The Most Innocent Gangster Ever

Synopsis

A system malfunction sends Ao Chen, a world-hopping contractor, into the body of his mission target, complicating an already delicate assignment. Once he regains his original form, he discovers that the target is being pursued by a volatile individual named Huo Jingyao. Driven by a desire to ensure the target's safety and happiness, Ao Chen steps in to eliminate the threat, only to find himself repeatedly rescuing the broken and bruised boss from the brink of collapse. The situation spirals into a confusing cycle of emotional attachment, as Huo Jingyao becomes deeply enamored with the persona Ao Chen inhabited. The prose maintains a light, chaotic energy, escalating through absurd coincidences and romantic tension rather than heavy drama. It offers a breezy experience that rewards those who enjoy identity confusion and the friction of reluctant companionship. However, those seeking intricate world-building or a grounded plot may find the whimsical nature of the system errors and sudden shifts in affection a bit too superficial.
