The Sickly, Beautiful Cannon Fodder and the School Hunk Lead Live Together [Reborn]

Ding Yi was reborn and discovered that he was the sickly male supporting character in a novel, a disposable pawn in the protagonists’ romance. No wonder that no matter how hard he had tried in his previous life, he hadn’t gotten into the same university as the classmate he loved. Instead, he’d brought the classmate and the female lead together. Then he received a malicious letter that made his condition worse and killed him. Now that he had a second chance at life, Ding Yi decided to quietly wish them well and live for himself. After all, the other guy was as straight as they came, and fate had already decided how things would turn out. But then, just as the second semester of his senior year of high school began... The other guy asked to sit with him and help him with his studies. He went to great lengths to get them assigned the same room, claiming, “You’re not in good health. You need someone to look after you.” He took over all the housework, practically even offering to bathe him, and became almost like his personal butler. One day, after Chi Shang blew on Ding Yi’s herbal medicine to cool it, Ding Yi said coyly, “I don’t want candied fruit anymore. I’m sick of it.” Chi Shang gazed at the boy’s lovely face, then suddenly leaned in and kissed his lips, still fragrant with medicine. His eyes reddened at the corners as he asked, “Do you like this?” Looking at the male lead, now utterly lovestruck over him, Ding Yi fell into a deep silence. What exactly had gone wrong? This wasn’t how things had happened in his previous life! Only later did he learn that the novel had been bought out and drastically rewritten. A female lead who had never existed was added to make it suitable for release, but she was actually a cross-dressing man. His destined partner in the original novel had always been him!!! [Delicate young master who faints at the drop of a hat bottom X Shameless, devoted puppy-dog top who’ll do anything to win his lover] Notes: 1. They don’t move in together right away. The overall tone is sweet. 2. The top spoils the bottom without limits and has no romantic entanglements with anyone else. Neither of them has been with anyone else, in their previous life or this one. 3. The plot and the characters are both conventional. 4. Some place and school names are real, for ease of immersion, but this is an alternate-universe story! ******Pre-release novels****** Next book: “The Flirtatious Beauty Turns the Top-Tier Star Gay on a Dating Show” Ying Xinghe, the heartthrob of the university’s traditional Chinese medicine department, was born with a classically beautiful face that made it hard to tell whether he was a man or a woman.

One night, he finally gave in to temptation and pinned the beautiful man to the bed.

When Sui Yu was young, he was often bullied by a boy four years younger than him. The kid would smear snot and drool all over him and cling to him like a little accessory. But Sui Yu had only come down the mountain with his master to exorcise evil spirits and bring peace. He wasn’t actually the kid’s older brother. Every year afterward, the child’s parents brought him to the temple to support Sui Yu’s master and ask for advice. As soon as the boy saw Sui Yu, he’d demand kisses, hugs, and to be carried around. Once he grew up, he stopped coming with them. Sui Yu heard that he didn’t believe in any of that stuff at all. One day, his master received a call for help from the boy’s parents. They said that after their son returned from a trip to an ancient village, his personality had changed completely. He was moody and unpredictable, and at night he would sleepwalk outside and lie down by the roadside. His master called Sui Yu over. “Sui, I’m leaving Zhao Yi to you. It’s time you learned to stand on your own.” Sui Yu packed his things and headed down the mountain. But this trip changed everything he believed in. That kid was clearly twenty years old and more than half a head taller than him, so why did he still want kisses, hugs, and to be carried around? And the most infuriating part was that refusing him didn’t work. Sui Yu said helplessly, “Let go!” Zhao Chen rested his head on Sui Yu’s shoulder, a wicked smile in his eyes as he said in an innocent voice, “Brother Sui, I’m scared.” Sui Yu: “...” The first time Zhao Chen had a wet dream, Sui Yu was the one in it. That was when he realized something incredible: he wanted his older brother to be his wife. But you can’t force love, especially when the other person is a man, and even more so when he’s a Taoist priest who has taken vows. After that, Zhao Chen stopped going up the mountain with his parents. As time passed, he felt he’d managed to forget Sui Yu. Even his dreams no longer brought them together. Until one early summer night, he opened his eyes and saw the man standing beside his bed, his handsome brows furrowed as if deep in thought. In that moment, only one thought remained in Zhao Chen’s mind: “Damn it, you’re not getting away from me this time.” [Ascetic Taoist master bottom X Wicked younger top, both virgins, happy ending] Theme: Chase your dreams bravely and make the most of your youth.
