The Noble World Is a Mess

Ever since the storyteller had his neck broken by his own wife’s lover, he’s been practicing his old trade at the Three Lives Ferry. His favorite tale is the one about the King of the Underworld and the Office of Investigation. He says that when her mother ran off to another realm with a young pretty boy, she still managed to show some professional integrity. Though nobody knows what kind of realm that was, apparently she left her two daughters six words of advice before she went. With those six words, her elder sister snagged the Celestial Lord, drove away the scheming fairy, became the Celestial Empress, and reached the pinnacle of life. She herself became the Underworld’s top civil servant, then accidentally usurped the King of the Underworld, and casually won his man’s heart. The two sisters were unstoppable, and truly the envy of all. The ghosts gathered at the Three Lives Ferry to watch the fun were full of questions. What six words could possibly work that well? The storyteller with the broken neck smiled faintly and said: First, never stop taking your medicine. Second, don't stop. Everyone sucked in a sharp breath and said, "Your realm is a real mess." A few notes before you dive in: Although the author isn't quite sure what counts as a sweet romance, I think this one is sweeter than any of my previous stories... maybe? 1. This is a story about a cold, tsundere woman and a charming rogue from the three realms. 2. This story doesn't take itself too seriously, so please don't mind the occasional modern expression. 3. It must be a one-on-one happy ending. 4. As always, the supporting characters are more flirtatious than the leads. That's all. Please don't put me on a ranking list. Thanks! P.S. The first ten chapters of this story have been heavily revised about three times... I haven't been able to update for a while... Starting from chapter five... updates will come every other day...
