The gong's entire life could be summed up in four words: utterly unremarkable.
Selfish and stupid, he loved playing petty little tricks that never amounted to anything. After spending half his life destitute, he was reborn.
When he woke up, a baffling memory appeared in his mind. He learned that he was living in the world of a novel, and that he himself was merely an extra who hadn't even earned a name.
It was a danmei novel with a very nuanced romance.
The protagonist gong was actually a wealthy young heir who had been lost by accident. Due to a mishap, he had spent more than ten years living in a poor district. His father had never cared for him, his mother had never loved him, and at school he was a pitiful outcast who was constantly bullied.
Only the protagonist shou showed him kindness. To the protagonist gong, the shou was the most important light in his life.
After being welcomed back into his wealthy family, he naturally pursued the protagonist shou relentlessly, pestering him until he finally won his heart.
By any measure, it was a pretty sweet little romance.
But now the gong wasn't going to give them that chance. Armed with the script, he was going to take the lead himself.
The protagonist gong was only a teenager now. He hadn't met his destined love yet and was still living like a little jinx.
Watching the protagonist gong get cornered and beaten in an alley, the gong curled his lips into a smile.
He'd found a way to get rich.
He was going to be this boy's moonlight.
At first, everything went smoothly. The gong crafted a perfect persona for himself, but unfortunately, a fake was always a fake.
The protagonist gong couldn't stand his greed and stupidity, so the gong's moonlight plan failed, and he became a hated ex-boyfriend.
But that was fine. As they broke up, the gong walked away with a huge sum of money, and he was delighted.
Until one day, the protagonist gong started clinging to him again.
Gong: ...What a nuisance.
Theme: Love should be free of deception. Only sincerity can win love.
