Upending the Legend of the White Snake: I Love Lotus Root, Not Xu Xian

(Past and present lives + love that grows over time + mutual devotion + healing + Nezha pairing)

Kind and lively White Snake x proud and stubborn Nezha

After a car accident, Bai Yiran transmigrates into a little white snake in Xuanyuan Tomb. With no memories of her modern life, she dreams that very night and realizes that all these demons seem to meet tragic ends.

To stay alive, she runs away.

Along the way, she happens to meet a child. Taking pity on him, she accompanies him into the city, only to discover that the androgynously beautiful child is Nezha, the third son of Chentang Pass's commander, and a mischievous boy who is good at slaying demons.

She runs, he chases, and she has nowhere to fly.

"Run again and see if I don't capture you, little demon."

The young boy smiles like a flower, but a chill runs through her.

"I wouldn't dare."

There's a lot of truth in the saying that a poor life is better than a good death. If she stays, at least she'll get to eat her fill at the Li residence.

After spending every day together, Bai Yiran has long since fallen for Nezha.

Until that day, when dark clouds gathered over the city and the Dragon King came to demand justice. Nezha resolutely went to his death in front of her.

"Nezha, whatever the cost, I'll make sure you live."

"Bai Yiran, wherever you go, no matter how long or how far, I'll find you and stay by your side."

Their vows were made, and their fates had long been hopelessly entangled.

After searching for over a thousand years, Nezha finally sees that familiar figure again, this time by the West Lake.

Has she really fallen for someone else, even stealing an elixir for him and flooding the Golden Mountain?!

Jealousy, obsession, bitterness, resentment: all the greed, anger, and delusion of mortals begin to grow wildly within him.

One day, he finally can't take it anymore and blocks her path. "Yiyi, is this mortal really more important than me?"

Bai Yiran: "But he's my husband."
