After Faking My Death and Leaving, My Target's Regret Came Too Late

【Dual Male Leads + Regretful Pursuit + Fake Replacement Trope + Mutual First Love】 While pulling an all-nighter at work, Xie Jian accidentally clicked on a website. Just as he was blushing and about to close it, he got so worked up that he suffered a fatal heart attack. Having literally “worked himself to death,” Xie Jian lived by the creed that he would rather be shattered to pieces than let his innocence be stained. He planned to delete his browsing history as a ghost, but instead ended up bound to a System and kicked into a romance novel as an NPC. His mission was to fix the plot, which had gone off the rails, and move the male and female leads’ romance along. But after two whole years of diligently staying by male lead Gu Mo’s side and trying to bring the couple together, they still hadn’t even added each other on WeChat! Furious, Xie Jian traded with the System for a little pill, intending to force the romance forward. If it worked, he could count the mission as more or less complete, take the blame for drugging someone, and fake his own death. But he failed… Not only did he fail, he also discovered that the male lead, who was supposed to be straight, had gone gay! And now he wanted to lock Xie Jian up?! After a whole series of him running and the other chasing, with no way out for either of them, the System saw things going badly and helped Xie Jian fake his death and escape. The System figured the male lead had turned gay out of frustration after missing his chance to meet the heroine at the previous time point, so it sent Xie Jian back to the male lead’s university days. But can someone tell him why this male lead acts so strange whenever he sees him?
