The Villain I Raised Came Through

Cheng Nuo's new phone has an unremovable cultivation game.

He was never interested in raising characters, but this game can actually connect to the real world! Completing quests not only lets him raise a genuine cultivation powerhouse, but also earns him treasures from the world of immortal heroes!

So Cheng Nuo gets hooked. Whatever the protagonist lacks, he provides, caring for him every step of the way!

The little protagonist is impoverished and starving?

A care package of teddy bear cookies, coming right up!

The little protagonist has fainted from the cold in the snow?

Heat packs, charge!

The little protagonist is bullied by his fellow disciples?

A shower of thumbtacks to skewer you bunch of losers!

But he soon discovers something else:

"Don't people usually get a golden finger after falling off a cliff? How come my guy has nothing and is about to fall to his death?"

"Don't people usually repay a hero who saves them with their hand in marriage? Why is this girl trying to kill me to cover it up?"

"I finally caught a master who has attained the Way to farm a dungeon... Wait! Is he trying to possess someone?"

Cheng Nuo: Why is this story all suffering and no fun? Did I raise the wrong person?

When he realizes he's raised a villainous boss with a life full of misfortune, Cheng Nuo has mixed feelings.

Even more complicated is the fact that the ill-fated villain has crawled right out of the screen!

Cheng Nuo: Aah! Don't come any closer!

[Highlights]

1. Brooding, steady top who crawled out of the screen * easygoing bottom who raises a kid and yells, "Don't come any closer!"

2. Younger top, sweet romance.

3. Originally titled "I Raised the Villain," but I loved the cover too much to change it.

Frog's upcoming novel: "Bring on the Money, Let It Come from the Protagonists"

The Nan family went bankrupt.

Nan Jianyue had just signed the house auction agreement when he got word from the hospital that his father was critically ill. His troubles came one after another. On his way to the hospital, he was in a car accident and died, only to transmigrate into a novel about a real and fake young master. He became the fake young master who stole the protagonist's life, and was bound to a "Wealth Freedom System": he earns money whenever he makes physical contact with a character from the novel!

The more important the character's role, the more he earns. Once he saves up a million, he can withdraw it and help his family in another world pay off their debts!

The novel's plot begins when the protagonist transfers to a prestigious high school, so Nan Jianyue gets to work:

Hug the security guard: Wealth +3 yuan

Rub the homeroom teacher's bald head: Wealth +20 yuan

Interlace fingers with the icy second male lead: Wealth +1,000 yuan

"Accidentally" touch the male lead's hand: Wealth +100,000 yuan

"Aah, we're going to be rich, everyone!"

To reach his goal, Nan Jianyue spends every day hanging around the male lead, He Shiyan, trying every way he can think of to get close. But He Shiyan has a cleanliness obsession and hates physical contact, so every day he blushes and tells Nan Jianyue to "keep your distance."

As luck would have it, the protagonist transfers in the next day, so Nan Jianyue really does keep his distance: he goes to get close to the protagonist instead!

Later, after the math competition, Nan Jianyue is pulled into a warm embrace by the roadside.

He Shiyan is still blushing. His hands are trembling, and he's clearly not used to such close contact, but he refuses to let go of the arm wrapped tightly around Nan Jianyue's waist. His voice muffled, he says, "There are lots of cars. Don't wander too far."

Bonus scene:

To pay off his family's debt as soon as possible, Nan Jianyue only takes one day off a week. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, he hugs the male lead from behind after he gets badly hurt in a fight but insists he's fine. On Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, he takes off his clothes to cool down the feverish protagonist by acting as a human cold compress.

As he watches his wealth climb, he grins so hard his cheeks might split.

Then the milk tea shop makes a mistake and delivers the wrong "first milk tea of autumn" orders he'd placed for the two protagonists. Both of them appear in front of him with dark expressions: "Who do you actually like?!"

Nan Jianyue: "I-I-I..." Only money.

The next day, Nan Jianyue calls in sick and hides at home, rubbing himself against the male lead's coat. He's caught in the act.

Nan Jianyue: "Wah, I didn't know there was a withdrawal fee QAQ..."

[Highlights and Content Warnings]

1. Money-obsessed, uninterested-in-romance bottom and a tsundere, secretly sincere top who is exceptionally good at falling for his own schemes.

2. A sweet little citrus-yogurt-flavored romance, one-on-one.

3. The official male lead is the original novel's male lead. The bottom has a mild harem-attracting quality.

4. I might also start "Please, Just Let Me Be His Stand-In" or "Save That Aloof Bottom."

Theme: Distance makes the heart grow fonder.
