After transmigrating into a book, Yan Yan becomes the current emperor's twin brother and the protagonist of the story.
But as a laid-back sort of person, Yan Yan has no interest in power or the throne. All he wants is to open a teahouse, drink tea, read books, and lie on the roof to sunbathe every day.
He wants a peaceful, ordinary life, but who could have guessed...
His wealthy childhood friend keeps showing up with all sorts of goods. "I passed through Nanyue on this trip and got you some freshly picked Yunwu tea... I've also got some excellent lychees, pearls, jade, gold and silver jewelry..."
The head of the ethereal sect leaps up and grabs a troublemaker by the throat. "Let's see who dares to cause trouble here and bully my disciple!"
His imperial brother goes incognito on an inspection tour and clings to him, crying. "Being emperor is so hard. Why don't you take over for a few days? After all, we look exactly alike..."
Yan Yan: "...All of you, go home!!!"
=The male lead's perspective=
Bai Cenyuan was once a fox demon who committed countless evil deeds. After being badly injured in an accident, he turned back into a little red ball and collapsed beneath a peach tree.
Someone picked him up and took him home, where he was carefully cared for in the teahouse. They washed up together and slept together every day.
Bai Cenyuan thought that the person holding him was a master of martial arts with an extraordinary destiny. Once he had recovered a little, he would eat him...
But he didn't know that the man was also a talented cook. After entering the teahouse, he never set foot outside again.
The chicken sizzling in the wok turns crispy and golden, while the big red fox crouches beside it, watching.
Yan Yan smiles. "Help me bring in customers, and all the fried chicken is yours."
Bai Cenyuan thinks, The nerve!
The next day, Bai Cenyuan transforms into a handsome man dressed in white, playing the zither and telling stories.
The teahouse is packed with customers, busier than ever.
#Mini Scene#
Bai Cenyuan: Once I learn to make fried chicken, I'll eat him. This king will never be a servant!
Yan Yan: It's getting cold. Let's sell hot pot!
Bai Cenyuan: !! Once I learn to make hot pot, this king will never be a servant!
Yan Yan: It's getting hot. Let's sell ice cream!
Bai Cenyuan: !! (The big fox is furious and takes off.jpg)

Reader's Guide:
1. A very sweet, cozy, health-conscious farming story. It starts slowly, and delicious food makes appearances.
2. The bottom is not adored by everyone; the people who dote on him are all family. He's very laid-back, so this isn't a power fantasy.
3. The top and bottom dote on each other. The fox is aloof and haughty, a demon who refuses to be controlled. Taming him takes time, and he won't be sweet to the bottom right from the start.
