Can a Brooding Bottom Be Someone's Wife?

1.

One day, Yu Yan became self-aware and learned that he was living in a male-oriented son-in-law novel. The protagonist would use the "son-in-law System" to curry favor with the powerful, live off others while acting superior, and rise to the top.

Yu Yan, meanwhile, was an invisible nobody who never took part in the plot. He was gloomy and antisocial, and so broke his pockets were emptier than his face was plain.

Then an electronic voice suddenly rang out in his mind.

[Ding-dong! The son-in-law System has successfully bound Host "Yu Yan".]

[Fault detected... bzzzt... incorrect Host... bzzzt...]

The System had bound itself to the wrong person.

Yu Yan frowned.

He tried to calm down and ignore the System.

But what it did next made him freeze.

[Main quest: Marry into the Gu family]

[Recommended conquest target: Gu Xuan]

The System drew a huge arrow over the conquest target, painting a beautiful picture of his future.

[Look! A cold, aloof, wealthy beauty who'll fall head over heels for you alone. After you're married, if you say east, he won't go west!]

That was Yu Yan's roommate, a textbook example of a heaven-blessed prodigy. He never took Yu Yan seriously, always wore a cold expression, and acted like he was all that.

Yu Yan had hated him for a long time.

The System laid out a plan:

Early-stage mission: Lure him in.

Mid-stage mission: Order him around.

Late-stage mission: Dump him.

2.

Yu Yan hadn't expected to succeed at even the first mission. But things went so smoothly that he made it all the way to the late stage, right into bed...

Yu Yan's face flushed as he trembled. He was suppressing his anger, but the other man mistook it for shyness.

"Gu Xuan, you can't..." He gritted his teeth.

This was when he was supposed to make an excuse and dump Gu Xuan!

But Gu Xuan wouldn't let him go. A thin sheen of sweat covered his brow and eyes.

"What can't I do?"

"Be specific."

Yu Yan's eyes went unfocused. He choked out between sobs, "You can, you can, you're really good at it..."

He was about to be taken apart. What kind of ferocious human-shaped sex machine was this?

He really did hate Gu Xuan most of all!

3.

When the truth about the son-in-law System came out, Gu Xuan learned that Yu Yan hated him.

He sneered.

Then he took him even more brutally.

Yu Yan was already the wife he'd claimed for himself. Escape? Not a chance.
