A Few Tales from the Street Stall

Shen Meixing transmigrated into a book, becoming a villain who sells street snacks.

The original character would grow jealous of the protagonist's success, provoke him again and again, get face-slapped repeatedly, and eventually make a miserable exit.

It sounded bleak, but Shen Meixing discovered that his snack-making skills had come with the body. He was now a craftsperson with a skill of his own!

As long as he stayed away from the plot and focused on selling snacks, a hard-working road to riches was just around the corner.

But plans never keep up with change. His electric tricycle was borrowed in the middle of the night by his neighbor Gu Shun, who promptly wrecked it. Gu Shun also drew the attention of a supporting character.

Shen Meixing worried that Gu Shun would attract the protagonist's attention and drag him into the mess. If he were forced to follow the plot again, he'd be in trouble.

What should he do? Maybe he could make Gu Shun work for him as compensation for the tricycle, so he could keep tabs on him?

Gu Shun was capable and hardworking, but he had a knack for saying something aggravating three times a day.

The two of them traded barbs, and their banter had its own charm.

Still, accusing him of not knowing how to live properly was a bit much. Shen Meixing rolled his eyes. "It's not like I'm living with you!"

Gu Shun thought for a moment. "We're not now, but that doesn't mean we won't in the future."

Shen Meixing got it. Gu Shun had ulterior motives: he wanted to join his hard-work-and-get-rich package?

Thinking it over, that might not be such a bad idea.

Reborn Gu Shun: "Boss, want me to point you toward a bright future?"

Shen Meixing kept well away from the protagonist, shaking his head frantically and telling Gu Shun to shut up.

Not long afterward, Gu Shun asked, "Want to have dinner with my family sometime?"

Shen Meixing pretended to be reluctant, though he was actually delighted to accept. "...Gu Shun, explain yourself! What does the protagonist have to do with your family?!"

* The original protagonist isn't a bad person. I won't vilify him or deliberately get close to him.
