Young Master Duan Zhengge of the Duan family, who had ruled the roost in A City for years, was suddenly murdered and transmigrated into a melodramatic love quadrangle novel his younger sister had written in elementary school.
In this ridiculously over-the-top Mary Sue romance novel, the heroine was childhood friends with the great villain and bickered like a couple with the male lead. She gave an orphan a hairpin on the street and gained a devoted second male lead. She disguised herself as a man and entered a brothel, gaining an alluring third male lead. The same went for the fourth, fifth, sixth, all the way to the Nth male lead.
In short, everyone loved the heroine, from the eighty-year-old emperor to her eight-year-old younger brother.
System 6442: [As long as you complete the plot and flesh out the characters, Host, you can return to the real world.]
Duan Zhengge, who knew the great villain's ultimate fate: Heh.
Since he was going back to the modern world in the end, no one could blame him for spreading his wings and soaring!
And so, everyone in the Great Yan Kingdom knew that their crown prince was eccentric, cruel, and full of tricks. He was not only a natural at business rivalries, but could also handle political struggles with ease.
Still, his trusted aides knew that the Crown Prince had a little tenderness in him.
He reserved all of it for the little shadow guard at his side.
The second male lead came to the capital because of a blizzard. Duan Zhengge: Help him out.
The second male lead: "I-I'll repay you, my lord!"
The second male lead couldn't endure shadow guard training. Duan Zhengge: Give him a hand.
The second male lead: "If Your Highness remembers me, I'll fight to the death to stand behind you."
The second male lead graduated as the top shadow guard but was given a hard time. Duan Zhengge: Protect him.
The second male lead: "Your servant is willing to protect his master for all eternity. I'll brave any danger without hesitation."
The second male lead was given a special drug during a mission. Duan Zhengge: This, I can't really...
The second male lead's eyes reddened as he turned his head away. "Your servant wouldn't dare presume to seek his master's affection. My master is like an immortal. How could your servant ever deserve him?"
Duan Zhengge: "Actually, it's not impossible..."
System 6442: [...Hey, hey, hey!]
Everyone knew Duan Zhengge treated the second male lead well, but the second male lead didn't dare believe it!
Duan Zhengge: "I'll give you any official post you want, and you'll get plenty of rewards, but I'll certainly have to marry a young lady from a prestigious family. You don't need to think of yourself as part of my household's inner quarters."
The second male lead lowered his head, fists clenched until his knuckles turned white. "Yes."
Duan Zhengge: "I don't expect you to be at my beck and call all the time. Once every three days will do."
Light shone in the second male lead's eyes. "Yes."
Duan Zhengge: "Tell me what you want."
The second male lead knocked his head to the ground and asked, "May your servant... come to you once every two days?"
If His Highness ever grew tired of him, at least he would have a few more memories to cherish.
Duan Zhengge was exasperated: They were already in that kind of relationship, so why couldn't he ask for a high-ranking official post!
Sigh, he would help the second male lead build a career. He was going to fake his death and escape anyway, then return to the modern world at the end of the story.
And so, the Crown Prince's treacherous plot was exposed, and he took his own life in prison.
But a few days later, Duan Zhengge, having faked his death and escaped, watched from afar as the second male lead knelt for three days and three nights in front of his grave. His heart gave a sudden lurch.
He suddenly didn't want to let go.

[Key points]:
1. Even if the dog turns evil, he'll only snarl at other people. In front of his master, he'll still just gaze up innocently with big eyes and wag his tail.
2. Point 1 may not necessarily happen.
3. A husband-pursuing crematorium that never really gets going, because the puppy can wait forever for his master to turn back.

[Upcoming story blurb]
Wei Yi debuted as a child star and won four major awards at home and abroad by the age of 22. He was, without question, the top Alpha actor in the eyes of both his fellow performers and audiences.
By comparison, omega Shen Nian seemed almost insignificant. He had worked hard to finish drama school, hidden his pheromones every day, and struggled to land bit parts in one production after another.
Yet even the most insignificant actor has a dream: to become an award-winning actor, stand at the pinnacle of the entertainment industry, and shine like a brilliant star!
By chance, Shen Nian got to act alongside Wei Yi, only to realize how naive his dream had been.
The gap between him and the award-winning actor was made painfully and unmistakably clear.
When they first met, Wei Yi felt regret.
He thought that if the beta standing before him, named Shen Nian, had pheromones, his acting talent might have made him famous years ago.
He never imagined that Shen Nian was, in fact, a bona fide omega!
"If you have pheromones, why hide them?" He pinned the other man against the wall and loomed over him like a beast baring its fangs. "Let me teach you how to use this gift from heaven."
[Key points]:
1. The male lead is 25, the other lead is 27. The male lead is younger.
2. ABO setting.
3. The blurb has been revised from the original.
Theme: Even when modern and ancient ways of thinking clash, love can help us understand one another
Although I didn't say that I must stay in Shou's world, after reading the whole story, I didn't take the second male lead seriously (it's just a bit frustrating, after all, I only read the second male lead in the past) (I feel like the second male lead is a bit slutty)
What do I mean, author, why do you have to go through a lifetime of suffering to get here? Then why, I really can't feel that he loves you, just like a pet, at most I like it a little bit.
I'm very attracted to him. I felt a little frustrated at the beginning. He didn't take the male lead too seriously (the male lead didn't take himself seriously and was a bit frustrated). Although he also has difficulties, please don't hurt him if you don't love him. If you love him deeply and can't accompany him, please don't provoke him (it's not controlled. Don't scold him because you are justified). I really hope that the male lead will not recover his memory. I personally feel that the male lead needs to re-establish his personality and three views. After all, it is a modern chapter (the above is purely a personal complaint)
I came here to see an ending, but I was confused by the ending. I can't find the words to describe the direction of the plot.
No,,,, doesn't anyone think it's wrong? Duan is really ready to never meet again. If it wasn't for Leng Awakening, it would have been as deduced. Even after Gong knew the result, he still left. Damn it, brother, how can you be Jinjiang Gong? Why don't you go to Dianjia to be the cold male protagonist?
The emotional line is so bad...
Reconciliation was achieved without a hundred words...
Duan Zhenge's struggle is a bit like Toyokawa Shoko. In the end, he found that his family name is more useful.
Maybe you are used to it, the protagonists all choose to stay in the ending, but Duan Zhenge also said that no matter which way he chooses, he will regret it. Originally, she was talking to Leng Qingfeng about Tiantian before the conspiracy was revealed, but she ended up in tears. T^T, the young lovers should figure it out by themselves.
I still want to say that the second male lead is too miserable, and he must live a good life in the future, 99
