Yan Yu, a newbie at the quick transmigration bureau, was assigned his first mission: play the protagonist’s ex-boyfriend, a cannon-fodder character who embodied every vice: scummy, stupid, and shameless.
The original plot was a story about the protagonist gong winning the protagonist shou’s heart.
Protagonist gong Gu Xuqiao had loved protagonist shou Zhu Xu for years, steadfastly waiting for him and giving him his all. But Yan Yu took credit for Gu Xuqiao’s efforts, causing the two to miss their destined relationship for five whole years.
As the protagonist gong’s face-slapping foil, Yan Yu had to shamelessly pursue the protagonist shou, then fail to cherish him once they were together, flirt around, change his mind, and cheat with a manipulative pretty boy.
That wasn’t all. After the breakup, he had to keep pestering his ex, stirring up trouble until he was thoroughly disgraced and finally written out of the story.
Yan Yu: “...Fine. All I have to do is play the worst man alive, right? I’ll do it for the points!”
Every day, Yan Yu pestered the protagonist shou, annoyed the protagonist gong, made sure he was seen everywhere, and diligently completed his mission. At last, he made it to the day he was supposed to get dumped.
But
The protagonist shou, who was supposed to catch him cheating and walk away after slapping him, spent two days comforting himself and then said, “Baby, you were drunk that day. It’s normal that you couldn’t react in time. I don’t blame you. Let’s make a good life together from now on.”
Yan Yu: “...?”
Is this right?
Zhu Xu refused to break up, stalling the mission. Yan Yu went to the protagonist gong to complain, looking miserable. “Brother Qiao, I feel awful. I’m already tainted, so why won’t Xiao Xu break up with me?”
Gu Xuqiao lazily swirled his glass, his gaze deep. “Mm. You were drunk at the time. It’s normal that you couldn’t get away.”
Yan Yu: “?”
Did you two coordinate your lines?
The next second, a searing presence drew close.
Gu Xuqiao wrapped an arm firmly around his waist and kissed him as Yan Yu stared in shock, a triumphant smile at the corner of his mouth.
“See? I told you, you couldn’t get away.”
Yan Yu: “???”
This is even more wrong, hey!
#The protagonist gong was supposed to secretly love the protagonist shou and win him over, but instead he took his place#
Reader’s guide:
1. Yan Yu is the gong. The original gong, Gu Xuqiao, is the shou. Don’t bet on anyone else.
2. A sunny, lovable, universally adored puppy gong, with many people harboring unrequited feelings. The “cheating” is a misunderstanding. They only pretended to kiss, and never actually kissed.
3. Both leads have only been with each other. The shou is strong, and they dote on each other. Not suitable for readers with extreme top or bottom preferences.
