Name: The Silly Bottom Lost His Memory and Thought He Was a Scumbag Top
Author: Broken Sprout

Synopsis

[A preview of my next novel, The General, But Transmigrated as a Delicate Little Drama Queen]

Blurb:

Zhou Yisui had lost his memory, but quickly deduced that he had transmigrated into a book and was an irredeemable scum gong.

His deduction came from the “diary” on the bedside table when he woke up.

The first page was practically dripping with melodramatic-novel energy, and the protagonist was also named Zhou Yisui.

It all clicked in an instant!

This wasn’t his diary, and he wasn’t Zhou Yisui himself. This book was the original story of the world he’d transmigrated into.

In the original, he was a man who loved men, a notorious womanizer and scum gong.

He would have a tumultuous romance with a poor protagonist shou named Jiang Yousong.

And the reason it would be so tumultuous was that he was a scum gong!

At first, he would relentlessly flirt with and pursue the protagonist shou. But just when the protagonist finally fell for him and began opening his heart, he would lose interest and keep rubbing salt in his wounds.

Then, after the protagonist lost all hope and left him for good, he would realize how badly he’d messed up. But by then, it would be too late…

Much later, they would meet again. The once penniless protagonist shou would now be worth hundreds of millions.

Watching the unattainable love of his life from afar, Zhou Yisui would be consumed by regret. To win him back, the scum gong would put on a whole “cry, make a scene, threaten to hang himself” routine to get his wife back.

He closed the book, realizing he had to follow the plot. Otherwise, he might never be able to leave.

So Zhou Yisui, who couldn’t remember anything, hid the diary.

On the first day after leaving the hospital, he transferred to Jiang Yousong’s school and became his classmate.

Zhou Yisui: Great, everything’s following the plot. 😎👆🏻

When they first met, he saw a boy in the corner who was obviously being ostracized. Jiang Yousong really did have the sort of face the book described, one that could make girls swoon.

He also looked like nobody could push him around, with an all-over, too-cool-for-this-world B-king vibe.

But Zhou Yisui knew that he was often cornered and extorted in the school bathrooms after class, and that his delicate constitution left him sick every few days.

As the scum gong in the early part of the story, Zhou Yisui naturally volunteered to sit beside Jiang Yousong. Despite the teacher’s repeated questions and his classmates’ hesitant expressions, he strode straight toward that corner without wavering.

Jiang Yousong, who had been enjoying his peaceful little study nook, looked up at the person walking toward him. The guy wore a cocky, roguish grin that was sunny, ingratiating, and stupidly cheerful. Jiang Yousong instinctively tightened his grip on his pen.

From that day on, their classroom corner was filled with shocking bits of dialogue

“Song-song, studying so hard must be exhausting. Come lie in my arms for a while~”

“Song-song, you’re so aloof. Want to come watch comics in my bed tonight?”

“Song-song… Song-song…” “Snap.”

At the end of his patience, Jiang Yousong snapped his pen in half, pinned the guy beside him against the wall, and kissed him. At last, he got a moment of peace.

To stay true to the original and keep the plot on track, Zhou Yisui soon entered the “I’m bored of you” phase

One day, he told Jiang Yousong he was tired of playing with him and that from then on, they should never have anything to do with each other again.

Jiang Yousong: …

One day, after thinking he’d completed his mission, Zhou Yisui accidentally flipped to the last page of the diary

At the bottom of the page, a name was scrawled: Zhou Jianjian.

Huh? This was actually a fanfic written by his little sister, Zhou Jianjian?!! 😱😱😱

Meanwhile, Jiang Yousong was still wondering what Zhou Yisui was up to now when he suddenly caught sight of the guy, who had been gone for only two days, sneaking back and climbing through his window.

“…”

He thought: There is seriously something wrong with his brain.

And yet, the very next second, he pulled the guy with the supposed brain problem in through the window and into his arms.

A goofy, amnesiac shou with a bizarre thought process, who mistakenly thinks he’s transmigrated into a book and flirts shamelessly

VS

A cool, aloof, top-student gong who only wants to study, but gets so thoroughly distracted by his ridiculously flirtatious shou that he has no choice but to put him in his place

*Note: There are no fantasy elements. The entire story takes place in the shou’s overactive imagination.

My next novel: The General, But Transmigrated as a Delicate Little Drama Queen

Blurb:

After his sincere love was misplaced in his previous life, the great general Ji Qingyan was executed along with his entire family. He then transmigrated into the body of an entertainment-industry actor who shared his name.

The internet was full of bizarre videos his antis had edited of him. This attention-seeking flop never seemed to go away.

His agency had built him a helpless, delicate persona and even booked him a spot on a travel variety show.

Then, right in front of the cameras, he split a ten-pound stack of firewood with one blow.

His teammates: …

His antis: …

The average netizen: You call that helpless and delicate?

When his manager warned him, Ji Qingyan let it go in one ear and out the other. Right after that, he twisted the arm of a passing thief and marched him straight to the police station.

The people who’d lost their belongings: …

His teammates: …

The manager who’d just threatened him: *gulp.jpg*

#Help! That drama queen stopped acting up and suddenly got so manly~#

Ji Qingyan didn’t understand the ins and outs of modern society, and he couldn’t care less about the changing public opinion online.

He had no worldly ambitions. Once he became famous and had enough money to live on, he chose to retire from the spotlight.

