A beautiful, scheming flirt who acts innocent but is actually lustful and bold x a restrained, patient, insecure, brooding top
Lu Qichen has spent five years transmigrated into a book. At last, he has turned the original novel's villain, who is exactly his type, into a brooding ghost of a man. Just as he is about to enjoy being locked up and forced into love, a System appears out of nowhere and reboots the world.
Lu Qichen: ...
System: [Host, please get the plot back on track and complete your mission to earn a revival card and return to your original world.]
But how does Lu Qichen follow the plot?
He sidles up to Si Yijing, shoulder to shoulder, his fingertips brushing the other's sleeve as if by accident. His eyes turn dewy. "Yijing, give me a hug."
On a rainy day, his gaze settles on Si Yijing's bobbing Adam's apple. His peach-blossom eyes narrow, and he smiles suggestively. "Senior Si, want to kiss me?"
At night, he knocks on the villain's door again, wearing nothing but a shirt, his voice low. "Big brother, want to give it a try?"
He never intended to follow the plot at all.
With no other choice, the System secretly gathers energy, upgrades, and applies to its superiors to change the mission:
[Mission One: Make the original protagonist reach a happy ending.]
[Mission Two: Redeem the villain, Si Yijing.]

"It's okay if you don't remember me. It's okay if you don't love me. I'll lock you up."
"You taught me everything, so of course I'm like you."
