My new novel, He Was Guilty of Abandoning a Puppy, a younger-gong danmei story, and Forum Post Collection are currently being serialized. The next novel will be When the Vicious Female Side Character in the Comic Wakes Up, a deliciously angsty, over-the-top love-triangle story. The blurb is below. If you like it, please add it to your collection~(*^▽^*)
Ji Tang is a nobody.
She is as much of a nobody as they come, either serving as background scenery or getting only one or two lines. Since she has so little screen time, she often has to play several roles at once, acting as a nobody in multiple novels. Her role-completion rate is a perfect 100%.
Like right now, when she's a maid in a wealthy-family melodrama, working for the domineering CEO. All she has to do is deliver her standard line, "Young Master has never smiled at anyone else like that," and she can clock out.
Then there's her role as the male lead's childhood friend in a revenge-and-torture novel. As soon as he's brought back home, she can make an early exit.
At the same time, she's an obscure actress in a face-slapping entertainment-industry power fantasy. All she has to do is ask the female lead a question on a variety show, and her job is done.
Finally, she's a classmate of the female lead in a sweet campus romance, part of the group that hoots and hollers whenever the leads get all lovey-dovey. Once they get together, she can graduate.
But one day, the System glitches. The worlds she's in suddenly begin to merge, and the invisibility buff it had stacked on her disappears. So...
The male lead of the wealthy-family novel discovers that there's suddenly a beautiful maid in his house. She's kind-hearted and sunny, too. The aloof CEO stops being aloof and follows her around, insisting on giving her a sea of flowers.
The male lead of the entertainment-industry novel discovers that the obscure actress in his cast is not only beautiful, but also a talented performer. She's a hidden gem. The arrogant film emperor stops being arrogant and comes down from his pedestal for love, asking her to star in the film he's directing.
The male lead of the campus novel discovers that his bookish senior is not only a top student, but also quite pretty, and secretly nursing a crush. The rough-and-tumble college guy turns considerate: when she's hungry, he rolls up his sleeves and cooks; when she's cold, he gently brings her more clothes.
The male lead of the revenge novel discovers that his childhood friend is popular. Now he has to get revenge while also guarding against rivals trying to steal her away. The gentle childhood friend turns possessive, and his revenge plans... [garbled text]
After a while, Ji Tang, who has been diligently doing her job as a tool character, realizes that the male leads are looking at her strangely.
But that's not even the scariest part. The scariest part is that they confess to her all at once.
Aloof CEO: She's the person who understands me best.
Arrogant film emperor: She's my muse.
Younger college guy: I love her.
Possessive childhood friend: She's my only light.
Ji Tang: ...?
Help!
She's trapped in a love-triangle showdown.
Reader's guide:
1. This is a 1v1 romance. At first, the female lead only cares about her tasks; she won't realize the male leads have feelings for her until the middle or later parts. The male leads are all very obvious about their feelings, and there's a touch of Mary Sue.
2. No real-life inspirations.
He Was Guilty of Abandoning a Puppy
A gloomy, scheming puppy gong x a shou who looks like a smug show-off but is actually gentle, soft-hearted, and oblivious
On an ordinary evening, the internet was set ablaze by a video.
In the video, tall, popular actor Zhou Keran corners another handsome actor, Wen Ningxu, against a wall, bracing one hand against it to stop him from leaving. Wen Ningxu simply gives him a calm look and straightens his collar. The tension between them is so thick it seems like they're about to come to blows.
The two were once part of a hugely popular CP. Then Wen Ningxu posted that their CP was fake and that it had all been for work, causing the pairing to spectacularly implode. It became a notorious case of failed publicity in the entertainment industry, and even led to a new contract clause forbidding either party in a CP from publicly revealing the truth.
Since then, netizens have periodically dragged them out for ridicule. Their fans regard each other as mortal enemies, and any encounter turns into a bloodbath. The two actors' relationship is so tense that it's a case of one or the other, and they have never appeared on the same stage again.
At first, netizens thought this was just an accidental encounter. Then they realized something was off: the two of them seemed to be getting serious.
-
Six years ago, the still-obscure Wen Ningxu landed a dual-male-lead drama. His co-star was a newcomer four years younger than him. Hoping to become famous, the two signed a contract to promote themselves as a couple.
To help them get into character and lay the groundwork for their future CP promotion, the production team and Wen Ningxu's company hit it off and came up with a big plan: the two would live together while filming.
Wen Ningxu wanted to curse out his boss for being crazy, but his wallet was empty, so he had no choice but to put up with it. As they spent time together, he gradually began to feel sorry for Zhou Keran, who had struggled in the industry from such a young age and suffered neglect. He couldn't help treating him like a little brother, never realizing he'd end up raising a little wolf cub.
After several months together, Wen Ningxu and Zhou Keran broke up abruptly.
-
After they reunite, Zhou Keran taunts him: "Have you been doing well since you left me?"
Wen Ningxu gives a mocking smile. The red at the corners of his eyes blooms in Zhou Keran's gaze like a gorgeous flower. He says, "What answer do you want to hear? Or should I ask whether you want me, the one who broke up with you and whom you hate, to be doing well or badly?"
Theme: Everyone is equal
I don't know why, it feels so cool and awkward at the same time. Oops, I feel like I was reading a movie about a male protagonist who was slapped in the face ten years ago. Help, I'm living in Bengbu.
My heart ached when I watched it. The heroine is so good. She is the most righteous among the many systematic novels I have read, and her coping style is the most like that of ordinary people. So I choked up while watching it. I really don't want her to get hurt.
There is always a wholesale feeling when several male protagonists are together. They always say the same thing and always look at each other [dog head]. It feels like everyone is the same except for their different personalities.
No, is this man finally getting slapped in the face by his looks? … Emmm
I feel the author's great intentions. Come on, come on. Although the bamboo horse smells so good, I really want to watch All because my daughter is so cute.
The male protagonist is Shen Yanqing, right? Because he is the only one whose plot is not so broken and he is the only one who knows the truest side of the heroine.
I'm so broken. I want to know if this is a stock buying article or if each male protagonist has a side story, because I really like them all.
I'm not saying that, there is quite a tacit understanding between the male protagonists, they know everything the other wants [bad laugh]
This routine is really vulgar and disgusting
Why is it this kind of plot where a hero saves a beautiful woman due to unspoken rules in a drinking game? Why not come up with something new and fast forward to the scene where the heroine puts on high heels and kicks the big pervert?
