Also known as The Chuunibyou CEO I Made Fun Of Turns Out to Be a Real Overbearing CEO and The Big Shot I Dumped Has Always Loved Me 1. Xu Lin is an ordinary 996 office worker and a hardcore gamer. He once had a relationship. His boyfriend, Cao Yihui, was tall and long-legged, got great grades, and was exceptionally handsome. Eventually, they broke up. Xu Lin was the one who called it off. What good were a handsome face and a sharp mind? He was volatile and arrogant, always wallowing in jealousy. He'd get jealous and angry at the drop of a hat. He was the whole chuunibyou package, with the self-important personality of an overbearing CEO. Who could put up with that? 2. Seven years later, Xu Lin was walking home at night when he ran into a supernatural incident and learned about the [Special Affairs Bureau], an agency that handled supernatural cases. Bureau employee: “Our director is away on a business trip, but he called specifically to tell us to look after you.” Xu Lin: ? Had someone mistaken him for the director's brother-in-law? 3. Grateful for the director's concern, Xu Lin went to the airport to pick him up on the day he returned from his trip. Meeting the big boss for the first time, Xu Lin greeted him with a broad, socially appropriate smile. “Hello, Director...” The moment he saw that familiar, icy face, Xu Lin's smile froze. The chuunibyou CEO he'd once made fun of was actually a genuine overbearing CEO?! 4. After encountering a supernatural incident, Xu Lin awakened a special ability of his own and joined the Special Affairs Bureau. A stable government job, monster-slaying, a high salary, a secure position, and a bright future were all within reach. But... he'd dumped his boss! Wouldn't the man make his life miserable, dock his bonuses, stick him with overtime, and get revenge in every way he could? In short: he was doomed. His only future was packing up and going home to farm. The big boss smiled faintly. “You said you wanted to break up back then. Did I ever agree?” “Everyone knows you were my first love, my boyfriend of many years, and the man I planned to marry.” Xu Lin: The director's jealous and angry again. What about my bonus this month? Cao Yihui: Come with me to the marriage registration office. I'll put the luxury car and mansion in your name. Whether exes can still be friends is an old, melodramatic question, but it's a real one. #The chuunibyou CEO I once made fun of is actually a real overbearing CEO?! #The big shot I dumped has loved me all these years. [An overbearing CEO who's falsely aloof but truly a flirt] x [A gamer who's falsely easygoing but truly chuunibyou] * A little scene Before he joined Future colleague: “What did you think when you suddenly ran into a supernatural incident? Were you scared?” Xu Lin: “As a modern young man who lives by core values, has read countless transmigration novels, killed zombies and fought werewolves, and even taken apart a mech with his bare hands, I understand one thing perfectly: after the founding of the nation, animals aren't allowed to become spirits.” After he joined, on a business trip with the director Xu Lin: “Why did you only book one room?” Director: “That's the only way to lure out a ghost.” Xu Lin: “You think you can fool me just because I'm new and don't know how things work?” Tips: 1. This is a modern fantasy set in a fictional world. Please don't compare it to reality. 2. The plot and romance are split 50/50. I'm bad at blurbs, so please just read the story (.

Please add it to your collection. *rolls around* Awwww~~ 1. Xu Yanfei was bound to a Scumbag Boyfriend System. Mission: Play a cannon-fodder scumbag boyfriend in a harem romance. Deceive the beloved protagonist's feelings early in the story, then let the real love interest climb over you to fame, completing a face-slapping scene that makes readers shout, “Well done!” Xu Yanfei, raised right: “Why me?” System: “A harem romance can have five, six, seven, or even eight cannon-fodder love interests.” Xu Yanfei: ... There was such a high demand for cannon fodder that scumbag boyfriends were stuck doing the dirty, thankless work, and nobody wanted the job. Extra actors were in short supply. Xu Yanfei: “What if I refuse?” System: “Go, Pikachu! Warning: ten million volts!” 2. Out of respect for the threat of heavenly lightning, Xu Yanfei reluctantly began his mission. In the first world, the protagonist was a pretty airhead. Xu Yanfei helped him get through the prologue, and just as he was about to seduce him and set up the real love interest's face-slapping moment Xu Yanfei punched the protagonist in the face. Xu Yanfei: “You're a dead weight from start to finish. You're good for nothing!” In the second world, the protagonist was a pretty crybaby. Xu Yanfei helped him get through the prologue, and just as he was about to seduce him and set up the real love interest's face-slapping moment Xu Yanfei punched the protagonist in the face again. Xu Yanfei: “You cry all the time. It's annoying just looking at you!” In the third world, the protagonist was a pretty, pampered darling. Xu Yanfei: Same as above. In the fourth world, same as above. In the fifth world, same as above. In the sixth, the seventh... same as above. 3. Xu Yanfei derailed the plot. The System took an exceptionally effective ten-million-volt shock. “The protagonist is about to arrive... Host, you're on your own.” Xu Yanfei could only wait for the real love interest to step out of the book, slap him, the scumbag boyfriend, and avenge the beloved protagonist, completing the scene that would make readers shout, “Well done!” But the one who arrived wasn't the real love interest. It was the beloved, sweet, delicate protagonist, now gone dark. The now-dark, soft and sweet protagonist pinned Xu Yanfei in place. “You think you can run after playing with my feelings? Did I say you could?” Xu Yanfei: ??? Where was the scumbag boyfriend script he'd been promised? The protagonist is a shou who thinks he's a gong. The gong in every world is the same person. He gradually grows from a sweet, delicate type into an overbearing CEO. Theme: Keep going, and work hard to move forward.
