As soon as Xia He Ting heard that his boyfriend Song Lin had accidentally drowned while out at sea collecting material and fallen into a coma, he rushed to the hospital.
The first thing he heard was the bad news: his boyfriend was in a vegetative state.
The doctor said he might wake up in ten days or half a month, or it could take decades. When he woke depended on his luck.
Xia He Ting stayed calm. He only visited his boyfriend after work during the day, always wearing a cold expression. Other patients' families whispered that he was heartless.
But on nights when no one was watching, he would lie on the hospital bed, hold Song Lin's hand, and cry as he looked at the man with his eyes shut.

On the eighth night of Song Lin's coma, Xia He Ting kissed his sleeping boyfriend as usual.
[System: Beep beep! Song Lin's darling has been detected. Please complete the main storyline of your gong's outline, A Guide to Infinite Love, and save your gong!]
Xia He Ting was stunned, thinking there must be something wrong with his head.
The next second, he was transported into... the imaginary world inside his novelist boyfriend's mind?!
[System: Hello, Song Lin's darling. The first outline you need to complete is a beautiful romance between top student Song Lin and school bully Xia He Ting.
Your mission this round: Make "top student Song Lin" fall in love with you according to the main storyline your gong imagined.]
Xia He Ting, now a high school school bully: Hang on, how am I supposed to know what he came up with?
[System: Song Lin's darling, I don't know either. Why not guess?]

Xia He Ting grumbled inwardly about Song Lin. The man's imagination was impossible to predict.
One moment, it was a youthful first love at school; the next, an ABO arranged marriage between wealthy families. There was even an ancient-style story about enemies becoming a kept lover. Wait, why was there a post-apocalyptic zombie outbreak scenario too?!
After racking his brain to guess the storylines and save his gong, he finally completed four stories, bringing the progress bar to eighty percent.
[System: Hello, Song Lin's darling. Welcome to the final main storyline in the outline:
Modern-day setting. No outline, because your gong hasn't thought of one yet.]
Xia He Ting clenched his fists and thought,
Song Lin, you're dead.
Xia He Ting (shou) x Song Lin (gong)
Ice-cold beauty CEO shou x carefree, flamboyant novelist gong
A story about two hopeless romantics who are both a perfect ten.
Reading notes:
1. This novel takes place in the novelist gong's mind, and is essentially the story outline in his head.
2. The main characters in every story are the gong and shou themselves! Their personalities don't change! No fragments! Absolutely monogamous, thank you.
3. There are five stories in total. Pick your favorite. I'll add more if I think of them.
Theme: Crown the one you love, and become someone who shines.
