The Gloomy Passerby Doesn't Want to Be Liked

Xie Fan suffers from face blindness—and then transmigrates into a folk-horror novel he once read. The good news is that he is only a passerby. The bad news is that this particular passerby is disposable cannon fodder who dies almost as soon as he appears. In the original story, the gloomy, long-haired Xie Fan falls at first sight for Shen Xun, the protagonist shou who has secretly been chosen as a god’s bride. That earns him the deity’s hatred—and a miserable death. Xie Fan is terrified of dying and even more terrified of ghosts. So when Shen Xun and his companions arrive at the remote village, he shuts his door and decides to stay as far away from the plot as possible. He doesn’t notice the strange idol in his room opening an eye after he closes his own. Nor does he expect the outsiders to start paying attention to him. Then a pale red mark appears on his lower back. The next morning, Xie Fan discovers that he is pregnant. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: The Gloomy Passerby Doesn't Want to Be Liked — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
