My next-door neighbor's new story is now underway: The Venerable Celestial Wants to Take His Place Every Day. "I've found someone I love. Don't pursue me. It won't work out."
The greatest recluses hide in plain sight. To escape an assassination attempt, the former crown prince endured humiliation and secretly became a male entertainer in the pleasure quarter.
But after transmigrating into a book as the villainess, Tong Lulu paid a fortune to bring him back to her courtyard, keeping a dragon hidden in her golden house.
Five years later, the empire changed hands. The temperamental new emperor spent all night in earnest conversation with the trembling old chancellor, discussing the chancellor's equally trembling youngest daughter.
So, first thing the next morning, the old chancellor presented Tong Lulu, who had fled in the middle of the night, with both hands.
In front of everyone, the new emperor cornered her against a dragon pillar in the main hall, just as she had once done to him, and said in a low voice, "Beautiful one, why won't you give Your Majesty a smile?"
Tong Lulu, overcome by her acting bug, wailed, "I was wrong! I shouldn't have forced Your Majesty back then~"
The new emperor lost all face in his very first month on the throne.
Little scene:
Six years ago:
Bai Zhanxin declared righteously, "Tong Lulu, whoever marries you will suffer eight lifetimes of bad luck! Their ancestors must have spent thousands upon thousands of years slaughtering and looting, offended the King of Hell and sinned for a hundred generations, and ruined the good fortune of their entire family!"
Six years later:
The emperor, bored senseless while the empress visited her family, stared at a plate of pork wrapped in bamboo and poked at an empty bamboo stalk with his chopsticks. "Xiao Fusheng, look. Doesn't this bamboo look like Lulu?"
Xiao Fusheng was bewildered. "Like Her Majesty? This..."
The emperor nodded with a pout, perfectly serious. "It looks just like her head, empty inside when you cut it open."
Xiao Fusheng: ...
A moment later, the emperor sighed again. "Xiao Fusheng, do you think that empty head of hers ever thinks of me? I miss her. So very much."
Xiao Fusheng: ... (Her Majesty has been gone from the palace for less than half an hour!)
A few warnings:
1. Happy ending, both leads are each other's one and only, a silly-sweet pair of enemies who fall in love. The author is terrible at writing blurbs.
2. I don't know what genre this is. Every ridiculous plot twist is meant to make the leads fall in love, but somehow they always end up fighting instead.
3. Suggestions are welcome in the comments below. Thanks for your support!
4. The setting is very loose. Don't scrutinize irrelevant details. If fate brings you here, enjoy the story, and if not, please don't leave a bad rating~
New story available for pre-order:
The Venerable Celestial Wants to Take His Place Every Day:
After transmigrating into a cultivation world, Yingtang became a great demon lord and lived a free and happy life.
One day, while snacking on sunflower seeds, she happened to pick up a pitiful blind man.
He was handsome, cooked for her, did her hair, and obeyed her every whim.
He couldn't even hurt a fly, yet when a Nascent Soul cultivator called her a "witch," he immediately stepped forward to protect her.
Yingtang was so moved she could barely contain herself. Mom, I'm in love.
The gods in heaven, with nothing better to do, reported Yingtang for abducting the mortal world's crown prince and disrupting its fate. They denounced her, claiming she had violated the Heavenly Dao.
The Supreme Venerable Celestial descended to subdue the demon. They fought three hundred rounds, hurting each other as they went.
In the end, Yingtang's cultivation was completely destroyed, and she was sealed away for ten thousand years.
Later, Yingtang broke free of the seal.
The Venerable Celestial came again. And again.
He doggedly chased her across the Three Realms. In terrible weather, he blew away the storm clouds crackling with lightning. When she was destitute, he gave her rare treasures. When cultivators bullied her, he ripped out their immortal bones.
Yingtang refused to appreciate it. She thought he was crazy, and whenever she saw him, she picked up stones and threw them at his handsome face.
He still wouldn't give up. He blocked her path again and again, until at last he bowed low before her and pleaded hoarsely, "Even if you only treat me as his replacement, can't you accept me?"
The murderous Venerable Celestial Chao Lie extracted the least useful sliver of tenderness from his heart as a divine soul and sent it down to the mortal realm to undergo tribulation, fulfilling his quota for "gods undergoing tribulation." Then he washed his hands of it.
The divine soul was reborn as the crown prince of Xia in the mortal realm. Gentle by nature, he was abused in body and spirit from childhood. Losing all hope in humanity, he fell into demonic cultivation, and by a twist of fate was picked up by a demoness.
Her beautiful hair, scented with flowers, often brushed his face by accident.
She sang for him and told him all sorts of strange stories.
She even taught him about human relationships, including the ways between men and women.
The divine soul fell in love, and there was no turning back.
Once the quota was fulfilled, a bowl of Granny Meng's soup sent the divine soul back to its original body, leaving all memories and attachments behind.
Later, through another twist of fate, Chao Lie fell in love with the demoness again.
But seeing her love someone else drove him mad with jealousy.

After reading this article, I deeply feel that the characters become richer towards the end. In particular, the descriptions of love gave me many different feelings. Really love every character. Hope to meet you again.
The male protagonist was so miserable in his previous life. I really don't blame him for his psychological problems. It was really miserable (っ╥╯╰╥c)
Zhaoyun is the younger brother of the two dueling kings! But no matter how awesome this identity is, he is still a younger brother.
It's true. If Xiaobai hadn't sent Zhaoyun to intercept Hu, Lu Lu would have gone on a trip with Che Chunzhi.
I finished it in one go, it's so beautiful~
Si Wu really took over half of the laughs in this book, and the other half was with Lao Liu. He really deserves to be called Lu Lu.

Finished reading! Very nice!
I really like every character in this book. Lu Lu deserves every bit of kindness Huanyu treats her. How precious it is to meet someone in life who illuminates and warms you like a ray of light. Thank you to the author for allowing me to see such a touching work.
I've finished reading it! I've finished reading it! The fried chicken is really good! No matter the plot or writing style, there is no crotch-stretching part at all!!!
