The Gloomy Extra Doesn't Want to Be Loved

Xie Fan, who has face blindness, transmigrated. He woke up in a folk-horror novel he had read before. The good news: he was just a passerby. The bad news: he was a disposable extra who appeared only to die, mentioned in passing as part of the background. A gloomy, gray-haired, long-haired, face-blind rat whose features were impossible to make out. He fell in love at first sight with the protagonist, Shen Xu, who had come to the village to paint and had secretly been chosen as the god’s bride. As a result, the deity worshipped by the villagers despised him, and he died a miserable death. His death became the perfect excuse for the various overbearing male leads to approach the universally adored protagonist. It was a very disposable-extra kind of death, entirely in keeping with his character. And Xie Fan… happened to be terrified of dying, and of ghosts. So on the first day the protagonist came to visit, Xie Fan shut himself inside and hid. He didn’t notice that after he closed his eyes, one of the eyes on the strange-faced idol enshrined in his room suddenly cracked open. In the dead of night, its gaze on him grew increasingly strange. At the same time, the obnoxious rich young men who had come to paint with Shen Xu also took notice of him. The pampered young masters, who had grown up surrounded by modern technology, initially thought the customs of this remote village were bizarre and the villagers were strange. Apart from the beautiful mountain scenery, the place was simply unbearable. They would never have come if Shen Xu hadn’t insisted on painting here. The young masters spent a week wandering aimlessly in the mountains, scoffing at the so-called “Spider God” who was supposedly responsible for good weather and bountiful harvests. That was, until they happened to come across a beautiful young man by the river, alone in the dead of night, drawing water and washing clothes. The young masters suddenly came to their senses and realized that this strange village did have its merits. For one thing, the local feng shui was exceptionally good for the people who lived there. But the day he met those outsiders, Xie Fan returned home to find a strange, pale-red mark on his lower back that hadn’t been there before. The next day, Xie Fan discovered that he was pregnant. P.S. An ancient cosmic-horror deity who falls in love with his beloved at first sight, an obsessive nonhuman seme VS a gloomy, face-blind, beautiful passerby uke with a nurturing streak [Saved on 2025.9.6] [Please add my upcoming stories to your reading list!] 《Reborn, First Pay Respects to the Passerby》 Wei Xiu lost his job. He woke up and happened upon a System. System: Hey, want to follow the plot? We’re the Passerby A System. The story ends in the novel’s finale, and all you have to do is cross the street as part of the crowd when the protagonist’s story wraps up. You’ll get a 50-million-yuan bonus. A task this easy? Wei Xiu eagerly agreed. Who could have guessed that after the plot ended, he would cross at the green light and turn to go home for dinner, only for the dead male lead across the street to suddenly be reborn? Their eyes met, and the man immediately decided Wei Xiu was the mastermind behind everything. Then he clung to him like a male ghost, refusing to let go. Wei Xiu, who was only following the passerby A plot: …? Damn it. A shady System! It said he’d appear at the end of the plot. It never said the protagonist could be reborn at the end! Pay up! & 《I Save People in a Paranormal World》 is a badly concluded cosmic-horror comic. The author described a series of events following the resurgence of anomalies, as ancient horrors awakened and all kinds of people with supernatural abilities took the stage and showed off their powers. It started with a bang, but the ending was cut short. The protagonist’s group died for no apparent reason in a paranormal incident during their showdown with the villain, like a meteor suddenly falling out of the sky. Just as readers were cursing the botched ending and the author’s whole family, the comic quietly updated with a new chapter. The popular male lead who had just died was reborn. Readers: …? The reborn male lead opened his eyes and locked gazes with an ordinary office worker waiting at a traffic light to cross the street. The next second, as everyone watched in stunned silence, the male lead latched onto him. Readers: …? What the hell does this mean? Wait, could it be… that this ordinary-looking office worker is actually the mastermind, and only shows up after the male lead dies? Not sure. Let’s wait and see. Wei Xiu: No, I’m being framed! & Convinced that the popular character Jin Lin was out of his mind, Wei Xiu refused to give up on the 50-million-yuan bonus and kept appealing to the System every day. The System was fed up and decided to give him another chance. Starting over, Wei Xiu decided to “pass by” someone else this time. But the second male lead, who should have been written out of the story, was reborn too! And latched onto him again! The third time, the fourth time, the fifth time… After watching Wei Xiu play the passerby A role several times and somehow cause a whole crowd of people to be reborn, the System was left speechless: … At last, it was time for the final passerby A plot. Wei Xiu was exhausted. He gave up and flopped onto the park lawn. Ha, surely no one’s going to be reborn this time? The next second, he turned his head and saw a pair of unfamiliar eyes that seemed to be smiling at him. Wei Xiu: …? As the comic’s only evil god, Xie Hui often stayed behind the scenes, manipulating everyone like pawns. Lately, though, he had noticed that the people with supernatural abilities, who should have followed the clues he laid out, had gone off the rails. After waking up, every one of those suddenly changed people inexplicably started clinging to someone else: an ordinary-looking human office worker. Interesting. After it happened again and again, Xie Hui raised an eyebrow and turned his interested gaze toward the man. The office worker watched by the whole world: …! The readers who thought the story had ended: …? Wait. Who the hell is he?! P.S. I really am just an ordinary passerby A, okay? A status-unknown office-worker uke VS a pleasure-seeking evil god seme who makes you wonder whether he believes it Theme: Even in hardship, keep hope in your heart.
