Easygoing, lazy junior sister vs. machine-like workaholic senior brother

Also known as: Congratulations, Lazybones, You're Alive for Another Day

After transmigrating, Lin Tangtang becomes Li Tang, the junior sister of a sect that was destroyed, a girl who died and had her soul scattered.

Good news: The original host has a lingering fragment of consciousness that seems able to tell Lin Tangtang how to survive.

Bad news: The original host is a die-hard fan of senior brother Shen Yun Yuan.

Even worse: To stay alive, life-loving, lazy Lin Tangtang has to follow the male lead on his path of revenge.

Other people who transmigrate into a book: They hold the script and slaughter their way through the world.

Lin Tangtang transmigrates into a book: She's forced to pick up a dying, model-perfect workaholic off the roadside and forced to cook over the fire.

The original host is a lovesick fool, but she's genuinely lazy!!

Lin Tangtang's daily life now goes like this:

Morning: I don't want to do chores! I want to leave Shen Yun Yuan!

Evening: Thank goodness my old buddy saved my life again. I'm alive for another day.

The demons have returned, and the world is in turmoil and danger.

As Lin Tangtang focuses on staying alive, she gradually realizes that this workaholic "senior brother" really can protect her in this chaotic world. Again and again, he raises his sword to save her from danger.

This "machine" even gets so worried that his hands shake when she is in danger.

So he has a cute side after all.

Lazy Lin Tangtang suddenly has an idea:

Why not teach Shen Yun Yuan to enjoy the simple pleasures of mortal life?

For example...

Teach him to eat, sleep, and enjoy life.

Then gradually teach him to cook, do the laundry, and wash the dishes!

As for getting himself killed, she can put it off for another day.

Shen Yun Yuan's life consists of just two things: practicing swordsmanship and taking revenge. He has never needed anyone to accompany him on his path of vengeance.

That is, until a clumsy couch potato enters his life, saves his life, teaches him to put away his fasting pills and eat properly, and teaches him to stop meditating and learn to sleep.

But for the sake of his obsession, Shen Yun Yuan still walks step by step toward the altar carefully laid out for him.

Because he was born uninteresting, no one cares about him, even if he is reduced to ashes.

But when Shen Yun Yuan looks back, he sees the couch potato, who always lies down and never sits, sprinting toward him.

He remembers the laundry he hasn't finished doing for his junior sister, the dishes he hasn't washed, and the promise he made to take her to watch the sunset.

Shen Yun Yuan suddenly wants very much to stay alive.

He wants to rest and lie around with Lin Tangtang, even if all they do is "boring" things together.

After all... his junior sister once told him that she could teach him many, many ways to enjoy life.

Little Scene:

Shen Yun Yuan, who loves candied hawthorns: What does sweet mean?

Lin Tangtang, thinking: This is sweet.

Shen Yun Yuan: I don't get it.

Lin Tangtang, hugging Shen Yun Yuan tightly: We're both alive, the world is at peace, and I can sleep well. That's what sweet means!

Shen Yun Yuan, looking away: Sleeping counts too?

Lin Tangtang: Absolutely.

That night, Lin Tangtang: Shen Yun Yuan, not like that!

Important: The lingering consciousness and the heroine are actually the same person. For a special reason, the heroine's soul split, and part of it ended up in the modern world!

Reader's Guide:

1. Not traditional cultivation fiction. The setting is freewheeling.

2. The heroine's fighting ability is up to chance. Her main role on the team is support, relying on her wits.

3. The male lead is a cold, machine-like workaholic, but respects women.

4. No angst. They save each other.

5. Modern ideas clash with ancient rules, and the language mixes old and new.

6. The female character is absolutely not a male lead's accessory.

7. About the setting: The lingering consciousness can be quite willful at first, but it's a coming-of-age story.

8. Emphasis: The male lead does not know the original host!

The cultivation ranks follow the usual system:

Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul...

Each cultivation rank has three stages!

For example:

Qi Refining Stage One, Qi Refining Stage Two, Qi Refining Stage Three
