At the Peach Banquet, she meets an old acquaintance again, only to find that he's forgotten everything about their past? Bai Jiuwei's lips curl up slightly. "Isn't that easy? I'll just make him submit!" So much so that every time the little immortal who guards Wu Mei Star Lord's residence sees her, he trembles with fear. * Retired civil servant Wu Mei Star Lord plans to enjoy his "golden years," but she keeps throwing his heart into disarray. She loves pinning him against the wall and poking at his eyebrows, which supposedly can't move. She doesn't stop until they turn red. She always tells him they were meant to know each other, that their marriage is fate's design, deliberately trying to make him blush. Wu Mei Star Lord, red-faced: "How can the dignified Qingqiu Empress be so shameless!" Later, he stares after her and secretly thinks: The Gengshen day next month is auspicious for marriage. ---Original blurb--- Bai Jiuwei, the newly appointed Qingqiu Empress, is famous throughout Heaven and Earth for her beautiful appearance and decisive rule. She has been invited to the Peach Poetry and Wine Banquet hosted by the gods. To avoid all the suitors at the banquet, she runs all the way to the edge of the Jade Lake. Unexpectedly, she sees the person she's been longing for. But he's forgotten everything about their past and is no longer the person he used to be. Wu Mei, the Ziwei Star Lord, has always been aloof, preferring peace and quiet to banquets. An old friend finally persuades him to attend the Peach Poetry and Wine Banquet, but from then on, he's hounded by the shameless Qingqiu Empress. Wu Mei: If I'd known this would happen, I never would've gone to that banquet. Later, he comes around. #A story of rekindled love# For their backstory, see chapters 21 and 22 of "Falling for a Sunbird." Note: You can start this story without reading the backstory.

Lu Xingzhi, the youngest junior sister on Wuwang Mountain, is doted on by her senior brothers and sisters and indulged by her master and grandmaster. In the end, she becomes famous throughout the world for her lazy nature. Legend has it that someone once asked: Your senior brothers and sisters are all so impressive. Aren't you ashamed? Lu Xingzhi munches on sunflower seeds, looking rosy-cheeked and carefree. "Have we run out of rice or vegetables? What's wrong with lying around, eating and drinking?" Zhou Tao, a Taotie who turns back into a toddler overnight, hears this and is moved. He's found his meal ticket! The immortal sect tournament takes place once every ten years. As usual, Lu Xingzhi, the lazy fish, has no choice but to show up and take part. She only wants to coast along, but people keep picking on her because she seems like an easy target. Her opponent pulls out a nine-ring Green Dragon Crescent Blade, its edge gleaming! "Come on! Draw your weapon!" Lu Xingzhi: "...You asked for it." She leisurely draws a kitchen knife and ends up taking first place. Ah... Is the cultivation world really this weak now? Theme: Keep pursuing your goals, and persistence will pay off. What you can't forget will eventually answer your call.
