[This book will be fully revised. I've already finished drafting my next book and will pick an auspicious day to start posting it. It's called *The Dutiful Beta Is Doted on Intensely*. Please support it, my dears. Add it to your favorites to help it get noticed. Bowing in gratitude.]
Blurb:
Pei Shu transmigrates into an ABO world, becoming a pitiful nobody with nothing but a pretty face at an all-Alpha boys' school.
Even more absurdly, he accidentally presents as an Omega.
Pei Shu: Am I going to survive this? (serenely closes his eyes)
To save up enough money to escape, he takes the risk of starting an anonymous livestream.
While everyone else is scrambling to show off their talents and fawning over the powerful, his show goes in a completely different direction:
*Top Alpha Relationship Reviews: Can You Date This Aristocrat?*
[Contestant No. 1: Quan Lin, the gentle heir to a financial empire]
Quan Lin: "I'll only marry someone I love. If there's no sincerity, marriage means nothing to me."
Pei Shu, starry-eyed: "You're so wonderful, Senior! Your wife will be so happy!"
The livestream chat instantly changes its tune:
"'I'll only marry someone I love' = I'm in a good mood, so I'll reward you with a fling. Once I'm bored, you'll have been unworthy of me all along!
'Marriage means nothing' = You want to use marriage to tie me down? Who do you think you are? My advice to the streamer: Run!"
[Contestant No. 2: Lu Yuduo, the cold-faced marshal's son]
During his rut, he loses control and pins Pei Shu to the sofa. Nearly out of his mind, he grits his teeth and growls, "Get out... Lock the door!"
Pei Shu, moved to tears: "Senior is a true gentleman!"
The livestream chat gets serious:
"Girls, this might be more complicated than we thought! I saw it with my own eyes and experienced it firsthand (not really)! He was about to explode down there! And he still managed to hold back? Ahem, in that department... I'm not just making things up, but he's probably all show and no substance! Next!"
[Contestant No. 3: Bai Xi, the puppy-like genius junior]
He edges closer obediently. "Senior, I won't let anyone hurt you. Never."
Pei Shu clutches his chest. "Junior is a little angel!"
The livestream chat sends out an urgent warning in the middle of the night: "Run! Buy a standing ticket and get out tonight! He's a, beep beep beep, pervert..."
Whoops, they've hauled off the livestream...
Top Alpha from the Empire + scathing reviews + explosive revelations = livestream meltdown!
The comments are full of:
[Baby, don't insult him. Insult me instead.]
[It's their good fortune to be insulted by the streamer.]
[I'm afraid they'll enjoy getting insulted.jpg]
Pei Shu makes a name for himself overnight, winning the frenzied adoration of countless Omegas. His livestream's popularity keeps climbing, and the tips pour in. His words are treated as the ultimate guide to love and spread across the entire star sea...
Online, he's an anonymous streamer with a razor-sharp tongue.
Offline, he puts on a meek, timid facade as he deals with the people he's reviewing.
He deliberately acts weak, averts his eyes, and pretends to be pitiful. His awkward, clumsy performance only captivates the attention of the elite. They gaze at him with burning, obsessive eyes, unable to look away.
But Pei Shu knows the truth: every one of these aristocrats is a villain.
He plays along on the surface, while privately planning how to get away unscathed.
==
On the eve of graduation, Pei Shu packs his bulging wallet and resolves to leave for good.
But when the door opens, three figures are standing right in his way.
Their expressions darken as they close in, step by step:
"I heard..."
"You're the one who said we were useless?"
"That we weren't marriage material?"
Pei Shu: ...I'm done for.
[Reading Guide]
1. Temporary one-on-one pairings. Let's see who can win Baby's heart first. They all date, but each relationship is one-on-one, and the ending is multiple partners.
2. The love interests are pure in body and mind. They're entitled, possessive, and very, very bad. The one featured in the blurb is the endgame love interest, but there are plenty of other disposable love interests.
3. A shameless wish-fulfillment novel. The protagonist becomes incredibly successful later on, and everyone else is just a stepping stone.
-Coming soon: Pre-release blurb-
During his third year of college, the Lin family suddenly goes bankrupt. As the least valued Beta in the family, Lin Ran is pushed into an arranged marriage. No one expects him to win the favor of the Lu family's heir.
Lu Yilin is a top-tier Alpha, noble-born and dazzling.
He's always gentle and polite with Lin Ran, never raises his voice, and always asks Lin Ran what he thinks before making a decision.
Everyone says Lin Ran is incredibly lucky. The young master fell in love with him at first sight and treats him like a treasure. Only Lin Ran knows the truth: it's all part of a marriage-of-convenience agreement. They put everything in writing, agreeing to help each other, keep out of each other's private affairs, and never cross the line.
-
Lin Ran is mild-mannered, honest, and dutiful.
After the wedding, he does everything Lu Yilin says and accommodates him in every way. He never says no, following the agreement to the letter.
Everything proceeds smoothly. Lin Ran just has to wait for the agreement to end, collect his payment, divorce Lu Yilin, and leave the Lu family.
-
Lately, though, Lin Ran often finds himself troubled.
For instance, in the morning he always wakes up in Lu Yilin's arms, sprawled on top of him, his waist held so tightly he can't even wriggle free.
And in the car, Lu Yilin kisses him. At first it was only on the forehead, but lately his lips have been bitten until they split.
He feels a little wronged, but he's timid and doesn't dare ask. He quietly puts up with it.
Then one day, Lu Yilin crosses the line again.
Lin Ran's wrist is bruised, his lips are split again, and the back of his neck is red and burning from being sucked and bitten. Deep and shallow tooth marks cover his gland.
Lin Ran covers the swollen, aching gland. His big, bright eyes are full of shyness, confusion, and unease.
"M-Mr. Lu, why do you... keep doing this?"
Lu Yilin speaks calmly, his voice soft and gentle. "Is something wrong?"
Lin Ran: "But the agreement clearly says you're not allowed to..."
Lu Yilin looks as if he's only just remembered. "Oh, so that's the problem."
Lin Ran secretly breathes a sigh of relief. Mr. Lu has finally remembered their agreement.
Lu Yilin unhurriedly opens the bedside table and pulls out the agreement. Right in front of Lin Ran, he tears it in half with a rip. "I really did forget. I forgot to tear up this nuisance."
Lin Ran: "..."
Character dynamic: A gentle gentleman on the surface, but a bandit underneath. He's indifferent to the whole world and tender only to his wife, carefully plotting and hiding his deep devotion. The demon king is the protective one. ✖ A good baby who's obedient and dutiful toward his husband, wanting for nothing because he's short of everything.
