[A laid-back, retired-minded but capable and slightly docile bottom × a hundred-year-old iron tree of a top who’s secretly passionate and makes him feel completely safe]
Xie Yunshan worked in customer service, a corporate drone who typed and took calls from nine to six, with only one day off each weekend.
One moment, he was helping an old lady figure out why her rice cooker wouldn’t work: she hadn’t plugged it in. The next, his vision went dark. When he woke again, a chime rang in his mind:
[Host has been bound to the Negative Review Processing System.]
Xie Yunshan opened his eyes. He’d been moved to a new workstation, with a giant floating screen in front of him and his job offer beside it. His position read: “Interstellar Negative Review Processor.”
Xie Yunshan: “...”
What’s the difference? He’d just gone from an ordinary corporate drone to an interstellar one?
System: [Complete one hundred cases to unlock retirement privileges.]
Xie Yunshan perked right up, rolled up his sleeves, and got to work. He handled more than fifty three-star reviews remotely and cleared them in no time.
It wasn’t until he opened a two-star review that the System announced an upgrade to the processing method: [On-site processing.]
But how did things end up like this?!
The moment he was deployed “on-site,” he locked eyes with a mutant creature, its mouth a gaping crimson maw.
Just as he thought he was done for, someone emerged from the gray fog and shot the creature that had been chasing him.
“Negative Review Bureau? Come with me.”
Feng Lian was an adjudicator at the highest court in the interstellar realm. He’d come to work undercover by Xie Yunshan’s side solely to obtain a particular negative review record.
Xie Yunshan took one look at him and decided he seemed like a decent field partner, so he agreed without hesitation.
After completing his first two-star review, the System rewarded him with a [Good Review Wish Fountain].
Xie Yunshan: This is great!
But why hadn’t it given him something this good sooner?
Fortune had finally smiled on him. Not only did he now have the [Good Review Wish Fountain], but thanks to Feng Lian’s “recommendation,” he’d also become a member of the Adjudication Court’s subordinate organization, [Anchor Point].
Awesome! With both these advantages, he could walk all over the interstellar realm from now on.
Negative reviews would be a piece of cake to deal with.
As it turned out, he’d gotten ahead of himself.
The System was exploitative, [Anchor Point] sent its people into life-and-death situations, the job ran year-round without a break, and retirement was nowhere in sight. Even his body had to be “sold” to get stronger...
He wished he could split himself in two just to keep up.
The complaints came in all shapes and sizes. The more cases Xie Yunshan handled in person, the more something felt off.
Behind these seemingly unrelated complaints, there seemed to be a single thread connecting them all.
And they were getting closer and closer to the truth.
One day, Feng Lian suddenly asked him, “Once you’ve dealt with the last negative review, what do you want to do most?”
Xie Yunshan paused and thought it over. “The first thing I’ll do after retiring... I haven’t decided yet.”
Feng Lian looked at him and said earnestly, “Then why don’t you come with me first?”
