Jiang Jingyun is a professional paper effigy maker and a part-time broke guy.
The shop his grandfather left him is downtown, and he can't even afford the electricity bill.
So he signs up for a wilderness survival show to make some money.
The production team says this season will feature traditional folk culture and needs an expert.
Jiang Jingyun: “No problem. It's a family craft. I can teach anyone.”
When he arrives, he discovers his teammate is Xu Chenmo.
The entertainment industry's unanimously acknowledged ice-cold beauty, with looks at the absolute peak and a temper to match, of the emotionally distant variety.
At their first meeting, Jiang Jingyun offers him a lollipop.
Xu Chenmo: “Can you be quiet for a while?”
The next time Jiang Jingyun tries to talk to him, he pulls out some spicy snacks.
Xu Chenmo: “…I want to be alone.”
The third time, they run into danger deep in the forest. Jiang Jingyun flings out a yellow sheet of paper, and a paper figure hangs in midair as every snake flees.
After a long silence, Xu Chenmo looks at the paper effigy maker, grinning without a care in the world.
“Who are you, really?”
Jiang Jingyun has a candy stick in his mouth, his eyes curving into a smile. “Take a guess.”
Later, the show becomes a huge hit, and viewers have some choice comments:
“Xu Chenmo before the show: Stay away from me. After joining the show: Where is he?”
“So how exactly does that paper figure work??”
“Three lines to make a top-tier star pine for me.”
Jiang Jingyun: “Thanks for asking, but I can't tell you how it works. My grandfather would come scold me in a dream.”
Xu Chenmo: “…Shut up.”
Come on, author! No comments doesn't mean we don't like it, it's just because we don't want to comment, come on, come on The plot is pretty good, maybe it's because there are so few chapters now and there's no rating.
It's very interesting. I'm already looking forward to the author's new book.
It's beautiful and very well written.
All I can say is that I was fascinated.
