Villain, Stop Simping! This Straight-Laced Cannon Fodder Just Wants to Make Money

[Two male leads, 1v1, both pure, a domestic romance with a slow-burn pursuit]

[Soft-hearted tough-guy bottom × clingy, scheming CEO top]

After being sacrificed 99 times, Liu Xing awakens to the fact that he's a disposable side character. He decides to turn the tables and win over Huo Chengyuan, the villain who holds his life in his hands!

Unexpectedly, after Liu Xing beats him up, the villain doesn't get angry. Instead, he offers a million to hire Liu Xing as his personal bodyguard.

Everything goes smoothly, except this villain doesn't seem to be what Liu Xing imagined.

He wants to hold hands as soon as Liu Xing starts work, demands hugs at mealtimes, insists they share a bed, and even follows him to the bathroom...

Out of a strong sense of professionalism, Liu Xing agrees to all of it.

But can someone tell him why the villain looks at him like a wolf staring at meat, eyes practically glowing?!

Isn't this the villain who only has eyes for the protagonist?

The villain is acting all wrong, but Liu Xing is straight!

Cornered on the bed, Liu Xing finally panics.

Liu Xing: Huo Chengyuan, I'm straight. Completely straight!

Huo Chengyuan: I heard you. A straight man who only likes men. Perfect, we're made for each other.

Liu Xing: Who taught you to interpret things like that?!

When words fail, Liu Xing tries force again, only to accidentally unlock Huo Chengyuan's hidden trait and leave him enjoying every hit...

Liu Xing is completely out of ideas. Guys, I really am straight! What am I supposed to do?
