Get Married or Cultivate Immortality

Fu Linyuan had two questions in front of him.

One was a matter of life and death. The other was a multiple-choice question.

The life-or-death question: If he couldn't cultivate to the level of a half-immortal before turning eighteen, his master would revoke his right to take the college entrance exam and cancel his household registration, then lock him in the back mountains to train until he made something of himself.

The multiple-choice question: Give in to his senior brother Xiao Jinghua's overwhelming charms, marry him, and cultivate together. With the advantage of his senior brother's earthly immortal status, he could reach the pinnacle of life.

But Fu Linyuan didn't want to choose either option. He only loved studying and wanted to get into a good university and find a steady job.

But man proposes, and Heaven disposes. One day, he woke up in an unfamiliar room to find his senior brother, clothes disheveled and face flushed with embarrassment, standing before him.

"Little Junior Brother, you can't run away now..."

Fu Linyuan: "..."

Before long, word that Fu Linyuan had dumped his senior brother Xiao Jinghua spread throughout Little Tian Mountain and reached Fu's father's ears.

Master: I don't have a disciple like you, always looking for loopholes! I told you to stay away from women, and you went and set your sights on your senior brother!

Fu's father: Son, you're an alpha, and so is your spouse. Are you sure our family won't die out?

[Bonus Scene 1]

Fu Linyuan glared at Xiao Jinghua, who wouldn't leave no matter how many times he was chased off, and handed him a brocade box. "Eat this."

"What is it?"

"A pregnancy pill."

"I'm not eating it! If you want a baby, carry it yourself!"

[Bonus Scene 2]

One day, Xiao Jinghua noticed Fu Linyuan's belly had gotten round. He went over and curiously felt it. "Xiao Yuan, you're really carrying a baby!"

The person who had simply gained weight unleashed a torrent of curses: ××#××

[Content Warnings and Setting]

A modern-life story about immortals in a later generation. Entirely fictional, with same-sex marriage allowed. Both leads are alphas, and there are no children. A pregnancy pill can change someone into a dual-sex person capable of giving birth, but there will be no children in the story. If you want to see a pregnancy, it'll be at most in an extra.

A mountain of personal headcanons. It looks like a campus story but is really about cultivation, with a light touch of wealthy-family feuds.

They dote on each other and sabotage each other. Both are powerful.

The gong is tsundere and a true aloof beauty. The shou pretends to be a playboy and is the troublemaking type.

Age difference between the gong and shou: 17 years, 1,000 years. A true younger gong.
