Why Is the "Loser" Ex So Charming?

Lin Can is an honest, slow-moving man who knows the tragic fate of the character he's inhabiting but never considers taking shortcuts to please anyone. Even when his wife, who wants a divorce, turns out to be Ran Yang—one of the story's protagonists—he quietly accepts it and silently works to change. Outraged fans: Fine, you’re honest! We’ll let you off this time! —— Months later, the topic of popular male star Ran Yang and her ex-husband appearing together on a dating show explodes across social media. Fans who expected the ex-husband to crash and burn in a fiery pursuit of love watch the livestream—only to regret it terribly afterward. Wait! Nobody said Ex-Hubby had the face of a manga character! With looks like that, why were you so *boringly* honest?! —— Q: Is it too late to win Ex-Hubby back now? A: You’d better ask if a certain big shot—currently clinging to him—would even allow it. —— Qi Yuan has taken a liking to a man. Bad news: He’s married. Good news: He’s about to get divorced! Even better news: His ex-wife works for Qi Yuan’s family company! Qi Yuan grins triumphantly: *Your husband’s fine, but soon he’ll be mine.* Goodbye, tasteless fool! —— Honest top × Ruthlessly scheming bottom One wants a peaceful life, the other flaunts their love for the whole world to see. —— Upcoming: *Homophobic Straight Man, Expert Matchmaker* Lin Han is drop-dead gorgeous but has the worst attitude—the only reason he hasn’t been beaten to death by twenty is sheer good looks. After transmigrating into a novel, he pisses off the system explaining his mission within three minutes. All he knows is that he’s a cannon fodder tasked with matchmaking two men to survive. Lin Han, who spends 25 hours a day hating on gays: *Fuck this!* He’d rather die. * Yet cannon fodders have it rough—everyone bullies him mercilessly. After enduring endless frustration, the disgruntled young master storms into the male lead’s dorm and drags him out. Lin Han: *You! Kiss him!* Male Lead: ??? Cowering in the corner, the other male lead: *Whimpering…* * Despite forcing kiss after kiss, Lin Han remains stuck with no way back. He snaps: *Stupid fucking system!* The male leads—who’ve only just met—protest: *Feelings take time to develop!* Grumbling loudly, Lin Han reluctantly agrees to give them space—but insists on micromanaging their dates for efficiency. Though reluctant, the male leads cave under Lin Han’s terrifying glare. * The chronically homophobic Lin Han grimaces through arranging their dates, aiming for marriage within two months so he can leave the day they get their license. But could a certain guy—claiming to adore the male lead—stop getting in his way?! —— Wen Jin has never met someone like this—a face that weakens knees paired with a venomous tongue that flares tempers instantly. Born into privilege, he avoids pointless hardships, yet one glance at that face has him utterly bewitched. But Lin Han’s deep-seated homophobia radiates disgust whenever Wen Jin approaches. When Wen Jin discovers his WeChat nickname—“*Fucking Gay*”—he’s equal parts furious and amused. Perfect. He *loves* a challenge. PS: The lead isn’t refined, and the love interest is no saint—both are terrible people. Proceed with caution. Homophobia leads to... [well, you know].
