A Sickly Beauty, Unrotted for a Thousand Years in a Museum, Offers a Huge Reward for a Cage

Qiao Fu was frail and taciturn from childhood, yet his beauty and talent were unparalleled. He was the famous fragile beauty of the Li Dynasty, and before he came of age, the tyrannical King Li imprisoned him deep within the palace. People lamented his fate, but there was nothing they could do. When King Li died, Qiao Fu was supposed to be buried with him. The crystal coffin closed, then opened again, but Qiao Fu still hadn't died. In the blink of an eye, he had arrived in a museum thousands of years in the future, a beautiful living fossil that had not decayed in a millennium. A beauty with no owner was naturally coveted. However... An archaeological expert who tried to touch Qiao Fu came down with a mysterious illness on the very first day, suffering unbearable pain in both hands. A powerful CEO who wanted to make Qiao Fu a star soon found his company beset by one problem after another... After this happened several times, people learned that Qiao Fu was untouchable. People around him always seemed to suffer misfortune because of him. Qiao Fu was considering fleeing to the mountains to live as a wild man when a deep, cold, authoritative voice suddenly sounded in his mind: "My darling has grown so sensible. He doesn't need anyone watching over him to know to turn away those lovesick fools." At the sound of that familiar voice, Qiao Fu's thin back instinctively shuddered, and he lowered his head meekly. But the man still wasn't satisfied. In the darkness, cold fingertips gripped his chin, squeezing until his skin reddened. A dangerous presence drew close. "Did you miss me?" Qiao Fu stopped trembling. His dark eyes, which should have been dull and vacant, rolled around once, then he relaxed and smiled. "I did." Even with chains on his hands and feet, a red veil over his eyes, and sleepless nights every night, he was willing. He chose to be imprisoned. Note: - An alternate world and a sweet romance. A sinister, possessive emperor gong x a shut-in, sickly beauty shou who is adored by everyone. - The shou isn't a little white rabbit. He's just shut-in, the sort who'd dig a hole and bury himself in it (he really did that as a child, but the gong found him and dug him out). When he's not shut-in, he's a beautiful man-eating flower.
