Lin Chencheng was bound by System 123 and given a mission: enter three novels and play the vicious cannon-fodder character. He had to give the three male leads money and resources, bring them together with their respective protagonists, then die a miserable death once they had achieved fame and success, in exchange for being reborn.
He never imagined the three novels would merge into one.
Now he had to suck up to all three of them at once. And all three of their intended love interests had disappeared.
The System said, "Host, you'll have to take their place and make them fall in love with you."
Lin Chencheng: "???"
Even more absurdly...
Qin Xiao, from the first world, was supposed to hate him most. But when Lin Chencheng snuck out in the middle of the night to "work overtime," Qin Xiao blocked him in the entryway, eyes rimmed red. "You smell like someone else."
Yan Yi, from the second world, was supposed to hate him to the bone. Yet when Lin Chencheng tried to make a run for it, Yan Yi grabbed his wrist. "Boss, I still haven't tested the marksmanship you taught me."
Shen Yuanzhan, from the third world, had a skin hunger disorder and hated all physical contact. Yet he pinned Lin Chencheng against the wall with a cold laugh. "Lin Chencheng, you touch me and then run off. Who do you think I am?"
As Lin Chencheng watched the three men appear in his living room at the same time, he had just one thought:
I'm done for. I've been caught!
That was until he realized the feeling they gave him, their occasional looks and gestures, even the way they bit his ear, were all exactly the same.
Lin Chencheng: "...System, come out and explain this."
The System was playing dead.
[One-on-one romance, the male lead is the same person split into three, and they eventually merge]
[The devoted, witty, pampered bottom who loves acting like an office worker x the madly possessive, loyal puppy-top who's jealous of himself]
[Both leads are each other's only one. Happy ending. Qin Xiao's romance takes center stage early on, with plenty of love-triangle drama later]
Theme: No matter how hard life gets, live each day to the fullest
