Can Even a Background Character Become the Male Lead?!

Lin Shuo is an utterly ordinary high school student: ordinary grades, ordinary looks, ordinary athletic ability, and an utterly ordinary presence. He blends into the background when walking down the street, and even the vending machines by the roadside stand out more than he does.

Then, by sheer chance, he discovers that his favorite light novel author is none other than Jiang Xuezhen, the most beautiful girl in the entire school.

After learning that Lin Shuo is her devoted reader, Jiang Xuezhen makes him an offer: keep her identity a secret, and in exchange, help her create her next work.

But Lin Shuo never imagined that this so-called "helping with the writing" would mean becoming the protagonist of her next novel.

And so, the moment ordinary high school student Lin Shuo agrees to Jiang Xuezhen's terms, his everyday life officially comes to an end. In its place begins a story whose ending even he cannot foresee, one titled "The Ordinary Male Protagonist."
