★ A gorgeous, tsundere, high-maintenance beauty on the receiving end VS a cold to outsiders, secretly devoted wife-lover

Jian Cong and his ex-boyfriend were together for six months, and their breakup was anything but amicable.

After they split up, his ex became an internationally renowned Best Actor, while Jian Cong wound up as a nobody at the bottom of the entertainment industry, hated by the entire internet.

One day, his family suddenly tells him to come home for a blind date. His date turns out to be his ex-boyfriend, Fu Wenzhou.

Fu Wenzhou pulls out his household register. "Afraid to marry me?"

Jian Cong sneers. "Fine, let's get married. It's not like I'm scared of you."

When news of their marriage breaks, the whole internet is stunned. The two also announce that they'll be appearing on a dating reality show.

Before the show airs:

Viewers: Settling in to watch the drama. Let's see how Best Actor Fu face-slaps nobody Jian Bai Lian.

After the show airs:

Jian Cong's sweet, delicate persona falls apart, and he turns out to be a demanding little menace with no flaws in sight. He's also a natural at ordering his hubby around.

"Fu Wenzhou, pack our bags."

"Fu Wenzhou, make dinner."

"Fu Wenzhou, run me a bath."

As for the famously aloof and cold Best Actor Fu, not only does he have no complaints, he even enjoys pushing himself to do more.

"Of course I'll pack the bags."

"I'll only cook the things you like."

"Is the bathwater the right temperature?"

Everyone: Why is this kind of adorable?

Once Jian Cong drops his delicate white-lotus act, it's as if a seal has been broken. His beauty skyrockets, and he lands one prestigious brand endorsement after another.

The haters say his face is all he's got. Jian Cong then becomes a sensation on a singing show, wins an international dance award, and shows off his talent with every instrument. The nobody becomes a top-tier star.

The haters then say he's a terrible actor who can't even do his job properly.

Right after that, a renowned director and producer announce Jian Cong as one of the two male leads, acting opposite Fu Wenzhou. The haters immediately claim he only got the part by riding on the Best Actor's coattails. Then Jian Cong wins the Best Actor award and becomes internationally renowned.

The haters make snide remarks about how he used to have an ambiguous relationship with a wealthy tycoon.

Then the entire wealthy Jian family throws a lavish celebration to congratulate their youngest son on winning Best Actor.

Later, sharp-eyed fans digging through the CP's history discover that Jian Cong and Fu Wenzhou had been together before. Their marriage-first, love-later story turns out to be a second-chance romance.

CP fans: 5555, how did this get even more shippable?

Later still, everyone discovers that the demanding little menace was also the Best Actor's first love and the one who got away. They went to the same high school.

Everyone: QAQ Fine, I'll ship them, okay?!

Gan Nuo is a newly appointed System.

His first mission is to play the protagonist's attack's lackey in a modern romance novel, help the protagonist's attack defeat the scumbag attack and the villainous tycoon, and win the protagonist's receiver's heart.

He excitedly rushes out, forgetting to ask the protagonist's attack his name. All he knows is that the protagonist's attack is handsome.

So when he sees a gloomy tycoon sitting in a wheelchair, the man's beauty takes his breath away, and Gan Nuo is certain that this must be his Host.

He stays by the tycoon's side, trying his best to play the lackey while diligently helping him find the protagonist's receiver. Then he suddenly realizes that the tycoon is actually the biggest villain in the novel!

To make up for his mistake, Gan Nuo starts following another handsome man right in front of the tycoon.

Then he discovers that this handsome man isn't the protagonist's attack either. He's the original novel's yandere scumbag attack.

He switches to another person, only to find that this one is the cool and aloof protagonist's receiver.

So he has to switch again.

Looking at the tall, handsome man radiating righteousness, Gan Nuo finally relaxes. This has to be the protagonist's attack, no question. Now he can focus on his mission.

But then he realizes that all these men are looking at him strangely.

The gloomy tycoon reaches out, wanting to take him home.

The yandere scumbag attack strokes the electronic band on his wrist and tells him he can track him down no matter where he goes.

The cool and aloof protagonist's receiver holds him with bloodshot eyes, his gaze full of obsession.

The protagonist's attack rubs his cheek and tells him that the safest place for him is by his side.

Gan Nuo: Help, I think there's something wrong with all of you QAQ

Later, Gan Nuo discovers that he even transmigrated into the wrong book!

The material he'd read was a fanfic, but the original story is a deranged, villainous work about a fragmented demon. All the people he kept switching to are actually the same person...

The demon whispers in his ear: "Are you going to run again?"

Gan Nuo, frightened and upset: "No. I'm off the job now."

Theme: May the years treat every wait with tenderness.
