After school, Li Ye blocked Xin Xing's way and immediately offered him ten million yuan. The condition was that he break up with the most handsome guy in the class next door.
Xin Xing: ...?
When did I get a boyfriend? Why don't I know about it?!
From that day on, Young Master Li always seemed to "coincidentally" show up wherever Xin Xing was:
When some thugs cornered Xin Xing in an alley and started picking on him, the young master suddenly popped out of a nearby trash can! He drove the thugs off with a flurry of punches.
"I will never let anyone else have the chance to play the hero and rescue the beauty." The young master declared solemnly, a trash can lid on his head.
When someone was lying unconscious by the roadside, Xin Xing was about to go over when the young master suddenly appeared. "Wait! That's the abyss up ahead!" In the blink of an eye, he made a call and sent the person to a shelter for the homeless, then solemnly warned Xin Xing, "Don't pick up random men off the street. It'll bring you bad luck."
The young master even had something to say when a male cat approached Xin Xing. "What if it's a person who turned into a cat?" He then insisted on taking it to be neutered.
Xin Xing was horrified. What is wrong with the young master???
Li Ye had a dream that he was living in a melodramatic BL novel.
The novel was called Fallen Star. The protagonist, a bottom, was emotionally and physically abused by a whole gang of horrible men. With his heart turned to ash, he ended up dying in a tragic suicide pact with one of the scummy tops!
And Li Ye was the school bully, a disposable side character in the story. As soon as the protagonist and the scummy main top died together, his family would go bankrupt! His destined home would be under a bridge.
To avoid sleeping under a bridge, Li Ye tried every which way to stop the scummy tops from getting near the protagonist.
Since it was a multiple-love-interest story, Li Ye didn't know who the scummy main top was. Better to kill the wrong one than let the right one slip by, so he put every male creature who approached the protagonist on his watch list!
Finally, thanks to his efforts, he was the only guy left by the protagonist's side.
The protagonist gave him a complicated look. "Do you like me?"
Li Ye immediately panicked. "Who said that? Whoever likes you is a dog, okay?"
The protagonist: "Waaah."
Li Ye: "...Woof."

Pairing: A totally bewildered protagonist bottom × a young master top who's a devoted wife-lover. The top dotes on the bottom. Probably a silly, sweet story with a bit of an absurd vibe~
