After traveling through the book, I conquered the male protagonist Long Aotian!

Gu Qingze thought for a moment and felt that he had no other questions to ask. He was about to express his gratitude to Feng Ying for everything he had done and stop asking questions when he suddenly thought of something that concerned him.

He hesitated again and again, but couldn't help asking: "Feng Ying, since each world has a fixed plot, then what kind of existence was in the world I was in before?"

Feng Ying said: "I actually checked this in advance. The world you were in before was also derived from a romance novel. The title of the book is "The Movie King Must Be My Financial Sponsor"."

"And you appeared in a few scenes, making the male and female protagonists jealous and promoting their relationship as cannon fodder."

"You once got the opportunity to play the third male lead in a TV series. The female lead played the second female lead at that time and was in the same crew as you. You fell in love with the female lead at first sight on the set and approached her, although you were unsuccessful."

"But the male lead still found out. As an award-winning actor, he was furious and asked the entertainment industry to ban you, even though he knew the female lead rejected your advances. You had no more movies to shoot and could only work as a bricklayer. Your end was miserable."

"In the end, the hero and heroine were very sweet and happy. The heroine also became a movie queen and won many awards. On the day of the award ceremony, the hero was officially announced. Then they gained a lot of CP fans and lived happily ever after."

Gu Qingze couldn't help but sigh: "Am I such a cannon fodder?"

Soon, he realized that something was wrong: "I did get a chance to play the third male lead once, but that drama ended smoothly, and I didn't have any feelings for the female lead who played the second female lead in that drama..."

Wait a minute, he suddenly remembered... At that time, when he saw Yan Yuewan, who played the second female lead in the drama, his heart ached.

He thought he had a heart problem at the time, so he went to the hospital for a diagnosis. Although no problem was found, he still felt upset when he saw Yan Yuewan afterwards, so he kept his distance from her.

That feeling that made my heart ache...was it love at first sight?

Gu Qingze didn’t understand, but he didn’t need to understand. These were all arranged in the original plot, and he didn’t really like her.

Although the drama ended smoothly, only the second female lead became popular after it was broadcast, and she instantly became a first-line female star.

After that, Gu Qingze had no more contact with her.

After a while, after hitting a wall many times, he felt that he was not suited to being an actor, so he retreated behind the scenes, joined a short drama company, and wrote scripts.

However....he remembered his sudden desire to be an actor, which led him to give up on choosing a more stable profession and job...was that also controlled by the plot?

Maybe... he doesn't like acting at all, he just does it for the plot...

Actually, if you think about it carefully... As an orphan with no one to rely on, in order to live a better life, he should actually choose a stable major, and then choose a stable job after graduation, instead of choosing acting...

So, was he manipulated by the plot to apply for a drama university and become an actor simply because the original plot required him to be an actor and perform that scene with the heroine?

He recalled the surprised looks from other students and the teacher's hesitation when he told him about his ideal, and finally told him to think about it more...

Feng Ying continued, "That's right, you didn't follow the original plot. At that time, when I found out about this, I was a little surprised."

"A character like you who serves as cannon fodder in the original plot is generally not likely to awaken his consciousness and not follow the original plot, especially when that plot is one of the key plots."

"But the facts have proven to me that this is indeed the case. In that crucial plot, you did not follow the established trajectory to get in touch with the heroine too much and then unfold the subsequent plot."

Gu Qingze looked at him, as if to confirm something: "Feng Ying, you know, I just didn't follow the plot in that part, and the rest... were they my personal choices, or were they affected by the plot?"

Feng Ying shook his head: "I don't know about that. The influence of the plot may be subtle. No one can tell whether your personal choice is completely based on your own opinion."

"However, you have left your original world now, so you should not be affected by the plot. From now on, your choices and decisions will be entirely up to you."

Gu Qingze gradually calmed down after hearing this. It's not that he doesn't like acting at all. Even though there is no such profession as actor in this world, he still plays some small games with Ling Xiao to improve his acting skills...

Feng Ying continued, "Although I'm not very clear about what you just asked, when I was looking up relevant information about you, I found something interesting about your parents. It's up to you whether you want to hear it or not."

When Gu Qingze heard the word "parents", he felt mixed emotions. He grew up in an orphanage and had never seen what his parents looked like. He didn't even have the concept of parents. The word "parents" was too unfamiliar to him.

He thought about it for a long time, and finally nodded. He still wanted to know why his biological parents abandoned him. Was it because they had no choice, was there some other hidden reason, or did they simply not want him anymore...

Feng Ying turned his system into a screen again, displaying dense information.

"The reason why I think you're special is because of this reason. Generally speaking, even cannon fodder characters will have a background after the world is formed. In simple terms, they will have parents, but you don't have any."

Gu Qingze couldn't understand what he meant: "You mean... I don't have parents?"

"That's it." Feng Ying magnified a small detail on the screen. "You are just like someone generated by the game. Your birth point is at the gate of the orphanage. You don't have any parents."

Gu Qingze felt a little sad when he heard this. It turned out that he was not abandoned, but he simply had no parents...

It turns out that the parents he once imagined didn't exist at all...Why was the setting given to him so perfunctory?

It's like simply because setting the background is troublesome, so he was born in an orphanage...

Seeing that he was in a bad mood, Feng Ying immediately said, "Your parents don't exist. This is definitely not because you are perfunctory. There must be another hidden reason. This is definitely not to comfort you."

"You must be special, otherwise you would just be cannon fodder in the original plot and there is no way you can escape the plot... And I said, you are the only one who can successfully cross from one world to another without the help of external forces."

Feng Ying continued, "Actually, I have a guess, but there is no definite evidence yet, and it involves some core things, so I won't talk about it for now."

"But you are indeed special. Not just anyone can join my force. I made an exception to let you join because of your specialness. I am willing to spend half of the system's energy for you. I did all this because I saw your value."

Gu Qingze said seriously: "Feng Ying, thank you."

"This is the second time you've expressed your gratitude to me." Feng Ying seemed to be simply stating a fact, but also seemed to be expressing some emotion.
