After Being Offered to the Dragon-Aotian Hero, He Couldn’t Resist Me

Shen Du, a socially anxious young man, transmigrates into a book, a novel about a heaven's favored son, and becomes a poor boy with no parents.

The good news is that he's handsome. The bad news is that he's too handsome: village thugs have their eyes on him, idle men from other villages covet him, and even the girl next door comes by every day to corner him.

To save his own skin, Shen Du runs off to become a menial worker at an immortal sect. But as soon as he arrives, the steward sets his sights on Shen Du's face and bundles him up to offer to the sect's number one, Chu Yun Zhao.

Chu Yun Zhao has every top-tier advantage a heaven's favored son in a novel could ask for: he's 188 centimeters tall with long legs, handsome, has a mutated lightning spirit root and a hidden spatial law, belongs to a top-tier noble family in the Shangqing Realm, and is the strongest fighter in the Qingyun Sect... Every good quality in the world has been piled onto him. He's practically Heaven's favorite. He hates pulling strings more than anything. Sending spirit stones, pills, or beauties his way is all misguided.

Sure enough, Chu Yun Zhao doesn't even give him a proper look. "Your intentions are improper. Take him away."

Shen Du is relieved and turns to leave.

But the next day, he's called back to sweep the floor. On the third day, he's told to grind ink. On the fourth, Chu Yun Zhao stares at him for the length of an incense stick, his gaze as cold as a frozen pool.

After holding it in for days, Shen Du finally can't stop himself from asking, "Are you picking on me?"

Chu Yun Zhao's expression doesn't change. "No. I'm afraid you'll go astray, so I'll keep an eye on you myself."

Shen Du: ???

Later, the whole sect sees that the aloof chief disciple, who keeps everyone at arm's length, takes a little menial worker with him wherever he goes.

A junior disciple works up the courage to ask, "Senior Brother, aren't you the one who hates pulling strings most?"

Chu Yun Zhao looks down at the little menial worker rubbing his eyes in his arms.

"No. He's mine."
