Time travel: Are you as professional as him in eating dog food?

There was a sound of footsteps coming from the corridor. If Qiu Yu was in the corridor now, she would see the skinny figure of the boy, running towards her room like a frightened little animal.

The door of the room closed with a bang. In the quiet room, there was only tranquility and the boy's heart beating wildly.

The sound of "Gada, Gada" rang in his mind again. The young man ran to the table in panic, picked up the teapot on the table, poured himself a glass of water, and gulped it down.

[Eh~ This is the only thing the host can do. This really disappoints this system.]

"You're disappointed, don't you know that he... is... really beyond imagination?" The boy refuted the system in his mind while panting after drinking the water.

[So, host, you were scared away? ]

Xiao Mian, a certain system, who was watching the show while eating melon seeds, inadvertently asked the truth.

"Bullshit... I was just... shocked for a moment. Yes, I was shocked, but I wasn't scared." The boy stammered in his reply.

[If you have the guts, go back. You stink so bad. It’s a good time to go wash yourself. If you have the guts, go ahead.]

"Hey! I have such a bad temper, so I have to..."

The boy was so excited that he raised his butt and was about to walk to the door, but suddenly a picture popped up in his mind: behind the steamy water, a pair of narrow and long smiling eyes stared at him, but his hands were pressing his head into the water without any care...

The raised foot slowly lowered, and the hand that was about to be stretched out slowly retracted. The boy turned around and sat back in the chair in a depressed mood.

[What's wrong? This system knows that you were scared away by him]

"Hmm..." A muffled sound came out of the boy's mouth.

The dog food system Xiaomian seemed to notice that his host was in a bad mood, and carefully put away the melon seeds [Host...are you okay?]

"Um...."

[Then what's wrong with you? Tell us and the system will help you analyze it.]

"You said... are there really such moody people? Just... like the kind who can be laughing and joking in the last second, and the next second, if he is unhappy, he will kill you. I feel a little disappointed and a little scared. I still think he is very handsome..."

[Host, do you know what this is called? ]

The boy did not answer, but just shook his head gloomily.

[I’ll give you a sentence: Youthful feelings are always spring, no need to thank me]

"Bullshit, I'm almost 25, and I still have the sentimentality of a teenager, what the hell do you want?" The voice that only belongs to a teenager completely broke out at this moment, and kept shouting

[Then I will give you another sentence: A man is a boy until he dies.]

"You..." The boy was speechless for a moment, sitting on the chair with an ugly face as if he had eaten dog shit. Although he and you don't want to admit it, who doesn't like to be younger?

[Alright] System Xiaomian clapped her hands and continued to say in the boy's mind [Host, let's get to the point]

The boy nodded, poured himself another glass of water and drank it, then asked the first question: "Then tell me, is he... a man?"

Bingo, yes.

"Then why didn't you remind me? You kept saying it was so white... It made me so embarrassed." The boy asked with a bad face.

[First of all, host, you didn’t ask me, okay? Secondly, when I said he was so white, I meant the skin behind his neck and his underwear. Don’t mess with my imagination. I’m afraid that the system general committee will judge it as a violation. Also, it was you who insisted on thinking that people with long hair are women. What can I do?]

"Then... as your binder, you also have obligations." The boy retorted stubbornly.

[OK, then as a half-finished binding system, I will explain it to you in detail... Okay]

"That's more like it. Go ahead." The young man supported the table with his hands, looking serious.

In the following time, System Xiaomian really introduced this world to him seriously:

In the system's mouth, this world is simply a physically and mentally abusive novel.

The male protagonist Wen Yi in the book has complicated feelings towards the protagonist, a mixture of love and hate. The hatred is like a powder keg that can be ignited at any time, and the relationship between the two is becoming increasingly distant.

Driven by the double stimulation, the hero rushed into the hall like an angry lion and started killing people. Everyone became his dead soul under his knife, even the protagonist was not spared.

Finally, in the presence of other survivors, he ascended the throne and began a reign that lasted more than a decade.

And you, Wen Baixu, a single man in the 21st century, are like an abandoned child of fate, and you accidentally traveled into this novel...

"Wait~ So don't say I'm one of the protagonists. No, my original self is the protagonist." The boy quickly interrupted the description in his mind.

[Yes, you are the protagonist]

The young man froze on the spot when he heard this. This was the first time he hated this identity so much. Although he always envied those who could be the protagonist, this time he really didn't want to be... the protagonist

"I refuse. I can be a minor supporting role, a supporting role who really sacrifices for the justice of the protagonist..." As he was speaking, he suddenly thought of something. This description seemed familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere. Where?

