Why are you all trying to win over me, the male supporting character?

It wasn't that he truly considered Lin Chen a brother; he was simply afraid that Lin Chen would cause trouble.

He, Lu Chengzhou, just wanted to survive until the very end.

No one can sabotage his path to survival!

"The male lead probably won't be spineless enough to run back, right?"

"No, probably not."

"He's extremely proud."

Based on his understanding of Lin Chen's character, if no one knew about his running away from home, he might secretly go back.

However, now that Lu Chengzhou knows, Lin Chen will probably stick to his guns to the end for the sake of saving face.

If Lin Chen can hold out a little longer, the Jiang family's scheme to seize their inheritance will fall apart.

The original novel doesn't go into detail why Master Lin suddenly and resolutely refused the marriage proposal. It only says that after the business banquet in Yicheng, Master Lin changed his mind, and the Jiang family also agreed to give up the marriage alliance.

The plot may seem illogical at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it is quite intriguing.

Jiang Heng is a man who is only interested in profit!

Before agreeing to treat Mr. Lin, they will definitely sign an agreement and ensure that their interests are protected before taking action.

If the Lin family hadn't seized his weakness, how could he have so easily given up his plan to annex the Lin family?

"At first, I thought I should save Master Lin before Jiang Aiyu did."

"However, I never had the chance to meet Jiang Aiyu, nor did I acquire the medical skills to save lives, so this path was blocked."

"I also didn't get the chance to meet Master Lin, nor did I obtain conclusive evidence of Jiang Heng's treacherous intentions. Therefore, the path of revealing the conspiracy in advance is also a dead end."

"My low social status has its disadvantages; it will be very difficult for me to get involved in the male and female leads' storyline."

"However, at least Lin Chen managed to escape the marriage."

"As long as he doesn't marry Jiang Aiyu, the plot can still be saved."

Thinking of this, Lu Chengzhou sat up.

A sudden inspiration struck me, and everything became clear.

It's important to understand that the plot of a novel serves the male and female protagonists, and theoretically, all the supporting male and female characters also serve them.

With the male and female leads in a stable and happy relationship, the supporting characters are also safe and sound.

If the two of them start fighting, it will be a situation where gods fight and mortals suffer.

Upon closer reflection, the number of supporting characters in the original work who suffered misfortune because of their conflict is countless; some lost limbs, and others even lost their lives...

The reason this part of the plot in the original work is so frustrating is because of the appearance of Jiang Aiyu.

The arranged marriage reignited long-standing tensions between the two of them.

Lin Chen was indecisive, spending his days drinking and getting drunk, ruining his own life and then his own father!

Su Qiaoman, on the other hand, plays the role of a bitter and resentful person all day long, making herself miserable and then making the supporting characters miserable!

Is this supposed to be enjoyable?

This is so frustrating!

In Lu Chengzhou's view, doing this would only lengthen the story and elicit some tears from the older generation, and would have no other value.

To meet the requirement of a deeply abusive love story, the author went to great lengths to create a brutal and angsty atmosphere.

Therefore, no matter how far the relationship between the male and female leads is developing, as long as Jiang Aiyu does not successfully intervene in their relationship, the plot will be considered successfully changed.

Remove the melodramatic and heart-wrenching elements and move towards a more enjoyable and satisfying story!

The greatest value of supporting characters is to help the main characters solve their problems, isn't it?

"So, the only thing I can do now is to provide support to the male lead and, if necessary, financial assistance, to make him more determined to run away from the wedding and hold out until after the business banquet in Yicheng."

"As for the female lead..."

Thinking of Su Qiaoman's strange appearance, Lu Chengzhou rubbed his forehead and shook his head.

Forget it, he'd better just ignore her.

If you finally manage to get rid of her, it will be troublesome if she gets bothered again.

Of all the girls around him, the one he least wanted to be around was this female lead.

The main reason is that the original work left him with too much psychological trauma.

……

the next day.

……

Lin Chen arrived at the classroom looking disheveled.

After spending a few days in an internet cafe, I was covered in the smell of secondhand smoke from other people.

When he saw Lu Chengzhou, he lowered his head in a rare display of self-consciousness.

When he saw Meng Wanyu again, he shuddered once more.

The thought of wearing a maid outfit made him feel worse than dead.

Of course, on the other hand, the world is very open nowadays, and men dressing as women is no longer shocking news.

Our great Mr. Lu Xun also said that this is a great art.

Unfortunately, not everyone can accept this.

Lin Chen, in particular, was someone he absolutely could not accept.

He's a total straight man!

Making him wear women's clothes and fawn over male customers is practically asking for trouble.

However, he dared not run away.

Meng Wanyu assigned two tall, burly black men to watch over him at the door around the clock, ensuring he dutifully fulfilled his promise.

For the past two days, he has been thinking about escaping and going home every single moment!

Let alone marrying this expressionless woman, even marrying a dinosaur would be better than wearing a maid outfit and serving someone else.

Unfortunately, it was too late!

There's no going back in life.

Now he can only think positively: at least Meng Wanyu's library provides room and board, and he can even get some tips occasionally...

Lu Chengzhou found Lin Chen's expression quite strange.

Is he traumatized while living away from home?

In this vast city of Yi, how many people could cause Young Master Lin such a great shock?

With that thought in mind, Lu Chengzhou's gaze fell on Meng Wanyu beside him.

Meng Wanyu smiled, her eyes narrowing.

"What's wrong, Lu? Did you miss me?"

"...No, not really."

Lu Chengzhou coughed lightly, turned his head, and looked at the blackboard.

It's highly likely that Meng Wanyu was behind this.

However, if thanks to her, the male protagonist can behave himself and wait obediently until the business banquet in Yicheng ends, then he will still thank her properly.

"Lu, how about we hook up after school today?"

"Um?!"

She said this quite loudly.

The male and female protagonists in the front row both heard it.

Su Qiaoman sat up straight immediately, her fingers gripping the pen tightly.

Lin Chen reacted similarly to her.

However, the two of them had completely different thoughts.

"No! They can't go on a date! My Ah Zhou, waaaaah..." Su Qiaoman's mind was practically playing the background music of "A Cut Plum Blossom".

Snowflakes are falling~

The north wind is howling~

Cough cough cough...

"Damn it, is Meng Wanyu deliberately trying to humiliate me by bringing Lu Chengzhou along?" Lin Chen was both shocked and scared: "How am I ever going to be able to hold my head up in public again?"

They glanced at each other simultaneously.

Then, I secretly looked back.

All three people's eyes immediately focused on Lu Chengzhou.

He scratched the back of his head in confusion.

As for dating, forget it.

With that time, why not...

"If you want to make an appointment, I'll give you this amount."

Meng Wanyu made a heart-shaped hand gesture.

"Lu, you won't refuse, right?"

Lu Chengzhou was moved to tears.

He wanted to refuse, but she was offering just too much...

064. This is pure masochistic personality.
