【Ensemble cast + love and hate + redemption + mild coercion + multiple couples, with a transmigration-into-a-book plot】
Yuan Zhoujiu is Ding Sheng’s convenient Daoist partner, plucked from a book. But the real person is nothing like the prime minister portrayed in the story.
The prime minister in the book vs. the real him
The prime minister is pure and noble, while he’s cold and ruthless: “I’m not gentle at all. I’ve done everything from burning and killing to looting.”
The prime minister is mild and kind, while he’s sarcastic and cutting: “The young lord and the fairy have such a deep bond.”
The prime minister is cultured and polite, while he’s obsessive and unhinged, pulling her into his arms: “Shengsheng, look carefully. Who’s your man?”
Their married life is full of conflict and bickering, with the household in constant turmoil.
An unhinged, possessive prime minister × a fairy who appears strong but is sensitive inside.
…
By a twist of fate, Yuan Que Shi follows his older brother Yuan Zhoujiu to the Immortal Realm, where he has an indescribable encounter with Kong Sang, another female immortal.
Afterward, he turns into a wronged little crybaby: “Faithless woman, I’ll never forgive you!”
After another indescribable encounter: “What a fake! He’s even better at pretending than I am!”
When faced with a choice, he says, “I’ve made up my mind.” Then: “Kong Sang, I choose you.”
A scheming fake fool × a woman with two souls in one body.
Bonus Scene
Ding Sheng: “We’re both strong bros. Let’s take one each and make them reveal their secret identities.” Kong Sang, fretting: “Okay!”
The two immortals hit it off and start causing trouble throughout the Immortal Realm.
One day, Ding Sheng casually pulls out her phone, which plays a recording of Yuan Que Shi groaning after being beaten: “Big brother, it hurts~”
Yuan Zhoujiu raises his hand, then slaps himself instead and drops to his knees: “Wifey, I was wrong.”
