Scum Bottom, Please Take Your Place [Reborn]

Friendly reminder: Take a deep breath before reading (●v●)

Super-short intro before the blurb:

A gorgeous man who thinks he's the top and believes he's his lover's sugar daddy begs pathetically for love. After being reborn, he finally wakes up, gets revenge on the scumbag, and is determined to make him regret everything. But when he lets loose from the start and looks for someone to spend a wonderful night with, his archenemy unexpectedly pins him down. He has a total meltdown, yet finds himself wanting more. Then he keeps seducing the scumbag to get revenge while also flirting and getting entangled with his archenemy. In the end, everyone falls to their knees at the sight of him in his suit pants. A twisted love story.

The proper blurb:

Men are all bastards.

Luo Jinchi thinks that saying probably fits him pretty well.

Everyone knows how devoted he is to Chi Junyan. He was willing to put anything in front of him, spending money, resources, and connections. In public and in private, he always put Chi Junyan's wishes first. People would tease him to his face and mock his "expecting nothing in return" behind his back, but he would only smile, perfectly happy with it.

But all he got in return was Chi Junyan walking away without a backward glance for someone else.

A rock crashed down from above.

Amid the shaking, Luo Jinchi died in the year he loved and hated Chi Junyan most.

Reborn, most people would have given up and stayed away.

But Luo Jinchi wouldn't. He insisted on getting an answer.

Chi Junyan won his first Best Actor award. Luo Jinchi waited for him all night, but this time he drank the red wine he'd carefully prepared, loosened his tie, and decided to unwind. Instead, he still happened to run into his archenemy that night, and somehow they ended up in bed together.

Who could have guessed that Gu Siyue, so refined and aloof in public, would be a beast in private?

The next day, Luo Jinchi went to see Chi Junyan with hickeys all over him.

For the first time, he saw Chi Junyan's expression change dramatically in front of him.

He thought, men really are all bastards.

Then he laughed softly and said, "It was an accident. I didn't mean for it to happen."

After that, Luo Jinchi kept "spending money, resources, and connections" on Chi Junyan as before.

He handed him a glass of wine. "Go offer a toast to Mr. Zhao, Junyan."

"My stomach hurts. Wasn't all the money you gave me enough to buy a box of stomach medicine?"

"Well, if you want to help someone else, just give up that role of yours."

Everything Luo Jinchi did had apparently felt like coercion to Chi Junyan.

So this time, he changed his approach. Until that contract expired, everything would be fair and impartial, an equal exchange. If you wanted something, you'd pay the appropriate price.

The only exception was probably Gu Siyue.

Pinned down, Luo Jinchi's waist arched and dipped. His voice was mocking.

"Mr. Gu, do other people know... how much you crave me?"

Gu Siyue sneered behind him.

"Luo Jinchi, do other people know how much of a scumbag you are behind their backs?"

■ Refined and aloof top who breaks his own rules for one person / no stomach problems / keeps a regular schedule / loves goji berries

■ Reborn bottom, a scumbag who only wants to enjoy life alone / loves looking good / extremely narcissistic / thinks he's the top

■ Insists on getting an answer: an answer in the form of revenge / punishes the scumbag / he really thinks he's all that / pure revenge
