CompletedIn a story, the supporting male role can be an evenly matched opponent, a handy tool person, a brother who shares life and death, or a lifelong enemy that's hard to dispel, the ultimate villain that's difficult to shake off.
But no matter the identity, without exception, they will ultimately become stepping stones on the male protagonist's path to the peak.
Gu Rong has to play such a role in it.
The system, to enhance his supporting male traits, randomly draws one card per world, including but not limited to physique, ability, equipment, alter ego, disguise, and other cards.
In the first world, Gu Rong drew the sex physique.
System: This physique is the most embarrassing existence for you. You have to offer this handle to the male lead, letting him have the chance to break free from your money and power threats.
Gu Rong um ums, then turns around and uses money and power to press the male lead into bed service.
In the second world, Gu Rong drew the mind-reading ability.
System: Use this ability to compete with the male lead for the family property and become the male lead's number one rival!
Gu Rong says okay okay, then turns around and applies the ability to the male lead.
"Brother, look at me. How many times has brother looked at me today?"
"I want to sit on brother's lap. Brother's legs are so hard; it must be very comfortable to sit on, right?"
In the third world, Gu Rong drew the pheromone disorder agent.
System: Who says O is inferior to A! You and the male lead are deadly rivals. Just make him drink this, take advantage of his weakness to end him! Even as an O, you can achieve a chokehold kill on an A!
Gu Rong says wow oh, then turns around and chugs the disorder agent himself.
Then he also achieves the chokehold kill—
Choking the male lead's neck, pressing him against the wall, red-eyed and threatening: "Hurry up! Don't waste words! Are you incapable?! Will you bite me or what?!"
System: ......Wait, why does something seem off?
Gu Rong, with curved brows and eyes: Nah, haven't I "made full use" of it? Ma.
CompletedShen Chu's family had three genius older brothers: one was cold and celibate, the second was sharp-tongued and cunning, and the third had a sky-high IQ. Only Shen Chu was a little fool. He tried hard to be as outstanding as his three brothers, but it turned out the little fool was a fake young master.
The true young master, Xie Shiming, was found when he was young and was more outstanding than everyone else. This triggered Shen Chu's rebellious streak. When his only relative returned to the country wanting to take him away, he didn't go, and ended up 'rolling himself to death' (dying from overwork/stress).
This time, reborn back to his childhood when his fake young master identity was exposed, Shen Chu decided that once his only relative found him, he would go abroad with them.
Before that, Shen Chu took revenge by lying flat and becoming a little 'salted fish' (lazy person).
He got into group fights with other kids at school—
Big brother Shen Shuo looked at him expressionlessly: "What else can you do besides cause trouble?"
Shen Chu puffed out his soft little chest: "Heh, man, stop being duplicitous. I know you're just worried about me."
His little friend wanted to be friends with his handsome second brother—
Second brother Shen Yi scoffed coldly: "I'm not a tool for you to satisfy your vanity."
Shen Chu put his chubby hands on his hips domineeringly: "No way, I won't let your excellence go unnoticed. No more nonsense, I'm letting you show off."
He got the worst score on the in-class test—
Third brother Shen Sui looked at him with an indescribable expression: "Your grades are so bad, what do you even know?"
The chubby cub flopped down: "If I knew everything, what would I need you for? Say no more, I understand you want to tutor me, so I'll graciously grant you the opportunity."
Xie Shiming had suffered a lot at a young age, making him increasingly gloomy, cold, and quiet.
After they started school together, Xie Shiming became his deskmate: "Let's keep our distance."
Shen Chu cupped his chubby face: "No, I like being with you. Kisses, muah!"
Later, his only relative returned to the country to find him, and the troublesome little fool ran away with them.
After that, someone discovered that the fake young master of the Shen family who was driven abroad had actually returned, and couldn't help but sneer: "A cuckoo occupying the nest, and you dare to show your face? Aren't you afraid the Shen family will target you?"
But at Shen Chu's eighteenth birthday party, big brother Shen Shuo gave Shen Chu shares of his own company as a gift, second brother Shen Yi specially rushed back from a film set to celebrate Shen Chu's birthday, and third brother Shen Sui gave Shen Chu the first award-winning robot he made.
And that true young master, Xie Shiming, cornered Shen Chu, trapped him in his arms, and whispered in his ear: "Chuchu, you're an adult now. We can be in a relationship."
