Jiang Yan died and was bound by the System, forced to play a cannon-fodder character in world after world.
The mission in the first world was simple: play a gloomy male supporting character, fawn over the heroine, and get killed by thugs before the male lead confesses. He put on a mask and glasses, hunched his back and drew in his shoulders, quietly becoming a shadow.
But he didn't know that the moment he first took off his mask, three people's scripts went off the rails at once.
The aloof male lead started spending more time in the dorm. His childhood friend's sketchbook showed nothing but one person's profile. The coffee shop owner's hand came to rest at his waist.
Jiang Yan thought he was only a bystander, and that death was just how a mission ended. Until he realized that the things he'd taken for "kindness" had crossed the line long ago. And he cared far more than he ever thought he did.
He wanted to follow the plot. But the plot wouldn't let him go.
The countdown begins. This time, whoever loses control first loses.
Premise: The universally adored cannon fodder only wants to follow the plot, but everyone wants to make him stay. The countdown begins. Whoever loses control first loses.
He died on the last page of the script, while they lived on with their memories of him.
