The Handsome School Prince Crashes and Burns in a Love Triangle

[Going VIP tomorrow, the 12th! A 10,000-word update, thanks for your support!]

In a city full of Celestial Dragons, Song Jiyun died.

He had a miserable upbringing, was buried in debt, and was oppressed by the Celestial Dragons. He endured a wretched life until the age of thirty. Only after being reborn at eighteen did he realize that the rich were all greedy bastards. Rather than let them lead him around by the nose, he might as well live for himself.

Just as in his previous life, Song Jiyun became a wealthy young master’s study companion to pay off his debts, ordered around like a punching bag. He was also prepared to be bullied by his other arrogant roommates. Instead, they acted strangely, brazenly clung to him, and tried desperately to be nice to him, all just to... make friends?

Song Jiyun only made friends with money. With people, he only knew how to say no.

He couldn’t wait for the rich young masters to get what they deserved, and loved watching them make fools of themselves. He mocked anyone who confessed to him and ignored anyone who fell on hard times. After living two lives, he had finally become the kind of villain he hated most.

“If the campus heartthrob scolded me, I’d be happy to eat him up.”

Overhearing this by chance, Song Jiyun finally realized they were talking about him.

The aloof campus heartthrob? Since when was that him?

The arrogant Celestial Dragons set up a game: whoever could make Song Jiyun willingly give in would be the winner at G University.

They racked their brains, only to discover that apart from money, he loved nothing.

Since the rules forbade them from throwing money at him, they strutted around like peacocks to get his attention.

For his sake, the rebellious young master got into fights, the elegant gentleman curbed his flirtatious ways, the cold school bully showed tenderness, and the scheming top student plotted every move. From beginning to end, Song Jiyun never once looked back.

Eventually, Song Jiyun dropped the act, flashing a lazy smile as the heartless beauty. “You want to pursue me? Sure. Give me money, lots and lots of money, more than I could ever spend. How about it?”

Song Jiyun pretended to give them his heart, leading those lust-struck bastards around by the nose. The moment he got their money, he walked away.

The pampered darlings who’d always had everything their own way went mad for him. They begged for ages, but could never get him to look back. Then Song Jiyun returned to the country after enjoying his freedom, like the return of an unattainable first love, and huge love-rival showdowns erupted everywhere.

He no longer hid his nasty nature. He trampled the pampered darlings underfoot, watching them go mad with love and compete fiercely in their careers, first falling for him through their own wishful thinking, then getting a reality check.

One man was so deeply calculating that he schemed until he finally turned dark, yet could only set aside his pride and beg in a low voice: “Help me, please.”

Before leaving the country, Song Jiyun partied hard. Drunk, he was pulled into someone’s arms in the darkness and kissed and fondled. After their night together, the other person vanished without a trace.

Song Jiyun investigated for a long time and learned only that the person had well-developed leg muscles and knew his body very well.

He’d thought there were five suspects, but it turned out there was a sixth.

If he finds them, he’ll make them suffer.

1. Multiple tops, a love-rival showdown, and a selfish, self-serving beauty bottom.

2. The bottom isn’t a virgin. Lighthearted tone.

3. Everyone’s a villain, but they all have their limits.

[Cool, prickly, catlike sickly beauty X younger, doglike, roguish obsessive]

Other people want a relationship that never ends.

Lin Shu, who has a psychological aversion to intimacy, wants a relationship without sex.

He was sickly as a child. His ex cheated on him, thinking his illness was incurable, so Lin Shu ended the relationship and decided never to have genuine feelings for anyone again.

Who knew that six months after the breakup, at the age of thirty, he’d find himself being pursued by a younger guy? The guy had an eight-pack, was sunny and athletic, and was exactly his favorite type of younger man.

After being love-struck at first sight, the young athlete pursued him for months. Lin Shu kept trying to make him give up, deliberately telling him his tastes were unusual. Wen Jiuli, with his puppy-dog eyes, said pitifully, “I don’t care. I only love you.”

“Your brother has so many pretty ladies in qipao around him,” the tall, muscular young man mumbled, wrapping his arms around Lin Shu’s slender waist.

“They’re here to learn the tea ceremony. Don’t get jealous over everything.”

“Then can you wear a qipao for me? I think... none of them are as pretty as you.”

Lin Shu’s last relationship had ended in failure, and he didn’t want to date again just yet. But the guy wouldn’t take no for an answer and was good at acting cute with his handsome, innocent face. Even just looking at him was a pleasure.

One day, while drinking away his troubles, Lin Shu got drunk, pretended to mistake him for his ex, and tested him. The other guy managed to keep his composure, so Lin Shu agreed to be with him.

His boyfriend was five years younger, considerate, and protective, but...

“Sorry, I don’t want to do that right now.”

“Okay, then we won’t.”

He didn’t even make up an excuse, just said he didn’t want to have sex. Wen Jiuli put up with even that. Could they really be a couple?

Lin Shu was starting to doubt his own appeal.

He kept wanting to break up, but couldn’t find a reason. His current boyfriend was good in every way. He’d pursued him for over six months, and after they got together, he never got angry no matter how unreasonable Lin Shu was. Even when Lin Shu deliberately brought up his ex, he only stayed silent.

In the end, Lin Shu couldn’t take it anymore. Before he could even bring himself to ask for a breakup, he ran away.

Years later, Lin Shu was living a free and comfortable life, doing fairly well for himself.

One night at a club, after someone harassed him, he turned to leave, only to be grabbed by a domineering “puppy” who made his legs go weak. The man stared at his slender neck, slick with a fine sheen of sweat, and said softly, “Where are you planning to run this time?”

Wen Jiuli had met Lin Shu long ago.

He was distant and cold, leaning against the doorway with his half-long black hair, smoking. Swirling white smoke blurred his exquisite, beautiful features, making him breathtaking. That image was forever imprinted on Wen Jiuli’s mind. Lin Shu became the man of his dreams and taught him how to get himself off.

Only, back then, he was still “Sister-in-law.”
