Chu Shen is extremely troubled.
He was a carefree rich second-generation heir, until some inexplicable System showed up and started making him do inexplicable tasks.
Otherwise, he’d have to say goodbye to the long, chilly string of digits in his bank account.
Chu Shen: ...Fine, fine! I’ll take it right now, okay? My friend, don’t go after my cold, hard cash.
The tasks are simple: all he has to do is play a background NPC in each small world.
But he absolutely cannot break character!
To keep lying flat at home, Chu Shen has no choice but to swallow his pride and start acting out his assigned roles.
But every time, something unexpected happens...
[World One: The Tyrannical CEO]
You need to play a domineering CEO who’s wild, seductive, and ruthless, and occasionally show your aloof secretary a little warmth... Hey, hey, hey! According to the script, you can’t just hit him for no reason!
Chu Shen falls silent: But he touched my hand, and...
[And? And what, Host? Spit it out.]
“He touched me somewhere he shouldn’t have...”
#My secretary looks at me in a very strange way#
#Why does the CEO next door keep asking me to go fishing with him?#
[World Two: The Beloved Young Master]
You’re the gentle second male lead, the beloved one, and the big brother everyone in your circle trusts and admires. All you have to do is share your warmth equally with each of your younger brothers, and then... Hey, hey! Then you can leave, Host!
Chu Shen is on the verge of a breakdown. “Do you think I don’t want to leave? Do you think I don’t want to leave? They keep clinging to my legs and asking why I can’t treat them even better!”
#Why are all these younger brothers jealous of each other??#
#Why are they fighting again?!#
#It’s universal love, not favoritism!#
[World Three: The Pathetic, Honest Man]
System: “...This time... you must not mess around, Host.”
“You’re an honest, straight man who lucked into marrying a gorgeous wife (a man). All you have to do is meekly serve tea and water when your wife’s boss comes to visit, and pretend not to notice them flirting with each other...”
Chu Shen dutifully follows the instructions, then heads back to his room, dejected, and lifts the cold covers...
His wife is lying naked inside, saying that now is the perfect time to play some sexy little games.
#My wife is always trying to drain me dry#
#Why does my wife’s boss keep asking me out?#

An idea comes to me, so I write it down, hehe.
