I, the Aloof Male Supporting Character, Am Done Pretending

[Normally updated according to the rankings. I'm planting flowers and trees, so you're welcome to add this to your collection~]

(Foxy, flirtatious playboy bottom x jealous, unhinged top who watches his lover making waves in the sea; a major dog-training scene, with arrows pointing in every direction but all aimed at the bottom)

Ning Mian transmigrates into a book, becoming the aloof male supporting character in an old-fashioned, angsty crematorium romance. He is restrained and proper, buttoning his shirt to the very top even in the hottest summer weather. After failing to win the bottom's heart, he leaves dejectedly and goes abroad.

After spending ten years in the apocalypse, Ning Mian crosses over and sneers disdainfully: Is this even a man?

Ning Mian heads straight to the nightclub where the story begins. He waits until the main couple show up, then suddenly loses interest in the bottom's delicate, white-lotus face and sets his sights on the top instead.

Ning Mian licks his lips, deliberately bumps into the top, and lets himself fall into his arms. His eyes redden slightly as he pants coquettishly: Big brother, please help me.

The next morning, Ning Mian leaves a card on the bedside table with a note: Your skills are terrible. Let's not do this again. Bye-bye.

Then he leaves the main character all alone.

Fixating on one tree has never been Ning Mian's style. He knows there are other men in this novel besides the main character, so he gets even more flirtatious, coming and going with the tides, but every time he has just started to seduce someone, he's interrupted.

Ning Mian looks at the tall man in front of him with disdain and says sarcastically: Don't tell me you're a virgin and expect me to take responsibility for you?

Fang Zhitin ignores him completely, tapping the WeChat screen with his finger: Do you call everyone big brother?

Ning Mian nods indifferently: Yep.

Then he grins and strokes Fang Zhitin's face: But you're my favorite big brother.

And so... Ning Mian doesn't get out of bed for three days.

Everyone says Fang Zhitin picked up a darling at the nightclub, sweet and well-behaved, love at first sight, and even brought him into his company as his executive secretary.

Until Fang Zhitin frowns and sets the record straight himself: Who are you talking about? I don't know him. I'm pursuing someone. Don't let him get the wrong idea.

Ning Mian happens to see this on TV and raises an eyebrow, stretching casually: What's there to misunderstand?

And so... Ning Mian can't get out of bed for another three days.

Fang Zhitin grips Ning Mian's waist tightly with one hand. His eyes are like a blizzard as he says hoarsely: Why shouldn't he get the wrong idea? Who are you still thinking about?

Content warnings:

1. Second edit: The bottom is a pure playboy and universally adored. This is a dog-training story. At first, the top sees him as inspiration and a hookup (and refuses to admit he's falling for him), but later the bottom turns him into a little freak who "erupts after staying silent."

2. Extreme character loyalists are not welcome. I spent a lot of effort on the character outlines. Neither the top nor the bottom is perfect, so please don't demand that either one be absolutely loyal to the other.

3. The bottom had plenty of experience in his previous life but none in this one. The top is a virgin. If that's a dealbreaker, feel free to click away.

4. The top and bottom's values don't represent the author's. Please don't insult me personally. Finally, I hope you enjoy reading and find stories on Jinjiang that suit you. If you don't like this one, don't force yourself!
