Blurb:
At the Bureau of Anomalous Control, top fighter Bai Lin was ambushed and killed while on a mission. When he woke again, he had become Ruan Yu, a nobody on the bureau's fringes.
Known as a good-for-nothing and a nepotism hire, Ruan Yu's only redeeming feature was his face: exceptionally handsome, and somewhat similar to Bai Lin's original appearance.
Along with Bai Lin, a "Life Points Draw" System also awakened.
The System could prolong Bai Lin's life, but he had to draw a card before his life points reached zero again, then recreate what was shown on it.
Bai Lin opened the card pool interface shared by the System. The whole screen was covered in mosaics, and every card concerned another person:
Su Mingxiao, another powerhouse at the Bureau of Anomalous Control, and once his mortal rival.
Bai Lin: Say again what kind of System you are.
System: Draw a card every day and experience the thrill of being blessed with incredible luck!
Bai Lin stared at it without expression.
The System cleared its throat and corrected itself: Seduce your nemesis and immerse yourself in the fragrance of love!
Bai Lin fell silent. But only by staying alive could he find the person who had plotted against him, so he raised a hand and drew his first card.
Card One: At the victory banquet, attend in formal attire as Ruan Yu and "accidentally" spill champagne on Su Mingxiao's shirt.
Bai Lin was forced into a flamboyant formal outfit. Under everyone's watchful eyes, he walked up to Su Mingxiao and pretended to trip.
The glass brushed the man's throat. With a flick of his fingertips, the wine seeped into his clothes.
The task complete, Bai Lin tried to slip away, only to be suddenly pinned against the wall of a secluded corridor.
The man's warm breath brushed his ear, but his voice was frighteningly cold.
Su Mingxiao enunciated each word: "Don't use tricks like this on me while wearing that face."
Card Two: Before an operation to eliminate an alien species, see someone sneak into Su Mingxiao's equipment room and discover them putting something in his water cup.
Bai Lin crept into the room, but the suspicious person escaped using their supernatural ability. He picked up the tampered water and was about to pour it away when someone seized him and pressed him to the floor.
With the evidence caught red-handed, Su Mingxiao's suppressive pheromones bore down on him without warning. Bai Lin trembled, but while struggling, he touched the old injury at the man's waist.
Su Mingxiao fixed his eyes on him, then suddenly gave a mocking smile.
He pressed the cup to Bai Lin's lips. "If you want it so badly, why don't you drink it yourself?"
Card Three: In the infirmary, disguise yourself as medical staff to bandage Su Mingxiao's wound, then involuntarily lick the blood from his fingertip.
Card Four: In the conference room, sit beside Su Mingxiao of your own accord. Under the table, slowly hook your toe under his trouser cuff and rub your way inch by inch up his calf.
To stay alive, Bai Lin diligently completed his tasks, without noticing that Su Mingxiao's gaze was gradually changing.
At first, he had been intensely repulsed by Ruan Yu. Now, whenever Ruan Yu was around, his eyes seemed to follow him automatically.
One day, Su Mingxiao fell unconscious in an illusion created by a mental-type alien species. Bai Lin entered the illusion to rescue him, only to discover that the greatest nightmare trapping Su Mingxiao was none other than Bai Lin himself.
And the scene of the illusion was a wedding.
Before Bai Lin could even be shocked, Su Mingxiao pushed him down onto the wedding bed and pinned their fingers together.
The man's normally cold eyes were full of deep tenderness, glimmering with the pain and madness of having lost something and found it again.
He bent down and rubbed against Bai Lin's neck. His canine teeth grazed Bai Lin's gland as he asked softly:
"Bai Lin... may I mark you?"
Before Bai Lin could answer, the System's white light flashed before his eyes, and a new card appeared:
Sit in Su Mingxiao's lap of your own accord and let him touch your reproductive canal.
1. The widowed top who lost his beloved halfway through a secret crush and should be left alone by everyone x the naturally clueless bottom, terrifyingly strong but emotionally dense
White Wolf Alpha x Rabbit Omega
2. Younger top with a secret crush; both leads are each other's only partners. "Ruan Yu" is a body the System made based on Bai Lin; it did not exist before.
3. Modern alternate setting, devoted to a deliciously bittersweet melodrama. Includes pregnancy and a run-away-with-the-baby plotline; please avoid if that's not for you.
4. May not be suitable for readers with very strict preferences, qwq.
5. Blurb screenshotted on 2025.9.5.
