Desperately Seeking Scum Tops: Must the Cannon Fodder Step In? [Quick Transmigration]

In recent years, the various quick-transmigration departments have been reforming scum gong characters or replacing them in their small worlds. This has led to a shortage of scum gongs, leaving the Scum Gong Department facing a talent crisis: "No Scum Gongs Available." The department head therefore issued the "Notice on Promoting Cannon Fodder from Various Small Worlds to Scum Gong Positions," effective immediately.

The protagonist's cannon-fodder underling gong (Mu Fei) × the aloof, peerless darling of heaven shou (Gu Yanji)

Mu Fei is informed by the System that he's in a novel about an abused shou, but the scum gong has already been transferred to another world for reform.

As the cannon fodder who acts obedient toward the darling of heaven while resenting him deep down, Mu Fei must take the scum gong's place and plot to possess and humiliate him.

Mu Fei: That's it? This isn't scummy enough.

So Mu Fei secretly blindfolds the darling of heaven and, as a mysterious stranger, possesses and threatens him. In public, he continues to act like an obedient underling, offering comfort and showing him every kindness after "happening to discover" that Gu Yanji has been humiliated.

He takes his body and deceives his heart, truly making it so that "by day he calls him big brother, and at night big brother calls him."

The System marvels again and again: The Scum Gong Department needs a talent like you!

Once the System determines that his scum gong score is full, Mu Fei loses interest too. He lets the other man go and leaves of his own accord, settling down in a remote little town to live a quiet life.

What he doesn't expect is that, not long afterward, the darling of heaven, who should have recovered from his trauma and returned to the heights to bask in everyone's flattery and admiration, comes to this remote town.

Cornered with nowhere to run, Mu Fei finally faces the dangerous-looking darling of heaven before him. His sharp eyes narrow. He doesn't look like someone who's suffered trauma at all.

"What, you lost interest in me and don't want to play anymore?"

"I never agreed."

The honest, wooden cannon fodder (Jiang Wu) × the aloof, high-and-mighty beauty he is forced to keep

System: You're cannon fodder in a novel about domineering possession. You must take the scum gong's place and force the aloof beauty into your possession.

Jiang Wu has no choice but to grit his teeth and do as instructed.

Taking advantage of the long summer vacation, so it won't interfere with the aloof beauty's studies, he locks him up.

The aloof beauty is easy to get along with. Though he despises Jiang Wu, he remains quiet and obedient, never making a fuss.

For two months, Jiang Wu works diligently, day and night. As the start of the school year approaches, he finally manages to endure until his scum gong score is full.

He opens the door and hints repeatedly that the other man can leave. But the aloof beauty seems not to understand, and still quietly waits for him to come home every day.

Jiang Wu has no choice but to spell it out: "I'm letting you go. From now on, I'll make sure to stay out of your sight. Just pretend we never met."

The other man says nothing. He glances at him, picks up the TV remote, and turns it on.

The screen lights up, showing surveillance footage from every angle of the room. There are as many as twenty strange camera angles, recording their intimate moments over this period.

The aloof beauty gives him a knowing smile.

"Never met? Like this, sleeping together every night and 'never having met'?"

Jiang Wu: ...

When did he film all this?

The ambitious prince who failed to seize the throne, Chu Zhi, × the decisive general shou who repays a debt of gratitude

In his previous life, Chu Zhi loses the struggle for the throne and dies. Reborn, he learns that he's in a novel about an abused shou, where a powerful minister and a general are the couple.

He's a cannon fodder in the story, and the general who is the protagonist shou according to the System is none other than the man he kicked aside in his previous life, just before he was about to take the throne.

After waking up reborn, Chu Zhi reads through the original novel's romance plot and laughs casually.

How pitiful, General X. After I used you, you still have to be tricked and toyed with by someone else?

Chu Zhi readily accepts the mission to take the original scum gong's place and torment the shou.

General X, you must always be my sword, conspiring with me in all my dirty deeds.

Rather than let someone else deceive your feelings after I've used you, wouldn't it be better if I were the only one to toy with you from beginning to end...

Later, when the scum gong score is full, the shou refuses to leave.

"Could you... deceive me a little longer?"
