"Mistaken Identity and a Stolen Reveal" Turning a Straight Guy Gay
Tan Yao transmigrates into a danmei novel where both leads die, becoming a background prince with money, free time, and no troubles.
Thinking of the main couple he'd once shipped with all his heart, Prince Tan makes a major decision: he will save the gentle, kind, angel-like protagonist who is the love interest.
The first step to saving him is getting close. Tan Yao confidently pretends to be injured, waiting for the little angel to show him some concern.
But the other man doesn't even look at him. He just walks away.
Tan Yao: ? This isn't how his character is supposed to act, is it? Am I imagining things?
Still, thanks to Tan Yao's persistence, he eventually manages to bring the little angel home.
The little angel is willing to climb trees to save kittens, provide working capital to struggling shops run by ordinary people, and even wash his hands and make a meal. Then he blinks innocently at Tan Yao and asks, "Is it good?"
Tan Yao: As expected of a little angel. So it really was just my imagination before ^-^
The longer they spend together, the more clingy the little angel becomes.
For instance, he sleeps with his feet touching Tan Yao's every night, and sometimes hugs him from behind and coos, "A Yao, pay attention to me."
Tan Yao: This damn irresistible brotherly love!
Unfortunately, the good times don't last. Tan Yao gets word that the little angel's uncle, the lawless General Yun Weizhi, who is stationed far away at the border, has come to the capital to host a banquet!
According to the original novel, there's a good chance he will hurt the little angel.
Tan Yao is flustered: This plot isn't right! Wasn't Yun Weizhi supposed to be at the border? Why has he come to the capital now?
He hurriedly warns his little angel again and again: "Your uncle is cold-blooded and ruthless. Stay far away from him, and don't go to that stupid banquet!"
The little angel's expression turns a little strange, but he obediently agrees: "I'll do as you say, A Yao."
But when Tan Yao wakes up, he finds that the person beside him has disappeared again.
The people in the manor tell him that the little angel ran toward the General's residence, probably to attend the banquet.
How could this be happening!
Tan Yao rushes to the banquet in a panic. Only after scanning the room and spotting the other man sitting there safe and sound does he finally relax.
Thank goodness, he hasn't been killed on the spot.
But before he can fully catch his breath, Tan Yao watches his own imperial elder brother raise his cup to the little angel.
"General Yun, you have had a long journey. Allow me to offer you a toast."
Tan Yao: ???
Tan Yao's eyes widen in shock: ...Holy crap, who are you?!
