Pre-release: The Honest Incubus Just Wants to Live an Honest Life. The blurb is at the bottom
When Rong Xi was fifteen, his mother died. His father brought his mistress and illegitimate son into the family home, then demanded that Rong Xi publicly acknowledge them in front of his mother's funeral altar.
Rong Xi refused and openly defied his father.
As a result, he was kicked out and went to live alone in his maternal grandfather's old house.
His life changed overnight. Rong Xi was utterly disheartened and began to give up on himself.
But before long, a little cloud entered his life.
The little cloud was mischievous and quirky, and gave him a shock the moment they met.
After that, it kept getting into trouble and making his life difficult.
Though it was a handful, it gradually helped Rong Xi find hope again. He began looking forward to the future.
Then disaster struck: his little cloud vanished while saving him.
After the white cloud disappeared, it slept for a long, long time. When it woke again, eighteen years had passed.
Eighteen years later, Rong Xi was all grown up. The slender boy had become a broad-shouldered man.
He had money and status now, and no longer had to worry about where his next meal would come from.
The white cloud thought he was still the same person as before, just all grown up.
But late at night, this gentle man would sit by his bed and stare at him with obsessive, unhinged intensity, his eyes dark and frightening.
The white cloud would say, "Rong Xi, please let me go out and play for a while."
Rong Xi would say, "Bai Yun, please stay by my side. Please be kind to me again."
A soft, sweet, adorable little white cloud with a tender heart
A sickly obsessive business mogul who never gives up until he gets what he wants
Pre-release blurb:
An honest incubus, handsome and refined, with a quiet, straightforward personality, can't stand the promiscuous world of incubi, so he moves to live among humans.
But on the very day he arrives, he runs into a man who looks exactly like him and is fleeing his wedding. In the confusion, he's shoved into the wedding car and ends up as the substitute groom.
The original body's owner may have the same face as him, but his behavior is utterly outrageous. He's been stringing along three men at once, deceiving them for their feelings and their money. Now that they've uncovered his scam and want revenge, he can only hurry to latch onto a rich patron and marry him.
Rumor has it this patron is frail and sickly, with a mercurial temperament. But because he's loaded, the original takes a gamble and clings to him. Then, on the wedding day, all three men show up, and he can't handle them. That's when the honest incubus arrives. With the same face, he can take his place at the wedding.
The honest incubus: ...
This is an impossibly difficult love triangle, and the honest incubus is even less equipped to handle it. He thinks that if he explains who he is, they'll let him go.
But after meeting him just once, the men who had hated him all change their tune.
Sickly husband: "I don't care who deceived me. We're married now, so I'm yours. You have to take responsibility."
Cool professor: "Just because you won't admit it doesn't mean it never happened. Come here. I'll give you one more chance."
Smiling fox of a superstar: "If I say you seduced me and then dumped me, who do you think people will believe, me or you? Come back with me, and we'll forget what happened before."
Gentle, scheming master painter: "Want to leave? Sure. We can take a honeymoon trip together and find some inspiration while we're at it."
The honest incubus is scared. He can't keep up with all the attention, so he packs his bags and returns to the demon realm.
But the moment he steps through the demon gate, the four men transform into one right before his eyes.
Demon King: "Running away again? Where do you think you can go?"
The honest incubus: ...
An honest incubus who's seductive without realizing it. At first, he has no choice, and later he decides having a steady meal ticket isn't so bad. But once he's had more than he can handle, he decides to run, only for the four men to merge into one. One is even more intense than four.
After they return to the human world, the four still work as separate people, but they share memories and senses. Even though they're one person, they still get jealous of one another.
The honest incubus finally gets to live a quiet life of his own. He opens a little restaurant, cooks delicious food for people by day, and treats himself to something good at night.
He doesn't know what love is, but he thinks this kind of life isn't bad at all.
An honest incubus who only wants a quiet life and doesn't realize how seductive he is
A demon king with multiple contrasting personalities and incarnations, jealous of himself
