“Why are you still mad at me? You should be grateful that someone as boring as you got to be toyed with by me.”
Xin Guo was a new employee at the Time-Space Administration. He was assigned the role of “ruining the relationship between the main couple” and tossed into a series of small worlds.
Xin Guo was pretty, affectionate, and sweet-tongued. He could get away with harmless little misdeeds without annoying anyone, and he could reel in a protagonist every time.
He successfully drove deeply devoted protagonist couples apart for good.
Then the System came to pick up the new recruit and saw the small worlds Xin Guo had wrecked. Its vision went black.
Only then did Xin Guo learn that his role was supposed to face-slap the protagonists by proving how unshakable their love was, not actually make them break up.
There was nothing for it but to start over.
Xin Guo said that was fine. He was willing to return to the small worlds and make up for his mistakes.
But there was another piece of bad news: the other protagonist, the one who’d been cheated on, had been reborn.
Xin Guo felt doomed. To stay alive in the small worlds, he wished he could walk along the wall every day and make himself as inconspicuous as possible.
Even so, the legitimate partner still came looking for him.
Xin Guo hugged himself pitifully. “What will it take for you to leave me alone?”
The legitimate partner’s gaze passed over Xin Guo’s innocent, pretty face. He casually lifted Xin Guo’s delicate chin. “Get together with me. I want him to know what it feels like to be cheated on.”
Xin Guo didn’t think that was a good idea.
After all, in his previous life, he’d taken on the toughest challenges to make his performance numbers look good.
He’d seduced the most ill-tempered protagonists.
If someone like that got cheated on, Xin Guo would get beaten to death.
Unfortunately, his objections were overruled.
The legitimate partner sneered. “You seduced him in your last life because you thought I looked easy to bully, and that even if I got cheated on, I’d just swallow my anger and put up with it, didn’t you?”
Xin Guo: ...
Wow, he’d actually figured it out.
World One: village belle with White Knight Syndrome × pure-hearted rich young heir from a childhood-sweethearts story
The rich young heir grew up alongside his childhood friend, who had been taken in by his family after going bankrupt. As adults, they were unfortunately kidnapped and dumped in the mountains. Thanks to their rapport and his own cleverness, the rich heir managed to save himself and also rescued Xin Guo, who had been trafficked years earlier.
But Xin Guo repaid kindness with betrayal. He not only failed to thank the rich heir, he also stole his childhood friend.
Reborn, the rich heir had a sinister look in his eyes, but his voice was eerily gentle. “His family went bankrupt, so you felt sorry for him. I’m starved for love. I don’t want money, I want lots of love. Will you give it to me?”
World Two: social climber × refined empress from a founding-era story
The empress’s family was the foremost scholarly clan. To end the people’s years of wandering and displacement, they backed a former imperial descendant who had become a country bumpkin. To show they had no ambition to plunge the world into chaos, they made their legitimate son the male empress.
But Xin Guo, who had once looked down on the emperor for having no power or influence, changed his mind. He made a scene until he was made a noble consort in the new dynasty.
Reborn, the empress’s gaze traced Xin Guo’s charming face like a blade. “You know who put him in power. Now you know who to curry favor with, don’t you?”
World Three: chubby baby in his oral phase × gloomy stand-in from a wealthy-family story
The stand-in had spent years enduring the old man who treated him as a replacement. Once the old man finally died, he planned to marry his stepson, who had suffered just as much, and split the inheritance. He even took the old man’s first love’s son under his wing out of pity.
But Xin Guo insisted on getting together with the stepson, disregarding all those years of affection from the stand-in who had raised him.
Reborn, the stand-in floored the gas pedal that very day and drove straight at the stepson, who was returning from abroad for the funeral. His voice sent a chill through the air. “Baby, you’re next. Now tell me, who do you want to be with?”
World Four: blood-phobic child bride × feudal elder brother from a Republican-era story
Born cold and unloved by his parents, the elder brother later had a lively, cheerful younger son. He lavished all his love on the boy, but the younger son was frail and needed a child bride for good fortune. The elder brother went to great lengths to find one, and the two brothers reconciled.
