The Villainous Cannon Fodder Top Just Wants to Be a Slacker

[The new novel next door, What Should I Do After the Cannon Fodder Bottom Becomes Everyone's Favorite?, is now live! Please show it lots of support!] Yu Xian woke up to find himself transmigrated into a novel where everyone loved the protagonist, as the villainous cannon-fodder top. He had arrived just as the original character, driven from love to hatred, imprisoned the protagonist bottom and was about to force himself on him. The protagonist bottom had one hand cuffed to the headboard, his whole body flushed red as he glared at Yu Xian with hatred. Yu Xian: ... He silently got up, freed the protagonist bottom, then lay down on the bed himself. Yu Xian: How about... you take the lead? After being reborn, top-tier star Shen Mang realized that he was the beloved bottom in a melodramatic danmei novel. In his previous life, the CEO, the movie star, the investor, and countless other outstanding men had fought each other to the death over him. Every villain who bullied him met a miserable end, and whatever he wanted was delivered right to his hands. But he found it all incredibly boring. Until a minor villain who was supposed to die within three chapters suddenly veered off-script and lay down beneath him of his own accord. Watching the man's eager, compliant expression, Shen Mang smiled faintly, his eyes and brows strikingly beautiful. Interesting. After that night, Yu Xian thought he and Shen Mang would never cross paths again. He continued to coast through life as a university lecturer, until a dating reality show suddenly came to film at his school. Yu Xian walked past Shen Mang, who was surrounded by admirers, without so much as a change in expression. But as soon as he reached the corner, a pair of arms pulled him firmly into an embrace. The man smiled, his tone casual: "Teacher Yu, don't you recognize me?" "You weren't like this when you were crying and begging me that night." P.S. In his previous life, Shen Mang was in a chaste novel. He was never actually a bottom! Content warning: This novel has an old-school, melodramatic setup. The top is no saint, and the bottom is imperfect. Please don't read if that bothers you. Coming next: What Should I Do After the Cannon Fodder Bottom Becomes Everyone's Favorite? Lu Yao transmigrates into a melodramatic straight romance as the cannon-fodder bottom who worships the male lead. His daily routine is to cling to the male lead until he develops a deep-seated fear of gay men. In the end, Lu Yao grows jealous and frames the protagonist bottom, then dies miserably in a car accident. Lu Yao, who grew up surrounded by love and luxury: ? Am I sick? Why would I be anyone's lapdog? Lu Yao looks at the love letter in his hand, then at the male lead, Gu Bo, standing on the basketball court with an impatient expression, and the group of friends beside him waiting for a show. Lu Yao decisively turns in another direction and hands the letter to the male lead's roommate, T University's quiet, poor, cool-headed campus heartthrob. The friends and the male lead: ??? Lin Yuanzhi frowns and takes the letter. He opens it, and the first line has his roommate's name on it. Lin Yuanzhi: ... Without a word, he puts the letter in his pocket. "I accept." Lu Yao: ? Help! After Lu Yao and Lin Yuanzhi get together, everyone at T University thinks Lin Yuanzhi won't be able to put up with this pampered, arrogant young master for long. Gu Bo thinks so too, until one day he returns to the dorm early and pushes open the door. The young master's eyes are red, a sliver of his slender waist showing beneath his oversized T-shirt. His usually aloof roommate has him pinned against the headboard, holding his delicate ankle. His roommate's gaze is dark as he coaxes him softly. "Yao Yao, let me kiss you one more time, okay?" Lu Yao's eyes fill with tears, his expression pitiful. "Just once. No more kissing after that." Gu Bo: ... That little drama queen has a pretty nice waist. Later: [Help, why are our campus heartthrob and department heartthrob fighting over that little drama queen?] Theme: No matter what adversity you face, keep an optimistic and positive attitude.
