There is always a group of authors like this in the world.
Other people's protagonists have sweet, happy romances, but theirs suffer through physical and emotional torment.
They enjoy the satisfaction they get from readers' anguished cries.
Then, one day at last,
they were punished.
System 555: Hello, Host. The corruption level of the protagonist you wrote is too high, and the novel's world is about to collapse. You'll have to maintain the stability of this small world.
The authors of all those angst novels: Maintain stability? Easy. Wait, why am I the protagonist?
System 555: That's your mission to maintain the stability of the small world.
The authors of all those angst novels: ...
The authors of all those angst novels: !?
Thinking of all the awful plots they'd written: severed hands and feet, kidney and heart transplants, false accusations and misunderstandings, love that went unrequited, and so on.
The authors of all those angst novels: Please spare us TT
[World One: The Disowned Scion of a Wealthy Family]
[Your identity is an orphan adopted by a wealthy family, despised by everyone. You donate blood and organs to your frail, sickly younger brother, and eventually jump off a building to kill yourself.]
"What are you doing?"
Standing on the rooftop, Jiang Xiyan's dark eyes flickered at the sound of the voice.
He looked at the red-eyed person behind him and nodded. "Isn't this what you wanted?"
As soon as the words left his mouth, a cold hand grabbed him. The other person's fingertips trembled, their face rigid and tense beyond description.
"No. You can't leave."
[World Two: The Kept Celebrity]
[Your identity is that of a no-name celebrity plagued by scandals. You have to repay the enormous gambling debts your father left behind, while caring for your sick mother and young sister. A wealthy patron keeps you, but after you fall in love with him, he heartlessly abandons you.]
Gu Mingshen looked at the person whose positions with him had been reversed and saw the hatred in their eyes. He sighed softly. "If this is what you want..."
He thought this scene, which felt just like being reborn, was the other's way of "getting revenge" on him.
It wasn't until he saw that person standing where he used to stand, silently shielding him from so much, that he felt perplexed. "Why?"
"Why? You're asking me why?" The other's kiss tasted of blood. They seemed to know how careless he was, and spoke each word slowly and deliberately.
"Maybe hate lasts longer than love."
"Don't even think about escaping."