Weibo exploded almost immediately.

“Please, Ji Qingyan, come back!!”

“I admit I was kind of putting on an act before, but bro, the entertainment industry can’t go on without you!!! We were wrong!”

“Bro, come back already! Without you, I’m like a fish out of water!”

But despite the pleas of netizens and fans, Ji Qingyan continued to ignore them.

Just when everyone thought they’d never see Ji Qingyan in the public eye again,

a guest on a dating show accidentally wandered into a villa owned by a certain movie star. The guests were happily showing off their affection for one another on camera.

Suddenly, a lazy voice came from upstairs: “Xiao Shiye, did you wash my underwear? I’m out of clean pairs.”

Everyone looked up at once and saw Ji Qingyan, who had been missing for ages, dressed in a loose, rumpled set of pajamas.

His collarbones were covered in tiny red marks. His long hair fell over his shoulders, his eyes were alluring and flushed, and he looked down at them like a king surveying his subjects.

Everyone lost it.

#Xiao Shiye, how dare you keep him all to yourself!!!#

Weibo exploded all over again!

“I knew Xiao Shiye was looking at my wife funny during that travel show!!!”

“What kind of decent man is so delicate and weak he needs someone else to take care of him all the time? Ji Qingyan, don’t let him fool you!!”

“Xiao Shiye, you’re a real dog!!!”

“If the guest hadn’t gone to the wrong place, we’d have been kept in the dark forever!!”

Meanwhile, on camera, Xiao Shiye was sprawled against Ji Qingyan’s chest, reading the trending comments. He couldn’t stop grinning, and his voice was dripping with faux innocence: “Gege, they’re accusing me unfairly.”

Ji Qingyan paused, then patted his back to comfort him. “It’s okay. I believe you.”

Later, to comfort Xiao Shiye, Ji Qingyan reluctantly logged into Weibo again and posted a clarification:

“Shiye didn’t deceive me. Don’t misunderstand him.”

The guests standing nearby watched Ji Qingyan get completely taken in by Xiao Shiye: “…”

They were grinding their teeth to dust.

A few minutes later,

#Xiao Shiye, You Green-Tea Schemer#

#Ji Qingyan, You’re Way Too Easy to Fool#

#The Dating Show Guests Have It Rough#

and other topics shot up the trending list.

They stayed there for three days and three nights.

A pure-hearted, laid-back beauty of a general, shou

VS

A scheming, green-tea movie star, gong

Check out my friend’s novel, Becoming the Spoiled Male Concubine of a Feudal Patriarch, by Gan Cheng Pao Fu

Blurb:

[A growing-up slice of life | Pure brotherly affection until he’s grown]

[Beautiful, spoiled, entitled shou VS feudal patriarch of a regent gong]

1.

A male concubine: the lowest of the low in the households of Great Zhou’s aristocracy.

He could only depend on the head of the household for his entire life, to be toyed with, sold, traded, and passed from hand to hand. Most ended up as male companions in brothels.

If someone’s son was sold as a male concubine, the family would be disgraced for the rest of their lives!

Jiang Yan was sold.

To curry favor with the current emperor and the crown prince and save his crumbling dukedom, Duke Rui sold his illegitimate youngest son, Jiang Yan, to the ninth prince, Xiao Yu, as a male concubine.

Jiang Yan was only three years old that year.

2.

The thirteenth year of the Jiatai reign.

The ninth prince, Xiao Yu, was demoted and sent to the northwest as a military inspector after someone called him “a father-killing demon reincarnated.”

That winter, the thirteen-year-old prince left the capital in disgrace, taking along the male concubine he’d been forced to accept, who still wet the bed.

He was gone for ten years.

No one expected Xiao Yu to not only survive the barbarian tribes invading the border, but to repeatedly defeat the enemy forces and terrify the surrounding tribes and smaller kingdoms. His exploits became the stuff of hellish legends.

When news reached the capital, everyone both revered and feared him!

They all said that the ninth prince really was a demon reincarnated. His male concubine was so young and small; Xiao Yu must have played with him until there was nothing left of him.

3.

The first year of the Chunhua reign.

Only three years after Emperor Jiatai’s death, the new Emperor Longchang also passed away. The infant Emperor Chunhua, not yet a year old, ascended the throne.

Xiao Yu, who had once been forbidden from ever returning to the capital, had become a regent with a million troops at his command. The court welcomed him back in grand style.

As for the male concubine the previous emperor had bestowed upon him…

Some said Xiao Yu was bloodthirsty and had probably killed the boy as target practice for his soldiers.

Some said Xiao Yu was lustful and had likely played the boy to death in his military tent.

Others said the army had once been short on funds, so Xiao Yu and his men had grown tired of the boy and sold him to foreign merchants to pay for military provisions…

So when everyone heard that Xiao Yu had immediately held a lantern festival for the male concubine after returning to the capital, they all rushed to see the spectacle. Jiang Yan’s father, Duke Rui, also went, full of uncertainty.

The lantern festival was packed with people.

Jiang Yan’s father asked, “Where is that male concubine?”

The people around him said, “Huh? You didn’t see him? He’s riding on the regent’s shoulders!”

From that day on, everyone in the capital learned that Jiang Yan wasn’t some lowly male concubine at all.

He was Xiao Yu’s precious little darling, raised like a living ancestor and pampered in the palm of his hand by a man who had been his father, mother, and big brother all in one!
