[Goofy Drama-Queen Bottom × Gloomy Ghost Top]
Shen Rong was a modern-day all-nighter champion who wrote himself right into another world.
Getting transmigrated into the angsty novel he wrote, one so notorious it became popular, and becoming a cannon-fodder Immortal Lord was bad enough. But the System also forced him to save Xie Jiangmin, the male lead whose family he had written into ruin.
Refuse?
Fine. He could become the protagonist's love interest in the angsty novel instead, the kind who gets tormented to death.
Shen Rong tearfully gave in and began his bizarre routine of saving the boy by raising him like a child. He gave him the best of everything, and if anyone dared bully his son, he would grab a weapon and go after them. He was the very picture of a perfect father.
But the comments were still dissatisfied, chattering away in front of his eyes: "He's crying! Hug him!" "Hurry and buy the kid some candied hawthorns!" "His spiritual energy is depleted. Breathe some into him!"
Breathe into him, my foot. That's kissing!
Cursing and grumbling all the while, Shen Rong painstakingly raised little cabbage Xie Jiangmin into a towering tree. But once the tree came into its own, he returned reborn, wiped out the sect, and locked Shen Rong up.
Even more terrifying, Xie Jiangmin could see the comments, too.
"Master, why did you write me so miserably?"
"Master, are your feelings for me real?"
"Master, the comments say we should have a tragic romance."
After fights, emotional manipulation, and a reality even more painful than the novel, Shen Rong watched as the comments prepared to teach them something even more advanced. He fled in the middle of the night.
But before he had gone even a mile, he was caught and dragged back to settle the score.
Xie Jiangmin leaned over him, his voice low and gloomy. "Master, you owe me. You have to pay me back, whether in this life or the last. Otherwise, your disciple will die of heartbreak."
What a wicked disciple! He's even copying the way he died...
