Silly, theatrical, gentle human gong x sweet, naive, beautiful god shou

Monster lover vs. dumb monster

[Main Gong, Mutual Love / Gong Dotes on Shou]

Ye Ning finally made it through three rounds of the civil service exam and secured a government job.

On the day he got the position, he was fantasizing about taking it easy for the rest of his life when a System suddenly dragged him to a Cthulhu planet.

And made him the director of its Poverty Alleviation Office.

Looking around, he saw a barren, blood-red planet. Unfathomable, terrifying monsters roamed the surface. No trace of humanity could be found. Only madness and corruption endured.

[Director Ye, hurry and develop your planet!]

Ye Ning: "..."

Where are the people?

Are you saying those monsters are my people?

They do look pretty cool, sure, but!

With no other choice, Ye Ning rolled up his sleeves and got to work on infrastructure. He developed the planet into a feng shui paradise for growing occult crops, while livestreaming sales and purifying the corrupted nonhuman monsters.

But why did everyone keep imagining him as an Outer God?!

-

The black-haired young man called himself the director of the Poverty Alleviation Office. He looked human, wore an ordinary shirt, and often read a black-covered notebook.

The monsters gasped. "That's an Outer God's divine artifact. It records everything on the planet for him. Nothing can escape his eyes."

Ye Ning: "Huh? It's just a resident registry!"

When the occult crops were ready for harvest, Ye Ning started a livestream to sell them to the Human Federation. A store called "AAA661 Planetary Specialties, the Internet's Only Authentic Official Flagship Store" appeared out of nowhere.

The monsters said, "This is a divine descent! He bestows gifts upon us with a generosity beyond our imagination. Humans, have you said thank you yet?"

Ye Ning: "...Hey, is it possible that I'm just selling stuff?"

Before long, the quirky StarNet store "AAA661 Planetary Specialties, the Internet's Only Authentic Official Flagship Store" became a sensation throughout the stars.

Wearing a blue work badge and surrounded by monsters, Ye Ning pulled out a sticky, ugly fruit and said enthusiastically, "We've brought you our Spot-Fading Essence Fruit, which can heal emotional wounds. Take it home for just 99 star coins."

A commenter said, "I don't believe you. Who are you trying to disgust?"

Despite their words, the viewers took one look at the terrifying backdrop around him, hesitated, and ordered the fruit.

The next day, a post about its restorative effects went viral:

[It really works! Is he a god??]

Ye Ning: "Thanks for asking. I'm not, but nobody believes me."

Word spread quickly. A mysterious cult came to worship him, convinced he was a lost god from an ancient era.

The next moment, humanity issued an announcement, proclaiming Ye Ning to be a benevolent higher-dimensional being.

Ye Ning gave up on clearing his name and seized the opportunity to launch a new product:

"They're right about everything. Everyone, buy a few more! Three, two, one, here's the link!"

The barren planet's economy took off. More and more people came to see him, worshipping and praying to him as a god. His livestream sales room also became a cyber wishing well.

Every wish came true, and word spread from one believer to ten, then a hundred. His following doubled and doubled again.

Ye Ning suddenly remembered that in a distant era, he had once glimpsed countless living beings from beyond the stars.

He stared in disbelief. "So... I really did become a god?"

Wen Yihe, the mother goddess worshipped by all nonhuman beings and the strongest source of planetary corruption.

They were beautiful, powerful, and supremely holy.

One day, an Outer God who spoke in roundabout ways came to them, promising a better future for their planet and its children.

He took them on livestreams, taught them about the human world, bought them pretty clothes, and worked with them to make money and build infrastructure.

Wen Yihe blinked their long lashes and wrapped their snow-white tentacles around the Outer God.

"It's a pleasure doing business with you."

Outer God Ye Ning: Hehe, gorgeous beauty.

Ye Ning hugged their tentacle and kissed it, insisting that kissing a male coworker's tentacle was perfectly reasonable.

Wen Yihe was baffled. "Is this also part of our partnership?"

Reading Guide:

1. Ye Ning, gong x Wen Yihe, shou

2. 1v1, mutual but uneven affection. The main couple are both sunny types: an idealistic, adorable gong x a white-haired, beautiful saintly shou. The couple is endgame, no breaking them up or reversing the ship.

3. Happy, sweet, satisfying story / mass delusion / mild eldritch horror

- Bonus Scene -

The streamer from [AAA661 Planetary Specialties, the Internet's Only Authentic Official Flagship Store] has an unmistakably lively presence, is great at chatting, and knows how to make a show of it while feeding the audience dog food.

Someone dug up the fact that the tentacle beauty by his side was a god from a recently prosperous nightmare star system, so filthy rich that it made people green with envy.

Commenter: They're so adorable!!

Commenter: Streamer, streamer, can we get close to the beautiful white-haired person beside you?

Ye Ning muted the commenter, turned around, and clung tightly to his god, pouting in annoyance.

"Blasphemy is a capital crime. Next!"

But in the blink of an eye, more tentacles wrapped around him. The clumsy tentacle beauty groped him all over, returning the Outer God's affection.

The glassy tentacles were smooth and beautiful, their mucus stretching into strings as they slid lower.

Wen Yihe whispered, "Ye Ning, let's cuddle. I'm not jealous."

Ye Ning: "!!!"

Male coworker, where are you touching?

The nervous Outer God set up a stand: "Okay."

Theme: Save the nonhuman beings on a barren planet, and spread ideals and peace across the stars!
