The Purehearted Top Scholar Becomes a Heartthrob on a Dating Show

Bai Chuqiu was graceful and talented in life, the top scholar personally selected by the emperor.

But after transmigrating into a book, he finds himself in the role of a cannon-fodder simp on a dating reality show.

The original owner flirted with everyone, leaving a trail of broken hearts and pursuing several people at once.

He stole the doctor's white shirt after the doctor had worn it, sneaked into the top male model's room in the middle of the night to touch his abs, and gazed longingly at the abstinent movie star...

Bai Chuqiu is horrified and buttons his loose shirt all the way to the collar. "...This is simply an affront to proper manners!"

The haters notice that Bai Chuqiu, who used to follow the male guests around the show every day, seems to have finally changed his ways.

He no longer chases after anyone. Instead, he quietly leafs through obscure old books, writing each character in an elegant hand.

But as soon as he stops chasing them, the male guests all go crazy.

The usually stern doctor clutches the shirt Bai Chuqiu took off, his face full of longing. "His scent haunts my dreams."

The top male model sneaks into his room in the middle of the night, wearing nothing but a bath towel and showing off his powerful abs. "My cat just learned to do a backflip. Want to come see?"

The abstinent movie star has bloodshot eyes. He grits his teeth and corners Bai Chuqiu. "Didn't you say you only loved me?"

Bai Chuqiu looks at them all as if they are hopeless students, then starts a lecture on the dating show. "Love is a worldly distraction!"

But as soon as he turns around, a pair of long arms pulls him into an embrace.

The powerful man rumored to be heartless holds him close. There is a bright red kiss mark on his neck. "I kissed you last night. Are you saying you won't take responsibility?"

Bai Chuqiu blushes and shakes his head, then nods. His voice is as faint as a mosquito's buzz. "Of course I'll take responsibility..."

It's just that he probably won't be able to find a bridal sedan chair big enough for a 190-centimeter bride on the street...
