-- [A little preview of an upcoming story (Forced to Be a Tentacle's Mommy). If you're interested, feel free to bookmark it~]
Xie Yu is a scumbag so vile that both humans and gods despise him. One day, a voice appears in his head.
[Hello, I'm the Scumbag System!]
[You have an extraordinary talent for being a scumbag! Play a cannon-fodder scumbag in all kinds of worlds, complete plot points, and experience lives unlike any other!]
Xie Yu isn't worried in the slightest. In fact, he's delighted!
What a perfect chance to take off on a trip!
World One: The Playboy of an Elite Academy.
Iris Saint-Germain Academy is a prestigious school with a history spanning hundreds of years. Founded by a top conglomerate, it was built exclusively for heirs.
[You are one of the F4 in a story set at an aristocratic academy, a dashing playboy. Neglected because your parents are divorced and neither spends time with you, you live for fun and treat romance as a game, never giving anyone your heart.]
[But the days are peaceful and dull, as lifeless as stagnant water. Then a newly admitted scholarship student drops into the lake like a pebble, sending ripples across the surface.]
[You discover, to your surprise, that your friends have started spending more and more time with one particular scholarship student, the protagonist shou. At first it's just one of them, then two, then all three are drawn to him.]
[You get curious. With no conscience between you, you bet that you can win over the scholarship student within a month, then, once he's fallen for you, dump him without mercy for the sake of the bet. This will set him on course to meet the true protagonist, the cold, domineering F4 leader gong, and become the catalyst for the beginning of their relationship.]
Xie Yu: Easy! I'll just be myself!
He doesn't take the task seriously. He jokes and bickers with the other F4 members, while also following the script and pursuing that "tough little weed" shou.
But the plot goes galloping off like a horse that's thrown off its reins.
F3 watch.
Xie Yu seems to have genuinely become invested in the scholarship student: private dates, carefully chosen flowers, and a dazzling diamond flashing just below his navel. A navel piercing. They had no idea when he'd gotten it.
Before they knew it, Xie Yu was looking at them less and less.
Xie Yu: ? Sure, I'm a scumbag, but I take every relationship seriously 😮.
Possibly coming later:
[You're the hypocritical guide who abandoned a disabled marshal, only to be tied up by the marshal's spirit form in his mental landscape and "guided" day and night.]
[You're a con artist who plans to use your beauty to swindle treasure from a mermaid prince, but you end up tricking an octopus wizard from the deep sea instead. He drags you into his underwater cavern and makes you his exclusive collectible...]
[You're a sent-down youth who "abandons his wife and child" to move to the countryside. (If I write this, the child will be adopted or the gong's younger brother, not a real child.)]

Reader's Guide:
1. Although the story is structured as quick transmigration, I only have inspiration for the first world in the synopsis, and haven't written the later worlds.
2. The shou is a promiscuous scumbag and is not pure. There may be one-sided heartache on the gong's part, and the ending may not be a happy one. The shou may simply be happy on his own, still living carefree. ♥ I write for fun and because it's my thing.
3. The gong is pure in both body and heart, and there will be no flirtation between gongs. I personally can't stand a shou who tops a gong, so I won't write that. If you like a gong topping a shou, then enjoy it, okay!
4. This is a story about someone adored by everyone, and everything serves my preferences. There will be lots of descriptions of appearances.
5. They transmigrate in person. The world is an illusion, and only becomes real when the shou arrives.
6. Please don't criticize the shou, please don't criticize the shou. I'm begging you ♥♥♥ It's just my personal thing 🥺
7. To be added.
Upcoming story: Forced to Be a Tentacle's Mommy.
Synopsis:
A frail, softhearted office worker and straight man forced into motherhood as the shou X a gloomy tentacle son as the gong X an occasional cannon-fodder gong who appears out of nowhere.
One softhearted step after another, until the softhearted straight man gets thoroughly screwed.
Heh ;-)
I got a case of the mother complex, so I wrote this.
Ye Zhao is a kind office worker with a modest amount of savings. He jumps into a river to save a drowning child, but when he climbs out of the riverbed, everything around him has changed.
Ye Zhao stares at the unfamiliar world, bewildered.
Before he can react, a group of strange-looking people appear before him. A snake tail coils around him, and they seize him and lock him up in a research institute.
Ye Zhao finally realizes that he has transmigrated!
From what he can tell, this is a world polluted by monsters. Humanity has been contaminated by genetic pollution and is heading toward extinction, while plants and animals have mutated and taken over this blue planet.
They call themselves the New Humans.
He was captured because he looks too much like the legendary Old Humans.
