Universally Hated, Yet Relentlessly Pursued by a Heartthrob

Coming soon: *A Beauty B, but He Tops His A-Boss*. Synopsis below. Please add it to your collection! [The universally disliked top x the universally adored bottom] Ye Congyin once had a life filled with a loving family and friends who admired him. But after the so-called older brother appeared, his life quietly changed. His father decided he was jealous and narrow-minded. His roommate called him a rich second-generation kid who used his money to get away with anything. His childhood friend even testified against him personally, branding him a plagiarist. His family loathed him, his friends distanced themselves, and his classmates ignored him. Even strangers seemed to regard him with inexplicable malice. He tried to explain, but it was all in vain. Then his mother, who had been in a vegetative state, suddenly passed away, and he had a dream. In the dream, he was the universally despised villain in a book: handsome on the outside but rotten within, malicious, ignorant, and uneducated, there to make the four universally adored protagonists shine. After waking, he let out a quiet sigh and chose to leave the place where all the trouble was. After Ye Congyin left, the lives of the universally adored ones didn’t seem to change much, until the truth about the past gradually came to light His roommate, now a famous actor, lay in a hospital bed and begged him to stay, abandoning all dignity. “I misunderstood you back then. Please, give me a chance to make it right.” His dog-allergic older brother braved the pouring rain, holding a puppy much like the one from their past, and knocked on the door to apologize. “I did a lot of things wrong because I was a coward… Is there still a chance to make things right?” His childhood friend, with whom he was nearly estranged, was willing to ruin his own future just to restore Ye Congyin’s good name, even if it was years too late. Even his father, who had regarded him as a disgrace, wept openly and, sick and frail, begged him to come home. Ye Congyin: “No. There’s no chance. I don’t need it. I’m not coming back.” * A quiet retirement spent painting and playing with dogs is wonderful. His kind and beautiful neighbor is also wonderfully attentive, bringing him food on schedule and helping him through his troubles, while making his romantic interest unmistakably clear. But Ye Congyin doesn’t dare open his heart so easily. He knows that every good thing fate gives him will eventually leave him, without exception. He can’t bring himself to refuse Song Huaiyi’s advances, so he quietly waits for the day they’ll fall out. But not only does that day never come, he also learns Song Huaiyi’s secret “So, Song Huaiyi, you knew I didn’t remember you, and you knew the mountain I climbed was certain to have an avalanche. Yet you still went up there and pretended to run into me, gambling with your own life and that so-called ‘universal love interest halo’ just so I wouldn’t end up with frostbitten hands and die of depression like I did in the story?!” Song Huaiyi had no way to deny it, so he confessed. “Yes. But even if I could live it over again, I’d do the same thing.” “Congyin, I love you so much. How could I just stand by and watch?” Reader’s Guide: 1. Everyone except the bottom gets their comeuppance, and he absolutely never forgives them! 2. The bottom is head over heels for the top at first. They gradually become mutually attracted later on. ==Coming Soon: *A Beauty B, but He Tops His A-Boss*== Jiang Wanlou is an utterly ordinary beta office worker.

Jiang Wanlou (smiling faintly): “You didn’t like it?” Yu Xiaonian: “…” [Yu Xiaonian’s affection: exceeded the data limit and died] *The truth about that night* The rutting alpha clung to Jiang Wanlou’s waist like an octopus, whimpering and endlessly begging, “I like you,” “Help me,” and “Please.” He cried as he rubbed his fluffy head against the beta’s neck. Jiang Wanlou: “I won’t be the bottom.” Yu Xiaonian: “I will! I can…” Theme: Facing adversity, turn toward the sun and grow.
