Jiang Yumo was a background character, not even a proper villain. He had only a few lines and was easily killed off like a disposable extra.
One day, Jiang Yumo awakened. Most people might try to please the male lead, but Jiang Yumo was born rebellious. He went all-in on one path, transforming from a background character into a full-blown villain, wiping out the protagonist group until only the male lead remained. If he hadn’t been backstabbed by someone he liked, this story could have been renamed “The Legend of Jiang Yumo.” Even so, he was quite satisfied.
But then, he was reborn and bound to a system.
Jiang Yumo: I’m the true child of destiny!
System: I’m the “Helping Others for Fun” system. Please be a good person. Start by helping an elderly lady cross the street.
Jiang Yumo: …Get lost!
System: Task failure will result in random punishments, including but not limited to shaking hands with Gu Yu, hugging him, showing affection publicly, feeding him candy by hand… Gu Yu is the male lead.
Jiang Yumo: …Maybe I should just die.
One day, the protagonist group is reborn. They hate and fear Jiang Yumo, determined to ruin him! They watch as Gu Yu grabs Jiang Yumo by the neck, expecting triumph, only to witness a shocking scene: he actually kisses him!
Gu Yu has been reborn, returning to a time before everything happened. This time, he plans to protect everyone and let Jiang Yumo suffer the consequences. That was the plan, until it derailed. Jiang Yumo’s mere presence drives Gu Yu wild, and Jiang Yumo’s defiance and stubbornness reignite the frozen fire in his heart.
Gu Yu’s twisted inner voice: Yes! That’s it! You can only look at me! Only at me!
Jiang Yumo: …Thanks, but all I want in this life is to lie flat.
