[Complete and going VIP from Chapter 17 on the 29th]

After being bitten to death by the Zombie King, apocalypse veteran Li Yao opened her eyes to find herself dangling precariously from a rooftop.

That's when the System told her that the world she'd lived in was actually a novel about a transmigrator heroine who stole the original heroine's place and lived the high life.

And she was the original heroine, forced into the role of a cannon-fodder character by the transmigrator.

Unable to accept that the transmigrator had stolen her protagonist's aura, she had constantly antagonized the new heroine. As a result, she became a cannon-fodder supporting character, bullied at school and abandoned by her fiance. In the end, she fell from the rooftop, became paralyzed from the neck down, and died in despair.

The very rooftop she's hanging from right now!

As someone who'd fought her way through the apocalypse for over a decade, Li Yao wasn't worried about dangling from a rooftop. How hard could revenge be?

The boss turned from a poor student into a top scholar, reclaimed the inheritance her parents left her, and kicked her scumbag ex-fiance to the curb. If someone bullied her, she'd beat them up. If they still didn't learn, she'd beat them up again!

But after her studies and career took off, her scumbag ex-fiance came crawling back, desperate to please her. And the transmigrator heroine spent all day begging her to hand over Qin Xiao, the male supporting character who'd just woken from a vegetative state?

Even the System started crying as the plot went further and further off track. Boss, stop focusing only on your career! This is a romance face-slapping novel, not a no-romance story!

The eldest young master of the Qin family, who was supposed to die young, suddenly woke from his vegetative state, but there was a childish personality living inside him.

The little one followed the boss around all day, asking for cuddles. Whenever Qin Xiao's usual personality returned, he would find Li Yao treating him with utter disrespect. She'd poke him on the forehead or casually slam him against a wall, then sternly warn him to stop clinging to her.

Then one day, he woke up in the boss's bed.

The usually proud and untouchable Qin Xiao was finally overcome with shame and anger. He was about to tell her to show him some respect when the graceful young woman leaned down, expertly picked him up, and looked at him with open disdain. “You again? You're so clingy, Zombie King. This time, do you want to bite my neck or my ear?”

Qin Xiao suddenly blushed and fiddled with his fingers. “Can I kiss your cheek?”

Reading Guide:

1. [Beautiful, badass boss heroine x cool, adorable male lead with split personalities]

2. Sweet romance, face-slapping, career-building, and the male lead getting bullied on the regular.

3. The heroine has a tiny golden finger. There is no apocalypse content.

Blurb for Protect Our Poor Male Second Lead:

Xia Lan owned a media company and had money, looks, and connections. Only after dying suddenly did she discover she was the Nth-ranked female character in an old-fashioned tragic romance novel. Her one flaw was that she died young.

The System gave her a survival mission: protect a tragic supporting character named Lin Yufeng in exchange for more time to live.

From then on, she and Lin Yufeng were forcibly bound together.

Lin Yufeng was the devoted male second lead who'd grown up with the heroine. He was a small-time gaming streamer signed to Xia Lan's company.

Whenever the heroine was left utterly devastated by the overbearing male lead, she would go to Lin Yufeng to cry and seek comfort. As a result, the male lead bore a grudge against him, maliciously hounding him and fabricating scandals until everyone turned against him. In the end, someone took his life in a filthy alley.

The stern-looking young man streamed games as usual. He played a mid-lane mage and cast a crowd-control skill, while explaining the strategy to his fans in a woman's voice.

As expected, countless comments saying “Look at me, wifey!” flooded the screen.

At the same time, a banner flashed gold: [Wind Beneath the Mountain sent a “Galaxy.”]

From then on, Lin Yufeng had a top spender.

Later, Lin Yufeng got a wealthy landlord.

Later still, he found himself in the grip of his own boss.

At that banquet, he finally realized that the top spender, wealthy landlord, and his boss were all the same person. Suspecting she had ulterior motives, he sat stiffly beside her all evening, waiting for her to make him an offer he couldn't refuse after the banquet.

But after she took him home, she asked him, “Want to try getting married young with me?”

Lin Yufeng: ???

1. Short-lived, wealthy female boss and top spender x adorable, pitiable male lead with a fake female voice

2. The male lead never has romantic feelings for the original heroine.

3. Gender-bender romance, female top and male bottom, no role reversal.

Premise: Be a sunny, positive person!
