Why Does the Protagonist Always Cling to Me?

1. After the genius composer Shen Ye died unexpectedly, he transmigrated into a romance reality-show novel where readers bet on love interests, becoming the vicious cannon fodder who frames the protagonist shou.

What should a cannon fodder do? Cling to the protagonist's coattails and fight to survive?

Lazy Shen Ye thinks that's too much trouble. He died a virgin in his last life, so this time he's decided to enjoy himself while he can with a gorgeous beauty, like that perfect-looking man having a drink over there!

The beauty has broad shoulders, a narrow waist, long legs, and an eight-pack. Every last detail is exactly Shen Ye's type.

Afterward, Shen Ye wonders if he ought to take responsibility, only to learn that the beauty is the most popular love interest in the novel.

Who could have guessed the protagonist would hang out in nightclubs, too? Where's his morality! Where's his dignity! Where are his principles! And where's his contact info... Ahem.

Thinking of all the popular love interests in the novel who are head over heels for the protagonist shou, Shen Ye makes a quick getaway.

2. To his surprise, Shen Ye sees that man again the next day.

Bai Jing sits on the sofa, staring at him with wounded eyes. His tone is just like that of a miserable spouse abandoned by a heartless lover: "So, was I just a fling to you?"

Shen Ye: Oh no. I'm doomed.

Under his manager's threat of a breach-of-contract penalty, Shen Ye is forced to join the romance show with Bai Jing. He had planned to stay away from the protagonist's group, but unfortunately, one certain someone loves clinging to him.

At lunch, he pesters Shen Ye to feed him. During the games, he insists they be on the same team. When they pick rooms, he sticks close so they can share one. And when it's time to shower...

Shen Ye braces himself against the door, determined to protect his chastity to the bitter end.

But Bai Jing's peach-blossom eyes brim with laughter as he bends down and leans close to Shen Ye. The voice by his ear sounds half like a plaintive complaint, half like a siren's seduction: "You really don't want to join me?"

Shen Ye, blinded by lust: "%#...￥"

The fans are so overwhelmed by their flirting that their noses start bleeding:

[Now that's sexual tension! Kiss already! You're so close! Bai Jing, pull yourself together!]

[Aaah, the aloof beauty and his sweet, tsundere little kitten, I'm shipping them so hard!]

Victim Shen Ye is on the verge of tears: What aloof beauty? He's a lecher with nothing but dirty thoughts in his head!