Ye Zhao: "..." Are you insane?
This is really urgent. How do I prove I'm not an Old Human?
Ye Zhao is forced to undergo more and more experiments, each test report more detailed than the last.
Worst of all, "they" seem to have decided to dissect him for the sake of the New Humans' future!
What future?
All Ye Zhao can see is a bleak road ahead.
He grits his teeth and calmly tries to think of a way out. As he is caught while escaping, a strange tentacle smashes through layer after layer of walls.
Eyes of different sizes are embedded between its suckers, and a split mouth gapes at the end of the tentacle... Ye Zhao catches only a fleeting glimpse before the mental shock knocks him down.
When he wakes up, the research facility has been completely destroyed. Among the piles of rubble lies a tiny octopus-person?
About the size of a baby.
It has a human head, which is much too large in proportion to its body, and a thin, long neck that droops helplessly to one side, unable to support the weight. Its lower half is made of tentacles of uneven lengths.
It's seriously sanity-draining.
It's on the verge of death.
Unable to bear leaving it behind, Ye Zhao picks it up and takes it with him, since he's become a test subject too.
*
Perhaps because Ye Zhao saved it, or perhaps because he was the first thing it saw when it opened its eyes, the octopus seems excessively attached to him.
It stretches out its tentacles to cling to him, its suckers sticking to sensitive spots. It opens its pitch-black eyes and its mouth full of sharp teeth, then calls him, "Mommy."
Ye Zhao is too frightened to think straight. "I'm your big brother."
The octopus grows quickly. In just a week, it's as tall as a three-year-old human. Thinking about his swollen chest, Ye Zhao finally lets out a breath of relief. He should be able to release it into the wild now.
But this world is dangerous everywhere, especially for someone with his human identity. Ye Zhao is so frail that not even a temp agency will hire him! Then, after an accident, he discovers that even after the octopus's tentacles fall off, they can still move and obey his commands.
With no other choice, he uses the tentacles to disguise himself and provide for them. Once he has earned enough money and their life has stabilized,
Ye Zhao grits his teeth and sends the octopus to school.
But on the very first day back, it calls him "Mommy" again.
Ye Zhao is devastated and exasperated. He worked so hard to correct it.
He's its big brother!
And so, a human and an octopus make a life together.
Apart from the octopus occasionally being too clingy and sucking his chest until it swells, it really does treat him like its mother.
Until Ye Zhao discovers a secret: the octopus he's raising seems to like him. Its diary is filled with clingy, unsettling words that Ye Zhao can't accept.
"Mommy, why do you look at other people? Why can't you keep your eyes on me? ... I want to tie a knot between the two of us with my tentacles. Would Mommy struggle? Be surprised? Think I'm disgusting? Get angry? Mommy would be so cute like that, too... I want you so badly... I want to be tangled up with Mommy for all eternity."
What are you doing? I worked so hard to convince myself to raise the octopus as my child. I even bought all those parenting books. I was taking childcare seriously... So how did I raise it wrong?
And I've told you countless times! I'm your big brother!
Ye Zhao is utterly distraught. With no other choice, he can only quietly distance himself little by little.
*
The octopus swings its countless tentacles, cleaning every speck of dust from the forty-square-meter room. Mommy really hasn't been good lately. He won't take his tentacles to work, won't eat the food they've cooled for him, and has been getting closer and closer to his coworkers.
His skin is snow-white and delicate, as fragile as if he could break at a touch. He has no weapons to protect himself, yet he's bold enough to wander alone among countless New Humans. Doesn't Mommy know how they look at him?
Greedy. Wanting to swallow him whole. Disgusting.
If it weren't for his tentacles the last time, and the time before that, he would have become someone else's mommy.
It feels awful. He doesn't like it.
He wants Mommy to stay with him alone. He wants to crawl into Mommy's belly and return to the warm nest where it all began.
Ye Zhao: Every day, I struggle to survive among monsters while raising a child. Don't come near me 😨 What exactly is wrong with my parenting plan? 😱
The octopus: Eat, go to school, and do two things at once. Use my tentacles to beat up cold-blooded monsters who covet Mommy. Every day, I work hard to grow up and take care of Mommy.
The other monsters: Coworker, why don't you look like us? 🤔 You smell kind of nice. We're coworkers now, so let me lick you once 😋 Ow 🤕 (black and blue). Coworker, your tentacles are nothing like you.
♥♥ The moment you entered my life, my world had room for no one but you and the shadow you cast. Don't reject me. Don't be afraid of me.
Please love me ♥
Rough synopsis, to be polished.
Theme: Just one glance from you was enough to make me think of you morning and night.
