Synopsis

[Infinite Flow + Live Streaming + Slightly Harem-Like + Mild Horror]

Handcrafted by a veteran author. Main story complete; taking suggestions for bonus chapters.

No romance, but plenty of shipping.

Liang Zaibing is a peculiar creature who, despite being covered in arrows in a horror game, remains convinced he’s completely straight. All he thinks is that this stupid game is too noisy.

Why are all the monsters looking at him like that?

And what’s wrong with the viewers and the other players, too?

In a sea of livestreams full of “My wife is so gorgeous, let me get a taste” and “Boss, you’re so handsome,” only his stream has such a uniquely bizarre vibe.

“Hey, the kid failed at showing off again and got chased by monsters?”

“Which guilds are hunting him this time? He’s really racking up the charges.”

“New fan here. Do we follow the usual steps, or just call him ‘son’?”

“He’s an outstanding graduate of the Tomato Orphanage, a player with a flopped luck stat, a yearly inductee into the Hall of Fame for hilarious players, the number one monster favorite (to eat), a dungeon destroyer, a cursed-object collector, and the viewers’ most beloved son. He’s the softest spot in the hearts of Bingfen.”

Then one day, the mood in the livestream suddenly turned strange.

“Wait, can someone explain who left those bite marks on our son’s neck?”

“What! You’ve been keeping a man on the side behind your dad’s back?”

“Not just one man.”

Dungeon 1: After two and a half days of training, I’m about to make my center-stage debut. √

Dungeon 2: My parents sent me to a bootleg internet addiction rehab center because of the erotic movies on my computer. √

Dungeon 3: I was forced to volunteer as a test subject at Research Institute D. √

Dungeon 4: Wait, am I the legendary campus playboy who dates multiple people of any gender? √

Seventeen dungeons are already complete. Feel free to jump in.

The author writes very well; this novel is truly amazing. However, one thing I'd like to ask is if the author mentions any side couples in the synopsis. Otherwise, some of the ambiguous lines in the text are really unsettling. 👍 The synopsis states there are no side couples, but the supporting characters' ambiguous relationships are too much and overshadow the main story. Also, some people in the comments section are shipping them. If you're not into that, run!

I've read about 20 chapters, and I feel that compared to other books of the same genre up to this point (around 20 chapters), it's above average. The ambiguous and entangled relationships between the charming Bingbing and other people are so satisfying that I'm practically pounding my bed... The character development is decent, and I feel they're quite vivid.

Although I don't really like stories with side couples... It's a must-read for those who torture the main character!! I don't want the protagonist to get hurt... Any male lead who tortures the protagonist is out of the running! Currently, my favorite characters are Ivan, Eleven, Chen An, my childhood sweetheart Jiang, and the fortune teller, Glacier Melt.

Bingbing is simply divine! Straight men really know how to be rough with their hands! Every character in the book is incredibly well-developed and distinctive. Even now, I still consider it a top-tier thriller. As I've followed it step by step, I've witnessed the author's mature writing style. But like I always say, everyone should choose what they like. Everyone has different tastes, so let's not put too much pressure on the author.

It's good, I quite liked the plot. However, after reading for a while, I still don't understand why everyone is so skeptical of the secondary couple in this story. Or rather, it doesn't really feel like a secondary couple. I think the language is quite normal; British gentlemen almost always speak like that.

All of Bingbing is so adorable! I really ship Bingbing with everyone! There's every type! The car scenes and beautiful pictures of Bingbing from the author are so delicious!! Some authors even randomly post beautiful pictures! The food is amazing too!

It's so good! It perfectly matches my image of a slightly charming, popular guy—the kind who has something going for him with everyone, but it never feels awkward. I haven't found many books on Taobao that really suit my taste, but I feel like I don't have enough to read! I just found this book yesterday and finished it today! 😢

So good! Can't they really give Young Master Jiang a little something to eat in the extra chapter? In the previous book, Chen An next door got to eat meat, but Young Master Jiang didn't even get a sip of soup, let alone meat! Poor thing. This ambiguous, charming guy is so satisfying! The plot is also very interesting, I love it! ♡^▽^♡

It's alright, quite well-written, but if you're looking for a character who's universally loved, forget it. There are two pairs of supporting characters who seem like secondary couples. If you don't mind that, then disregard what I said.

I just started reading this book from the previous one, and it's great! I feel like there's a new stock in the market. I also really like the little butterfly and the new characters. I love Ivan's slightly crazy vibe. I hope they can do dungeons together again in the future. Author, I'm willing to follow you forever! (｡>∀<｡)