[Silly host, have you forgotten that you finished filming the scene after just one day of shooting? ]

System Xiaomian seemed to understand what he was thinking, and for the first time answered him with contempt.

"Yes... it's that movie. The last shot you mentioned was... wait a minute, are you looking down on me? It only took one day to shoot." The boy stopped and asked excitedly.

[No... How is that possible? The host is overthinking.]

"Tsk~ I don't want to bother with you, but isn't that the Queen? Why do you call me the Ninth Prince?" The man who was originally depressed suddenly seemed to be turned on by a switch, and stood up excitedly and was about to take off his clothes.

[Hey! Host, please don't do anything that's offensive to the eyes]

"Hey, since I'm the queen, am I...dressed as a man? I want to see, I want to see." As she pulled open her clothes, revealing her flat area, the young man took a look and although he was a little disappointed, he still murmured.

"It's okay, even though I have a flat chest, I can still develop it again... It's okay... Yeah."

He put on his clothes, sat at the table, and talked to himself with a comforting look on his face.

"Although there is no benefit from wearing it, and she will be stabbed to death in the end, which is a bit disappointing, but after all... it is a bit of a benefit, as the empress rules the world. A lean camel is bigger than a horse. I still remember that there was a hidden line in the drama with her female official. The female official had a good figure, and the empress also had a good figure. So since... should I find some papaya to eat, although papaya should not be available in this era..."

[Host, please stop your unrealistic fantasies]

The boy came to his senses in an instant, looked ahead in confusion, and waited for the system to say

[Please respect the original work. Yours is a pirated version. If you don't adapt it, do you think it will pass the review? ]

"Huh? What do you mean?"

[What does it mean? It means that your version is the original one, so you should follow the original one.]

"So I have to go to all those love-hate games you just talked about? And my opponent is really a man?" The young man asked blankly, as if he was struck by lightning.

[Yes, in the original novel, the protagonist is a man, the admirer is also a man, and the one at the end...]

Before System Xiao Mian finished speaking, she heard the boy slap the table.

[Host, you.....] System Xiao Mian was obviously frightened and swallowed her saliva

"So according to what you said, I had that kind of relationship with him, but I was still killed, right?"

[Yes, that’s how the original work is written]

"Damn, isn't this a huge loss? If you love me, you should love me till the end. What's the point of stabbing me halfway through your love? A scumbag is just..."

The boy stood up suddenly, pointed his finger at the table, and suddenly froze, then said slowly:

"Can I change that? For example..."

[You really love him]

"Go to hell, according to what you said, even if he loves me, it's only in the later stage. In the early stage, at best he just has some feelings for me, right...

[Well, the host is really smart, but you can’t stop fate when it comes]

"..."

What does it mean?

The system raised questions in his mind

"Well, I've decided."

The boy raised his fist with a determined look and said

[Are you ready to follow him? ]

The young man fell weakly on the chair with a thud, complaining with a look of disappointment, "Are you talking like a human being? Even though I know you are a bitch, you can't be so bitch. What I mean is to arrange a heroine who loves him for him and give him a happy life. Is that okay? I have done a good deed."

[Uh, according to what the host said, that is not allowed, you are O~O~C~]

"But I'm a straight man, I...I don't like men," the boy retorted loudly.

[But host, you are the protagonist now. If you are OOC, your life will be in danger.]

"Then I force myself on you? Isn't that awkward? They'll probably see through it right away."

The boy rubbed his hands and said nervously

[Uh, I can’t control this. I’m just a weak and helpless system that collects dog food all day long and is satisfied as long as they show affection. Dog food is hard currency to me.]

"So I have to satisfy you, or the 'person' in the plot is OOC, is that okay?" the boy asked, supporting his head.

[Um~ I don’t know, and I won’t tell you. But if you do anything illegal, Xiao Mian will notify you. Please rest assured, Xiao Mian is a professional.]

After silently complaining in his heart, he continued, "What is the favorability value you mentioned in the carriage before, and who is the target audience?"

[The favorability value refers to the degree of favorability of the person you are in contact with towards you. The favorability level is directly proportional to your health value. If the favorability value drops too low, it may trigger the death mode or unknown mode. However, if the favorability value can be maxed out, this person will always be in your camp and protect you.]

"In the carriage?"

[Yes, host. The reminder on the carriage is because the system has detected that Qiuyu's favorability towards you has turned negative, so it reminds you.]

"You said it would trigger death, but I'm fine now," he said, pinching his cheeks.

