A Guide to Raising the Second Male Lead

Cheng Yu died in a car accident and transmigrated into the book Doted On.

He also got saddled with a System, which promised he could live again if he fixed the bugs in the book.

The gentle second male lead, Ji Bozhou, was twelve years old at the time, forced by a bug to wander a remote small town and suffer unimaginable hardships.

In short, he was about to die.

Cheng Yu had to make sure Ji Bozhou stayed safe until he turned nineteen. After that, his biological parents would take him back to their wealthy family, where he would meet the female lead and begin his career as the second male lead.

Cheng Yu had no choice but to adopt the homeless real young master, take care of his food and clothing, improve his grades, and provide the necessary emotional support along the way.

But why was the second male lead's gaze growing stranger and stranger?

This wasn't just his imagination, damn it!

After Ji Bozhou confessed to him, Cheng Yu ran away to keep the plot from going off the rails.

Ji Bozhou often thought that every bit of warmth he had felt as a boy had been because of that person.

But he had left him, too.

He wouldn't get away.

Cheng Yu never expected that, after running away for five years, he'd have to come crawling back.

What a nightmare! An absolute nightmare!

For some reason, the gentle second male lead, Ji Bozhou, had changed. He'd completely abandoned the plot and hadn't paid the female lead any attention at all. His personality had a staggering zero percent resemblance to the word "gentle."

To get the plot back on track, Cheng Yu became the second son of the Cheng family of Jing City, returning after years studying abroad.

He changed his appearance and identity, then returned to Jing City to take Ji Bozhou's place and play the part of the gentle second male lead.

But when Cheng Yu smiled at the female lead,

why was Ji Bozhou looking at him with that strange expression again?

Could it be... he'd recognized him?

Ji Bozhou: Heh. Got you.
