Thinking that he had bought a “perfect and worry-free package,” he didn’t expect to end up with an extremely! Troublesome! And! Annoying! person!

This troublemaker is highly professional, he will do the things seriously when he takes money from others. With the demeanor of an experienced actor, he presents various professionally researched melodramatic plans for the CEO to choose from.

Troublemaker: “Mr. Yan, I would like to discuss with you the setup of our love story. Would you prefer a version where we love and hate each other, or a version where we fall deeply in love at first sight?”

CEO: “...”

Troublemaker: “I understand, you like something more exciting, like a Christmas night gift play?”

CEO: “Shut up.”

When the CEO is forced to put on a show in front of his parents:

CEO: “Why don’t you just sleep honestly and instead jump around on my bed?”

Troublemaker: “I am showcasing your bravery to your mother!”

CEO: ...

As the CEO gradually becomes attracted to the troublemaker:

Secretary: “Sir, the Madam has taken the one million yuan check you signed for him and went to see your white moonlight.”

CEO: “Oh, did he take it to act out the scene ‘Take one million and leave my husband’?”

Secretary: “No, he told your white moonlight that he would give him thirty million yuan, and he immediately left...”

CEO: “@#￥%...! Bring him back to me!”

Fu Shen knew about his background long ago and had been plotting for many years for this reason.

He agreed to Tang Zhou’s harsh demands, pretended to be harmless, and kept a low profile.

His original plan was to turn around and leave naturally after the deed was done.

Forced to go on a blind date, he comes face-to-face with the cold and handsome Xi Xianqing.

This proud and haughty jewellery designer has a spiritual form as a green peac*ck that cannot naturally spread its tail.

Xi Xianqing said coldly, “I’ll help you with your aunt, you’ll help me with my spiritual form. A marriage agreement benefits us both, and we can divorce after a year.”

Zhu Ming’s past profession made him drawn to challenging cases involving spiritual forms, and he saw Xi Xianqing as a compelling candidate for experimentation.

Zhu Ming smiled. “Let’s see how it goes.”

Later in their marriage, Zhu Ming developed a highly-effective medicine, which Xi Xianqing took for months, but the peac*ck showed no change.

Zhu Ming devised a new form of mental treatment. After several treatments, the peac*ck remained unable to shake even a single feather.

—Until a certain c*cktail party, the completely drunk Zhu Ming smiled as he hooked his arm around Xi Xianqing’s neck and, in front of the crowd, gave him a passionate kiss that echoed.

Once Zhu Ming sobered up, he was hit with a splitting headache. “…Sorry, I’m really bad at holding my liquor.”

Xi Xianqing remained silent for a while before saying, “Next time, please drink more responsibly,” and then walked away.

Zhu Ming was upset with himself for having crossed the line.

He sighed and looked down through the window, happening upon an expressionless Xi Xianqing in the garden.

One day, Chi Zhou has a “car accident” and ends up in the hospital.

His nemesis, Lu Shen, pays him a visit.

Chi Zhou, with a sly grin, points to his head: “Sorry, I’ve lost my memory. Who are you?”

Lu Shen looks at the minor scr*pe on Chi Zhou’s head – barely enough to warrant a Band-Aid.

Then he counters: “Don’t remember? I’m your boyfriend.”

Chi Zhou: “?”

Damn, Lu Shen, you’d stoop that low just to mess with me?

Chi Zhou sneers internally.

Fine, pretending to be gay just to mess with me? Let’s see who wins this game.

—Because everyone knows Lu Shen is a bona fide straight guy.

From that moment, Chi Zhou gained a “boyfriend.”

And soon, everyone was shocked to see that Chi Zhou had changed.

He started showing up everywhere with Lu Shen, clinging to him, calling him "ge", holding hands, even changing his profile picture and social media banner to cozy photos of him and Lu Shen.

People even witnessed Chi Zhou warding off Lu Shen’s admirers on the basketball court, drinking from Lu Shen’s water bottle, and innocently asking, “What’s wrong, Ge? Aren’t we a couple?”

Everyone around was so stunned they dropped their basketballs.

Lu Shen’s Adam’s apple bobbed slightly, but he calmly replied, “Of course, babe, you can do whatever you want.”

Chi Zhou, caught off guard by that “babe”: “…”

Damn it, almost got played by this jerk!

Chi Zhou never imagined that this time, his scheme would end up trapping him, too.

Afterward, he fumed more and more, finally kicking Lu Shen off the bed with a shout: “I’ve regained my memory. We’re breaking up. Right now!”

Leticia whispered, leaning her forehead against his chest.

"As expected, is it too far? Should I get closer?"

Dietrian barely swallowed a groan. His hand grasping Leticia's shoulder was shaking with a sweet faze, but she didn't notice.

"I know that you’re uncomfortable. But please bear with me until my mother comes."

Dietrian hated Leticia. It was natural as Leticia's mother killed his family. She had never doubted the fact.

So she didn't know, how badly his face was distorted by her words.

“You just have to put up with me for half a year. Then, I will divorce you as you wish.”

“I’m… I’m sorry. I panicked because it felt like everything was exposed…”

“If you want to do this right, relax your jaw first.”

Before she could even finish her sentence, his long arms pulled her waist in close, and he hungrily claimed Joo-eun’s lips with his own. Overwhelmed by the sudden rush of heat and sensation, her wide eyes fluttered helplessly, unsure of what to do.

Today, I was doing the stealing that the system told me to do to avoid a bad ending…

“Gotcha.”

“Huh?”

I was caught by Inspector Raven Hunt, the investigator who was persistently pursuing me.

[Enter the bad ending route.]

Liang Xusheng, pressured by his mother for years to get married, finally snapped one day. He slammed his hand on the table and declared to his best friend, Lu Xun, "Your mom's hounding you to get married, my mom's hounding me to get married. Your mom wants you to find someone from a similar background, my mom wants me to find someone no worse off than our family. Our moms are best friends, and we're practically childhood sweethearts. Let's just get married!"... more>>

Lu Xun was silent for three seconds. On the fourth, he nodded. "Okay, let's get married."

Liang Xusheng thought marrying his bro Lu Xun meant freedom from his mother's nagging and a blissful continuation of his otaku lifestyle, filled with anime and games. He couldn't have been more wrong.

Little did he know that the small changes he made to decorate their marital home, perfectly in line with both their tastes, actually hit the bullseye of Lu Xun's ideal vision of a home.

The few meals he cooked for Lu Xun, waiting for him to come home and eat together, aligned perfectly with Lu Xun's yearning for married life.

Even his accidentally exposed long, fair legs happened to be exactly Lu Xun's aesthetic preference.

As a result, while Liang Xusheng remained relatively unfazed by married life, Lu Xun, right under his nose, had fallen head over heels in love.

I would thank him through the door, and he would always reply, “You’re welcome.”

One night, I woke up in the middle of the night and suddenly felt someone silently staring at me from the edge of the bed. Terrified, I screamed.

But he was even more frightened than I was, stumbling and scrambling to flee.

Later, I invited him to go on a trip with me.

He leaned against the crack of the door, shaking his head, “N-no… no…”

Frustrated, I said, “You’re definitely coming with me this time.”

From the door crack, he slid out a photo of himself along with 100,000 yuan. In a cautious voice, he said, “Take my photo with you. That way, it’ll feel like I’m right there with you.” <<less
