[A scheming, unhinged, sharp-tongued top x a self-aware gay comedian bottom]
Could anything be more tragic than spending twenty years all alone, then getting hit by a car on the very day you win five million in the lottery?
Ning Shuangyu raises his hand: Finding out after you die that you're the only heir to the richest family in the country, missing for years!
Ning Shuangyu: QAQ
Maybe even Heaven couldn't bear to watch. A glowing orb claiming to be a System came to find him.
System: Want to stay alive? Bind yourself to me first! Win over your sunny childhood friend and move the plot along. Put up with things for a little while, and you'll have a healthy life forever!
Ning Shuangyu went along with it.
But Yu Zhijie was gloomy and taciturn, and even the occasional thing he said could make a person furious. The way he looked at Ning Shuangyu seemed more like he was settling an old score. He was nothing like the bright and cheerful person the System had described.
Ning Shuangyu gritted his teeth: Liar!
Until... Ning Shuangyu followed the plot and climbed onto a rooftop. His legs trembling, he delivered his line: If you don't accept my confession, I'll jump from here!
He thought his straight childhood friend would look conflicted and distressed. Instead, Yu Zhijie calmly walked over, grabbed Ning Shuangyu, and jumped with him.
Ning Shuangyu was stunned when they landed on the air cushion.
Fine, the character's changed, but now the plot's getting rewritten too? That's a workplace injury! He wants to file a claim!
Later on... Ning Shuangyu stared wide-eyed. Was the person who'd just shoved a dress into his hands really Yu Zhijie?
He's a fully grown man, well, the original body seems to have been a femboy, but he isn't!
Feeling the tremor of fingers caressing his skin, Ning Shuangyu nearly burst into tears.
When the System finally came back, delighted to inspect the results in the small world, the detector's alarm blared deafeningly. The System circled the pair again and again as rows of garbled text flashed across its screen.
The tall, broad-shouldered man wrapped his arms around the unguarded boy, who was absorbed in a game. His eyes were filled with an obsession and possessiveness that could not be concealed.
The System let out a piercing shriek. This was not the original Yu Zhijie!
The next second, the man lifted his eyes and fixed them precisely on the System floating in the air, narrowing his gaze.
The System trembled: Host, we need to run...
From the top's perspective:
Yu Zhijie's past life had been a complete mess. He'd passed the imperial exams, rebelled, and killed. If he'd had the chance, he would have destroyed the whole world.
So, the instant a rift in time and space appeared, he leaped into the unknown without a backward glance.
Fortunately, Heaven showed him mercy.
This time, he would never let the other person go again. He didn't care what it took. Pride and wealth meant nothing. As long as he could earn the other's pity and affection...
Yu Zhijie was willing to hide every cruel and terrible part of himself, becoming a wolf in a dog's disguise.
