The Cannon-Fodder Little Brother Tries to Run, but the Chosen One Bows His Head to Coax Him

[Two male leads + monogamous pairing + cultivation + devoted top and cherished bottom; a proud, clever, sickly beauty bottom VS a calculating, possessive top]

After suffering a serious injury, Song Tingyuan suddenly awakened to his memories and discovered that he had become the cannon-fodder sidekick of the overpowered protagonist in a xianxia fantasy novel. Early on, he kept giving resources to the protagonist, who grew stronger and stronger, while the little cannon-fodder stayed weak. In the end, the protagonist’s enemies would abduct and kill him.

Learning that he was destined to die because of the protagonist, Song Tingyuan decided to keep his distance. He deliberately gave Long Aotian the cold shoulder and treated him rudely, making him serve as a stepping-stone for his own advancement… But Long Aotian not only didn’t get angry, he stuck close to him and wouldn’t leave no matter how often he was told to.

While being chased, Song Tingyuan ducked into an alley. Xiao Yi shielded him in a corner, drove off his pursuers, and soothed him in a low voice: “Don’t be scared, Yuan.”

After Song Tingyuan got drunk at a banquet, Xiao Yi held him in his arms while he kept messing with him. Xiao Yi gave him a swat on the backside and said hoarsely, “Stop fooling around, Yuanyuan.”

Song Tingyuan didn’t want to go with Xiao Yi to the cultivation world, so Xiao Yi coaxed him into taking his medicine. “Fine, if you don’t want to go, I won’t either. We’ll stay together for the rest of our lives.”

When Song Tingyuan was gravely wounded and near death in a secret realm, Xiao Yi made a pact with him: “You and I will share one life.”

Song Tingyuan thought that once he and Xiao Yi cleared up their misunderstanding, he and Long Aotian would still be the loyal brothers they had always been. But Xiao Yi no longer saw him as a brother. He was fiercely possessive and drove away anyone who set their sights on Song Tingyuan.

After getting drunk, Song Tingyuan discovered Xiao Yi kissing him. He panicked and tried to run, but Xiao Yi caught him. “I don’t like men, and I don’t like you.”

Xiao Yi closed in on him step by step, until Song Tingyuan was trapped in his arms. “Oh? Then who does Yuanyuan like?”
