i love that shen qingqiu (shen yuan edition) is so fixated on the fact he's transmigrated into a stallion novel that he completely misses the extremely early genre shift caused by his presence. it's a late-game revelation that he's moved over to the danmei section, and he's frankly astonished that he's unlocked a male romance route, wow, what a surprise.
meanwhile this whole time, shen qingqiu is out here collecting handsome men like it's going out of goddamn fashion. half the country's Important Figures are madly in love with him. he trips and falls and acquires another male suitor with some tragic link to his past and a complex history.
shen qingqiu is seriously standing around fixating on luo binghe's theoretical harem of women. meanwhile he's got the cultivation world’s Hottest Eligible Bachelors in a state of pure chaos. they are orbiting around him like lost sheep. everywhere he goes he acquires a +10 bonus to homoeroticism and manages to unlock whole new romantic dialogue options. he is at the dead centre of this extremely complex and multidimensional love triangle with zero. visibility. about it.
also, it's extra funny because 14yo luo binghe canonically checks him out and is like "yeah can't complain, he's good looking, not supremely beautiful but you wouldn't kick him out of bed" and then is obsessed with him forever. everyone is obsessed with him forever. turns out that shen qingqiu is a straight up irresistible hottie once he's no longer radiating shen jiu's stinky old cat energy. give the man a snickers bar and a cup of tea to calm down and suddenly he's the world's most in-demand man-on-man bachelor doing constant psychic damage to his myriad suitors through sheer obliviousness
