The Laid-Back Beauty Is Doted on by Everyone

Yu Xian was exactly what his name suggested: a bona fide lazybones. And with a wealthy family and doting relatives, he got to be as lazy as he pleased.

But one day, he woke up and discovered he was living in a book.

The protagonist of the book was a classic overpowered hero. Born into poverty, he had one lucky break after another, going from penniless to a rising star in the business world in just a few years.

Meanwhile, Yu Xian was the protagonist's foil, a disposable roommate who went from a rich young master to an ordinary person struggling to get by after his family lost everything, also in just a few years.

Yu Xian panicked. How could he be a carefree lazybones if his family went bankrupt?

System: Don't worry, your System is here!

Looking at the System bound to him, the lazybones was on guard. "What do I have to do?"

Nine out of ten free lunches are poisoned, and the last one is deadly.

The System was ambitious and impassioned. "Since you've got the protagonist's script, of course you have to steal his luck and enjoy a successful life!"

Yu Xian looked thoroughly opposed. "Just hearing that sounds exhausting. Don't you have anything I can do while lying down?"

The System was flexible. "Of course, of course! There's an express route to success: become the protagonist's wife and enjoy a lie-flat life!"

Yu Xian: "...I'm a man."

Three seconds later.

Yu Xian: "Whatever. I guess I can bend a little."

His younger brother had fallen in love with a poor boy and was chasing after him alone. Big Brother Yu was worried sick.

"What do you see in him?"

Yu Xian answered confidently, "He's really good to me!"

The Yu family nearly passed out. Did that mean there was nothing else they could praise him for?

The family stayed up all night reading How to Save Someone with a Love-Brain, then went to find Yu Xian, determined to break up the lovebirds.

They expected to find a pitiful little thing groveling in the dirt.

But instead...

They saw a lazy emperor who walked without using his legs, ate without lifting a finger, and was only missing the coronation.

Big Brother Yu rubbed his face. "The Yu family has finally met its match in the field of spoiling kids."

Bonus scene:

Before they got together.

The roommate was always worrying about what would happen if his family went bankrupt...

Luo Xiao felt the pressure mount. He upgraded from an ordinary workaholic to a Promax workaholic, attending classes, starting a business, and supporting his future wife all at once, determined to outwork everyone.

The harder the workaholic worked, the lazier the lazybones got.

Even the System couldn't stand it. "Host, I think the point of pursuing someone is to pursue them. You have to get out of bed. If you lie there all day, love isn't going to come to you.

A lie-flat life means lying flat after you become the male lead's wife, not just lying down as you go along!"

Yu Xian didn't even open his eyes. "I'm pursuing him."

Watching him expertly accept food from the supposedly cold, ruthless, career-obsessed male lead of the original story, the System's CPU nearly burned out. Which one of them had gotten the wrong script?

Coming soon

Zhuang Mingqiu was a beautiful little bird with rainbow-colored feathers. After an old scholar surnamed Zhuang found him, he gave him a name and cared for him like a child for more than ten years.

After the scholar passed away, his descendants were unwilling to look after the delicate, high-maintenance little bird, so they abandoned him in the mountains.

The pampered little bird had forgotten how to hunt. He fell into a pile of bugs and looked at the food right in front of him with disgust.

And then he fainted from hunger.

When he awoke, he was locked in an exquisite, luxurious cage. He heard someone say they were going to present him to the King of Beijiang as a birthday gift.

The little bird chirped in confusion. "What is... a river beast?"

He only knew that the River God gave people golden axes.

Would a river beast do that, too?

After spending a few days with all the food and drink he could want, Zhuang Mingqiu saw the legendary King of Beijiang and was struck with terror. He flapped his little wings and tried to escape.

Th-this King of Beijiang... he's a giant snow wolf demon!

He eats birds!!!

-

The King of Beijiang, Duan Lang, had recently acquired a beautiful, plump little bird with rainbow-colored feathers. A faint aura of demonic energy surrounded it, a sign that it was about to cultivate into human form.

Since it was difficult for a spirit to cultivate, the Wolf King brought the bird everywhere, never letting it out of his sight. He cared for it attentively, hoping to imbue it with demonic energy and teach it how to cultivate.

But in the helpless little bird's eyes, it was all a ploy to fatten him up before butchering him.

After several failed escape attempts, Zhuang Mingqiu had no choice but to act timid and meek in front of the Wolf King, chirping submissively and trying to starve himself thin to curb the king's appetite.

The first thing he said after taking human form was, "Could you please not eat me?"

"I'm all bones. I'm not even enough to get stuck in your teeth QAQ"

The usually taciturn, imposing Wolf King gave him a meaningful look.

He wouldn't eat him, but he still had to eat.
