The Lazy Cannon Fodder Just Wants to Take It Easy

*

Yun Qingjun transmigrates into a novel about a male protagonist's revenge, as a vicious cannon-fodder character with the same name who meets a tragic end.

The original Yun Qingjun is not favored by the Yun family. They send him to marry the general by agreement only to steal the Ning family's secrets.

The young master of the Yun family is spoiled and arrogant, with a terrible temper. He acts like half the master of the Ning household and bullies its servants at will. When his temper flares, he doesn't even spare children just a few years old. In the end, after doing every kind of evil, he dies without a body left behind.

The System requires Yun Qingjun to follow the plot and act according to character, but that's difficult for a lazy couch potato who just wants to do nothing.

Luckily, the System promises that once he finishes the task, he can live however he wants.

So when the System tells him to make up an excuse to beat and berate the Ning family's servants, Yun Qingjun can only put on an act and smash the tonic soup meant for Ning Fengzhuo.

Then a few drops of the hot soup splash onto his ankle, leaving dark marks on his snow-white skin.

Yun Qingjun, who'd just sneaked a sip because it smelled so good, staggers and clutches his chest. "..." Help.

This chicken soup is so delicious, and it's poisoned!

To get through the task of stealing secrets, Yun Qingjun walks openly into the study where Ning Fengzhuo keeps important confidential documents, only to find that no one even tries to stop him.

Yun Qingjun: "..." Fine, then.

I'll do it myself.

He pretends to search Ning Fengzhuo's desk, thinking he'll leave some obvious clues as a token effort. But then the electronic safe beside it scans his iris and clicks open automatically.

Yun Qingjun, stunned: "???"

For the sake of a happy retirement, Yun Qingjun diligently plays the vicious cannon fodder. At last, the agreed date for the divorce arrives, and he even feels a little reluctant.

There's only one reason: since coming to the Ning family, Yun Qingjun has eaten well, drunk well, and slept well. He nearly lost his abs.

Ning Fengzhuo looks cold and restrained, but his study has an unlimited supply of desserts, as well as coffee, hot tea, and ice cream.

There's even a custom-made temperature-controlled sofa, though Yun Qingjun has never seen Ning Fengzhuo use it.

Most importantly, he can go into Ning Fengzhuo's study whenever he wants!

Yun Qingjun says to the System, "Do you think he wants to turn his study into a dessert shop?"

System: "..."

No. He just wants to lure in a greedy, sleepy little catfish and make it his.

Only after the tall, aloof man corners him and pens him in like prey he's determined to claim does Yun Qingjun realize he has one good piece of news and one bad piece of news.

The good news: the agreement has expired.

The bad news is--

The general renewed it behind his back.

For life.
