Chapter 1: Transmigrated as a Courtesan

Where is this place?

Why am I here?

Chad Sullivan sat up on the bed in a daze, looking at the antique surroundings and listening to the seductive sounds coming from outside.

For quite a while, he couldn’t react.

Is this a dream?

He sat on the bed for a full fifteen minutes, only to realize he really needed to pee.

Suddenly, his body trembled, and he almost lost control of his prostate.

Immediately after, he was filled with joy.

Because, he could feel everything below his waist.

Was his paralysis cured?

He got out of bed and started walking, still finding it unbelievable.

He had been paralyzed for so many years, he had almost forgotten what it felt like to walk, to have legs.

He walked up to a mirror and looked at the person inside.

So handsome!

A face that could bring disaster, and because he really needed to pee, he glanced down.

So powerful and manly.

Such perfection—could this be a dream?

Chad Sullivan pinched his thigh hard, the pain jolting him awake, proving this was no dream, that everything was real.

After being immersed in countless movies and novels, he came to a conclusion.

I...

Did I transmigrate?

!...

………

………

Chad Sullivan was something of a prodigy, getting into Fudan University’s medical school at eighteen, then entering a combined master’s and doctoral program. He was handsome, with a bright future ahead.

Back then, he was riding high, as if nothing in the world could stop him.

Everything went smoothly, and everyone adored him.

He started seeking adventure and thrills, playing extreme sports every day.

Bungee jumping, skydiving, wilderness survival—those were child’s play. He even became obsessed with wingsuit flying.

It’s a very dangerous sport, and finally, during one flight, something went wrong.

His whole body crashed hard into a tree. Though his life was saved, he was left completely paralyzed from the waist down, and from then on, his life became utterly bleak.

He dropped out of school, gave up his major, and wasted away at home every day.

Six months of pain, six months of decadence—he even thought of ending his life several times.

After calming down a bit, he became obsessed with games, movies, and books.

He only played AAA games, immersing himself in other worlds.

As for movies and books, he focused almost entirely on mysteries and detective stories.

The complete works of Sherlock Holmes, Detective Charlotte, Detective Di Renjie, Detective Conan—he watched and read them over and over.

Not just the classics—he had seen almost every detective and suspense movie and TV show on the market.

Because for a paralyzed person, time was almost endless.

In this way, every excellent suspense film and every great game became his motivation to keep living.

On December 10, 2020, after three delays, "Cyberpunk 2077" was finally about to be released.

Chad Sullivan finally put aside his beloved detective movies, ready to play for days and nights on end.

Even though the game was full of bugs, and many of the promises made by CD Projekt Red weren’t fulfilled, making it a half-finished product,

Chad Sullivan still found it incredibly fun, playing day and night, unwilling to leave his computer for even a minute.

One day, he was playing on the balcony.

No one noticed that the weather suddenly changed. It had been clear, but suddenly dark clouds gathered.

Then!

"Bang!"

A bolt of lightning struck.

Chad Sullivan instantly lost consciousness.

When he woke up again, he was already in this strange world.

……

………

………

Other transmigrators might have cried and wailed, but Chad Sullivan was overjoyed.

Because those years of paralysis on Earth were truly dark and hopeless.

After relieving himself, he excitedly paced around the room.

The feeling of walking, the agility of his legs—he hadn’t felt that in so long.

It was amazing!

He pushed open the door.

Outside, the place was bustling and noisy.

Sleazy men, scantily clad women.

"Young Master Li, remember to come often!"

"Oh my, Lord Lin, you haven’t been here in so long. I’ve missed you so much!"

Just this scene let Chad Sullivan know where he was.

A brothel!

A whorehouse!

What a place!

The former Chad Sullivan, full of ambition, used to think places like this were filthy.
