Shi Yuan has a pretty face but nothing in his head. Sweet and a little foolish, he believes whatever people tell him.
One night, he dreams of the future and discovers that he is the protagonist receiving in a stand-in romance novel set in the entertainment industry. In the book, the scumbag gong keeps him as a lover, then drags him through three hundred chapters of torturous romance before gouging out his eyes and taking his kidneys for his one true love.
Shi Yuan looks at the contract in front of him, touches his eyes, then his kidneys, and trembles with fear.
Help! My eyes are so pretty, don't gouge them out!
To keep his eyes and kidneys safe, he decides to stay away from the scumbag gong, get on good terms with his one true love, and bring the two of them together.
When his one true love is bullied, Shi Yuan rushes to his defense like a mother hen protecting her chick.
When his one true love reads a script, Shi Yuan hurries over to serve him tea and massage his back.
When his one true love can't sleep, Shi Yuan immediately offers to keep him company in bed... Wait, he can't do that! But the scumbag gong isn't here, so Shi Yuan will just have to take his place!
After waking up, his one true love flips through the romance movies Shi Yuan has brought him and asks whether Shi Yuan dislikes him getting close to other people.
Shi Yuan nods furiously. "Y-you shouldn't get too close to anyone else."
You and the scumbag gong are in love, so you should be together.
His one true love pinches the soft flesh on Shi Yuan's cheek, the corner of his mouth lifting. "All right, but you have to behave."
Getting rid of his one true love's rotten admirers so easily is a fantastic deal.
Shi Yuan happily sits in his one true love's lap, grinning from ear to ear.
After spending some time together, Shi Yuan and his one true love become closer than close. Just as Shi Yuan is playing the perfect wingman right in front of him every day, he suddenly dreams of what happens later in the original story.
The stand-in romance was a lie. His one true love came back from the world of infinite horror, killed the original scumbag gong, and locked Shi Yuan away in a psychiatric hospital.
Shi Yuan is clinging to his one true love, all soft and cuddly, saying, "I love you more than anyone in the world," when his hand suddenly shakes. He runs to the scumbag gong's house that very night and hides there.
Help! He doesn't want to go to a psychiatric hospital!
With death waiting either way, Shi Yuan decides he can live without his kidneys and eyes.
A month after leaving his one true love, Shi Yuan is crying as someone pins him against a wall. The person's hand gently strokes the back of his neck, inch by inch, as he asks with a smile, "Are you going to run again, A Yuan?"
Coming soon, please add to your reading list!
How to Raise a Parasitic Vine
Jiang Tu is a parasitic vine with nothing but good looks. After accidentally transmigrating to the interstellar era, he finds a book of prophecies. It says that the frail young man who looks up at him from a filthy alley will one day become a powerful marshal.
A parasitic vine's instinct is to choose the strong, so Jiang Tu saves the boy. He comforts him, heals him, and becomes his best friend.
Everyone knows that Jiang Tu, Marshal Lu Zhiqiao's childhood friend, is the one and only person he cannot bear to see harmed.
Not long afterward, the book of prophecies updates. The marshal is now someone else.
After thinking it over, Jiang Tu abandons Lu Zhiqiao too.
Just as the spaceship is about to leave the port, the alliance's most elite troops stop him. The man, who hasn't slept in three days, has tearful eyes. He clutches the hem of Jiang Tu's clothes, his fingers twitching uncontrollably. "...Why? I can change. I can change everything."
Jiang Tu answers honestly, "But you're almost useless to me now."
Lu Zhiqiao's eyelashes tremble.
His hand loosens its grip on Jiang Tu's.
The book of prophecies never updates again. When Lu Zhiqiao loses his marshal's position, just as the book foretold, Jiang Tu successfully infiltrates the imperial emperor's court and becomes an insignificant adviser.
Word spreads that a rebellion has broken out in the alliance. Its new leader is ruthless, cold-blooded, and ambitious. Having barely secured his position, he turns his sights on the empire.
On the day the front lines collapse completely, Jiang Tu leads the women of the household through a secret passage beneath the palace.
The dark passage seems to stretch on without end, until at last they see the light again.
The once-glorious marshal stands coldly above them. The blazing sunlight makes his expression seem especially dark and gloomy, but the moment his eyes meet Jiang Tu's, his expression changes. He smiles innocently.
Just like in the past, he waits for Jiang Tu in the distance and waves to him affectionately.
"Xiao Tu, come here."
Jiang Tu opens the book and sees that Lu Zhiqiao has killed the alliance marshal and the imperial emperor, becoming the sole ruler of the new world.

Can You Please Kiss Me?
After a whole string of bad luck, from tripping over nothing while walking to banging his head in his sleep and choking on his own spit while listening to a joke, Nan Xingzhi finds a fortune-teller outside a temple and asks him to tell his fortune.
The fortune-teller says he is doomed to be a solitary star and will have bad luck in August. To ward it off, he must either kiss someone passionately every day or buy an amethyst from him.
Eight hundred each, same price for all ages.
Nan Xingzhi feels his empty wallet and decides to find someone to kiss.
Kissing a girl would be impolite, but kissing a boy would be too gay. After weighing his options, Nan Xingzhi settles on his childhood friend, Chi Jian.
Chi Jian is handsome and sharp-tongued, and he likes neither men nor women. He's been known since childhood as an unshakably straight guy destined to be single for life. You could get out of bed with him and nobody would suspect a thing, so he seems perfect for a kiss.
Nan Xingzhi approaches Chi Jian. "There's something really important I need to ask you."
Chi Jian: "What, you can't stand global warming, so you want to blow up the Earth?"
Nan Xingzhi: "...What?"
Nan Xingzhi: "I want you to kiss me once every day."
Chi Jian: "..."
Chi Jian: "…"
Three months later.
Nan Xingzhi is pinned against a wall by Chi Jian, his lips kissed so swollen he can barely speak, when he happens to see a news report about the fortune-teller getting caught for fraud and superstition.
Nan Xingzhi: "…"
Chi Jian: "You were distracted while we were kissing. We have to do it again."
