Every Time I Courted Death, the Male Lead Loved Me More [Quick Transmigration]

[Cool, deadpan, handsome top x ruthless, love-struck, powerful bottom]

{I'm planning to start "I, a Fading Deity, Am Waiting for Offerings Online" next. The blurb is below. If you're interested, please add it to your collection.}

Shen Chuo is an outstanding employee in the quick transmigration romance department. After working for five years straight, he's managed to save up 30,000 hours of paid leave. But now, because the Lord God has fallen asleep, he's been forced to work overtime and is about to put in six years without a break.

Shen Chuo: This is outrageous! Even an outstanding employee has limits.

Luckily, if he fails a mission 100 times in a row, he can take a special leave of absence. Shen Chuo is confident he can handle half-hearted missions, too.

He fails 99 times in a row without a hitch. He only needs one more failure to enjoy his vacation, but somehow he can't fail no matter what he does.

Looking at the mission target clinging to him and refusing to let go, Shen Chuo lets out a long sigh. What can he do when his mission target is so hopelessly in love?

1. Puppet-in-training, kept under lock and key, top x cultivation world's overpowered protagonist, bottom

Shen Chuo thinks he knows all about overpowered protagonists. He steals the protagonist's opportunities, takes his life-bound spiritual weapon, and even conspires with the villain to kill him, all to get his affection score down to -100.

But in the end, the protagonist's eyes turn red as he takes Shen Chuo's hand, the one holding the knife pointed at him. "You won't kill me. You really do love me more..."

Shen Chuo: You're not an overpowered protagonist. Who are you?

2. Flirtatious rich playboy, top x ace talent manager, bottom

Shen Chuo learns from his previous mistake and this time firmly takes the protagonist's side in the conflict. He even pretends to forcibly take the protagonist's unrequited love, and conspires with the villain to covet the company the protagonist worked so hard to establish. He holds nothing back.

But by the end, the protagonist has not only become his perfect partner but also holds Shen Chuo in his arms. "If you want the company, take it. I deleted everyone in your phone. You aren't allowed to meet anyone else..."

Shen Chuo: ...

3. Upright and principled minister, top x transmigrated tyrant, bottom

4. More to come

Before you read:

1. The top is the main character. I'm not sure whether readers who only like tops can read this, but it's obviously not for readers who only like bottoms, so please be cautious. If this isn't for you, hit the back button and let's part ways here, okay? Okay.

2. The bottom has multiple versions. The ending is one-on-one, but there will be people who have unrequited feelings for the top along the way.

3. The top is rather cold and slow to reciprocate. The bottom is as described in the blurb, hopelessly in love.

4. The bedroom scenes are weak, only oranges (a heads-up in advance, though I haven't written that far yet...)

… Blurb for the novel available to collect …

Gu Pingchuan is a minor god with no temple and no offerings. He's on the verge of vanishing.

To gather a meager amount of worship, he runs errands and feeds cats every day, doing little tasks to keep his books more or less balanced.

Then the Supreme Good Top System binds him and forces him into a competition for the bottom protagonist's heart.

Gu Pingchuan looks at his empty pool of faith. "I'm about to starve to death, and you want me to date someone?"

The System doesn't care. It says that if he fails the mission, it'll ruthlessly deduct his worship.

With nowhere else to turn, he looks over the list of rivals: Zhou Zhuo, whose possessiveness is off the charts and whose fate is unbelievably privileged, is also his ex-boyfriend. He's absolutely not someone to mess with. Shen Qingxuan, a mysterious new star in the business world, looks gentle, but he clearly has a scheming streak. He's no easy opponent, either.

With no money, no influence, and his divine power nearly depleted, Gu Pingchuan obviously can't compete. He suffers one setback after another.

At the very last moment before he fades away, Gu Pingchuan shakily calls Zhou Zhuo. His voice is barely a whisper. "Save me. Name your price."

Zhou Zhuo takes him home and nourishes his divine soul with a vast fortune of destiny. In return, Gu Pingchuan has to get back together with him and never break up again.

The System shrieks and claws at him, ramping up the punishment until even Zhou Zhuo's fortune of destiny can't withstand it.

Just as Gu Pingchuan gives up hope, his neighbor Shen Qingxuan drops by and brings him a bowl of soup. To his surprise, it works incredibly well.

That's when he discovers that Shen Qingxuan is a cultivator who transmigrated here from another world. He failed his tribulation and lost all his cultivation, but he can see at a glance how close Gu Pingchuan's divine nature is to vanishing.

From then on, everything changes. Gu Pingchuan has two worshippers.

Zhou Zhuo nourishes him with his fortune of destiny. "I gave it to you, so you have to use it."

Shen Qingxuan searches through his cultivation memories and improves his medicinal recipes. "This nourishing recipe is perfect for you."

The System screams in Gu Pingchuan's mind, falling apart: You scummy top!

Gu Pingchuan is rosy-cheeked, divine radiance glowing within him. He looks at the despairing System and asks sincerely:

"How does this not make me the Supreme Good Top?"

Please note:

1. The top is the main character: an optimistic little god with a strong will to survive. Not one-on-one, probably an open ending.

2. The bedroom scenes are weak, only oranges.

3. More to come.

Message: True love endures, even when fate throws everything into confusion.
