[Blurb] When Sui Xing woke up, he discovered he had become the fourth cannon-fodder seme in an unfinished novel where readers could bet on which love interest would win. He had nothing but good looks and tear ducts that worked overtime: just rub the corners of his eyes, and they would turn red. There were five love interests. The first was a decisive, ruthless CEO; the second, a refined but depraved smiling snake; the third, a younger, volatile mad dog; and the fifth, a scheming green tea. As the least competitive of the love interests, Sui Xing would end up fighting them for the protagonist shou and suffer a fate worse than death. System: You need to win over the protagonist shou and max out his affection, then come out on top among the love interests if you want a chance to survive. Sui Xing: Let's gooo! * To stay alive, Sui Xing had no choice but to set out to win over the protagonist shou. He stayed up late tutoring him, got up early to bring him breakfast, and offered warm comfort just in time whenever Love Interests One, Two, Three, or Five tried to force themselves on him. Gradually, Sui Xing realized the protagonist shou was looking at him strangely. And it wasn't just him: the love interests were looking at him differently, too. He even seemed to have acquired the protagonist shou's tendency to cry uncontrollably and his irresistible charm. Sui Xing, who only wanted to follow the plot: I'm done for. * The protagonist shou had always been cold toward his admirers, until a hopelessly foolish little dummy appeared. The little dummy wasn't very good at winning people over. When tutoring him, he would get stumped by the questions until his eyes turned damp and red. He always forgot to add salt to the lovingly prepared breakfasts he brought. He even barged in while the protagonist was having dinner with his four friends, cheeks flushed as he declared that he had to protect him. But then the little dummy suddenly disappeared, until the protagonist saw His calm and composed friend number one frantically demanding, "Do you like me, or Xie Yu?" His refined and elegant friend number two gripping Sui Xing's slender waist: "Cry for me. You look best when you cry." His moody friend number three patiently wiping milk from his lips: "You're all grown up. Why are you still like a little kitten?" His friend number four, so sickeningly sweet, inviting Sui Xing out with a tilted head and a smile: "I asked Xingxing out. Xie Yu won't get mad if he finds out, will he? He's so scary." Xie Yu, who hadn't quite turned evil yet: ??? Help, that's my wife! Sui Xing, looking horrified: No way! I don't want this! * Beloved, silly beauty shou x aloof-on-the-outside, obsessive seme later on * No splitting the seme into multiple characters / no betting on the love interests * The seme is a virgin * I don't accept writing advice. If you drop the novel, please don't tell me. [Coming Soon] "This is a pure horror survival game. The survival rate is extremely low, and the NPCs are savage." "To escape, you'll need off-the-charts strength and spiritual power." Chi Ying was timid and frail. His beautiful face, beautiful enough to be a sin, earned him no sympathy, and he died in the beginner instance just as expected. "The game pities its players, so whenever someone clears an instance, it gives one player a chance to come back to life." "Dead players are assigned to instances as NPCs." Chi Ying became that lucky player, reborn as an NPC, with a different physical disability in each instance. * At some point, players began noticing a foolish, stupid NPC in the game, someone anyone could bully. In the coffin in the castle basement, players wantonly toyed with the slender, disabled legs of the NPC. Blindfolded with white cloth, he searched the school for a murder target, only to be pinned in a corner and bullied by a player. At a ghost wedding in an ancient village, the NPC who was supposed to take people's lives was held by the waist as a player forced the little mute to say humiliating things. * The game creates videos of its instances to entertain the evil gods of the upper realms. The players' fear, suspicion, and mutual slaughter are the most amusing diversion in the gods' long lives. In one beginner instance, a pretty, timid little unlucky one became a new obsession for an evil god. But the little unlucky one died on the first night. Later, the game introduced guest appearances, and players, ghosts, and NPCs all became favorite sources of amusement for the evil gods. After being harassed by his NPC coworker's tentacles for the Nth time, Chi Ying complained softly, "You say the game is merciful, but I think I'd be better off dead." Before he could finish saying "dead," a vine slipped into his mouth. "I Became the Beautiful Cannon Fodder in a Harem Romance with a Beloved Male Lead" Yu You had a strikingly beautiful face, but even with buffs that made him delicate and frail, sensitive and passionate, and prone to uncontrollable tears, he still barely registered. When he woke up, he learned that the world he was in was a cultivation novel featuring a beloved male lead and a harem. The cold, beautiful master would be dragged from his pedestal by the Demon Venerable and his first, second, third, and fourth disciples, imprisoned in a bottomless water dungeon, and tormented and humiliated day after day, before ending up pregnant and reaching a happy ending. As for Yu You, he was a minor cannon fodder with barely any lines, destined to die of poisoning during a secret-realm trial. Yu You's eyes brimmed with tears. His master had five disciples, and he was the fourth. * To protect his master from harm, Yu You devised a meticulous plan. On a cold, dew-heavy night, he curled up in a corner of his master's room to keep any disciples who might suddenly show up from setting their sights on him. In the bitter cold, he sent his junior brother, who carried the bloodline of a demon dragon, to soak in an icy spring, so he wouldn't lose control of his demonic urges in the future. When they went down the mountain to train, he made sure to send away his scheming senior brothers, numbers one, two, and three, and reminded them to respect their master. The war between immortals and demons raged, and the human world suffered. When the Demon Venerable charged in, his eyes bloodshot with murderous intent, but a slender, delicate figure blocked his way. With red-rimmed eyes and a determined gaze, Yu You gripped his sword tight. "If you want to harm my master, you'll have to step over my dead body first." * Immortal Venerable Changqi noticed that his little disciple seemed a bit strange. Whenever he looked at him, his gaze was always full of confusion and pity. After catching him staring at his lower abdomen for the nth time, he couldn't help asking why. The pretty little imp's cheeks turned red, and his voice rang clear. "Master, can you have a baby?" Later, as wars erupted one after another, the demonic forces that had been wreaking havoc inexplicably withdrew. But the sinister, cruel Demon Venerable fixed his sights on Yu You and made a very public marriage proposal. Later still, Yu You watched as everyone became completely infatuated with him. The disciple he had once been so proud of pressed his lips to the little imp's, licking them with burning eyes. "I can have a baby. Choose me." Theme: Even in adversity, remember to live well.
