The Villain's Puppy Wins Everyone Over with Cuteness

Cheerful, scatterbrained puppy gong × wild, villainous big shot shou; Ruan is gong, Xi is shou; updated daily Ruan Yuanbai accidentally transmigrates into an old-school, melodramatic revenge novel, becoming the beloved puppy of the villain, Xi Ningyu. In the original story, Xi Ningyu is a ruthless, unhinged big shot with influence in both the underworld and the legitimate world. He lives by the credo that anyone who gets in his way must die, and is completely devoted to his career. He sets his sights on the protagonist and heads straight for a gruesome end. To keep himself alive, Ruan Yuanbai binds himself to an old-school character reform system. Xi Ningyu locks horns with the protagonist, and the tension is on a knife's edge. Ruan gives them each a swipe of his paw. "Don't get carried away, guys. Show a dog some respect." Xi Ningyu carefully plots a kidnapping and is about to do something he shouldn't, so Ruan grabs his pant leg and whines, "Crime might feel good in the moment, but you'll be crying behind bars afterward." Xi Ningyu faces off against his nemesis, his life hanging by a thread. Ruan runs back and forth between them, barking, "Ever heard that harmony brings prosperity?" As the reform proceeds smoothly, his affection points shoot up, and the plot gradually goes off the rails... Wait, why has everyone started fighting over the dog? But he already has an owner! Xi Ningyu also notices that something is off about Xiaobai. He's too clever for his own good, outrageously bold, and keeps ruining Xi Ningyu's plans, making him grit his teeth in frustration. But whenever Xi Ningyu meets Xiaobai's amber eyes, brimming with affection for him, and feels that fluffy head nuzzle into his palm, he can't bring himself to say anything harsh or disagreeable. Xi Ningyu always thought he didn't care about feelings. Being useful and using others, he believed, were the only ways to make things last. But he gradually realizes that he's a complete sucker for this stuff. [System: Affection +10,000] * One day, the affection points build up until they overflow and trigger his transformation. The system automatically asks if he wants to redeem them. Ruan Yuanbai wakes up groggily. Before he can even process that he's turned into a human, he meets Xi Ningyu's smoldering gaze. The system issues frantic alerts: The villain's affection for you has exceeded one million in a single instance! The entire prize pool is now open! "Redeem [Mind Reading]..." The next second, Xi Ningyu's thoughts crash into him: "So beautiful, so cute, I want to kiss him so badly. Would kissing him to death count as murder?" Ruan Yuanbai: ? His thoughts are still going downhill. The reform isn't complete yet. He climbs into Xi Ningyu's arms as usual, ready to give him a lesson in proper thinking. Unexpectedly, Xi Ningyu goes stiff as a board. Ruan Yuanbai: ...Is it too late to turn back into a puppy? * Later, Xi Ningyu learns that he's the villain in a novel, that some of his actions are controlled by the plot and make him act like an idiot, and that he is destined for a gruesome end. His face darkens. "So you got close to me and those other people from the start just to reform us?" The tips of Ruan Yuanbai's ears twitch, and he glances away. Xi Ningyu scoffs. "Those losers aren't even worth it. How about I just get rid of them all, so you won't have to see them again?" System: "Host, please note that plot harmony has decreased by 5%." "!!!" Ruan Yuanbai grabs Xi Ningyu and kisses him. What is wrong with this guy? He keeps saying things dogs don't want to hear. P.S. The shou's character in the original novel starts to change after the gong appears. This story contains none of the disturbing criminal acts from the original novel. Reader's Guide: A comedy. The romance is strictly 1v1, with a very strong mutual attraction between the gong and shou, and both pursuing each other. Other characters are mainly platonic. There will be a little career plot, but no side couples. Do not break up or reverse the dream pairing. Not suitable for readers who are devoted to one character's side. Neither character is a weakling in bed. No need to tell me if you drop the story. Theme: World peace
