Short-tempered cutie shou X domineering, possessive, jealous gong] Young Master Bai Luo had an easy ride through life, using his family's status to throw his weight around from kindergarten through junior high. Then he met Qin Chaoci in high school and hit the biggest setback of his life! Qin Chaoci was taller and more handsome, a top student, and, most importantly, came from an even more powerful family. The two were like flint and steel, and naturally became sworn enemies. Bai Luo woke up one day in his own body seven years in the future. At twenty-four, Bai Luo had lost his mother, been stripped of power by his father, and gained a younger half-brother. To protect himself, he'd become a minor celebrity, a laughingstock among the wealthy. Newly transmigrated, Bai Luo was stunned. Suddenly, a tall, handsome man with a cold, restrained air wrapped his arms around Bai Luo's waist from behind. With overwhelming force, he kissed Bai Luo until he cried! Bai Luo never expected that Qin Chaoci, his sworn enemy from school, would become the most powerful man in the capital, while Bai Luo himself had become his secret lover! As Qin Chaoci's sworn enemy, Bai Luo was sure he would be cold and cruel, despising him completely. He might even mock, humiliate, or abuse him! But Qin Chaoci trusted him, protected him, and doted on him. He even publicly claimed that Bai Luo was the man he'd been hopelessly in love with for years. Apart from being jealous, he was the perfect boyfriend! Bai Luo: ??? This lie is so convincing, even I'm starting to believe it. Bai Luo thought it was just a mutually beneficial arrangement, but he ended up falling for Qin Chaoci and even started wanting to make their fake relationship real! Then one day, paparazzi exposed the fact that Qin Chaoci, head of the Qin family in the capital, was married. Everyone began cursing Bai Luo as a homewrecker who'd slept his way to the top. Even Bai Luo started doubting himself and wanted to end their agreement. Qin Chaoci opened Bai Luo's livestream and, in front of millions of viewers, held up his marriage certificate with Bai Luo. With a fierce look and an impatient expression, he said, "I'm on a date with my husband. Anyone got a problem with that?" Bai Luo, dumbfounded: After all that time wanting to make our fake relationship real, turns out I'm dating someone while married? All that apparent arrogance, coldness, and dislike was fake. Only his love for you was real. [Blurb written on April 1, 2020. A screenshot has been posted on Weibo.] Coming soon: The Fan Favorite Wins by Roleplaying [Infinite]. Please add it to your favorites! Yun An died on the day he came of age, while summoning his contracted ghost. There probably wasn't a weaker celestial master in the world. He'd actually died from the backlash of the ghost he'd summoned. When he opened his eyes again, he was in another world. This was a world of ghosts and monsters, gloomy and terrifying, like the eighteenth level of the underworld. The veteran players looked at the newcomer with pity. He was stunningly beautiful, with a face as lovely as a woman's. What a shame. Beauties like him usually died first in games if no one protected them. Then the first instance began, and they watched in astonishment as Yun An rushed without hesitation into the arms of an NPC seated on a throne, handsome as a god descended from heaven, but with a hint of wickedness in his smile. Yun An: Waaaah, it's my contracted ghost! My contracted ghost! Hua Jiang held the person in his arms with a disgruntled expression. He'd emerged from the blazing depths of hell and hadn't even had a second to admire the beautiful human world before his contractor dragged him into this cursed place. But contractor and contracted ghost shared one life between them. As a ghost from outside the game, he had to take the form of an NPC in every instance and help Yun An clear it. Yun An immediately understood. He quickly checked the game's backstory prompt, then nestled in Hua Jiang's arms and called sweetly, "Young master, don't you remember me? I'm your missing fiancee!" Hua Jiang froze, then gritted his teeth. "Then why don't you look like you did before?" Yun An blinked and asked uncertainly, "Because I got plastic surgery?" Hua Jiang: ...Fine. I declare you my long-lost fiancee. Everyone: ??? That actually worked? Are NPCs really that easy to fool? Someone couldn't help jeering, "Ghosts aren't that easy to fool. He's definitely just playing along until he can tear him to pieces!" When the first instance ended, the players who had survived by sheer luck were battered and utterly miserable. But Yun An, who'd coasted to victory under a ghost's protection, was completely unharmed. His watery eyes shone with a captivating light. In a scene of carnage like a living hell, he was a rose in a hothouse, with even his fingertips carrying a faint fragrance. Everyone fell silent. Later, others tried to imitate Yun An, only to be toyed with and torn apart by the ghosts. Gradually, Yun An's name grew more famous in the game. Veteran players called him the "Human World's Gu King," because NPCs kept showing up to let him coast to victory. New players envied him: Every NPC in every instance falls for him. Whichever instance he enters, his harem expands to match! Oblivious to all this, Yun An hugged Hua Jiang around the waist and affectionately rubbed against him. Life was so wonderful when his contracted ghost gong carried him to victory! My friend's ongoing novel, Days as an NPC in a Fan Favorite's Escape Game Blurb: An SSS-rank instance of an escape game was finally cleared, but the System discovered that an NPC inside had developed self-awareness. According to the rules, the System descended into the instance to eliminate the bug. The NPC about to be eliminated had a beautiful, captivating face like a camellia. The System, which hadn't experienced a change of heart in thousands of years, softened after one tearful glance from afar. To keep this one-of-a-kind beauty in the human world, the System made a contract with him, turning him into a special NPC who would be randomly sent to another instance after each one ended to continue his work. Out of selfishness and a touch of mischief, the System made him the game's only unromanceable NPC. How could the moon in the heavens be allowed to belong to anyone? Yun Nian didn't want to die, so he agreed to Mr. System's terms and began his career as an NPC. Yet in his very first instance, he became a widow whose husband had died right after their wedding, and had to be stepmother to two stepsons who were obviously hostile to him. He thought being someone's stepmother, older brother, uncle, or wife was already the limit. He had no idea this game had plenty more surprises in store. *Multiple fragments of the same person, jealous-of-himself mad-dog gong X dangerously beautiful fan-favorite shou Theme: No winter lasts forever, and no spring fails to come.
