Reborn as the Cannon Fodder Ex-Husband of a Villainous Male Insect [Insectoid]

Xiao An transmigrates into a book as the cannon-fodder ex-husband of a villainous male insect.

In the original story, Jian Qing is one of only two S-rank male insects. He is already powerful and has countless admirers, yet he remains devoted to the utterly useless protagonist, the male lead's love interest.

The protagonist has no interest in Jian Qing. To get revenge, Jian Qing marries the original Xiao An, one of his devoted admirers, out of spite.

The original Xiao An is an S+-rank female insect and the empire's third prince. He has a winning hand but willingly settles for being a backup choice. He even refuses to burden his male insect with mental stabilization, enduring the strain himself year after year until he finally dies from a mental breakdown.

After Xiao An dies, Jian Qing uses his fortune to shower gifts on the protagonist and uses his authority to suppress the male lead. In the end, the male lead, an obsessive and ruthless S-rank male insect, beats Jian Qing into a cripple. Brutal military female insects take turns abusing him, and his body is left to rot in the wilderness.

Realizing he's nothing more than a disposable tool, not even worth being called cannon fodder, Xiao An decides to stop holding back and do whatever he wants, picking fights with everyone and everything.

The precious male insect the original Xiao An couldn't bear to touch? He enjoys him day and night, while humiliating him at every turn.

The male insect can't withstand such intense exploitation and lies on the bed like a broken doll, played to pieces.

Xiao An: That's all it takes to wear you out? How boring.

Xiao An can only let the male insect off for a while and go looking for other entertainment.

The throne the original Xiao An didn't want to fight for? It's mine now.

The enemy nation the original Xiao An couldn't defeat? They can still surrender while there's time.

The love rival the original Xiao An didn't dare target? I'll give you a choice. You can pick the way you want to die.

At the new emperor's coronation, Xiao An presents the empress with a special gift.

The male insect takes it with trembling hands. Inside the box is a female insect's heart, still beating.

"You liked that female insect, so I brought you his heart."
