The Cannon Fodder Just Wants to Stay Away from the Main Cast

Also known as The Overbearing Young Lord Falls for Me and The Southern Border Young Lord Becomes a Dog for Love

Jing Zhinian transmigrated into a book and became a cannon-fodder character.

To avoid being controlled by the villain's Gu worms,

he set out on a journey to find something that could ward them off.

But he still ended up infected by a Gu worm.

Only this time, it was a love Gu.

Jing Zhinian saved a mute "young woman" with amnesia.

The "young woman" was not only spoiled, but also a little mean.

She was always pretending to be weak just to give him a hard time.

Later, Jing Zhinian discovered that the young woman wasn't mute at all, and was actually a man.

But saving someone has nothing to do with gender!

Jing Zhinian: "There's not a single decent person who uses Gu!"

Bai Jue (pronounced like "jue"): "...That's right."

He quietly hid the little thing in his hand behind his back.

Xu Fangyi behind him: ... Lu Qianying: ...

P.S. Jianghu story with an ensemble cast.

The gong isn't actually mute. He just doesn't want to talk to the shou. He'll probably speak after about two chapters.

There are a few scenes with him cross-dressing early on, but they won't last long.

Updates follow the rankings before publication. I will absolutely not abandon this story. You won't regret getting invested!
