This is a world where multiple novels have merged. Everyone receives a unique System when they come of age.
At his eighteenth birthday party, Zhou Xingmian made a wish: he wanted the strongest System, so he could join the Special Operations Bureau and fight alongside his family.
The next day, he got the [More Children, More Blessings System].
The good news: The System is powerful. He can summon children at any time, like playing Pokemon, and throw them at his opponents' faces.
The bad news: He's a guy, and he has to raise affection levels before he can use his adopted sons in battle.
His family's affection for him is already the highest, so he should be able to use them...
Wait, they're so close. Why can't he make his parents his adopted children?
Since he can't use his family, Zhou Xingmian starts looking for adopted sons in the wild.
As it happens, his childhood friend Lu Xiaoyang has the [Straight Guy Selling BL Romance System] and is looking for a pretend wife.
Lu Xiaoyang's affection for him must be really high.
Zhou Xingmian can be Lu Xiaoyang's pretend wife, and Lu Xiaoyang can be Zhou Xingmian's eldest son. They can each keep their own family rankings.
Lu Xiaoyang has the Straight Guy Selling BL Romance System. The System wants him to be both straight and gay.
He needs to find a straight male wife he can hug and kiss.
Since he hasn't found anyone suitable, Lu Xiaoyang has already been held back for two years.
Today, Zhou Xingmian approaches him on his own. "Brother Yang, call me Dad and I'll be your wife!"
Lu Xiaoyang trusts him. There's no one straighter than Zhou Xingmian in the whole world. He definitely won't fall for him.
Zhou Xingmian trusts him. There's no one straighter than Lu Xiaoyang in the whole world. He definitely won't fall for him.
They agreed to be best friends forever, and neither of them was allowed to turn gay.
After Zhou Xingmian enters school and takes on a whole bunch of adopted sons, his childhood friend starts acting strange.
Only when Lu Xiaoyang corners him against a wall does Zhou Xingmian realize how serious things have become.
Lu Xiaoyang: Why do you have so many adopted sons? What about me? What am I?
Zhou Xingmian: More children, more blessings. The more adopted sons I have, the stronger I get. You're my eldest son. I even changed your name to Zhou Da Fu.
Lu Xiaoyang: ...
Zhou Xingmian: Say what you want, but keep your hands to yourself. You're the one picking a fight, and now you're getting mad at me. If you've got the guts, then screw me to death!
Lu Xiaoyang: Fine, fine, fine!
Zhou Xingmian: ???
Wait, not that kind of screw! You got the wrong idea! That's not what I meant!
...Actually, that works, too.
A straight best friend could never become your husband, right?
Reading guide:
1. A world where multiple Systems have merged + supernatural-instance arcs + everyday school life. Pretend turns real.
2. HE, 1v1, both are each other's first.
3. Both leads are straight at the start. Sunny, cheerful, scatterbrained bottom × older, tsundere top with a strong possessive streak.
4. Romance and plot are roughly evenly split. The leads dote on each other, and their feelings are mutual.
Theme: Stand together for a brighter tomorrow.
