[This story underwent a major rewrite early on. If you were reading the previous version and can't get used to the changes, I'm truly sorry, but please don't yell at me (I'm a coward).]
Chu Suiyun was a man of extraordinary grace and dazzling talent. Unfortunately, he had terrible luck and had hardly any peaceful days in his life. At long last, he found someone he loved deeply and who loved him in return, only to die on an ordinary trip to court, the day before they were supposed to marry.
He thought that was already hard enough to stomach, but then things got even worse. A little thing claiming to be a Cannon Fodder System latched onto him and insisted he become its Host. Its reason was: since he was so unlucky, he was sure to make a good cannon fodder.
Chu Suiyun nearly lost the refinement expected of a gentleman and resorted to more than just verbal abuse. But... the System was offering far too much QAQ. To fulfill his dream of going home to marry the person he loved as soon as possible, he gritted his teeth and agreed.
But... why does the male lead have the exact same face as the person I love, and why does he cling to me the moment he sees me?!
After successfully completing the System's staged-death mission, Chu Suiyun floated in midair, frowning as he watched the plane's male lead sobbing at his grave.
"Can't I make up some excuse and go back? Your System must have a way!"
"No, Host. That would violate the rules. Besides, finish your mission quickly so you can go back and see the real person! This is only a fragment!"
Chu Suiyun steeled himself and turned away, not daring to look back. "You're right. Let's hurry up and go."
But the next second, before the protagonist could even collapse from crying, Chu Suiyun had already flown back and caught him in his arms.
The System floated in midair, silently staring at Chu Suiyun, who stared back just as silently.
After a few seconds, Chu Suiyun said, "You're right, but he cried himself unconscious. If you don't figure out a way to deal with this, I'll report you."

Reading Guide:
1. Some arcs may be angsty, and not every world is guaranteed a sweet ending (perhaps). The overall ending is happy.
2. One-on-one romance; the shou is always the same person!
3. Important: gong protagonist!
4. There's no number four. Enjoy!

As a veteran Host at the Quick Transmigration Bureau, Qi Suian was once again assigned to resolve some tricky problems.
Unfortunately, the Hosts he took over were usually sickly types who could barely walk three steps without gasping for breath. Of course, that wasn't a big problem for Qi Suian. His own body might have been in even worse shape, and he was used to it.
The real trouble was... his predecessors had usually left him with a mess. Influenced by the protagonist shou, who had gone off the rails, they had become the so-called devoted second male lead, only to be used and discarded, left in such misery that they wished they were dead.
Qi Suian had no affection for the deranged, scum protagonist shous in these worlds and couldn't be bothered to get entangled with them.
To get out of this mess quickly, it looked like he'd have to take action at once.
But could someone explain why the villain, who seemed calculating, gloomy, and ruthless in the original story, was actually a cheerful, adorable golden retriever type?!
As the chosen one, the protagonist shou always believed the world should revolve around him. Take, for example, the devoted second male lead who was always following him around.
Since the guy had indeed helped him, he didn't mind tossing him a few crumbs.
But accepting his advances was out of the question. Sure, he was gentle, but with how he gasped for breath every three steps, he might not have long to live.
Who could have expected that one day the devoted second male lead would stop following him around entirely, and even seem to be avoiding him? And suddenly, nothing in his life went right.
To win him back quickly, he decided to be nice to him for a few days. Who could have guessed...
The villain, who was always causing him trouble, swooped into the devoted second male lead's arms. The second male lead wrapped an arm around his neck, and then the villain planted a loud kiss on his cheek.
With a beaming smile, he said, "Your admirer is great. He's mine now~"
The original shou looked at his devoted male lead with tears in his eyes, only to find him smiling indulgently as he stroked the villain's hair. "My boy is a handful. He loves to act cute, speaks his mind, and gets jealous easily. Please be understanding."
You! Call! This guy! Cute and clingy?! Straight-talking?!
Jin Huaifeng had always thought his man was like a gentle breeze that could easily blow away, or a wisteria flower that needed careful tending.
Even though his man's indulgence sometimes made his heart race, he had always done his best to restrain himself.
But... why is his sickly young master pinning him to the bed so he can't get up?!
Gentle, sickly gong * rebellious, proud shou
Theme: Cherish the person by your side.
Claw? Congratulations on Kaiwen!! I am actually the first!
Tsk, this system also bends the elbow outwards to deflect the frame.
According to the text, someone who came from amnesia suspects that Chu also has memories.
