++++++Currently serializing: Repay Him in His Own Scumbag Ways

Lin Zhi has been alive for over twenty years when a System suddenly comes looking for him.

[You've lived like a hothouse flower, clinging to other people from childhood onward. Have you ever considered living for yourself?]

Lin Zhi has been strictly controlled since childhood. After graduating, he has no choice but to move in with the scumbag Yi Sicheng, as promised by their elders, so they can grow closer and eventually get married.

The System tells Lin Zhi that Yi Sicheng is seeing someone else. Lin Zhi remains perfectly calm and says he already knows.

[!!! Then why don't you say anything?!]

Lin Zhi's brows lift. "But he gives me 60,000 a month..."

The System is devastated when it realizes it can't persuade Lin Zhi to change his attitude. So it comes up with a different idea.

If the scumbag tops around, Lin Zhi should too!

So Lin Zhi tracks down the handsome waiter he'd met before. After repeatedly tempting him and giving him gifts, he successfully becomes his sugar daddy.

But the scumbag, who used to look down on Lin Zhi, suddenly wants him back. Lin Zhi gives him a firm rejection.

Scumbag top: [... Break it off with him. He's just a pretty boy who's conning you.]

Then, at a banquet, the pretty boy Lin Zhi is supporting stands at the center of the room, praised by everyone as the youngest CEO around.

What! The pretty boy I'm supporting is a CEO who studied overseas?

The first time Gu Yunbai meets Lin Zhi, Lin Zhi crashes into his arms. When he leaves, Gu Yunbai watches him get into a luxury car with another man.

The second time, Gu Yunbai rescues Lin Zhi from harassment at a nightclub. His heart softens, and he takes him home.

The third time, he sees Lin Zhi eating with a married man. His friend says Lin Zhi is probably that man's lover.

Gu Yunbai decides to stay away from the pretty little liar, but Lin Zhi acts as if he's set his sights on him and refuses to let go.

He sends Gu Yunbai pictures of himself to tempt him, then photos of luxury goods and asks if they look good.

Gu Yunbai tells himself these are such low-class tricks that he won't fall for them, but secretly buys one of the luxury items to give to Lin Zhi.

He thinks he's already fallen for him.

Just then, the little liar puts a bank card in front of him, sets the luxury gift beside it, and looks at him shyly.

"Come be mine. I've got plenty of money. I can support you."

Gu Yunbai: "..."

He actually took another man's money to try to keep me as his sugar baby??!!

Reader's Guide:

1. Modern setting + same-sex marriage is legal.

2. The scumbag top isn't the love interest, and the two never get married! They never get married!

3. The bottom is delicate, beautiful, and socially anxious. He's a hopeless romantic and cries very easily.

The writing and logic are terrible. Don't take them seriously.

4. One-on-one romance.

Coming soon: The Heartthrob Who Keeps Breaking the Plot [Quick Transmigration]

As an excellent mission-taker, Lin Luo is very confident in his abilities. He thinks he's at least A+, if not S+.

But his very first mission goes off the rails, completely. He refuses to accept it, thinking it was just a fluke. Then his second mission, his third...

They all go off the rails! Not one goes according to plan!

Why is it that no matter what kind of mission he gets, they all fall in love with him?!

[Mission One: The Cannon Fodder Who Bullies the Protagonist]

As a superstar with absolute power in the entertainment industry, Lin Luo is even crueler than the original plot. He forces himself on the protagonist gong, humiliates him, tramples on him, and threatens to blacklist him if he doesn't comply!

According to the plot, once Lin Luo's family goes bankrupt and falls from power, the protagonist gong will torment him horribly. Lin Luo finally waits for that day, ready to go through a period of torture and finish the mission. But instead, the protagonist gong and the protagonist shou start fighting over him!

[Mission Two: The Male Lead's Loyal Underling]

As a little zombie who can't even talk, Lin Luo quietly stays by the male lead's side and follows his orders. He takes a hit whenever he needs to. His mission is to die taking a bullet for the female lead.

After plenty of twists and turns, Lin Luo finally succeeds in taking the hit. He thinks at least this mission hasn't gone too far off the rails, but at the end, the male lead slits the female lead's throat.

[Mission Three: The Cruel and Effeminate Villain]

After the first two failures, the System decides Lin Luo might be good at affection-rating missions. To recover its points, it chooses the hardest one.

Lin Luo looks at the protagonist shou, lying in front of him and barely alive after being tortured, and thinks, "?"

Then the System tells him that the protagonist gong will storm in and slit his throat in a month, saving the protagonist shou. He's on his own.

Angst-filled melodrama. Three worlds planned for now. The shou is somewhat of a heartthrob. Basically, it's all very melodramatic! Rivals become lovers, and lovers become rivals.

The blurb is tentative and may change.

Theme: Love life and study hard
