Forced to Become a Genius New Student [Interstellar]

[Complete]

Have you ever had someone use the entire world as a cage and bait, all to capture you?

Chen Chuyan says: Thanks for asking. I have, and I never want to think about it again X_X

-

1. [Help!! Emergency!! Let's pool our ideas for a way to survive!!]

As a former member of an infinite-flow world, I thought transmigrating into a tiny baby was bad enough!

Why do I have a whole bunch of people chasing after me to kill me, too?

I can't even roll over yet. Am I really going to be unable to turn my life around from the moment I transmigrated? :X

I know the saying: If you don't pull out the roots, the grass will grow back when spring comes.

But people are strict with others and lenient with themselves. Can't they just let me live?

Then everyone wins: I don't have to go to any trouble, and they don't have to die.

Later:

[Breaking! A genius new student has arrived at the Central Military Academy!]

That's right. Chen Chuyan's plan to lie flat came to an abrupt end when his uncle shoved him into military school, and not just any military school, but the Central Military Academy.

But!

He's an undocumented person!

If they find out, won't they throw him in an interstellar prison?

Then came all kinds of old scores: secret identities, family origins, revenge, his home planet...

Chen Chuyan couldn't escape any of it. This is bad. He could feel the gears of fate beginning to turn. :(

Was this the price he had to pay for transmigrating here?

His plan to lie flat had gotten nowhere...

2. [Shocking! The current Marshal responds to the public's assessment of him: "He's got looks whether you want experience, talent, or looks. Why be a marshal? He should become an actor instead."...]

Pei Ji's response to this so-called public opinion in the entertainment section was: Who cares? :P

He figured he had everything anyone could want.

Experience, talent, looks, even acting skills.

Who cared what the outside world said? He was still the most capable (and handsomest) marshal in history.

With stats like his, what more could anyone ask for?

Besides, weren't they complimenting his looks?

How was he supposed to respond?

Of course, he would thank them.

It wasn't as if he could scold all the citizens who hadn't joined in the public discussion and were too blind to see how good-looking he was.

Later:

[Victory in the battle against the Zerg in the Yangcheng Star System! A solid foundation has been laid for driving back the Zerg once and for all.]

Reporter: "Marshal, you made an outstanding contribution to this battle. What do you think of the public calling you the greatest marshal in the history of the Krite Empire?"

Pei Ji smiled just as he had back then. "I still prefer that earlier comment: 'He's got looks, no matter what you want.'"

Reporter: ...Marshal, you win.

3. Many years later, after finally managing to lie flat, Chen Chuyan looked back on his journey to do so.

Chen Chuyan looked baffled. "Huh??? No, seriously, why was there so much going on? Wasn't I supposed to transmigrate here and lie flat?"

Pei Ji lowered his head and leaned close. "Mm. You just lie flat."

Chen Chuyan lifted his exhausted leg and kicked him. "Get lost! Why don't you try lying flat like this?"

Pei Ji took the hit and caught his outstretched leg, chuckling. "You like that? Then I can lie down too."

Chen Chuyan was furious. "Damn it, you shameless old lecher!"

Pei Ji shot him a dangerous look. "Old?"

Chen Chuyan wasn't intimidated in the least. "Got a problem with that?"

Guide:

1. 1v1, both are each other's only partners, happy ending.

2. Plot-focused.

3. The protagonists are both human!!! The Zerg in this story refers only to creatures that are generally not very intelligent, highly aggressive, similar to large beasts, and strongly communal and hierarchical, with a bit of an interstellar flavor. They don't mean anything else, so please don't get the wrong idea, dears (??_?)?

4. Interstellar setting, with lots of original worldbuilding. It's an alternate universe, purely from the author's imagination, so please don't compare it to reality. [Many thanks!!]

[An incredibly sweet-talking, lucky cat bottom × the top-ranked human who nearly got coaxed into becoming a zygote]

Question: How do you make money in human society?

After reading this post, Chen Nuo confidently declared that he knew how, then picked what seemed like the easiest option.

All he had to do was download a game and make his voice sound a little sweeter.

People said you didn't need to be good at the game in this line of work. You just had to stick by your client's side and say nice things.

Isn't that just coaxing people? He could do that. He had experience.

Chen Nuo read for a while, then downloaded the currently popular online game, Knight's Journey, and tried it out.

Okay, the game was fine.

He tried making his voice higher and got compliments from his roommate. People had been saying he had a nice voice since he was a kid.

Okay, the voice was fine too.

The game was so fun that Chen Nuo accidentally became a skilled player. After all, a cat's reflexes were beyond any human's. It was just that his companion-gaming business didn't seem to be going all that smoothly.

Even so, Chen Nuo didn't give up.

Finally, after all his persistent efforts, he got his first customer since opening for business.

Chen Nuo secretly vowed to do his very best.

No problem. Here's to a great opening!

The client was generous.

The client was gentle.

The client was showering him with money.

The client... booked him for a whole year?

The client wanted to meet in person.

???

Something was wrong!

Client, there is something very wrong with you!
