Synopsis
(I'm putting the first four chapters up again for now. I've already made major revisions through Chapter 10, but replacing them now would leave the word count short of the pre-V threshold, so I haven't uploaded the revised chapters yet.
Orz orz orz, I repent. I got carried away, and the workload was much bigger than I expected. Just writing the outline took three or four days. The main plot hasn't changed, but the way it's presented is so different that it might as well be a complete rewrite. I recommend reading it again, or waiting until I've finished revising and then catching up.)
[Here's a preview of my next novel, Forbidden: Students Cannot Become Principals [Infinite] (blurb at the end)]
[Ancient-to-modern transmigration × ABO × secret identities × love at first sight]
A self-important but genuinely lucky, "delicate" and scheming Alpha × a flirtatious beauty Omega who'd poison himself by licking his own lips, yet is incredibly responsible (both are each other's first and only)
--
Xie Tianze, blessed with heaven-sent grace, was a once-in-a-century genius of the Heartless Path. From childhood, he had no worldly desires, and everything went smoothly for him.
Then, during a tribulation, he was struck by lightning. When he opened his eyes again, he was in an ABO world, his hand touching smooth, delicate skin.
He immediately sensed something was wrong, but before he could make out the person's face, he was kicked off the bed.
Immortal Xie: What?! You insolent rogue, how dare you disrespect me!
Looking again, he saw the rogue's back, covered in deep and shallow red marks, a shocking sight.
Xie Tianze's heart sank. He, a cultivator of the Heartless Path, had actually broken his vow.
"Even though you're useless, I'll take responsibility for you."
Just then, the rogue turned around. Skin like ice and bones like jade, cold and peerlessly beautiful, a stunning beauty through and through.
Immortal Xie, who had been feeling utterly dejected, froze. His eyes fixed on the beauty, his blood surged, and only one thought remained in his mind.
Everything that happened was all to welcome the person destined for me!
Afterward, Xie Tianze learned that he had become the weakest Alpha in a supernatural organization, and had been permanently marked by its top-ranked Omega, who was disguised as an Alpha.
Xie Tianze: "What's the point of cultivating when a wife matters more?"
He decided to keep playing the weakling and start a happy life of pushing his luck.
He followed the beauty home, took over his bedroom, and clung to him until he agreed to bring him on missions.
Whenever the beauty got impatient and told him to get lost, he would sniffle pitifully:
"I thought that since my husband said he'd take responsibility for me, he'd consider my feelings and keep me safe..."
--
Zhaoxue was the organization's fearsome pinnacle of combat strength, but an accident left him permanently marked by Xie Tianze, the team's dead last.
The end of the world could hardly be worse.
Watching the Alpha howl for ages over a mere scrape, he faced his fate with grim resolve.
He'd planned to keep the man safely at home and shoulder the burden of earning their living by going on missions alone. Who could have guessed the Alpha would insist on sticking to him?
"If you die out there, that's your problem."
Zhaoxue kept complaining, but always watched out for the Alpha's safety.
After all, his Alpha was gentle and weak, and the slightest bump left him covered in bruises. Without Zhaoxue protecting him, who knew who might bully him?
Until one day, he caught his Alpha flying on a sword, cutting down an enemy with a swift strike to a vital spot.
Their eyes met.
Xie Tianze hurriedly jumped off the sword and scrambled toward him.
"Husband, let me explain!!"
Zhaoxue: ^ ^
The Heavenly Dao, nearly scared out of its wits (breaking down): You cultivate the Heartless Path. How can you break your vows on your own?!
Xie Tianze (with unwavering resolve): I don't care about the Path, I want my wife!!!
Note 1: The story is from the pursuer's point of view. The pursuer falls in love at first sight, but it's purely love at first sight based on looks, not genuine love. For the one being pursued, that one-night stand was his first encounter with the pursuer, so there will be plenty of testing and clashing between them early on.
Note 2: They're evenly matched. There won't be any abuse of the pursued by the pursuer, or vice versa.
Note 3: Comments that are unpleasant or hurt the reading experience will be deleted.
Note 4: Likes only indicate that I've read the comment.