But Xin Guo had been raised by the elder brother since childhood and thought of him as his husband. When the younger brother returned from studying abroad, he was furious, and fell out with the elder brother.
Reborn, the elder brother looked over the children awaiting selection, then pointed to one beside Xin Guo. “Would you be willing to become my younger brother’s child bride?”
World Five: touch-starved young heir × gruff, devoted admirer from an entertainment-industry story
By a stroke of luck, the gruff man became famous for an art-house film, then vanished without a trace. His agent urged him to find a rich patron. The patron was handsome, wealthy, and treated the gruff man with respect.
But Xin Guo used his status as the patron’s friend’s younger brother to form a clique and relentlessly ostracize the gruff man, insulting him at every turn.
Reborn, the gruff man relied on his memories of his past life to land roles in a string of hit projects. He became famous and one of the industry’s big shots. Teasingly, he said, “Young master, who sent you to my bed? He’s so naughty.”
World Six: Omega with S-class pheromones × Enigma who second-differentiates in an ABO story
A Beta held technology the Empire feared. The Federation arranged for its youngest and most formidable Alpha general to marry him and protect him.
But Xin Guo relied on the Alpha’s mother’s affection to move into the Alpha’s house openly, repeatedly claiming he was the Alpha’s intended daughter-in-law and putting down the quiet, plain-looking Beta at every turn.
Reborn, the Beta underwent a second differentiation and became an Enigma. He tempted Xin Guo: “You’re an S-class Omega. An ordinary Alpha isn’t good enough for you.”
World Seven: pretty, spoiled troublemaker × sickly older brother from a twins story
The sickly older brother was deeply jealous of his lucky younger brother. When his parents suggested that he honor the betrothal his grandfather had arranged before his death, he mocked them: Why not give their beloved younger son the match instead? The younger brother always gave way to him. Eventually, the older brother would have realized that his parents’ favoritism wasn’t his brother’s fault and forgiven him.
But Xin Guo was sweet and pretty, and the younger brother, who had been healthy, now had an adorable little spouse too.
Reborn, the sickly older brother heard his parents offer him the betrothal again. He obediently smiled. “My younger brother graduated from a prestigious university and started his own company. I’ve accomplished nothing, so I’m more suited to staying home and getting married.”
World Eight: snobbish adopted younger brother × aloof young master from a campus story
The young master asked his parents to adopt Xin Guo as his younger brother. Though Xin Guo was wicked by nature, the young master’s guidance kept him out of serious trouble. Even when it came time for an arranged marriage, the young master intended to bring Xin Guo along, the younger brother he’d doted on since childhood.
But Xin Guo’s displays of honesty and kindness to the outside world made his arranged-marriage partner, who was pretending to be poor, fall in love with him.
Reborn, the young master decided to let things take their course. He watched coldly as Xin Guo called his plainly dressed arranged-marriage partner a pauper, making no attempt to stop him. “Guoguo, it’s time to come home for dinner.”
World Nine: rebellious adopted younger brother × straight adopted older brother from a livestreaming story
The older brother raised Xin Guo while chasing attention in his livestreams with vulgar, shameless content.
But Xin Guo bit the hand that fed him, complaining that the bowl was dirty after eating from it and calling his adopted brother tacky. He said he liked men.
Reborn, the adopted older brother worked hard to put on a gay smile. “Guoguo, your big brother is a fashionable gay man now.”
World Ten: nephew with separation anxiety × older man from a marriage-first, love-later story
To acquire a company, the older man even got engaged to one of his young nephew’s classmates.
But Xin Guo got attached to this future aunt-by-marriage. Their feelings grew over time, and Xin Guo was willing to defy the older man to be with his aunt-by-marriage.
Reborn, the older man relented. “Don’t date so young. I can set aside two hours every day for you to cling to me.”
Extra: nephew with a weak constitution × hot-tempered actor uncle from a second-chance romance, first life
Xin Guo pounded the table in anger. “Why is nobody following the script?”
System: You can choose to fight back.
Xin Guo, sniffling: I can’t.
System: ...Then you’ll just have to deal with it.
