Everyone Around Me Is a Green Tea

[Revision in progress]

Li Qingye is a tea tree spirit. For hundreds and thousands of years, every tea-picking season has left him wafting with the scent of tea. So no matter how much he denies it, saying, “I can't, I'm not,” the System still chooses him to play the part of a proper green tea in a book.

...But he's really only fragrant with tea in the literal, physical sense!

Having a natural fragrance absolutely does not mean you're giving off the spiritual scent of a green tea! How can the silly System not understand even that? QAQ.

But after being forced to transmigrate to an interstellar world and finally accepting his fate, Li Qingye gets ready to diligently complete his tasks, only to discover that things are gradually going wrong. Everyone around him seems to have at least a little green tea in them.

#I transmigrated to play a green tea, but then I found out everyone else had become even more of a green tea for my sake. I feel like a fake green tea#

There's gentle tea, straightforward tea, domineering tea, cold-faced tea, and stubborn, deranged tea that doesn't even realize what it is... Everyone can be tea.

These villains, who instinctively grasped the essence of green tea from his clumsy attempts, all put their tea skills on display in front of him, trying to win his favor.

And they're all much better at being green tea than he is. They use their tea to counter his tea, relentlessly cornering the inexperienced little green tea until he has nowhere to run.

How is this fair?

Li Qingye is utterly and completely aggrieved: “System, what's going on? Everyone in here is better at being tea than me. What's the point of bringing me here?”

The System makes the sound of someone slowly taking a sip of tea, then sighs ruefully: “Who could possibly know? You somehow turned a world with a perfectly good melodramatic setup into a green tea battlefield. I have to hand it to you.”

...It doesn't matter whether its Host is good at being tea or not. The green tea levels among the story's characters have already gone way over the limit. There's all the melodrama and the battlefield anyone could want.

...Even if the melodrama is caused by everyone competing for the Host, and the battlefield is centered around the Host.

Well, well... that still counts as achieving the goal in a different way, doesn't it?

#Send me one green tea, get many green teas in return#

#I can't out-tea them, I really can't. Not only do I have to admit defeat, I can't help cowering in terror: Don't come any closer, QAQ!#

Later, Li Qingye finally realizes that although everyone wears a disguise of green tea, everyone except him is at least a little messed up inside.

Everyone around me is a green tea? No, everyone around me is a total freak. [Solemn]

A lighthearted, silly story that doesn't require much thought, featuring several contestants who seem like green teas on the surface but are actually freaks inside. The competition is fierce, and each contestant has their own style. The only judge, and the contestant with the lowest green tea score, is without a doubt our little tea tree spirit. [Grief =w=]

He's really making the tea fragrance he gives off look bad. :)

Blurb: Qiu Yun'an made a bet with a System that suddenly appeared, wagering on whether helping people in desperate situations across different worlds would earn him sincere gratitude or get him repaid with betrayal.

Kind by nature, Qiu Yun'an believed good people were sure to be rewarded, and without hesitation chose the former in his bet with the System.

But unfortunately, things didn't go as he'd hoped. No matter how the people he saved felt about his help at first, before long they all developed improper desires, wanting to make him their own.

After one failure, then another, then failure after failure, Qiu Yun'an said, “Great. I underestimated how wicked people can be.”

The System, at a loss for words, said, “Could you perhaps also acknowledge how attractive you are, Host?”

Especially after Qiu Yun'an discovered that the person who kept repaying his kindness with betrayal was actually the same person every time.

Qiu Yun'an: “...I shouldn't have felt sorry for him back then, QAQ!”

Theme: Treat others with kindness, and they will treat you with kindness too.
