Xie Ran is an ambitious, top-tier beauty. Unfortunately, he isn’t clever enough to play anything more complicated than a supporting character, a simple role as a tool for the protagonist.

Instead, he must upgrade the male side character in each world into the protagonist. Long-suppressed, Xie Ran finally lets loose. He focuses on climbing to the top, stepping on the protagonist seme with his left foot and the protagonist shou with his right, using every scheme and trick at his disposal until he reaches the highest position. He enjoys the glory that power and status bring him, making a perfect comeback from humble beginnings to become the protagonist! * Xie Ran is charming and pretty, but hopelessly guileless. His schemes and feelings are written all over his face for everyone to read. But some people love that about him. They know how to cheer him up and exactly what remedy to prescribe. They find him pitiful and adorable, and even when he’s plotting, his expressions are so vivid and lively that they let him get his way. They compete to give him the very best, cherishing him as the apple of their eye.
