Jiang Shu, a deadbeat shut-in, accidentally stumbled across a ridiculous reverse-harem Mary Sue novel in the X site’s section for female fans of boys’ love. Unable to contain his excitement (breakdown), enthusiasm (collapse), and impulse (madness), he choked to death on instant noodles while ranting about it. For some reason, he was bound to a System and became Jiang Yanshu, the novel’s cannon-fodder second male lead...
[Waaah! Welcome to the Cannon-Fodder Second Male Lead Self-Salvation System!]
How is a cannon-fodder second male lead supposed to save himself, huh? I’m already cannon fodder!
[Waaah! We only have one mission! Follow the plot and save yourself!]
Following the plot is a one-way ticket to death! Why don’t you try saving yourself, you damn thing!
[Waaah! Host, don’t be so pessimistic. There’s a character you can win over!]
But Jiang, who had thought he was as good as dead, suddenly felt there might still be hope for him.
Jiang Shu: Tell me already, which girl can I win over? The sweet, naive heroine or the vicious second female lead?
[Waaah! It’s the male lead!]
Jiang Shu: ...I’d rather just die already...
