The Poor Little Darling Is at Wit's End in a Love Triangle

Xue Yu is sweet-faced and innocent, with a beautiful face. Though a little slow and rather dim, he’s a natural at seducing men. One day, a System drags him into various worlds and orders him to play a wicked little cannon-fodder character, bully the protagonists, and earn enough points to go home. Xue Yu is confident he’ll make a great villain, but every time he enters a world, he comes back in tears. - World One: Xue Yu is a roommate sharing an apartment building with the protagonist couple. Every day, he tries all sorts of ways to bully the protagonists, deliberately hugging the protagonist shou to make the gong jealous. Later, he realizes there’s something strange about the two of them and immediately makes a run for it, only to be caught and dragged back before long. The protagonist shou closes in step by step. “Are you really going to keep being so disobedient?” Xue Yu backs away in alarm, only to bump into another man’s chest… World Two: Xue Yu is a merfolk plaything kept by a foolish emperor, confined to a pond in the back courtyard. Every day after court, the protagonist shou draws him into his arms, toys with his tail, and chuckles, “You owe me this.” The court’s grand chancellor is praised by everyone as a loyal, incorruptible official. Yet whenever the emperor leaves, he secretly carries Xue Yu, flushed and weak in the water, back to his own residence. World Three: Xue Yu is a high school boy with intermittent amnesia, forgetting things every few days. Men are always showing up at his door, claiming Xue Yu is their little boyfriend. They’re all lying to him, but Xue Yu is dim and believes whatever anyone tells him. Several men take turns bullying him, until in the end he can’t even tell who his boyfriend is. After completing yet another world, Xue Yu finally can’t take it anymore. His eyes ringed red, he asks the System in a trembling voice, “Wasn’t I supposed to be the wicked cannon fodder? Why am I always the one getting bullied?” 1. A bad-tempered, condescending straight gong who eventually becomes a lovesick puppy x a beautiful shou who’s an expert at training dogs 2. The gong is an emotionless, fragmented being; everyone who gets intimate with the shou is the gong 3. The shou is a good-for-nothing little dimwit, completely unaware he’s irresistible to everyone. His ultimate weapon is his face. There’s a battle royale every day, and the men he hooks will only keep multiplying 4. Before the gong’s fragments merge, the shou is just a hard-working employee following the plot. The romance only begins after the gong merges Coming Soon The Bookworm Living in the Top Alpha’s Villa On the day Ying Chiran first arrived in the big city, he had only three hundred yuan in his pocket. He was a dirt-poor country bumpkin. But he never felt inferior, always believing that education could change one’s fate and that even a scraggly chicken could become a golden phoenix. By chance, he rescued an alpha who was drowning. His textbook-perfect first aid earned him a job offer from the medical department of a military academy. His duties were to assist the doctors and occasionally bandage the injuries of cadets hurt during training. A chance for a promotion soon came along: the academy’s few top-tier alphas had returned to campus. Ying Chiran was recommended for a position as private doctor in the exclusive detached villa where the young masters lived. The young masters were haughty and had terrible tempers, but they were loaded. If he put in the effort to get on their good side, surely he’d have no trouble making it big in the future? Unfortunately, Ying Chiran was a bookworm who believed studying was more important than life itself. There was no way he’d know how to take advantage of this windfall. The night his friend came to visit, Ying Chiran was folding clothes for one of the young masters. His friend was so angry smoke seemed to rise from his head. “You came here to work, not to be their slave!” Ying Chiran hugged the rare, out-of-print exam workbook he’d just gotten and said nothing. Later, the two went out to eat. They’d barely taken a couple bites when Ying Chiran’s phone started chiming. His friend glanced over and happened to see an obscene message pop up: “You naughty wife, I miss you. The bed you sat on yesterday still smells so tempting. I can’t bring myself to wash it.” His friend: ???!?! Facing his friend’s battle-ready expression, Ying Chiran’s eyes held a hint of longing as he explained amiably, “It’s just a form of address. Once he’s had his fill of calling me that, he’ll let me sit in on Professor Chen’s lecture for free.” His friend: …That’s clearly not just a form of address, is it? But none of that was the main event. The main event came on a rainy night, when his friend passed by the military district office and saw Ying Chiran being held in the arms of one of the young masters. The hem of his clothes bulged conspicuously below. Bulged. Conspicuously. His friend exploded. “Are you an idiot? His hand is inside your clothes and you’re not even fighting back? He’s committing a crime!” Ying Chiran tilted his head. “But he said he could get me the top student’s physics revision notes.” His expression seemed to say, But they’re the top student’s notes! His friend: “You’re a lost cause!” Qin Liao is a reporter for Phiros Television, and a treasured son from the same county as Ying Chiran. They grew up together and were close, and their parents had even arranged an engagement for them when they were children. One day, Qin Liao was assigned to interview the residents of the detached villa. At the thought of seeing his crush again, he was so excited he hardly knew what to do. But the moment he stepped inside, his smile froze. The camera shook as he filmed the alphas lounging around the villa. One was taking off his clothes, another had his legs crossed while looking at his phone, and someone else was drinking water… Every last one of them wore an unbelievably sour expression. Qin Liao stiffly carried the camera down the hallway. He looked up and saw a tall, muscular figure who seemed to be enjoying a pleasure so intense his soul might leave his body. Even his Achilles tendons were taut with effort. His hands were rubbing hard against someone’s back, making the pair of long legs hooked around his waist tremble. The alpha shielded the person so completely that Qin Liao had to look very carefully to catch a glimpse of a beautiful, distinctive face peeking over his shoulder. One look was enough to plunge Qin Liao into an icy abyss. After a long while, Ying Chiran slid limply out of the man’s arms. His face was crimson, and he looked painfully short of breath. But when he touched the out-of-print workbook in his hands, the corners of his mouth lifted again. He patted the dust off the cover and had just stood up when he spotted Qin Liao. He blinked in confusion. “Hm? What are you doing here?” - If you want to seduce a bookworm, designer labels, custom-made clothes, cars, and watches won’t work. But just hold out a workbook that’s supposedly no longer in print and beckon, and he’ll come right to you. Message: Even when plunged into darkness, never lose the resilience to fight against fate.
