I Became the Matchmaker of the Immortal Realm

[This story will switch to VIP chapters on May 7, and a chapter of ten thousand characters will be released then~ I've opened advance notices for "I Made a Fortune Through Food" and "My Ex and I's CP Couple Is Trending" next door. Please show them some love~]

After a thousand years of reincarnation, Zhu Yue finally ascends to immortality and joins the ranks of the gods, becoming the Matchmaker God. He is overjoyed, at last able to live the life of an immortal. So when he gets drunk, he not only flirts with Crown Prince Jun Yu, but also loses the red threads from his own immortal residence.

He has no choice but to seek out the Heavenly Venerable, who once took charge of the Matchmaker's residence. But the Heavenly Venerable not only takes away his ability to see red threads, he also tells him to ask the Crown Prince for help.

Zhu Yue: I regret it now. I really, really regret it.

A real man knows when to bend and when to stand tall. Zhu Yue shamelessly makes his way to Jun Yu's Jiuhua Palace and clings to his leg. Your Highness, I was wrong. I really was wrong.

Jun Yu sneers: Even if you beg me, I won't help you.

Later, when everything has finally settled down...

In a secluded corner, Jun Yu closes in on him. Are you coming with me or not?

Zhu Yue: Tch. Even if you beg me, I won't go with you!

Jun Yu: Say that again.

Zhu Yue, meekly: Your humble servant obeys.

This story is also known as #The Heavenly Prince's True Fragrance Moment#. A prince who says one thing but means another, paired with a Matchmaker God who knows when to bend and when to stand tall.

·Bonus scene:

One day, Zhu Yue loses his red threads again. By now, he's used to it, so he heads straight to Jiuhua Palace. Hand over the red threads.

Jun Yu: What did you call me?

Zhu Yue: Your Highness? Big brother? Older brother?

Jun Yu gives Zhu Yue a long look. Want the red threads? Trade me yourself.

(The following are previews for two upcoming stories. If you don't want to read them, you can skip straight to the main story.)

"I Made a Fortune Through Food" - historical farming romance:

· Shen Zhuo was on his way to headline an international food festival when he got into a car accident. When he opened his eyes, he had transmigrated into the body of a pretty boy in a small village in ancient times, one everyone thought was stupid. To top it off, the pretty boy had the same name, surname, and face as him.

Figuring the version of him who'd been sitting in the back seat of the car was already thoroughly dead, he might as well start over here.

Shen Zhuo declares: From now on, I'm a different person.

He gets to work fixing up his family's fields and growing some grain and vegetables. Even if life is hard and the ingredients are poor, he won't let his taste buds suffer. He also tries to get along with the neighbors. But everyone in the village knows that this pretty boy was abandoned at the village entrance as a child, is lazy and greedy, sharp-tongued and mean, and likes men, so they can't stand him.

Shen Zhuo: There's no problem a meal can't solve. If one meal isn't enough, then make it two.

· Huo Yao tells Shen Zhuo they'd be better off staying out of each other's business. Then he discovers that the young master who used to cling to him and take advantage of him seems to have become a different person. He's a good cook, treats people well, and his smile is genuine. He's kind of cute, too. But for some reason, he keeps avoiding Huo Yao and giving him a wide berth.

Later, after Shen Zhuo catches this official moving into his restaurant openly for the umpteenth time...

Shen Zhuo: I thought we agreed to stay out of each other's business?

Huo Yao lies without batting an eye: I'm living here to handle official business. You entertain the customers outside. We're staying out of each other's business.

Shen Zhuo: ...

Hmph. Men are so fickle.

· Years later, someone asks Huo Yao what changed his mind back then.

Huo Yao answers calmly, "I saw how devoted he was, so I had no choice but to put myself out for him."

Shen Zhuo: ...

Could that Huo Yao who wouldn't leave the restaurant back then have been an impostor?

"My Ex and I's CP Couple Is Trending" - synopsis:

Rising star Lu Huai takes a spot on a variety show. Having just finished filming a drama, he plans to relax for a while. But on the very first day, he discovers that one of the non-celebrity guests is his ex-boyfriend, the guy he dumped in a game three years ago.

Thinking back on what happened, Lu Huai can't help feeling guilty. He pretends nothing is wrong and keeps his gaming secret identity under wraps. He absolutely cannot get exposed.

But the day after the show airs, #NostalgiaCP shoots to the top of the trending list.

Fan A: Aaaaaah! That guy is so handsome! Is my Lu Hua finally taken?!

Fan B: They touched! Their hands touched! Is this the beginning of love?

Fan C: That guy even knows Lu Hua doesn't eat potato chunks! He's definitely been paying attention to my Lu Hua for a long time!

Lu Huai scrolls through Weibo and curses: To hell with Nostalgia CP!

Then he clicks into the story and can't stop reading.

As episode after episode of the show airs, #NostalgiaCP stays at the top of the supertopic charts for several weeks running. If this goes on, Lu Huai is sure to get exposed, so he has no choice but to ask his friend Tang Bai for help.

Tang Bai: Treasure this relationship.

Lu Huai: Be reasonable. A good horse doesn't eat the grass behind it. That gaming romance from three years ago is ancient history.

Later, Qin Yan lounges against the headboard, looking thoroughly satisfied, and occasionally glances at Lu Huai, whose eyes are red at the corners and whose face is full of indignation.

Qin Yan: Gaming romance? Ancient history?

Lu Huai protests: This isn't ancient history. This is too much!

· Bonus scene:

One day, Lu Huai suddenly posts on Weibo and tags Qin Yan, showing off a ring: I've chosen one tree to hang myself from. Qin Yan tags him back in reply.

Lu Huai opens the trending list on his phone to show Qin Yan. Look, this is what a real trending topic looks like. That random nonsense you paid to promote before, wasn't it a waste of money?

Qin Yan glances at Lu Huai. Getting you was a losing deal to begin with.

Lu Huai whines: Not exactly. I just feel bad about the money.

Qin Yan: It's fine. You can make it up to me with a little more.

Lu Huai: ... (Hmph, evil rich people.)
