After Becoming the Vicious Male Side Character, I Shine Brighter Than Ever

[Two Male Leads + True and Fake Young Masters + Turning a Straight Man Gay + Play the Pig to Eat the Tiger + Happy Ending]

A vicious supporting male character transformed into a wholesome good guy × a scheming illegitimate son who plays the pig to eat the tiger

He died for no apparent reason, and now he and an unreliable System that might run off at any moment must make their way through the world of an unfinished novel.

Xie Yanqing never imagined he would die young. But not only did it happen, he also got saddled with a deeply unreliable System. In the world of an unfinished book, he has no choice but to muddle through and make his own way forward.

He thought earning ten thousand a month in spending money would be a piece of cake. He never expected he’d soon be packing his bags and getting kicked out of the house!

As he learns more about the original owner’s life, he realizes things aren’t quite as he understood them. The characters in the novel seem to have come alive, developing minds of their own, independent of the author…

What’s a straight man to do when he turns gay?

And why is the person who can’t stand him looking at him more and more strangely? Can someone tell him what on earth has gone wrong…

Qi Song is an illegitimate son who has always had to stay hidden. After being forced to acknowledge his roots, he lives what outsiders assume is the life of a rich young master. In reality, he’s still dirt poor, living in the worst, cheapest rental he can find and eating instant noodles and steamed buns.

He works hard, swearing he’ll escape this identity through his own efforts.

The rich second-generation heir sitting beside him can’t stand him. Ever since learning he’s an illegitimate son, he’s mocked and looked down on him at every turn. Who could have guessed that one day the rich heir would turn out to be the fake young master and get thrown out of his home? Qi Song watched coldly, yet for some reason, he was laughing like a madman inside.

In my heart, you’ve always been my brightest light!
