The Protagonist's Two Love Interests Ran Away!

As he lay dying, Yan Yunqing finally learned that he was one of the potential love interests in a reverse-harem novel where readers voted on the endgame. In the story's ending, the protagonist chose Liang Shanyue, his childhood friend who had always been by his side, while Yan Yunqing died in a car crash on his way to interrupt their wedding. When Yan Yunqing opened his eyes again, he was back at the banquet where the protagonist, Xu Shijing, and Liang Shanyue had reunited. He found Liang Shanyue, who had not yet come into his own, and, carried away by rage, poured an entire glass of red wine over his head, humiliating him to the fullest. Meeting his icy gaze, Yan Yunqing leaned in close, his warm breath brushing Liang Shanyue's ear as he threatened, "Stay away from Xu Shijing. He's mine." Liang Shanyue grabbed his long hair with one hand, his pale gray eyes cold. "Is that so? How arrogant, President Yan." [Little Scene 1] As the protagonist of a reverse-harem novel, Xu Shijing had always known that the people around him had special feelings for him. They helped him, and he occasionally showed them some affection. They each got what they wanted. But one day, he noticed that the two people who liked him most were growing increasingly distant. His childhood friend, who had always cared for him and looked after him, began disappearing without a word. The CEO, who had been determined to win him back ever since he ended their contract, also stopped showing up. When Xu Shijing saw them again, he was filming a variety show. On a midsummer beach, the night breeze blew gently as he and the other guests strolled along the sand. They spotted a couple playing in the shallows. When he got a closer look, he realized it was Liang Shanyue and Yan Yunqing. Xu Shijing: Help! My two love interests rode off on a bicycle! [Little Scene 2] "Qingqing, kiss me." A warm body hugged Yan Yunqing from behind. He propped one hand on the edge of the sink with practiced ease, then reached back with the other to rub the head pressed against his neck. Coldly, he said, "You haven't brushed your teeth. No kiss." The head in his arms began nuzzling him. Yan Yunqing glanced sideways and saw Liang Shanyue looking up too, blinking those bright, sparkling eyes. Yan Yunqing: "..." In the end, Liang Shanyue got a kiss, on his eyelid. Check the tags to see if this is your thing: 1. Liang Shanyue x Yan Yunqing. A seemingly gentle, steady, scheming top x a seemingly arrogant, domineering, lovestruck bottom. Both are virgins; strong leads; 1v1. 2. Rivals in love become lovers, with a gradual relationship development. 3. They really did both like Xu Shijing, but they never dated. --Next book: "The Supporting Character's Guide to Revenge [Quick Transmigration]"-- Xin Jiu was the spirit of Immortal Venerable Yu Qing's natal sword. He worked diligently for his master for hundreds of years and was finally about to ascend and become a god, only for the System's main god to ambush them, steal Yu Qing's power, and tear his soul apart. Xin Jiu was also recruited as a new trainee Host. The System assigned to him assumed he would be resentful, but the cold sword spirit seemed to have no feelings for his former master and accepted every order from his current boss. So it confidently sent Xin Jiu off to begin his missions. Soon, the System realized it had been far too confident. In the first world, Xin Jiu became a servant who had been framed by a young master and died tragically in his previous life. System: You need to help the young master become the darling whom all the powerful figures keep close to their hearts. Xin Jiu: Okay. Afterward, the System watched as the powerful figures and the vicious young master reunited in the same prison cell, and was left speechless. In the second world, Xin Jiu became a gloomy nobody who was bullied at school. The System held on to a sliver of hope: You need to help the school bully and the top student get together and achieve a happy ending. Xin Jiu: Sure. In the end, the System watched Xin Jiu force the expelled school bully and the top student, whose cheating had been exposed, to confess their feelings to each other. Its eyes rolled back in despair. In the third world, Xin Jiu became a useless beta whose engagement had been broken off. The System was on guard: You just need to cling to the prince and show him how devoted you are. Don't do anything else. Xin Jiu: Fine. Six months later, the System watched the prince, who had once loathed Xin Jiu, declare that he would marry no one else. It was on the verge of tears. Xin Jiu became a notoriously difficult Host. The System went crying to the main god to complain, never expecting that before long, Xin Jiu would storm the main god's space with Yu Qing, with whom he had somehow secretly become involved. They cut off the System's path to reporting him at the source, and Xin Jiu became its new boss. System: ... I can't do this job anymore! Theme: Love deserves to be taken seriously.
