The Common Passerby at an Elite Boys' School

[I couldn't think of anything for the original premise, so I changed it. If that bothers you, feel free to remove it from your collection, dear readers!] Lu Chengyang accidentally transmigrates into an old-school Mary Sue novel set in an elite boys' school, where he becomes a noble and honorable... background character. After transmigrating into the book, Lu Chengyang doesn't panic. A background character just watches the main couple's romance every day, then claps and smiles like a fool without a care in the world: "Ah, they're so sweet and loving!" Right? But after observing for a while, Lu Chengyang realizes that he isn't just a background character assigned to one main couple. He's actually a shared one! His job is to pop up in all kinds of places, expected and unexpected, around Saint Louis Academy, an elite school, and add flavor to the main couples' exciting and stimulating school lives. For example: During class, he sits between the innocent couple and expressionlessly passes their endless little notes back and forth; While watching a movie, he suddenly gets forced to change seats, and from then on his attention shifts from the movie to the shy voices and supposedly secret little gestures beside him; On the alleys along his routes to and from school, he always sees the two of them getting lovey-dovey. They even live on either side of him, with him right in the middle! On top of that, he has to pass by all the melodramatic scenes involving the school bully and the poor, delicate flower, personally witnessing the bully threatening the delicate flower again and again. The delicate flower tearfully complains to him, the bully warns him not to meddle, and then the cycle repeats, over and over... And the wild couple is on another level! Whenever Lu Chengyang goes to the bathroom, he can run into them grappling in the next stall. Their strange thumping, banging, and moaning sounds make him clutch his toilet paper in silent endurance; The rooftop, the woods, the school auditorium, the equipment room, and the broadcasting station: he always spots them tangled together in those corners. Sometimes, as he passes by, the twisted top eagerly invites him to join in, or makes him a part of the top's threats to force the bottom to play along. Lu Chengyang's response: "...I can't take it anymore!!!" Lu Chengyang, who keeps crossing paths with the protagonists wherever they go, decides to make a change. Everyone knows that background characters are background characters in this kind of Mary Sue romance world because they're plain and ordinary. So if he stops being ordinary, he can get rid of his background-character buff, right?! Suddenly grows a brain.jpg After agonizing over it all night, Lu Chengyang decides to give himself a punk makeover. He dyes his hair a dazzling blue, paints his nails black, locks himself away to learn breakdancing and street dancing, puts on every kind of flashy metal accessory, and starts spouting catchphrases. So when the innocent couple begs him to pass a note in class again, Lu Chengyang immediately stands up and does a series of flashy hand dances to the beat of "Don't fall in love with me, it won't end well, unless you can beat my flower-hand dance." He successfully dances the note right out the window, then sits back down with a flourish; When the delicate flower starts crying to him again, he gazes up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and spits out some internet slang: "Don't lower your head, or your crown will fall. Don't cry, or the trash will laugh." When the twisted top invites him to join their play again, Lu Chengyang says nothing and starts dancing. He dances with confidence, dances with attitude, and dances so wildly that the whole wild couple loses interest on the spot! #Giving the danmei world a taste of punk shock# * Ever since his makeover, Lu Chengyang has been feeling a lot better mentally. The main characters leave him alone, he's in great spirits, and he has more motivation to study. One day, he meets another background character. Feeling that they're in the same boat, Lu Chengyang walks over to share his experience and enthusiastically offers some advice. "Bro, what you're doing won't work. They'll treat you like a tool. Don't just stand there. Follow me and start dancing!" Wen Xu: "..."
