Synopsis

Episodic, gong-focused, 1v1 + somewhat long and slow-burn

Do people only realize they regret something after they’ve lost it?

There will always be people in this world who are heartless and greedy, whose eyes are clouded by desire, so they can’t see the person who loves them, or even see themselves…

205 had originally planned to toss them all into an incinerator, but suddenly received a request, from the very person they had let down.

At first:

Yun Muhan: How could I possibly fall in love with someone?

Later:

Yun Muhan: Lock him up. He’s mine.

…

Second arc:

Chen Mingsheng: Money and power are everything.

Later:

Chen Mingsheng: True love is hard to find in this world. Jiang Chuan is everything to me.

…

A redemption story about scumbag men. The gong is emotionally closed off early on, but later responds to the shou’s feelings and even spoils him. This isn’t the seduction type of story; it’s more of a rescue story, where the shou saves the gong. Readers who are extremely protective of either the gong or shou, please don’t come in. I can’t promise you’ll enjoy it (commenters think it turns into a regretful pursuit later ╮(￣▽￣")╭).

The gong is the author’s precious darling, and the shou is the gong’s accessory, the kind he holds in the palm of his hand. That’s all.

…

The reason the gong is reborn in every story is the shou’s wish, made through a request to the System.

System 205: Absolute procedural justice, responsible for dealing with the filth and resentment of countless worlds.

Begging for Angst-Ridden Romance

I've read too many sweet stories, and now they're starting to make me feel sick. I want an angsty story that's both sweet and heartbreaking, but not cloyingly sweet or relentlessly tragic. The leads should have reasons for both their sweet moments and their painful ones. I don't want angst for angst's sake or sweetness for sweetness's sake.
