Also known as: "A Villain's Fate Is Destined to Be Miserable, With One Exception"
Bai Silai died unexpectedly and was chosen by a System to transmigrate into an unfinished novel he'd read.
The System told him his mission was to change the male lead's ending and bring the world to a happy conclusion.
Just as Bai Silai was preparing to get to work, he discovered he'd transmigrated as a disposable extra.
The kind who'd be bitten to death by bugs.
Bai Silai: "...Haha, actually, being a wage slave isn't so bad. Can I go back?"
System: Sure. You can go back and have your soul scattered to the winds.
Bai Silai: "..."
When he'd first arrived, the original owner had been planning to watch the male lead make a fool of himself.
The male lead was already onstage, performing a song, while the servant beside Bai Silai was itching to join in and stir up trouble. Bai Silai immediately pointed at the person onstage and said, "I'll buy his freedom!"
The servant who'd come along to harass the male lead: "..." Young master, what is going on?!
Sheng Qingyue had just killed someone who dared touch him when he heard that someone wanted to buy his freedom.
When he saw the newcomer, Sheng Qingyue's smile did not falter. "I am fortunate that Second Young Master Bai has bought my freedom. I have nothing to repay him with, so all I can do is..."
Bai Silai: "Offer yourself to me? Sure, sure!" If you offer yourself to me, you can't feed me to the bugs.
Sheng Qingyue: "..."
The underlings watching from the shadows: What is going on with this guy?!
But later, whenever Bai Silai thought about buying Sheng Qingyue's freedom,
he wanted to slap himself.
Why meddle in other people's business? I must've had way too much time on my hands!
Bai Silai was about to cry when a pair of arms wrapped around him, making him tremble in fright.
Sheng Qingyue leaned close to his ear. "What are you thinking about?"
Bai Silai: "I was thinking... I want to eat a regret antidote for lunch."
Sheng Qingyue spent his life wandering the world, filled with malice.
Aside from revenge, he sought amusement in those boring years.
Then he found it. That person stirred his emotions and became his shackles.
But it didn't matter. Sheng Qingyue only wanted to keep him by his side, whatever the cost, by any means necessary.
Gu Master x Formation Master
Dark, obsessive original male lead top x carefree, goofy transmigrated disposable-extra bottom
Please note: The top is a lunatic, a real lunatic.
Also, the scene above where he offers himself doesn't happen in Chapter One. It may happen around Chapter Twenty, depending on how the plot unfolds, but the purchase of his freedom starts in Chapters One or Two.
This is primarily plot-driven, and there is little romance early on. Please be aware.
Theme: Step by step, become a decent version of yourself.
