A Cannon Fodder, Yet the Noble Academy’s Harem Favorite

[Blurb for upcoming novel After the Hated Fake Young Master Falls into the Hehuan Sect below] [The shou and F1’s adoptive father are not actually married, and the shou is not really a widower!] Si Yi was born wicked, but impossibly beautiful. One day, he transmigrates into an old-school novel set at an elite academy, becoming the little stepdad of F1. The original owner is hardworking and kind, the beloved campus crush of the academy’s best students. F1’s adoptive father has ruthlessly pursued him, and he’s about to marry into a wealthy family. Si Yi transmigrates on the night of the engagement. He hasn’t even met his new husband when the man is poisoned and becomes a vegetable. According to the plot, he’ll be branded a bad omen and die of grief after enduring confinement and torture. But Si Yi only wants to show them what it means to have trouble at every turn. That night, he kneels beside the hospital bed, his shirt barely covering his pale thighs. Faint red marks from his shirt garters can be seen beneath the fabric. He winks seductively at the handsome, noble daddy. “Honey, I’ll take good care of your son. Go in peace.” The moment he turns around, he runs into F1’s deliberately cold gaze outside the door. Si Yi smiles, beautiful and contemptuous. “Don’t think I don’t know what you want.” The man, who’s usually arrogant and dignified, suddenly pounces on Si Yi like a mad dog, right in front of his father’s hospital bed. The story begins to spiral out of control. The day Si Yi returns to campus, people can barely hide the contempt and…desire in their eyes. Si Yi doesn’t mind continuing to play the campus crush. He wants to strip away their cold or hypocritical masks, then grind them underfoot. In a dark classroom, F1’s back is taut like a wolf stalking its prey. He pins Si Yi by the waist and demands a kiss. When Si Yi turns around, he finds F2 pointing a pitch-black gun at him. “You’re a disgrace to the family. I wonder what your father would think.” The campus crush smiles, beautiful as an overripe, rotting fruit. “Is it because you want a kiss, too?” F2 is famously chaste and homophobic, but now his heart pounds and his ears burn red. Once F1 and F2 leave, Si Yi kicks the lectern beneath him in disgust. “Still too scared to come out? What a pathetic thing.” F3 crawls out like a ghost. Amid the scandalous rumors, everyone overlooks the school rules being broken one by one, the noble students falling apart, and the madman at the infirmary shouting that Si Yi is going to break his neck. Just as the entire elite academy goes mad for Si Yi, the man in the hospital bed wakes up. 1. There is no main gong, no choosing between love interests, and no alternate routes. The gongs will all sleep with the shou, but not at the same time. 2. A seductive, heartthrob incubus shou who’s powerful and takes revenge for the smallest slight. A max-level player returning to the newbie village: no one can make him suffer. 3. The shou is not a virgin. The gongs are all sexually inexperienced, and F1’s adoptive father has no feelings for the original owner either. The reason is explained in the story. 4. F1 and his adoptive father aren’t related by blood, and the shou has no legal or de facto marital relationship with F1’s dad. 5. The elite academy is a university, and everyone is an adult. After the Hated Fake Young Master Falls into the Hehuan Sect Zhu Bumo is a fake young master hated by everyone. After he dies, he transmigrates into a fantasy cultivation novel. He levels up, defeats monsters, slays gods, and vows to become a legendary protagonist. But on the night before his ascension, a bolt of lightning strikes him and sends him back to the summer before his final year of high school. The Zhu family of the capital brings their real young master home, and Zhu Bumo falls from the clouds into the mud. The System tells Zhu Bumo he couldn’t ascend because his heart knot remains unresolved. What heart knot? In his past life, he desperately fought for everything to prove he was no worse than the real young master. In the end, his friends and family turned against him, and he died miserably in poverty. Now that he has magic, Zhu Bumo decides to lie flat and get even with anyone who’s wronged him. The eldest Zhu brother hands him a check. The powerful, influential man looks at Zhu Bumo indifferently and warns him to behave himself. Knowing it’s an insult, Zhu Bumo cheerfully takes the check. He then makes a hand seal and casts a spell on his big brother to make him drool and act like an idiot. His big brother’s gaze darkens, but he says nothing more. Zhu Bumo: Hey, what happened to my spell? System: [Don’t panic, Host. Spiritual energy is scarce in the modern world. Why not try replenishing yang with yang? I mean, absorbing high-quality life essence!] Before Zhu Bumo can think of a plan, his usually steady and self-possessed big brother starts acting strangely. Silent concern, furtive glances, and one night, a towering figure looming over him. The man’s breath is hot and restless. “Momo, since we aren’t related by blood, maybe we could…” Zhu Bumo is about to tell him to get lost when the System reports that his magic has recovered by 0.1%. Fine. For the sake of revenge, he’ll put up with it! The fake young master who usurped the real one’s place has shamelessly returned, and the eldest Zhu brother is even backing him? The capital’s wealthy families erupt in an uproar. As soon as Zhu Bumo starts school, the real young master’s best friend comes looking for trouble. The aloof, rebellious rich young master blocks his way and says he wants to see what makes Zhu Bumo so special that he can turn a fake into the real thing. Zhu Bumo uses the tiny amount of magic he has, just 1%, makes a hand seal, and casts a spell to paralyze him from the waist down. Who could have guessed that the rich young master wouldn’t be paralyzed? Instead, he gets a little too… functional. In a dark classroom, he grabs Zhu Bumo by the waist, his handsome nose brushing Zhu Bumo’s neck. “Momo, stop favoring your big brother all the time. Let me have a turn, too.” Zhu Bumo: ? System: [Don’t panic, Host. Your magic has increased by another 0.01%. Let your brothers touch you again!] Fine. For the sake of ascension, he’ll put up with it! Zhu Bumo endures all the indignities and finally gathers enough magic. That night, the real young master puts on an innocent puppy-dog act again and praises him in a saccharine voice. “Momo, you smell so good.” Unable to take it anymore, Zhu Bumo makes a hand seal and silently recites an incantation. “Get lost! This is my heart-stealing spell!” “Momo, don’t worry. You really did steal our hearts…” Behind him, the young masters he’s put spells on file into the room, and the door is locked. Zhu Bumo rubs his aching waist and is close to tears. “System, what exactly is my heart knot?” System: [Host, your heart knot is that you have too few Dao companions.] Zhu Bumo: “I’m a proper cultivator. How can you say such nonsense!” System: [Baby, you’re cultivating in the Hehuan Sect, and you’re in a restricted novel from a certain website…] Zhu Bumo: … The System shrieks: [Holy crap, the Host is completely furious!] Theme: Everyone is born equal.
