After Becoming a Scumbag Insect, I Wooed That Female Insect

Blurb:

Jiu Shi had always had a lofty ambition: to become a ladies' man. Unfortunately, he never learned how to be one, nor did he have the promiscuous nature required. So he could only pass through a garden of flowers without touching a single one.

Then he transmigrated into a book, becoming a notorious, useless D-rank male insect. To make matters worse, a System claiming to have five-star reviews forcibly latched onto him.

System: Beep beep! The ladies' man achievement quest is now active. Host, boldly begin your life as a ladies' man!

After learning about the insect world, Jiu Shi was stunned. Was this world practically tailor-made for him?

He immediately made up his mind, rolled up his sleeves, tossed his principles aside, and prepared to go all out, vowing to achieve his lofty ambition of becoming a ladies' man.

He carefully picked and chose.

This one wouldn't do. She wasn't his type!

That one wouldn't do either. As a ladies' man, his harem had to be full of high-quality insects!

So, just as the System was about to crash, Jiu Shi finally chose a female insect who satisfied him in every way, making her the first step toward becoming a ladies' man.

Who knew he would get off to such a bad start? That first step turned out to be his last. Every insect he fished out of this so-called ladies' man's pond was the same one.

System: Dead. Do not disturb!

Aichier is a renowned young general known as the God of War, but he is also a very unusual female insect.

He is intensely possessive and extremely obsessive. In an insect society where one male insect can have multiple female partners, he refuses to share a male with anyone, and has consequently become an older, unmarried female.

Then one day, a bold male insect forcefully barges into his world, occupying his thoughts and leaving him anxious and uncertain every day.

So when this male insect tries to escape, Aichier holds on tight, willing to do whatever it takes.

But why is this process of doing whatever it takes so strange...

For example:

The day before yesterday, his male master dressed him up as a nurse. They ran into each other, flirted, went on a date, fell in love... um, and went to bed. Then came the heartless abandonment.

Yesterday, his male master put him in an incredibly embarrassing outfit, made him strike an exaggerated pose, and said words that made his ears burn and his heart race, only to turn around and disown him.

Today, his male master called him "darling" affectionately, sent him to trim the garden's branches, and held him while saying he was a delicate flower, only to coldly dismiss him when it was over.

Day after day, year after year, Aichier came to understand that his male master was a drama queen. He also learned to play along, and his worries and fears became unnecessary.

Bonus scene:

Jiu Shi: Ah, I'm the fighter ace of ladies' men! I dump one every day. My pond is already overflowing with insects.

System: Blind now. Hah!

******Ongoing Story****** "I Went Viral with My Bizarre Character Setup [Book Transmigration]"

Tan Feiyu accidentally transmigrated into a villainous cannon-fodder character in a novel.

The original character was domineering and arrogant, infamous in the entertainment industry and mocked by fans as a stinky, disgusting can of herring.

He was so pathologically obsessed with the novel's protagonist that he willingly let the protagonist and the love interest use him. He married a disabled tycoon, became their inside man, and eventually got written out as cannon fodder.

Tan Feiyu, after transmigrating: Cannon fodder? Getting married? No, no, no. I'm quitting the industry. I value my life, so I'll stay away from the protagonist and the love interest.

But before he could act on his plan, the original character turned into a ghost and started following him around. As a result, he was forced to stay in show business and help the original character fulfill his dream.

Tan Feiyu appears on a variety show.

Can't dance?

Tan Feiyu: "That's fine. I can do sword dancing."

Poisoned by martial arts novels since childhood, he had practiced a beautiful sword flourish.

The clip immediately shot to the top of the trending list and became the standard for period dramas.

Hater: "All right, you're impressive."

Tan Feiyu: "..."

Can't sing?

Tan Feiyu: "I'm no good at singing, but I can write lyrics."

How could a former hot-blooded, chuunibyou manga artist not know how to write lyrics?

His original, bold and free-spirited classical-style song, paired with his distinctive voice, left everyone else in the dust in no time.

Hater: "All right, you're amazing."

Tan Feiyu: "..."

A talent show?

Tan Feiyu: "Heh, nothing to worry about."

Having been immersed in the arts from a young age, he was proficient in traditional Chinese painting, calligraphy, and the guqin.

Former haters turned fans and showered him with praise: "Ahhh, little brother, do you need an accessory?"

Tan Feiyu: "..."

Acting?

Tan Feiyu: "Might as well give it a try."

Though he had never acted before, Tan Feiyu seemed to have suddenly unlocked his potential. His portrayal of a lonely young man stayed with people long after they watched.

Fans: "Sob, we'll always be with you."

Tan Feiyu: "...Thank you!"

Later, after Tan Feiyu had fought his way through the entertainment industry, his fans wept: "Sob, who said he was stinky and disgusting? That can of herring is delicious! Thank you!"

Tan Feiyu hesitated: "...That's really not necessary!"

However, as Tan Feiyu began to thrive in the entertainment industry, the disabled tycoon's presence slowly made its way into his heart...

At first, he wanted to stay away. Then, little by little, the disabled tycoon began to cherish and stand by him.

Tan Feiyu worked hard on his journey to success, but the disabled tycoon's quiet support was just as important.

When Tan Feiyu realized his heart was beginning to fall, he panicked. How could a wanderer allow himself to be tied down?

So he packed his bags and prepared to run!

The disabled tycoon looked despondent. "It's true. With these useless legs, I can't climb mountains or cross rivers with you. And this ruined face of mine isn't worthy of your brightness. Go."

Tan Feiyu: "...Forget it."

Afterward, with gentle eyes and a loving gaze: "Now that I have you, you'll always be the only male lead in my comics."

I'll give up wandering the four corners of the world to find a home in your heart, and protect you for the rest of my life!
