Cheng Shuo accidentally enters an infinite escape game and does his best to clear its levels, only to discover that the game he is playing seems a little different from everyone else's.

The Haunted Painting

In a dim room, the moody owner of a villa pulls the young man close by the waist and says in a low, dangerous voice, "Sleep with me."

Cheng Shuo tries to explain, "I'm not that kind of person."

"Just sleep."

Cheng Shuo struggles desperately. The next moment, he hears even breathing beside his ear.

Cheng Shuo, who thought they meant "sleep" for real: "."

Hourglass in Peril

Cheng Shuo struggles out of a horde of zombies. Just as he catches his breath, someone drags him into a classroom to take shelter from the zombie wave.

The top student, who never gets along with him, hands him a bandage and reveals the wound on his neck. "Could you put this on for me?"

After Cheng Shuo carefully finishes, the top student lowers his head and asks, "I'm so scared. Could you kiss me three times to comfort me?"

Cheng Shuo: "?"

Top student: "Then twice."

Cheng Shuo: "Sorry, I'm straight."

The top student's eyes turn red. "Just once."

Cheng Shuo: "..."

"Mwah."

Next book, You Are the Cat-Neutering Villain Role-Player You Booked, right? Blurb:

Unable to find a job, Cheng Yu takes up an unusual line of work on a secondhand marketplace: playing the villain who takes cats to be neutered.

He has to snatch his client's cat and take it to get neutered, then let its owner rescue it and bring it home. That way, the cat will love its owner like crazy.

On his first day on the job, Cheng Yu smiles as he rings the doorbell.

"Hello, are you the cat-neutering villain role-player you booked?"

The door opens, and Cheng Yu freezes.

His most famous classmate from high school doesn't recognize him, only stepping aside to show him the cat lazily sprawled on the floor.

"Won't I blow my cover?"

Cheng Yu puts on his mask. "Probably not."

The role-play begins. Cheng Yu snatches the cat away menacingly and rushes it to the pet hospital.

Strangely, the cat behaves perfectly the whole time, offering no resistance and even acting sweet.

The first job ends successfully.

A week later, his high school classmate sends him a video, looking troubled.

"Hi, didn't you say the cat would cling to me like crazy after I rescued it?"

"I think my cat hates me now. T.T Could you come over and take a look?"

In the video, the cat angrily paws at his former classmate. His sturdy arms are covered in bright red scratches.

Cheng Yu hurries over.

The cat, which had been furious with its owner, calms down when it sees him, sits obediently on the floor, and lets out a soft little "meow."

His former classmate looks conflicted. "...Could I hire you for two months of aftercare, until my cat likes me again?"

Not sure what went wrong, Cheng Yu awkwardly says it's the least he can do.

He keeps working to mend the relationship between the person and the cat.

By the time the aftercare ends, the cat can't bear to be without Cheng Yu, and neither can its owner.

A person and a cat crouch by the door, staring pitifully at Cheng Yu.

The cat acts cute and begs for attention. Its owner holds the cat and does the same. "Could you stay? Meimeng says he wants you to be his daddy."

"My partner."

Cheng Yu: "...Huh?"

Cheng Yu: "O-okay, I guess."
