In every angst novel, whenever the protagonist bottom is tormented in body and heart by the protagonist top, a rich, high-quality supporting top always appears.
They give the protagonist bottom unconditional help and offer him a warm shelter when he's hurt. Then, when the protagonist top and bottom make up, they leave in disappointment. Some unlucky ones even end up suffering the protagonist top's brutal revenge.
Rather than supporting tops, perhaps there's a better term for these characters: unlucky tops.
The newly awakened unlucky tops have one response: Is something wrong with them? (Squints at phone like a confused old man on the subway.)
● 1. The hapless top who gets saddled with someone else's kid × the aloof, beautiful boss who presents as a Beta but is actually an Alpha bottom (ABO world)
Staring at the "first love" who had suddenly appeared before him, already several months pregnant, with a pitiful look in their eyes and an air of being on the verge of falling apart, the person said, "You used to love me so much. You'd surely accept me and my child, right?"
The hapless top tilted his head in confusion. "Me? Me? Do I really look like an idiot or what?"
Then he glanced at the beautiful boss beside him, who let out a cold laugh and fixed the other person with a sharp gaze.
The hapless top thought, I... I think I'm the one who's about to fall apart.
That night, the beautiful boss, usually an untouchable flower on a high peak in front of others, pinned him against the wall and lowered his eyes. "You want a child?"
Then the beautiful boss took his hand and pressed it to his own reproductive tract. His voice was low and husky. "Go deeper... Betas can get pregnant, too..."
● 2. The cold, ruthless senior disciple top, who'll do anything to get stronger × the arrogant, flamboyant young sect leader bottom, a hopeless romantic at heart (cultivation world)
After being heartbroken by their master, the younger disciple finally remembered how good his senior brother was and wanted to reconcile. "Senior Brother, I'm willing to form a bond with you."
But the senior brother remembered the person he'd already bonded with on a deeper level after an accident in a secret realm. He'd disliked them at first, but not long ago, they'd defied their sect and let their blood soak their crimson robes just to become his Dao partner openly and honorably.
The senior brother, expressionless: "I'm not interested, thanks."
● 3. The small-time star kept as a lover × the bad-tempered rich heir and patron (entertainment world)
A newcomer actor who didn't want to be just a kept canary, tried to juggle several relationships, and ended up making a humiliating mess of things: "Can you help me?"
The small-time star: Do I look like I can help you...?
When the bad-tempered young master heard the news, he said darkly, "I'm still wearing all that weird stuff you put on me. Just try saying yes to him."
● 4. The dashing swordsman, a hero NPC in a game × the gentle, domestic bottom with paralyzed legs (esports world)
A game streamer who wanted to divert attention after their relationship was exposed: "Can you pretend to be my boyfriend?"
Thinking of his gentle wife at home, baking little cookies.
The swordsman: I've got a wife. Don't even ask.
● 5. The ambitious top, determined to climb the ranks and change his status × the arrogant, spoiled, gullible heir to a Duke (historical world)
● 6. The rebellious stepson top in a stepmother romance × his lifelong nemesis bottom (modern world)
● 7. The poor top student forced to drop out × the disfigured, sinister bottom (modern rags-to-riches)
● 8. The spoiled, profligate rich second-generation top × the bottom who can't speak at first (school world)
● 9. More to come...
[Important Notes]
1. Episodic stories, one-on-one couples, top-focused quick transmigration.
2. The top and bottom belong to each other in body and heart.
3. The protagonists are all my precious darlings. Please don't insult them for no reason~
4. Jiang Ce is just the name of one of the tops in a particular arc. It's the only name I've come up with so far ("^▽^").
5. The arcs may not be written in the order listed.
Theme: Even in darkness, a ray of light will always find its way in.
