[A Sweet Dream, Then I Jolt Awake: The Balcony Glass Is Shattered]
Song Li works, eats, works overtime, and sleeps. His life as a corporate drone is going just fine.
One day, after working overtime, he has barely fallen asleep when a dragon carrying a clamshell crashes through his floor-to-ceiling window. It immediately starts sucking his blood, then tells him to come along on an adventure.
...Song Li: What year is it? Did I transmigrate into a story about going on an adventure with XX?
Song Li: I don't want to... (Suppressed by the blood pact, he grits his teeth and holds on.) Even if you force me, I won't... (The people hunting the dragon clan shake his house until it nearly falls apart.)
Song Li: I still haven't paid off the mortgage on my damn house! Fine! I'll go if you wipe them out!
He can help this dragon prince save his older brother, sure. Song Li does have a little supernatural ability, after all.
But why does this dragon prince cling to him every day, putting an arm around his waist and grabbing his hand at every opportunity?
And why, whenever Song Li sees how pale he is, does he want to give him a little color?
Is his masochistic side acting up? (Just kidding.)
Jiaotu, the ninth son of the Dragon, is naturally quiet and loves to keep to himself. He can stay inside his clamshell for a hundred years at a time.
So although Jiaotu has lived for many years, he is indifferent to the people and affairs of the outside world and has never experienced love.
Until he meets Song Li...
When this mortal pushes him away, he thinks up every possible excuse. But when he draws close, he does so without hesitation.
Jiaotu has never met anyone like him.
Song Li x Jiaotu
Sharp-tongued but softhearted straight man bottom x aloof, beautiful dragon top
Strong leads, mutual feelings turned up to the max
Jiaotu (the corners of his eyes faintly red): Even if I were gone, it would make no difference to you.
Song Li: ...What did I do to give you that impression? If you don't matter, then no one in the world matters!
Serious blurb:
Jiaotu is a broken god at the end of his road, while Song Li is a great tree rooted in the earth, the one and only anchor for Jiaotu.
Theme: Don't believe in past or future lives. Be brave and live this one.
