[World Two Complete]
Xu Anran has spent his whole life honest and timid, so oblivious that he never even realizes when people are bullying him. His greatest wish is to marry a wife, have children, and live a quiet, peaceful life of his own.
One day, he gets bound to the “Incompetent Husband” department and assigned to play the husbands of story protagonists.
A ghost pressing down on him in the middle of the night;
A “wife” who is tall and powerfully built;
Men whose gazes grow increasingly strange;
Xu Anran remains blissfully unaware as he completes his tasks. Just as he finishes saving up his bride-price and plans to fake his death and return home to marry a wife, a crowd of men corners him and ruthlessly...
*
World One: The Sexually Incompetent Fake Husband in an ABO Story
[Xu Anran is an Alpha husband in an ABO world, born with a defective gland. His wife, desperate for a child, grows tired of his sexual impotence and starts flirting with their neighbor.]
Xu Anran treasures the wife he was lucky enough to marry.
To fulfill his wife’s wish,
he timidly lets the ill-intentioned neighbor into their home. As the bed next door creaks and muffled voices come and go, he torments himself by frantically taking all sorts of pills.
The conversation abruptly stops. Xu Anran turns around in alarm
The neighbor is kneeling in front of him, breathing hot and damp as calloused fingertips roam back and forth across his waist. “I heard that an Alpha with a defective gland can develop a second womb...”
“Your wife wants a child, doesn’t he? How about you give birth to one for him?”
As soon as the words leave his mouth, Xu Anran’s wife, a dark bruise blooming at his temple, glares coldly and pounds frantically on the door!
(P.S. The protagonist and his wife are not legally married. They only held a wedding banquet in the countryside and never registered their marriage.)
World Two: The Blind Ex-Boyfriend Who Gets Fought Over by Fake Brothers
[Xu Anran is the older brother’s clingy ex-boyfriend in a pseudo-incest story. The older brother finds him bland and boring, yet utterly devoted to him. After having a friend tell Xu Anran that he “died in a car accident,” the older brother secretly hooks up with his illegitimate “younger brother.”]
[Unaware of the truth, Xu Anran takes in the younger brother. Even the cake he buys for the boy’s birthday becomes part of their play.]
But the truth is,
the usually well-behaved younger brother clutches Xu Anran’s hand tightly, each word wrenched from him like blood: “Who are you looking at through my eyes?!”
His “resurrected” ex-boyfriend grabs him fiercely by the wrist. “You keep mistaking people for me and collecting them. How many more are you going to collect?! Am I not enough for you on my own?”
World Three: The Cannon-Fodder Ex-Fiancé in a Xianxia Story
[Xu Anran is the cannon-fodder ex-fiancé in a xianxia story. His fiancée wants to seduce a powerful figure from the immortal realm, so she volunteers to become his cultivation vessel and bear him a spirit child.]
But the truth is,
the poor cannon-fodder fiancé is deceived by the powerful immortal and trusts him completely. Not only is he tricked into calling off the engagement, but his belly is gradually growing, too.
And the “former fiancée,” executed by the powerful immortal, claws her way out of the underworld in the middle of the night. Her deathly pale cheek presses against Xu Anran’s belly as she lovingly teaches the child inside to call him “Daddy.”
(P.S. After the powerful immortal, who is the gong, takes an interest in the shou, the engagement is deliberately called off. Xu Anran has no actual romantic relationship with either of them.)
World Four: The Office Drone Ex-Boyfriend Forced to Flirt with His Boss
[Xu Anran is the office-drone boyfriend of the protagonist in an urban rich-family story. Even when he runs into his boss while dining with his girlfriend, all he can do is nervously say hello. He has no idea how to suck up to his boss and get promoted or a raise.
His girlfriend, who has very high standards for material comfort, quickly starts flirting with the boss and makes her boyfriend part of their play.]
But the truth is,
the poor office drone is threatened by his boss, who holds his girlfriend’s job over his head. To protect her job, the straight-laced office worker can only grit his teeth and break up with her, swallowing his embarrassment as he learns how to “please the boss” and “get promoted and a raise.”
Meanwhile, his ex-girlfriend works hard and secretly supports the office drone. She even has to sleep with her eyes open, on guard against a sudden attack from the boss, her “potential homewrecker.”
(P.S. By the time the shou interacts with the boss, he and his girlfriend have already broken up. He has no actual sexual relationship with either of them.)
[Reading Guide]

2. The split versions merge in the real world, with one-on-one pairings.
3. Both leads are virgins and faithful to each other; the split versions of the gong have no ambiguous relationships with one another.
4. No childbirth. The author only likes fake pregnancies 😋
5. Some worlds feature faked deaths. The real-world ending is happy.
6. The straight shou gradually catches on. Their intense mutual attraction only comes in the real world.

After Everyone Hates Him, His Heart Turns to Ash
Zhaoxue was raised in luxury by his sect.
He was spoiled into being willful, arrogant, and utterly out of control.
While his fellow disciples had to train hard, all he had to do was follow his master around every day, wearing pretty clothes and making faces at the senior disciples.
If he asked for something, his master and senior disciples would fetch it for him, even if it was the moon in the sky or its reflection in a pond.
Then he discovered he had been raised as a substitute to be sacrificed, and threw a huge tantrum.
His master and senior disciples, who had once loved him, seemed to become completely different people. They simply watched him go mad.
His hands and feet turned icy cold.
Just before he was sacrificed, amid the blazing flames, he saw his master, who had once indulged his every whim, cradling a keepsake in his hands. His face held a tenderness Zhaoxue had never seen before.
“Xiao Chao, you’re finally coming back...”
*
After he was reborn, Zhaoxue became obedient.
He obediently took his medicine, obediently followed their orders to cut his flesh and drain his blood, and obediently... waited to die.
But why wasn’t he dead yet?
Why did his senior brother panic so much when he merely spat up a little blood?
Why hadn’t he been sent to the sacrificial altar, even though he was so thin and covered in scars?
This body was going to be ruined. The other person wouldn’t be able to use it.
Zhaoxue looked up in confusion at his master. “When can I die? Once I’m dead, he can come back.”
His usually cold and heartless master suddenly pulled him into his arms. Trembling fingertips traced every inch of his thin, frail back.
Warm, wet drops splashed onto his neck. Trembling, icy lips kissed the top of his head again and again. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Please don’t leave me again, all right...”
[Reading Guide]
1. The master is the gong.
2. The most hated becomes the most beloved. A gong pursues his wife to the crematorium, full of belated regret.
3. A little sickly, doted-on-by-everyone sweetness.
