Zhang was your wife. If I had known she was your wife, I wouldn't have dared to do it even if you gave me a hundred times the courage."

"Please, please spare me this time."

"I promise to leave City B immediately and never appear in front of you again."

This man is a complete mad dog. He can't control his woman and takes her anger out on him. He arranges for more than a dozen women to be with him every day, and he almost ruined him.

They finally escaped, but after hiding here and there, they still couldn't find them.

The middle-aged man kicked Tao Ziyi away, looked down at her like a dead dog, and said coldly, "From the moment you first touched her, your fate was sealed."

He doesn't care who she's with, she's a cheap woman.

But there is only one outcome for trampling on his dignity.

Tao Ziyi was in despair, clutching her head as she endured the punches and kicks from several bodyguards. At first, she could still scream, but gradually, her voice grew softer and softer until she could no longer make a sound.

The middle-aged man and his bodyguards drove off, leaving Tao Ziyi barely alive.

Tao Ziyi moved her mouth as if to ask for help, but no sound came out.

He vaguely saw Jiang Lan walk in, just like when he first met her, serious and unsmiling, but her expression softened when she was facing him.

Tao Ziyi stared blankly for a moment, opened his mouth but couldn't utter a sound, and his slightly raised hand fell limply.

Early in the morning, Xiao Li ran excitedly to Jiang Lan's house, "Sister Lan, have you seen the news online?"

Jiang Lan was a little confused by the question. What news?

With so much gossip about the entertainment industry online every day, which one are you asking about?

What news are you referring to?

When Xiaoli heard Jiang Lan say that, she knew that she hadn't seen it. She glanced at the bedroom and wondered if Shen Yubai would be unhappy if she talked about Tao Ziyi in front of Sister Lan.

Jiang Lan instantly understood her meaning, "Yu Bai is not at home."

Xiao Li was immediately relieved and excitedly shared the news she had seen with Jiang Lan: "Tao Ziyi was found dead in her rented room, her body covered in maggots. It is said that she died about half a month ago."

Jiang Lan raised an eyebrow; it was a little later than she had expected.

From the day Tao Ziyi started flirting with someone else's wife, his fate was sealed. Even if he wasn't Zhang Jie's husband today, it would have been Wang Jie, Li Jie, or Yang Jie.

The truth will eventually come out, and that will be his death day.

So it's not surprising.

What was the cause of death?

Xiao Li is a gossip expert. In order to get the definite information, she specifically asked many people to find out the details. "The news on the Internet is that he starved to death. According to the neighbors, he never came out after the day Tao Ziyi moved in."

“They initially knocked on the door to greet them, but after being verbally abused by Tao Ziyi, they eventually stopped bothering them.”

"Later, the smell got worse and worse, and that's when they contacted the landlord and found that the person had died in the house."

Starved to death?

Not necessarily!

Tao Ziyi, that coward, would never let himself starve to death. It's likely that the other party has some powerful backing, which is why the police had to change their story.

After sharing the gossip, Xiaoli remembered the phone call Liang Jie had just made.

"Sister Lan, Sister Liang asked me to ask you if you want to participate in a variety show. It's the most popular dating variety show on the internet right now. They invited you and Shen Yubai, but she couldn't get through to you when she tried to call you."

Jiang Lan had seen previous episodes of the show online, which involved finding five couples to live in a specific house for seven days and filming their daily interactions.

There are also some tasks that require couples to complete together. There are rewards for completing them and penalties for failing to complete them.

For the past seven days, except for sleeping time, everything has been broadcast live, with every smile and frown under everyone's watchful eye.

Among the five couples, there were married couples who had been together for decades, couples who were currently dating, and even a celebrity's helper.

The production team understands everyone's preferences, and each episode features both popular celebrities and ordinary people, which is why the ratings have always been high.

Shen Yubai has been filming for the past few years and hasn't participated in any variety shows yet, but she can spare seven days.

"I'm fine on my end. Let Sister Liang check Yu Bai's schedule."