[Host, that is true, but because your last behavior caused one of the supporting characters to be disgusted and ignored, it raised the secret love pleasure of the secret admirer, so the few negative points were brought back.]

"Secret love? What is that?" the boy asked in confusion.

[It is a kind of judgment for secret admirers. It means that if the person you secretly love cares about suddenly behaves in a way that causes the secret lover to feel disgusted or hate you, it will stimulate the pleasure level. The pleasure level is directly equivalent to the secret love value. When the secret love value reaches a spiritual point, it will trigger the confession. If the confession is successful, the host can get 2.5 dog food. If you are the one who brings them together, you can get 8-5 dog food. If the confession fails, your dog food will not be deducted. But if you are the one who interferes, then the dog food will be doubled.]

"Double? But didn't you say in this world..."

[Double the amount of deduction for your appearance value...If you follow the host's example, this system can determine your death in a matter of minutes after a while]

"Appearance?" The young man stood up and walked to the wash basin, looking at his face in the mirror, and said, "Do you think my current appearance, which is pale and thin, can be improved?"

[Yes, disfigured]

"Fuck, then I'm really ugly, right?" The boy was like a firecracker that would catch fire at any time.

[Host, don’t be angry. You asked me this, and I answered you for free.]

"Why do you still charge?"

[Uh, forget it, it’s still under explanation anyway, so I can’t charge for it]

"Then what are you talking about? By the way, you have said so much, is there anything else you should pay attention to?" The boy slowly sat on the bed, crossed his legs and asked

[Hmm~ You finally got the point:

First; your mission here is not only to earn dog food and win big prizes, but also to dig out the hidden clues.]

"What do you mean?"

[In addition to the interweaving of love and hate, there are also the grievances of the fathers and the revenge of the murder of the mother]

"The hatred of the fathers? The murder of the mother?"

[Bingo, the host is really smart, that's it. Apart from the love story, this is the biggest highlight of this book. However, the author didn't make it clear what was going on until the end. Moreover, the revenge for the murder of the mother only appeared in one paragraph, and then it ended hastily. It is commonly known as digging a hole but not filling it, which led to this situation.]

"So, I want to dig out the truth and give him the truth, right?" The boy nodded and said while shaking his legs.

[Yes, this is the main quest, but there are also side quests. I will not inform you of them for now. Xiao Mian will inform the host when the time comes.]

The boy nodded, motioning him to continue.

[Second: Change or, in other words, resolve your own death crisis without being ooc]

The boy nodded in understanding.

[Third: Before reaching the ending, if you earn 81 dog food or max out your favorability... that is, if you are with the hero, you can return to the real world and get a big gift package.]

"What's in the gift bag?" the boy asked

[A great gift package for reaching the pinnacle of life or a great gift package for wealth]

"OK, didn't you say you have a set meal? Tell me about the rest."

【......】

After waiting for a while, the boy said impatiently: "Hey, you are silent, do you mean this is the only set meal?"

【Yes】

"Hey! You answered pretty quickly."

【Isn’t that because you are asking me?】

"Oh, forget it." The boy waved his hand and continued, "Then what is his...favorability score?"

[Host, what are you talking about? ]

"Don't play dumb, you know who I'm talking about"

[Um, the system cannot tell you at the moment, please host...]

"Can't tell or don't know, tell me" asked calmly

【have no idea】

"Why didn't you say it earlier? What a waste of time. What about the others?" The boy sighed and fell on the bed.

System Xiaomian gave him a special answer on this question.

"So the current situation is: Qiuyu's favorability is slightly higher than her sister's, the dead man's whereabouts are unknown, and everything else except the people he came into contact with is unknown."

[Yes, and the host is not called the dead man, his name is Gu Yanming, he is the imperial teacher of your dynasty]

"So is he good or bad?"

[I can only say that he is neither good nor bad, but he has an unshirkable responsibility for the death of your original body.]

"What do you mean?" The young man sat up with a somersault.

[This... If I were to explain it, it would be a long story, and the host will understand it later, but he is indeed a rare and good partner.]

"But... he's a little hard to control, his personality is like the weather." The boy was a little confused.

[But even so, is there anything scarier than death? ]

The boy compared the two silently in his mind and made up his mind, "You are right." But he seemed to remember something and sat down.

【What's wrong with the host】

The boy looked at the flat area and the slightly fleshy area, sniffed sadly and said, "What is this? This is simply a critical hit. I don't want to turn the expected 36 into a pile of buried meat."

[Don't worry, host, if your appearance can improve, you will have eight-pack abs in no time.]

"Okay, then tell me how to improve..." Then he lay down on the bed again.

【Good host...】
