An Unqualified Stand-In

Lin Yunqing reads a novel written by a schoolmate, with himself as its inspiration.

And then...

He transmigrates into it.

Lin Yunqing: Not surprised. Not surprised at all.

If only this novel weren't dedicated to making him look bad.

Destitute, he uses his good looks to land a job as a stand-in lover for the domineering CEO Wen Zhuo, with no physical intimacy involved.

He's both a stand-in for the CEO's love life and his personal assistant. Every day, he diligently does the laundry, cooks, and makes sure the CEO eats, while also tending to the CEO's mental health.

He's practically the model employee among assistants and the perfect example among stand-ins.

One paycheck, two jobs. What a bad deal.

And after starting the job, he finally learns that being a stand-in may look glamorous and pay well, but only the person doing it knows what it's really like.

How do you play an elegant white-moonlight stand-in in front of a childish, sharp-tongued domineering CEO?

Quit. Problem solved.

At last, one day, the real white moonlight returns. Lin Yunqing has saved enough money by then. The CEO pays pretty well, after all. He only needs to stick it out for a few more months.

Lin Yunqing figures it's about time to bow out, so he obediently hands the CEO his resignation letter.

CEO Wen, who was about to promote his little stand-in to the position of actual wife: ???

[Highlights]

1. There is no white moonlight. The pursuer isn't a scumbag, and the pursued isn't a stand-in.

2. This is just a simple, sweet little story. If that's not your thing, please don't read.

"Raising Hell in the Love Triangle"

Xia Youqing transmigrates into a world where plant resources are scarce.

But he's a descendant of the Wood God, so a shortage of plants? Not a problem.

Xia Youqing: This clichéd setup and coincidence... Did I transmigrate into a book? Am I the protagonist?!

But he soon discovers that he's a useless nobody despised by the whole empire, including his fiance, General Ling Xun.

Meanwhile, his talented younger cousin wins over the whole empire with his cooking. His livestream tipping leaderboard is filled with big names from every corner of the world, including Ling Xun.

Xia Youqing: So this is one of those novels where readers pick their favorite love interest, and I'm a nasty supporting character. How exciting.

Natural ingredients are expensive. The big names all try to win his younger cousin's favor by giving him ingredients they've bought at exorbitant prices.

Using his talent, Xia Youqing quickly becomes a supplier of premium ingredients.

He sorts the ingredients into four equal batches based on his cousin's tipping leaderboard and sells them to four big shots, including Ling Xun.

Xia Youqing, keeping his contribution under wraps: It wouldn't be a love-triangle brawl if no one fought over anyone.

He gives the leftover misshapen produce to Ling Xun for free, to make up for his affection rating, which has dropped below zero.

One day, four of the empire's big shots each buy a bag of fresh, juicy tomatoes from a mysterious seller.

His younger cousin looks at the three bags of tomatoes on the table and frowns worriedly. It was supposed to be his turn to prepare ingredients for General Ling Xun today, but his tomatoes haven't arrived.

Ling Xun thinks Xia Youqing has been behaving well lately and even gave him a bag of precious apples, so he decides to treat him a little better.

He takes the tomatoes he bought at a high price to Xia Youqing's home.

As soon as he walks in, he sees Xia Youqing shouting at a familiar livestream: "Come on, hurry up! Fight! This is so exciting! Holy crap, where's Ling Xun? Why isn't he here today?! I bought shares in the general! Aah!"
