[Theatrical, fastidious top who feigns suffering to clear his name x a sharp-tongued, soft-hearted, self-tormenting, lustful bottom]
[The bottom is a total horndog and can't resist the top ovo]
[Also known as “Playing the Victim and Using Your Looks Really Works”]
Some people believe that a protagonist can't grow without going through hardship.
Xie Bing is the one who creates that hardship.
A professional villain in the quick transmigration Bureau, his jobs include, but aren't limited to, abandoning a lover during the apocalypse, betraying a close friend at court, and killing a Daoist partner at a cultivation sect, all to make the protagonist see the light, grow through suffering, and find true love.
He completes every mission swiftly and cleanly, leaving the protagonist furious with hatred while he walks away without a backward glance, his good deeds hidden from view.
Until the System issues a new mission: Host, return to your original world at once and clear Xie Bing's name.
Xie Bing looks at the protagonist, who wants to skin him alive and yet can't stop sneaking glances at his abs, and falls into deep thought.
[World One: The spineless top who abandons his partner while fleeing the apocalypse]
With the System's help, Xie Bing has the time of his life acting out his role.
When the protagonist deliberately makes him sleep on the floor, he comes down with a fever. When he's made to eat cold leftovers, he pretends to have a stomachache. When he's told to fight zombies barehanded, he pretends he has no powers, then feigns exhaustion and injury...
After playing the victim again and again, he successfully makes it into the protagonist's bed and gets to eat delicious, piping-hot meals.
The protagonist's thought process goes something like this:
“I'll make him suffer until he wishes he were dead!”
“He must have had his reasons.”
“He's been through so much...”
“Damn it! Why does he only spit blood and never explain himself?!”

[World Three: The heartless Daoist master top who stabs his beloved as the first step toward godhood]
[Hatred is a grievance that swallows you whole]
Content warnings:
1. The worlds are undecided and may change.
2. The top's illnesses are all caused by the System to serve the plot. His suffering is real, but he's extremely powerful. A little bit of everyone-loves-him.
3. Since the story follows the bottom's journey from villainous to redeemed, there will be quite a bit from his point of view.
4. The top and bottom are one-on-one, and the bottom is the same person in every world.
