Novel blurb

Naturally rebellious, low-level tea-acting chaos gremlin bottom & lazy, sharp-tongued top

After his department draws lots, Bai Yan is unlucky enough to be chosen as a contestant on the first campus BL dating show.

Bai Yan, who has terrible luck and was born rebellious, declares:

He's going to show everyone his wonderful state of mind on this campus dating show, then get kicked off this ridiculous program!

Two male students hit it off during the first episode and agree to eat together in the cafeteria.

Bai Yan opens his innocent-looking eyes wide and turns their lunch for two into a movie date for three.

"Hey, your meat looks pretty good. Can I try some?"

When the two students plan to take a walk around the track after dinner to grow closer, Bai Yan shamelessly pretends not to notice he's intruding.

"Hey, mind if I join you?"

Until he finally runs into a brick wall named Lu Shiming...

While Lu Shiming is chatting with the other contestants,

Bai Yan joins them and says meekly, "Sorry, can I interrupt you?"

Lu Shiming props his chin on his hand and smiles faintly. "If you know you're interrupting, then don't."

Bai Yan: "..."

Lu Shiming only agreed to join the campus dating show because his roommate, one of the organizers, begged him to save a program that wasn't getting enough attention.

On top of that, they gave him a secret and revolting assignment:

To add more drama to the show, the organizers had created the role of "mysterious troublemaker K."

Just as Lu Shiming was about to phone it in, he discovered someone had taken over his role and was openly, unabashedly causing trouble.

Amused by Bai Yan's attempts to steal people away from their partners, the man who had planned to use an excuse to quit after two episodes suddenly became interested.

Bai Yan invites him to join his breakfast group with someone else. He refuses.

Bai Yan invites him to join the group chat. He fires back.

Bai Yan deliberately leaves his umbrella behind on a rainy day so they'll have to share one.

He then looks at him pitifully and says, "I'm so scatterbrained. If I'd remembered my umbrella, you wouldn't have gotten wet, senior. The other students must be really worried about you going back to the dorm like this."

Lu Shiming doesn't spare his feelings. "You really are an idiot. Try being a little smarter next time."

Then a new contestant falls for Bai Yan's tea-act and starts waiting on him hand and foot. Bai Yan stops coming around to tease Lu Shiming.

Outside filming hours, Lu Shiming pins him against the dorm bed frame. "Do you make a habit of flirting with everyone, junior? Do you get bored and move on that easily?"

A flicker of panic crosses Bai Yan's face, but he quickly puts on a fake smile. "No. It's not like I'm Lu's first choice anyway, and you can't take away my right to choose a partner."

At that, Lu Shiming laughs in anger and bites his lips. "How do you know you're not my first choice?"

Having been bitten out of nowhere, Bai Yan is internally distraught and full of questions, near tears. I'm just an ordinary troublemaker!

But he has to keep up his act, so he looks away with a wounded expression. "I know Lu's just making that up to cheer me up. If I really believed you, I'd be heartbroken later."

Lu Shiming: "... What a masterful little white tea."

★ The Voice Fan Accidentally Meets His Ex on a Variety Show, blurb:

A coquettish gaming expert online || a laid-back, voice-loving actor offline, bottom

&

All bark and no bite || a secretly flirtatious gaming ace, top

Shi Juan is an actor with a hopelessly slow internet connection. In an age when everyone surfs at 32G speeds, he goes against the trend and, true to his name, is always lying flat.

His agent is so furious about his laid-back attitude that he throws him onto a variety show called Everyone's a Producer.

In the first episode's two-way selection game, "Hear Their Voice First," he picks a male contestant with a beautiful voice. As a voice fan, Shi Juan can't help praising him.

"Big brother, you have such a nice voice~"

"Big brother, I love that villainous, bubbly voice of yours~"

"Big brother, your voice sounds so familiar~"

The male contestant, whom he has never met, replies, "Thanks. You sound a lot like my ex-girlfriend, too."

Shi Juan: "...I'll take that as a compliment?"

Later, during filming, Shi Juan unexpectedly discovers that the gaming ace named Cen Zhuoxian not only has a great voice and a handsome face, but is also the online gaming boyfriend he flirted with back when he was lying flat at home and playing games!

He cautiously tries to avoid being found out, convinced his actions are perfectly discreet, but why does Cen Zhuoxian keep asking him strange questions?

For example:

"Teacher Shi Juan, do you play video games?"

"Teacher Shi Juan, do you have a younger sister?"

"Teacher Shi Juan, have you ever dated anyone?"

Shi Juan: "No! Absolutely not!"

Just as he's congratulating himself on his astonishing acting skills, one night during filming, Cen Zhuoxian suddenly barges into the bathroom while he's about to shower and forcefully parts his thighs to inspect the red mole on his inner thigh.

The man's smile turns strange and twisted. "Teacher Shi Juan, the birthmark here looks exactly like the one on my 'ex-girlfriend.'"

Stammering, Shi Juan tries to bluff his way out. "...No, it's too dark. You must be seeing things, gaming ace. This definitely isn't a birthmark."

The other man's tone grows increasingly intriguing. "Oh? Is that so? If I saw it wrong, then let me take another look. A few more times."
