Bind you in hellbound - Chapter 8: ~Hellbound~

When I opened my eyes, I was inside a novel.

---Han Yan thought his life couldn’t get any more embarrassing after dying from choking on cheap instant noodles. But when he opened his eyes again, he finds himself trapped in his sister’s favorite BL novel as the Han family’s cannon-fodder husband, fated to die miserably in the mountains.He knows the plot. He knows the ending. And he knows he’s meant to suffer while the Male Lead basks in happiness.The problem? The fragile, tearful husband beside him is far too pitiful, and Han Yan here supposedly a “straight man” can’t stop feeling protective.Armed only with his knowledge of the story, he declares:“Forget the plot. Forget the Male Lead. I’ll survive and keep my delicate husband safe!”But survival isn’t simple when your scheming stepmother has her own plans, greedy relatives circle like vultures, and the story’s protagonist could appear at any moment.Just when Han Yan thinks life in this strange world can’t get any stranger, a mysterious cat suddenly appears, a very massive plot hole that he could only scold the silly author. Its presence pulls Han Yan and Li Xin into events far beyond their control.This story mixes lighthearted humor, warmth, and slow-burn affection with light cultivation, danger, and emotional healing as Han Yan struggles between fate and his growing feelings for Li Xin the husband he was never meant to know.---
