Lin Junqing died a horribly tragic death. Only after he died did he learn that his world was a game.
He was an NPC tool character, and every player had to attack him to get opportunities. So he revived again and again, and died again and again. Lin Junqing was so sick of dying that he never expected to wake up this time inside another book.
He had transmigrated into a story about a male lead's rise to power and his harem.
The male lead was named Yin Zechuan.
A classic underdog who rises to the top,
he went from being a bullied beast slave to the supreme immortal lord.
And Lin Junqing was the suicidal cannon-fodder who bullied the male lead.
He had a handsome face and wealth beyond measure, but no brains. He spent all day bullying the male lead, and once the latter rose to power, Lin Junqing would be the first one killed to make an example of him.
He arrived just as the original owner was buying the male lead.
So he started nervously sucking up to him.
He'd become the male lead's very best friend!
He ate and slept with Yin Zechuan every day
and gave him the best spirit pills and medicines.
That went on for five years.
He raised the male lead well.
Yin Zechuan was lively and easygoing, nothing like the miserable wretch he'd once been.
He just had a terrible habit of not getting dressed properly.
Every time Lin Junqing saw him like that, he didn't know what to say.
And yet Yin Zechuan kept coming over, flashing his fair skin. "What can I do for you, Young Master?"
"I do have something. Put on your clothes and keep warm."
Lin Junqing dressed Yin Zechuan, looking like a deeply devoted brother.
Then, an accident led to him and Yin Zechuan sleeping together.
Lin Junqing was stunned.
He'd been trying to cozy up to the male lead. How the hell had he ended up with his arms around his waist?
Lin Junqing ventured, "I know you like women, but what happened today was unavoidable."
If the male lead wanted to kill him out of disgust for sleeping with him once, that would be a ridiculously unfair way to die.
Besides, he was the one who suffered most that night! This damn merman wouldn't listen to a word he said.
Yin Zechuan's expression was unreadable. "Why do you think I like women?"
"The only person I've ever loved, from the beginning to the end, is you, Young Master. I know I'm not worthy of you. I only ask that you don't send me away."
Help! I turned the male lead gay!!!
Well, being the male lead's partner doesn't seem so bad.
Yin Zechuan loved someone.
But nothing he did could get that person's attention.
He heard Lin Junqing liked refined people,
so Yin Zechuan started reading the books he hated most.
Lin Junqing always praised his good looks,
so he started frequenting brothels,
determined to learn how to seduce people.
But all he got was, "Keep warm."
Yin Zechuan nearly ground his back teeth to dust.
Mermen ran hot. If he dressed any warmer, he'd burn himself alive.
A warm, easygoing, scatterbrained but emotionally dense shou x a spirited, clingy puppy-like merman gong
P.S. The shou has virtually no understanding of love or certain other things. He sees his feelings for the gong as brotherly affection.
They dote on each other, and they're each other's first love.
A lighthearted, funny daily-life story.
