The System said: “You only need to help the male lead grow, and then you can come back to life. There are plenty of roles to choose from: this one is the white moonlight, this one is the golden finger, this one is the savior, and this one is…”
Before it could finish, Qing Xiangnan was already in tears. “Why don’t you just let me die? I really can’t handle jobs where I have to suffer.”
The System carefully studied Qing Xiangnan’s face, as if it had reached a decision. “You could just play yourself.”
Qing Xiangnan: “Huh?”
“As the saying goes, ‘When Heaven is about to place a great responsibility on someone, it first tests their resolve, tires their muscles and bones, starves their body, deprives them of their resources, and frustrates their efforts. In this way, it strengthens their mind and nature and makes up for what they lack…’”
The System spoke with a grave expression.
“Surely, under your torment, the protagonist will make tremendous progress and improve at an astonishing pace.”

【The Infinite-World Novel’s Fussy Boyfriend】
Qing Xiangnan is the male lead’s fussy boyfriend. He threatens to break up countless times and has a full-blown princess complex.
The male lead is an infinite-world player who keeps vanishing without warning and suddenly reappearing, plagued by paranormal events. He runs for his life while doing everything he can to message Qing Xiangnan.
Qing Xiangnan knows all about it but has no sympathy. While Kawabata Yasunari watches the crabapple blossoms at four in the morning, Qing Xiangnan stays up until four watching the male lead’s… well, you know.
“You don’t love me at all! I called you at four and you let it ring three times before picking up! You missed three of my calls last month! We’re breaking up, you bastard!”
The male lead wiped his face and calmly replied, “Baby, I didn’t. Let me explain…”
Qing Xiangnan: “Fine! Get a taxi to my building right now, and write me a three-thousand-word apology while you’re at it. If I catch you copying it from the internet, you’re dead!”
Later, Qing Xiangnan also gets dragged into the infinite world. Even in a bizarre world, he insists on taking a bath, using the toilet, and sleeping somewhere other than a crowded dormitory. Even when a city is surrounded by evil spirits, he insists that his feet hurt and demands to be carried and cuddled instead of walking. Even when his brain is missing, he keeps trying to get himself killed
But the male lead gives in to every demand.
【The Interstellar Novel’s Male Lead’s Fiancé】
Qing Xiangnan is engaged to the Empire’s crown prince. His identity is forged, the engagement was secured through deception, and his spoiled behavior is at two hundred percent.
When the truth finally comes out and Qing Xiangnan is waiting to be punished, he sees the crown prince crumple the denunciation letter and look at him with a half-smile.
His adoptive older brother steadies him from behind and comforts him with concern. “It’s all right, Qingqing. Don’t be scared…”
“Let go,”
the crown prince says.
“Do you think I only just found out the truth?”
【The Entertainment Novel’s First ‘Girlfriend’】
Qing Xiangnan is the future entertainment mogul’s first girlfriend. After marrying the male lead, he refuses to settle down and keeps thinking about pursuing a career of his own.
The entertainment mogul pushes up his glasses.
“Baby, have you heard this little story? Grandma was upset that Grandpa still had a pension even after retiring, while she didn’t, so she got a street-sweeping job. But she couldn’t get up in the morning, so Grandpa started getting up at five to sweep the streets for her…”
Qing Xiangnan gives him a sidelong look. “Three, two, one. If you don’t do it, I’ll find someone else!”
Qing Xiangnan, nickname Qingqing.
An honorary mentor assigned to the male-lead development program at the quick transmigration bureau. He’s determined to torment the male leads, wear them down, and push them to succeed… then take a glorious exit from each world at the right moment.
But no matter how difficult he is, why do the male leads never get angry? They even seem to enjoy it…
One-on-one. A spoiled beauty shou × male lead gong. It’s the same person in every world, not multiple versions of the gong.
(Don’t feel sorry for the gong. To borrow two lines from my ship: 1. Male lead: Qingqing doesn’t torment anyone but me, so he must care about me. 2. You’ll never understand the painstaking effort Qingqing puts into making her husband a success.)
(The passage about strengthening the mind and nature is a quotation. “You should be like a bird” is a quotation. The grandpa story is from the internet. Kawabata Yasunari and staying up to watch the male lead are also references. “I’m afraid you’ll lick my hand if I slap you” is a meme I came across online.)
Theme: You should be like a bird flying to your mountain.
