The Awakened Extra Has Many Roles to Play

Cheerful, protective, and crafty butler shou Zhao Yu × easily appeased, jealous, self-deluding, gloomy gong Zhou Shunyu

Zhao Yu awakened with a rewind System and accepted its missions to go to the protagonist's side, play various roles, and push the plot forward.

He successfully got hired as the protagonist's butler, nearly got fired on his first day, then went on to play a chef, a driver, an assistant…

But the protagonist was hard to please, so Zhao Yu could only secretly use the rewind function:

[The protagonist elegantly samples the foie gras, puzzled: Was this foie gras really air-freighted? Did the chef make it?

Zhao Yu, playing the chef, nervously looks at the takeout order: Yes, but maybe the texture isn't quite right… How about you try eating it again?

[Rewind successful]

Zhao Yu: How's this one?

The protagonist's hand trembles slightly as he grips his fork: It's not bad.

Thinking he'd finally managed to fool him, Zhao Yu beams with pride, completely missing the complicated look in the protagonist's eyes, as if he were staring at a monster.]

Zhou Shunyu figured he might be hallucinating because of his insomnia.

He saw the new butler he'd fired for being slovenly come back in a different outfit, smiling as if he were up to no good.

Afraid the hallucinations would return, Zhou Shunyu took his medicine before meeting the new butler. Instead, he was pinned to the table and made to eat two servings of foie gras that tasted like plastic.

[The new butler grins wickedly: How's the foie gras, young master?

Zhou Shunyu, unable to leave until he finished it, struggles to swallow:… Pretty good.]

But that was only the beginning. A series of strange things happened around him: time rewound, employees lost their souls… He was certain Zhao Yu was hiding a secret.

At first, he only wanted to uncover the secret. Later, he discovered something else: his butler not only meant him no harm, but… seemed to like him.

Zhao Yu would rewind time to save him when he was surrounded by villains; get jealous when Zhou Shunyu got too close to another man; and, despite having a low tolerance for alcohol, shield him from drinks…

He knew Zhao Yu had to have an ulterior motive. Zhou Shunyu flipped open a romance handbook with a cold expression:

What should you do during the courtship stage?

*

Working from a damaged script and only half understanding it, Zhao Yu pushed the plot forward: he rescued the protagonist when he was surrounded, shielded him from drinks during negotiations, and created opportunities when the protagonist's love interest showed up…

Zhao Yu got so used to rewinding time that one day Zhou Shunyu, having drunk five cups of tea in a row, finally grabbed his hand and snapped, "Stop rewinding time."

Zhao Yu: "?"

After being found out, Zhao Yu pushed the plot forward even more recklessly. But why weren't the two protagonists sparking any chemistry? Why were they fighting instead? And why was the protagonist looking at him so strangely?

1. A sweet story, but genuinely frustrating.

2. Both gong and shou have their little flaws. Two gloomy souls: the one who rescues the other is even more miserable.

3. The shou mistook him for someone else.
