The Bodyguard Wants a Raise Today Too [Infinite]

- High-IQ, psychologically twisted beauty of a bottom x superhumanly strong, crazy punk of a top - 1. Yu Ran is an acting student at a film academy. One day, he receives a strange audition invitation and gets dragged into an endless horror scenario with a handsome bodyguard he found at the job market, where the motto is “eighty a day, I'll do anything if you pay.” The bodyguard is not only easy on the eyes and cheap, but also incredibly fit and ridiculously strong, able to knock out a ghost NPC with every punch. And so the world of horror scenarios welcomes two ruthless men who strike fear into every ghost. One is aloof and haughty, with a dark and twisted mind. His favorite place to ponder life is inside a coffin. The other is ferocious and merciless, and excels at beating vengeful ghosts until they cry. #That day, the ghosts finally remembered the fear of being ruled by villains# 2. Later, whether in a haunted house with a red-clad ghost or a gloomy old castle, Yu Ran shows off a capitalist's true colors to the fullest. The cheap bodyguard, Yan Shiche, has to wear many hats. He has to act as bait and a shield, pretend to be Yu Ran's boyfriend, and chase off his love rivals. He crushes the ghosts' pale bones beneath his feet and shares a cigarette with Yu Ran under the moonlight, where ghostly energy swirls around them. “Boss, can we talk about something?” Yan Shiche stands nose to nose with him, smoke swirling around his dark eyes. “What?” “Give me a raise. I can't afford to eat.” [Reader's guide] ☆ A power couple: the bottom solves puzzles with his brains, while the top beats up ghosts with his fists. ☆ The bottom is not a perfect person. He's unempathetic, arrogant, cold, and self-serving, neither kind nor noble. If you're a moral paragon, please stop here. ☆ At first, the bottom treats the top as a tool and won't hesitate to use him and shift the blame. Read with caution if this bothers you. ☆ The author has a goldfish brain. Feel free to point out any plot holes, and let me slowly try to explain them (lying flat). ★ Upcoming: Villain Obsession Syndrome [Infinite]. Blurb: Yu Lingge is a bestselling horror-comic author. Night after night, he is plagued by nightmares. The bizarre, uncanny scenes he draws are faithful records of his dreams. At first, his dreams contain only thick darkness. Later, deformed ghosts, writhing shadows, and a group of people who call themselves players appear. At first, Yu Lingge treats them as inspiration for his work, until the police accuse him of murder. The victims in his latest comic bear an uncanny resemblance to people whose unnatural deaths have yet to be made public. The moment he glimpses a crack in the universe, Yu Lingge's world descends into chaos. A voice murmurs in his ear, soft and cold, like a sticky swamp [Gifted one with keen senses, welcome to invade... the dreams of God] · In the nightmares Yu Lingge can't escape, a pair of strange, shadowy eyes always peer out from the dream into the waking world, haunting him for ten years. After entering the Infinite world, Yu Lingge becomes intensely interested in NPCs with those eyes, and greets them with the most sincere hostility. Rumors spread among the players that a psychopath is obsessed with collecting villains in each scenario, carrying around a sketchbook full of villain NPC portraits and identification numbers. After being targeted several times, one villain regular finally disguises himself as a player and points to a stack of portraits of himself. “Do you hate him that much?” “Quite the opposite,” Yu Lingge replies politely. “What I feel for it is more like first love.” “?” “When all your teenage dreams are taken over by something this disgusting, you'll understand that Stockholm syndrome is a balm for the soul.” “Sounds like you want to propose to him.” “No,” Yu Lingge corrects him again. “Have you ever heard the saying? The only good ex is a dead ex.” “...” Yu Lingge smiles faintly. “So I'm here to send it to its grave.” Theme: Defy fate and find a new life
