Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

Chi Xing raised an eyebrow and moved closer to Zhao Yuheng.

"You." Yang Jingyun was about to mock Chi Xing, but then he noticed the imposing man beside him.

He forced a kind smile.

"This young master looks very familiar."

Zhao Yuheng had no recollection of this person, so he simply ignored him and left with Chixing in his hand.

As he passed Yang Jingyun, Chi Xing gave him a provocative smile.

Yang Jingyun's smile vanished, and his eyes darkened as he stared in the direction Chi Xing had left.

A thought to 004 in his mind: "Are you sure this guy is the protagonist and not the villain?"

004 remained silent for a while, then firmly stated: [The system has detected that the host harbors thoughts of harming the protagonist. It is recommended that the host stay away from the protagonist to save their life.]

The words had barely left his mouth when Yang Jingyun couldn't help but roar inwardly: [Shut up!]

004: [Host's anger level has been detected to be rising. It is recommended to drink more herbal tea to cool down.]

Yang Jingyun: !! [Your mother's...*￥（＆…％￥E％￥）

004: [Sorry, this command cannot be recognized.]

……

"Pfft, hahaha." Akahoshi couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Zhao Yuheng looked at him in confusion: "Hmm?"

Akahoshi took his arm and buried her face in his shoulder: "No, I just thought of something happy."

250: [So, I told you it's a stupid system; it's not even sure who it'll cause trouble for.]

Looking at it that way, it really is true.

Yang Jingyun glared at Chi Xing and the other two as they walked away, then turned and entered the temple. However, he bumped into a man as soon as he turned around.

His anger reached its peak, and Yang Jingyun opened his mouth and cursed, "Are you blind?"

"Feel sorry."

The man had a gentle and refined appearance, and he apologized to Yang Jingyun with great politeness. Despite being dressed like a noble young master, he adopted a humble attitude.

Yang Jingyun's anger suddenly stopped. He saw clearly the tall man in front of him, with handsome features and a slight smile on his lips, like a warm spring breeze.

However, the voice sounded very familiar.

"No, it's nothing. Are you going in to offer incense?" he asked instinctively.

The man smiled and said, "Yes, I didn't mean to bump into your carriage outside. I will make amends for the damages I caused you."

Yang Jingyun then realized why the voice sounded familiar; it was the person from the carriage earlier.

However, considering how handsome he was, Yang Jingyun decided not to pursue the matter and slightly raised his chin, saying, "I forgive you."

The two walked in together. Yang Jingyun guessed the other person's identity in his mind. 004 said conscientiously:

[Plot update: New character introduced, Zhao Linheng, the main antagonist of this story. He is a two-faced, cruel, and despicable man. Host is advised to stay away.]

Yang Jingyun: ...

He stared silently at Zhao Linheng's face, unable to discern any cruelty in him, but...

[What did you say? Isn't Zhao Linheng the main character? How did he become the main villain?]

Yang Jingyun suspected that this stupid system was deceiving him again.

004: [The plot of this story is subject to change at any time.]

Yang Jingyun: [Who is the main character now?]

004 fell silent, and Yang Jingyun ignored it, joining the main villain in offering incense.

"You live here too? That's perfect, me too. How about we go find a place to stay together?" Zhao Linheng was gentle and polite, hardly the image of a villain.

"Okay, let's go together."

Yang Jingyun, who was obsessed with looks, followed him, trying to decide whether the person in front of him was more handsome or Zhao Yuheng was more handsome.

Suddenly, something came to mind: Zhao Yuheng and Zhao Linheng. He had almost forgotten that the idiotic system had said that these two were brothers. Who was the one who ultimately seized the throne?

Yang Jingyun completely forgot about the villain and was only thinking about who would win in the end, so he would be with that person.

In this way, he becomes the protagonist.

As for Akahoshi... heh, no matter who Akahoshi is with, he has a way to kill Akahoshi.

Upon arriving at his lodgings, Yang Jingyun returned to his room, where Zhao Linheng lived next door.

I sat down and took a sip of water, then heard 004 in my head say: [Content updated. Main character: Akahoshi (top), Main character: Zhao Yuheng (bottom).]

"puff--"

"Cough cough cough..."

Yang Jingyun spat out a mouthful of tea, coughing until his face turned red.

What did you say?

[What do you mean, the seme is Akahoshi? Zhao Yuheng is actually the uke?]

004: [Yes.]

So he and Zhao Yuheng have the same phone number.

Yang Jingyun was shocked and incredulous.

*

The Nanyun Temple was exceptionally quiet at dusk. The sounds of birdsong and insect chirps from the mountains reached Akahoshi's ears, interspersed with a faint sound from the rooftop.

After dinner, Chi Xing and Zhao Yuheng took a walk outside. Not long after, Master Qingchen invited Zhao Yuheng to meet him.

He was a highly accomplished monk, and Zhao Yuheng told Chixing to go back and wait.

As Akahoshi approached the courtyard, a man came out and led him to this somewhat secluded and abandoned hut.

"did you miss me?"

A deep, slightly suggestive voice came from behind Akahoshi. Akahoshi's eyes flashed with disgust. He turned, took a step back from the man, and asked coldly:

"Who are you?"

"Ah."

The man chuckled and took a step forward to grab Akahoshi's hand. Akahoshi stepped back again, ready to kick the man away if he made another move.

The moonlight shone on the person's face, and their eyebrows and eyes bore a resemblance to Zhao Yuheng's, so this person was...

"Zhao Linheng?"

Seeing that he had seen through him, Zhao Linheng chuckled: "It's only been less than two months since we parted, and my Xing'er has already forgotten me."

Chi Xing gritted his teeth, suppressing the urge to vomit. He frowned and said, "Zhao Linheng, you're disgusting. You don't actually think I like you, do you?"

Zhao Linheng was taken aback by these words. He subconsciously reached out and touched his face, then took a step forward.

Akahoshi took two steps back and gestured for him to stop: "Stop, you stink, stay away from me."

"Xing'er, what's wrong? Are you angry with me?" Zhao Linheng frowned, looking heartbroken.

It was as if a deeply affectionate man was heartbroken when his lover spoke ill of him.

"No, this guy is such a good actor, so disgusting." Akahoshi couldn't help but complain to 250.

250 covered her mouth and chuckled: [The original owner liked him this way, which is why he always pretended to be so affectionate.]

Chi Xing's eyes revealed disdain: "Your Highness, I am the current Empress, and by all accounts, I am your sister-in-law. What are you doing?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Linheng understood, but his expression remained one of sorrow.

"Xing'er is really angry. It's my fault. I failed to sit on the throne and Xing'er has suffered this humiliation because of me."

"This is a last resort, Xing'er, don't be angry. When the Japanese king ascends the throne, he will definitely make you empress. At that time, he will carry you into the palace in great style."

Akahoshi rolled her eyes dramatically, thinking to herself, "Wait, did the original owner of this body lose her mind? Ugh..."

He simply couldn't understand how the original owner could have believed such clumsy acting.

I thought I'd be dealing with a cunning jerk, but it turned out to be just this?
