[Two male leads + apocalypse + HE + equally powerful leads + System + dark tone + mild angst + bittersweet]
Duan Wangchuan x Wen Zhuqing
Black-hearted seme who looks innocent x highly intelligent uke
Note: Wait until the foreshadowing has been revealed before judging the characters.
Wen Zhuqing is a supporting character in an apocalypse novel, the male lead's deceased childhood friend and unrequited love.
Five years after his death, Wen Zhuqing is forcibly brought back to life by a “popularity System.” His mission is to interact with Duan Wangchuan, the novel's male lead, and boost the story's popularity.
Wen Zhuqing: “Sure, sure.” (In his head: To hell with your mission. I'll agree for now.)
When he sees Duan Wangchuan again five years later, the other man has outgrown his boyish looks. His handsome face now carries the bearing of a leader.
He is still considerate and attentive to Wen Zhuqing, but his behavior is no longer as awkward and restrained as it was five years ago.
Doesn't seem like the male lead has changed much over the last five years...
Thinking this, Wen Zhuqing gradually lets his guard down.
But before long, Duan Wangchuan locks him up.
Wen Zhuqing struggles and shouts, “Duan Wangchuan, are you insane?”
Duan Wangchuan says nothing. He wraps him up in vines, their damp, sticky touch making him tremble all over...
“You disappeared for five years... Why shouldn't I go insane?”
“Now that I've got you, everything will be fine...”
“You won't disappear again, will you?”
All right, so the male lead hasn't stayed the same all these years. He was just still wearing his mask...
It's quite good. Someone said that if a child kisses the protagonist, it's just a greeting gift. Who remembers it? The novel is very good and very appetizing. At first, I wanted to avoid lightning, but after reading it, I realized that the poster was poisonous.
It's very interesting. I've been looking for a book for so long and finally found one that I can read without skipping chapters.
