Chen Cheng hasn't worked since graduating, yet he can stay home and play games every day. His friends all think he's a rich second-generation kid, but in reality, ever since he turned eighteen, he's had a part-time job that doesn't require him to use anything below the neck: playing scum gongs in melodramatic BL novels.
Living in a huge mansion, enjoying beautiful lakeside views, and getting to enjoy cute young men (the shou protagonists) for free: could life get any better?
It could! His part-time job lets him freely travel between different old-school novels. One cute guy isn't enough? He gets five at a time!
Under these circumstances, he fell completely into a life of decadence, spending every day in the arms of five handsome men.
Who could have guessed that one day his part-time job would become full-time, and the novels would descend into reality? While everyone else was busy saving the world, he was busy escaping the five-man battleground for his affections.
Shou Number One, the cold and domineering CEO, makes him clock in every day. Back when he was just pretending to work, it was such a joy. Now, getting out the door at seven every morning is pure agony.
Shou Number Two, the gentle teacher, is always trying to tutor his eighteen-year-old self. Every time he goes out, he's not going to work; he's going to cram for the college entrance exam with the Five-Year College Entrance Exam, Three-Year Simulation workbook.
Shou Number Three, the frail white moonlight, turns into a little green tea. Whenever he sees Chen Cheng about to leave, he coughs up blood, timidly pleading, "Don't leave me." But if you're sick, go see a doctor! Modern medicine is really advanced!
Shou Number Four, the wandering artist, is a master of disappearing and reappearing, always popping up in unexpected places and loudly announcing that he's found his one and only muse.
Shou Number Five, the esports prodigy, is well-behaved enough. After finishing his daily practice matches, he helps Chen Cheng rank up his high-level account. But on the night he wins the championship, he pulls a huge stunt and publicly announces their relationship.
#ThankYouMyLoverChenCheng shoots straight to the top of the trending list.
The moment Chen Cheng sees the trending topic while scrolling on his phone, before he can toss it aside, the CEO holding him in his arms shoots him a murderous glare.
"Is he an ex, too?"
"Uh... uh..." Chen Cheng lowers his head guiltily.
Could it be that, just maybe, he's actually a current boyfriend?

Warnings:
1. The romantic arrows fly in every direction. Even borrowing arrows with straw boats pales in comparison. But the ending is one-on-one.
2. Every shou is great at cooking, because Orange Baby, aka the king of living off others, loves to have his cake and eat it too.
3. The gong pouts, clings, cries, and throws tantrums. The future is promising. Together, with the shous as devoted gong-spoilers, everyone has a beautiful future.
4. Meme-heavy writing (possibly with stale memes), with a little bit of slapstick, but not much.