Below is the blurb for my next novel, Forbidden: Students Cannot Become Principals [Infinite]
[Blowing up schools × A big shot returns to the beginner's village × Comeback]
A gloomy, clingy, marriage-hungry peacock of a pursuer × a thrill-seeking, smiling tiger of a pursued who treats his life as disposable (both are each other's first and only)
--
Zhishan High School is a reform academy for souls awaiting reincarnation, dedicated to rebuilding good character through hands-on practice. It has over four thousand school rules, and every one of them is utterly absurd.
For example: No objects on desks.
For example: No one on dormitory beds.
For example: No garbage in the trash cans.
At one exam site, Jiang Mi wakes up after transmigrating into the school, lying on a dormitory bed. His mission says he can't take out the trash or tidy his desk.
Jiang Mi: "...^^"
The thing Jiang Mi hates most in life is being coerced.
If nothing can be put on desks, what's the point of having desks?
If no one can be on dormitory beds, a corpse doesn't count as a person, right?
If no garbage can go in the trash cans, a human brain isn't garbage, right?
Thinking this, Jiang Mi sets the school ablaze, turning it into a soft "bed". The "bed" is covered in headless monsters, peacefully sleeping in dense rows.
*
Have you heard?
A freak has emerged among the new students!
That freak treats the school rules like a checklist, wielding a steel baton in one hand and the truth in the other. He tears into other examinees and kicks teachers. Every exam site he passes has to be rebuilt from scratch.
His style and methods are just like those of the missing upperclassman who used to haunt the forums a couple of years ago. Rumor had it he kept a giant crocodile in his dorm, put pesticides in a drone to make it rain, and stuffed hundreds of tiny bombs into plush toys to give the principal as a birthday present.
The examinees went wild.
Who knew how much suffering that upperclassman had put them through!
He'd been at the school for only a year, but he'd raised the number of school rules from three thousand to four thousand!
Four! Thousand! Rules!
The examinees: (shutting their eyes) The last little demon just fell, and now another one's been born?
--
At first, everyone assumed this was just another examinee who'd heard about the upperclassman's legendary exploits and was trying to imitate him. They all gleefully waited for him to fail and suffer the same fate as his predecessor.
Luo Suo thought so too.
He couldn't understand why everyone was fixated on his beloved, imitating him and trying to take his place.
As if they were worthy!!!
Seething with murderous intent, Luo Suo forced his way into the new student's exam, ready to eliminate this disgusting copycat.
But when the new student turned around, Luo Suo saw the face he'd been longing for.
"..." Luo Suo silently put away his giant scythe and slapped himself.
"Smack!"
Damn, that hurt?
He wasn't dreaming!!!
His beloved was back!!!
Luo Suo charged forward like a madman, trying to grab Jiang Mi in a hug, but Jiang Mi swiftly kicked him away.
Luo Suo rolled across the ground, his face bruised and swollen.
"Darling, are you looking for a partner? ꒰꒦ິᯅ o̴̶̷̤ ꒱♡"
Jiang Mi: "? Where'd this lunatic come from? Get lost. ^^"
#If you can't put garbage in the trash can, what are you supposed to put in it?
#Every absurd school rule has an absurd story behind it
#That mysterious man is back!
Note 1: This is a fictional Infinite Flow story. There is a BG GL side couple, but they don't have much page time in the main story. I'll write a separate bonus chapter for them.
Note 2: Comments that are unpleasant or hurt the reading experience will be deleted.

Theme: Love is a lifelong lesson.

The original owner's personality is very similar to the protagonist's; they must have transmigrated before, right?
They truly have an extraordinary level of fanaticism towards their boss.
Give me some encouragement, don't let me down. I'll wait until I've fattened up my feed to come back for more!
Having figured this out, Xie Tianze... (A little bug fix for the author~) I probably can't be happy.
Was it intentional or accidental, or intentional or accidental? [Question mark]
Isn't Xiao Xie being a bit too aggressive? Was his reaction too much?
What happened next? Was he saying that on purpose? Like that character who says, "The murderer is..." "Who is the murderer?" "The murderer is..." And then just dies. Isn't that just infuriating? He could have gotten to the point much earlier if he had just kept repeating those words.
Being able to sleep until dark is a skill in itself! Teacher, get some rest! [Pats head][pats head][pats head]
I play games too late and have a habit of reading a couple of chapters of a novel before bed, so I'm out and about in the middle of the night [noob dog emoji].
"So Zhaoxue had to..." (Please point out a typo, author~)
