Honest Person, But Delicate

[Next novel up for preorder: The Poor, Naturally Airheaded Straight Guy [Quick Transmigration]]

Blurb:

Xue Ci is mild-mannered, slow to catch on, and even-tempered, so he gets matched with the “Nice Guy” System.

System: [Don't worry, sweetie. Our missions are simple, and there's especially little romance!]

But in every world, Xue Ci gets caught up in romantic entanglements. The protagonist, who was originally focused on his career, says he wants to be with him, and even the other male characters and villains look at him strangely.

1. The Beta from the Countryside

[You're a Beta from the countryside, carrying an arranged marriage contract made by your ancestors to the protagonist's home. But he hates having his life arranged for him and refuses to honor the agreement made years ago.]

System: You've developed a need for physical contact, and the protagonist mistakes you for someone promiscuous.

Feeling miserable, Xue Ci carefully rubs his shoulder against his roommate's.

But the protagonist not only doesn't misunderstand, he inexplicably gets into a fight with the roommate. Then a message from an unknown number arrives on Xue Ci's phone

[Baby, which shoulder did he touch you with?]

2. The Missing Husband Returns

[You married the village carpenter and lived a quiet, honest life. Then, after a car accident, he regains his memories and turns out to be a rich young master from the city. His family looks down on you.]

System: You're afraid of being abandoned, so you want to make your marriage to your husband official in every sense.

That night, after Xue Ci has gone to bed, someone knocks on the door.

The travel-worn man rushes in and hugs him tightly. “Xiao Ci, it's been so long. I've missed you so much.”

But... wasn't his husband the one who'd suggested sharing a bed and being intimate all this time?

3. The Bridegroom Chosen to Bring Good Fortune

[Your elders choose the protagonist, whose birth chart is the best match in town, to marry you and bring you good fortune because you're sickly. He's ruggedly handsome and built like a tank, but unfortunately he's a simple-minded fool.]

[You have a white moonlight: the fool's dignified and refined older brother.]

System: You spent the night at the older brother's home.

Xue Ci wakes up to the sound of his foolish husband speaking anxiously outside.

“Big Brother, my wife cried so much last night and even wet the bed.”

“How can I make him feel better?”

Xue Ci hides under the covers in embarrassment.

He doesn't see the righteous older brother he regards as his white moonlight looking over with a dark, clinging gaze, as if he wants to take him apart and swallow him whole.

4. The Honest Office Worker Catfished Online

[You're devoted to your online girlfriend and spend all the money from your two jobs on her. At last, you manage to get her to agree to meet.]

System: You've been stood up. The other person is a man.

Xue Ci asks to meet him anyway.

He expects to be rejected, but a few minutes later he receives a message.

[My throat hurts lately, so I can't talk.]

[I'm ugly. Can we turn the lights off?]

[By the way, can I bring the cat ears and skirt you sent me?]

The Poor, Naturally Airheaded Straight Guy [Quick Transmigration]

He's the sort of unguarded, slow-witted straight guy who's so irresistible even passing dogs have to stop and sniff him twice.

While completing background-character missions in each world, he catches the attention of a bunch of crazy men.

They trick him into marriage and bully him, and they still want to date and marry him.

1. F4's Sidekick

[You're a sidekick to the F4 young masters, sharing a dorm with the protagonist, an illegitimate son. Your job is to pass messages and help the protagonist and the others go from sworn enemies to friends.]

System: The protagonist has been harassed lately and comes to you for help.

Chu Yun gets the harasser's number and tells him to stop. Instead, the man only escalates, demanding private photos and claiming Chu Yun dresses provocatively to seduce people.

Later, Chu Yun goes to meet the harasser in the protagonist's place, only to be held against a desk and kissed all night.

The young masters all go crazy and suggest pretending to be Chu Yun's boyfriend, getting more intimate with him to lure out the pervert.

2. The Sociable Beta

[You're a slum-dwelling Beta raising the orphaned child of a comrade. To pay the child's exorbitant tuition, you sweet-talk and ingratiate yourself with rich young women from high society.]

System: The wealthy men learn that you're cozying up to their sisters and torment you in every way.

Chu Yun follows the plot conscientiously. But the Alphas who were supposed to look down on him end up fighting each other, each desperate to leave their pheromones on the back of his neck.

Meanwhile, in the chaos, someone covers Chu Yun's mouth and drags him into an alley.

The orphan he's been raising, his only family, stares fixedly at the bite mark on the back of his neck, eyes red.

“I have money now.”

“Will you be with me?”

3. The Country Bumpkin

[You're a lazy, gluttonous country bumpkin in a period novel, mooching food and drink from the educated youths and shamelessly telling them you'll marry them, leaving them all lovesick. But as soon as you get your hands on some money, you run off to the city to find your first love, an older woman.]

System: You pack your bags and try to run away, but you're caught, and everyone in the village condemns you.

Chu Yun doesn't manage to escape. That night, in a cornfield so dense not a breath of air can pass through, he's driven to tears, whimpering softly, his body trembling and melting at the slightest touch.

The usually gentlest educated youth is like a demon now. “Who are you going to find? Didn't you say you'd be my wife?”

“Be good. You don't want people outside to hear you, do you?”

Later, the older woman who'd asked him for lots of pictures in her letters comes to the countryside to see him. He sneaks off to meet her, only to be stunned.

The person standing before him is a muscular man, a head taller than him.

4. The Only Straight Guy on a Variety Show

A minor idol who's been shelved for years gets the only gay role on a variety show. But by the end of the show, all the guests claiming to be straight have turned gay.

5. The Asian Sweetheart

A team manager needs the bonus, so he has no choice but to agree to every demand made by the captain.

He doesn't know that the towering football captain is best at tackling.

6. The Poor Office Worker

Trying to survive in a new world without any special abilities, the poor office worker can only endure being bullied again and again.
