For most of her life, Xihua has had anything but an ordinary existence. As a goddess, she was once the Heavenly Emperor; as a mortal, she was worshipped on an altar. And when she found herself saddled with a child, her ex-husband dragged her onto a grueling quest to uncover the truth behind the war between gods and demons a thousand years ago. After a lifetime of toil, she wants neither riches nor glory. She just wants to be a lazy nobody to the very end.
Jiushao has spent his life worrying about the nation and its people, crushed by the weight of responsibility until he feels he could go mad. His only joy is chasing after Xihua. Across heaven and earth, through three lives among humans, gods, and demons, one thing never changes: his wholehearted, hopelessly lovestruck devotion to her.
Every seemingly heartless scheme hides a depth of love he cannot bring himself to express.
A lazy goddess who disguised herself as a boy from childhood and rose to become Heavenly Emperor × the sharp-witted, handsome, and formidable young lord of the Phoenix clan, whose tragic fate depends on how he handles himself
Lighthearted with a touch of angst (a little heartbreak is good for you!)
