The Cannon Fodder Doesn't Want to Be the White Moonlight (Quick Transmigration)

The entire novel costs about as much as a cup of milk tea. Writing isn’t easy, so I hope you’ll support the official release. Yan Chengshu is a cannon fodder actor. In any story, countless cannon fodder characters tend to throw themselves into the fray to make the protagonist’s story more entertaining. But some stand out from the crowd: they play crucial roles at major turning points, pushing the plot forward through their own spectacularly self-destructive actions. Yan Chengshu’s job is to be the cannon fodder who moves the plot along. The only thing he can’t figure out is why, whenever he’s about to exit the story as cannon fodder, someone always puts some strange filter on him, making him seem like a selfless good guy. World One: Beginner difficulty. You’re about to play an unlucky prince sent to the Xiongnu as a hostage. The male lead is the Marquis of Zhenyuan, who has just usurped your family’s ancestral throne. Yan Chengshu reads through the plot. Under normal circumstances, the male lead should crush the Xiongnu and bring peace and prosperity to the nation. But in reality, the unlucky prince takes the opportunity to stab the male lead, allowing the Xiongnu remnants to escape. They then raid the border year after year, leaving the people in dire straits. The System has set his transmigration time one second before the unlucky prince stabs the male lead. Yan Chengshu only needs to turn the knife around and stab himself in the neck to finish the task. Who knew he’d arrive a full three months early? And damn it, he has to wait until the male lead has safely defeated the Xiongnu before he can leave! After a hard-fought battle of wits against the Xiongnu, Yan Chengshu finally holds out until the male lead kills their king. Just as he’s about to take his own life, a hidden arrow shoots straight toward the male lead. No way!!! The male lead still has to return and restore the realm!!! Leave the fake-death act to me!!! Yan Chengshu rushes forward without a second thought. “Why did you save me?” “Who are you, really...?” “Rumors said the Third Prince was a coward who clung to life. I thought I knew better, yet I repeated what everyone else said. You managed to hold your own against the brutal Xiongnu for three months, protected the Zhenyuan Army in a court rotten to its core, and even did everything you could to protect the spy I planted by your side. If that’s what it means to cling to life, then what does that make everyone else?” “Why are you unwilling to live even one more day?” “The nation still needs you...” “Yan Chengshu, please, stay alive...” P.S. The overall tone is just like this: a melodramatic, bittersweet, cathartic story. If that’s not your thing, run! P.P.S. Everyone in the main story has a one-sided crush. The official pairing is Chu Wangyan in the playboy world. P.P.P.S. Dear readers, I promise you, please don’t bring up other people’s works in the comments unless they’re my close friend. Thanks. And please don’t mention me in other people’s comment sections either. Much appreciated. Theme: Keep your eyes open and see the truth
