Jigsaw Game: Finding a Boyfriend in the Escape Instance

[A seemingly gentle yet hypocritical, world-weary uke × an attacker who plays the pig to eat the tiger]

On the first day Wen Huaiqin was dragged into the puzzle game, he suddenly awakened to his own existence. It turned out he was the foolish stepping stone in a harem novel, destined to be adored by everyone.

His sole purpose was to hand over all his points and his life to the foolish, beautiful protagonist, Ling Qian.

The dungeons he had barely survived and painstakingly solved would eventually become medals Ling Qian used to win over followers.

At that moment, Wen Huaiqin tore the novel in his hands to pieces and broke free of the plot’s shackles. Let whoever wants to be a cannon fodder take the role.

Xie Yu was the most dangerous variable in the dungeon.

With a bright smile, Wen Huaiqin solved puzzles with ease, watching Xie Yu flee in panic from the ghosts and stumble into his arms.

The other boy trembled, like a lamb that had wandered into a pack of wolves.

Only Wen Huaiqin knew that Xie Yu, clinging to his waist and seeking shelter, was supposed to become the ultimate boss who would slaughter the world.

As Wen Huaiqin looked up, he snapped a ghost’s neck with his bare hands.

The monster disguised as a human watched its prey transform.

He should have torn the pretty fool to pieces, but the drops of blood splashed across his face seared his nerves.

From then on, Wen Huaiqin had a little shadow trailing behind him.

The boy would always look up obediently and say, “Brother Wen, I’m scared,” then turn around and crush a ghost’s skull.

Wen Huaiqin wove new rules into the plot’s web of tangled threads, until Ling Qian raised a knife with trembling hands. “You were supposed to die for me!”

“Sorry.” Wen Huaiqin narrowed his eyes. Behind him, Xie Yu’s slit pupils glowed crimson. “Now it’s time to pay the price.”

When all the puzzle pieces fell into place, they saw their true reflections in each other’s eyes: an original sin called desire, more terrifying than any monster.
