The System Wants Me to Be a Cannon Fodder Male Lead? No Way! Plot:

Lin Chuan, an ordinary office worker, is suddenly bound to the "Mary Sue Cannon Fodder System"—tasked with being the female lead’s simpering suitor and the male lead’s background foil, destined for a miserable end. But he refuses to play by the rules: instead of giving the female lead milk tea to be rejected, he offers his treasured handmade coffee, accidentally hitting her hidden coffee enthusiast soft spot; instead of messing up a project to boost the male lead, he stays up all night refining the proposal and secures a million-dollar order for the company. The system panics with warnings, but Lin Chuan smirks defiantly: "I won’t be cannon fodder in someone else’s story!" As he rewrites the plot step by step, the female lead asks him out for pour-over coffee, the male lead gains respect for him, and even the "screenwriter" behind the system panics—this "uncooperative" cannon fodder is turning himself into the protagonist?
