I'm a Background Character in the Cultivation World [Book Transmigration]

Ji Mingruo transmigrated into a spoiled young master who died before ever appearing in the story, existing only in the mouth of the protagonist bottom as a cannon-fodder character.

The System watched Ji Mingruo, who had clearly been given a Heavenly Spiritual Root but somehow ended up with an extra fire spiritual root, and tiptoed around without daring to speak.

"A rookie System?" Ji Mingruo asked, raising an eyebrow despite his serious injuries.

"Y-yes, but if I save up enough energy, I can remake you, Host! A Heavenly Spiritual Root, I promise!" the System cried out.

There was an unmistakable note of guilt in that promise.

Ji Mingruo could only rub his brow. "Tell me the plot first."

The System froze. "Host, you don't know the plot?"

Ji Mingruo: "?"

Later, the System realized it had bound itself to the wrong person: "QAQ"

This book will enter the paid section on February 8. Thanks so much, everyone. I'm truly grateful.

Coming soon: The Socially Anxious Mermaid Goes Viral After Becoming the Contrast Character on a Dating Show

The dating show is full of romantic rivalries. As the contrast character, Lan Gu only has to highlight the male lead bottom's flower-like beauty and angelic singing voice.

Then, after getting face-slapped by the male lead bottom and his destined top a few times, he can bow out gracefully, leave the System, and live freely.

But unfortunately, not only did the System bind the wrong person (fish), it also secretly spent all its energy on idol photocards.

After transmigrating, Lan Gu's species is about as far from his assigned character as it could possibly be.

With his unbelievably good looks and the mermaid talents listed in his skill menu, is he really supposed to follow the plot?

The System knows that's wishful thinking.

But Lan Gu, who has spent two years hiding in the human world, quietly brings out his makeup skills and voice-acting tricks.

System: !!

For a moment, it feels like there's still hope of saving the situation.

So Lan Gu keeps to himself and stays indoors. After going two months without speaking to anyone in real life, he's made all the preparations and sets out to play the male supporting character and contrast character.

But as it watches the protagonist top constantly stay by Lan Gu's side, the System begins to have doubts.

Then, when the protagonist top chooses Lan Gu again, the System suddenly realizes, "Host, the plot seems to be going wrong...!"

Once he notices things going off track, Lan Gu starts sneaking around to avoid him. But the villa is only so big, and a certain award-winning actor who's set to inherit the family business is an excellent cook and a master at vying for affection.

In the end, Lan Gu still falls to the irresistible aroma of dried fish.

Later, when the actor's background is revealed, the audience sees Lan Gu acting completely differently before and after rejecting a confession, and decides he's the absolute embodiment of a green tea schemer!

Lu Yunqi must have something wrong with his brain to fall for a D-list plastic-surgery face with no common sense.

But one day, Lan Gu, who went from being adorable to being called a green tea schemer, hurts his throat after eating the extra-spicy dried fish brought by a new guest on the dating show.

That night, still dazed, he takes off his mask in the hospital emergency room.

His face, bare of makeup and clearly visible, appears on the camera following the show...

Audience: "!!!"

Production crew: "?!"

Turns out I'm the clown!
