What's Wrong with Being a Little Scheming?

I've run out of inspiration, so I'm taking a break for now. Sorry. After returning to the country, Ruan Cha discovered that his family had acquired a stepmother and a stepbrother. His stepmother kept hinting that he was the outsider in the family. His stepbrother took over his closet and his room, then looked at him innocently and said: "You don't mind, right, Big Brother?" His father had become a stepfather too, always saying, "What's the big deal about giving your little brother some space?" Ruan Cha: Heh :) On his stepbrother's eighteenth birthday, the family hosted the city's elite. Halfway through the party, Ruan Cha saw a man arrive, surrounded by admirers. His usually arrogant stepbrother blushed as he spoke to him, as meek as a quail. The man responded now and then, his expression aloof. That's when Ruan Cha learned the man's name: Bo Songxue. His stepbrother flaunted him. "He's my future fiance." Ruan Cha smiled faintly. "Is that so?" A few months later, Ruan Cha came home with a man. "Let me introduce you to my fiance." The three family members all looked as if they'd swallowed something bitter. His stepbrother couldn't stand it and went to confront him. "Are you using him to get back at me?" Ruan Cha said lazily, "Yeah. So what?" When he looked up, he saw Bo Songxue standing not far away, his features stern in the dim light. His stepbrother wore an expression that said he couldn't wait to see what happened, but Ruan Cha didn't care. He walked over and complained, "What took you so long?" Bo Songxue lowered his head and carefully tied Ruan Cha's scarf before replying, "You said you wanted Chen Ji's pastries, so I went to get them." Stepbrother: ??? Bo Songxue knew that Ruan Cha liked him. He edged closer carefully, blushing before he could even speak. When those watery eyes looked at him, he found them especially adorable. He kept his feelings hidden, waiting for Ruan Cha to fall deeper and deeper. Until one day, he realized that he was the prey. The full title of this novel is #SoWhatIfI'mA LittleSchemingYouStillLikeMeAnyway# Coming soon: "What's Wrong with Being the Villainous Male Supporting Character?" Qiao Yu had been spoiled since childhood and was arrogant and willful. Then one day, he learned that he was actually the villainous male supporting character in a danmei novel. He was the fake young master, switched at birth into a wealthy family, while the real young master and protagonist bottom was about to be brought home. The obedient and sweet real young master, Wen Yuli, quickly won everyone's affection, including that of Qiao Yu's intended fiance, the protagonist top. Meanwhile, because of his nasty personality, Qiao Yu would make all kinds of idiotic moves to compete for the protagonist top. Everyone would despise him, and he would meet a tragic end. Qiao Yu wanted to defy fate, but discovered that the main plot of the book could not be changed. So he decided to do whatever he pleased. If he was going to be cannon fodder sooner or later, why bother being a good person? So... When his adoptive parents bought clothes for Wen Yuli, Qiao Yu complained, "I want something more expensive." When the protagonist top gave him a birthday present, Qiao Yu tossed it aside. "It's hideous." When someone spilled a drink during dinner, Qiao Yu frowned in annoyance, about to throw a tantrum. But before he could say a word, Wen Yuli took his hand with practiced ease and carefully wiped between each finger with a handkerchief, his movements so gentle as if he were handling a precious porcelain treasure. A few months later, the school held a masquerade ball. The protagonist top was going to fall in love with Wen Yuli at first sight there, marking the start of Qiao Yu's cannon-fodder life. At the ball, Qiao Yu deliberately picked a fight, accusing the protagonist top of looking at Wen Yuli too much. But the protagonist top just smiled adoringly. "Fine. From now on, I'll only look at you." Qiao Yu: "?" Before he could recover, someone else in a mask pulled Qiao Yu into a corner. Wen Yuli was no longer his usual gentle self. His forceful actions left no room for refusal. The young man took off his mask, his eyes cold and dark. "Didn't you say my eyes were beautiful?" "Tired of them already?"
