    A story featuring two male leads and a villainous undercover agent. It's a fantasy/xianxia (Chinese fantasy) story. The villainous minor boss transforms into a novice, preparing to retire and join a righteous immortal sect as a security guard. He and his romantic partner (gong) both suffer from amnesia, and when they meet again, they're already bros. The initial interactions are entirely hard-boiled, and the romance develops slowly, with a tendency towards reconciliation. The story is quite good. Skip the initial background setting introduction; it gets increasingly exciting later on.
