Reborn: Every Day, I'm Chasing My Wife Through Hell

[I finally finished it.]

[I finally finished it.]

[I finally finished it.]

I'll say it three times for emphasis!!!

I have to admit my mistakes. For personal reasons, I dragged this story out for a long time. Then, because the outline was a mess and the pacing went off the rails, the beginning (and maybe not just the beginning) turned out extremely bizarre... But fortunately, I saw it through to the end.

If the first volume made you angry, you can start from the second volume instead...

Don't call the gong a scumbag. On the contrary, he's the biggest victim in the whole story. _(:з"∠)_

*

A victim gong who looks aloof but is actually socially anxious x a prickly shou who sometimes goes off the rails but is kind at heart (?)

And a big boss who goes crazy every day and isn't exactly right in the head.

[The author's terrible at writing blurbs. This one is especially terrible. QAQ]

01

Yun Qingya was a genius.

By the age of three hundred, he had become a grandmaster of the Deification stage. As if that weren't enough, not long after he broke through, the Heavenly Fate Stone matched him with a genius Dao companion from a reclusive sect.

Yun Qingya fell in love with his Dao companion at first sight. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him, and every day he looked forward to the day they could form a bond and cultivate together.

However, on the very day Yun Qingya's wish came true, an irresistible will of heaven took control of him.

Yun Qingya became a scumbag and fell madly in love with his senior sister.

02

After going through all the classic melodramatic romance tropes, from choosing between two people to falling off a cliff, getting poisoned, going blind, and having his spiritual bones dug out, Yun Qingya's Dao companion was finally driven to death by him.

Holding his Dao companion's urn, Yun Qingya came to his senses as if waking from a dream. He spent every day studying forbidden arts to bring the dead back to life. He did many obsessive things, and in the end, as everyone expected, he was killed with one sword by the young disciple his Dao companion had kindly taken in years before.

03

After Yun Qingya died, he learned that, according to the Heavenly Dao's plans, his Dao companion's young disciple was the one who had gathered all the world's fortune. In other words, a heaven-defying protagonist.

As the young protagonist grew up, Yun Qingya's Dao companion, Fu Xueke, was the only master who had ever shown him kindness. They say that one day as a teacher makes one a father for life. Yun Qingya was not only this world's villainous boss, but also the male lead's sworn enemy, the murderer of his father.

Whether for the greater good or for personal vengeance, Yun Qingya's fate was set: the villain was doomed to die.

The kind of fate that couldn't be changed even with every effort to save him.

Reborn, Yun Qingya reflected on his past life, when the Heavenly Dao had controlled him. He decided that the cause of all the tragedies that followed was that the "Yun Qingya" of his previous life had been a scumbag gong.

Good grief.

The "Yun Qingya" of his previous life was, but he isn't!

04

In this life, Yun Qingya decided to be a decent person.

Cultivation, sects, all of it could go to hell.

Getting his wife back came first.

But when Yun Qingya arrived at the little mountain cottage where Fu Xueke lived, carrying a bundle of thorny branches...

Fu Xueke had been reborn too!!!

[Don't believe this blurb. (x)]

Upcoming novel:

Did Shizun Have Feelings for Me Today?

Also known as: The Unspeakable Dao

Blurb:

Gu Jing was in a car accident. When he woke up, he discovered that he had transmigrated into a wildly popular, trope-filled novel he'd once read, becoming the male lead.

As the male lead, he was destined to rise above everyone and look down on all his rivals.

...But that was the ending.

Gu Jing didn't transmigrate into the ending. Unfortunately, he transmigrated to the beginning, when the male lead, Gu Jian, was five years old and had just achieved the glorious feat of having his entire family killed.

After that, he would be ignored by his master, humiliated by his fellow disciples, betrayed by his first love... Then he would be framed for joining the demonic path and nearly killed by his master in the name of righteousness. Only after surviving by the skin of his teeth could he start cultivating again from the bottom and slowly rise to power.

Gu Jing: ...That's pretty terrifying.

If rising above everyone means going through all that, can he just choose to be a lazy fish who lies flat?

*

After Gu Jian recovered from his injuries, no matter how much he didn't want to, he still had to kneel and offer tea to the master who was supposedly destined to kill him in the name of righteousness.

Gu Jian dragged his feet, already prepared to be treated coldly.

But the master who, in the original story, had left the protagonist to fend for himself for years and then shown no mercy when punishing and exiling him, was surprisingly... "gentle" when he saw Gu Jian?!

Something was clearly off. Considering just how dangerous it was to be a master, Gu Jian reasonably suspected that his master might be a fellow transmigrator.

*

Gu Jian was always trying to use coded phrases to test his master, Xi Weiyang.

But Xi Weiyang had clearly never completed nine years of compulsory education. He knew nothing about "hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron" or "odd stays odd, even stays even."

Gu Jian: ...

Fine. So what if his master was a native of this world?

Would that make the dangerous occupation of "master" any safer? Not at all!

*

Before Gu Jian fell for Xi Weiyang, he always thought Xi Weiyang was an old-fashioned stick-in-the-mud.

After falling for Xi Weiyang, Gu Jian thought, why is it that someone can be so cute even when they're being stubborn?

There was just one little problem.

- Gu Jian could always find "solid evidence" to suspect that his late biological father, Gu Yan, had been Xi Weiyang's white moonlight.

Everyone knew that his father, Gu Yan, had defied convention and lived recklessly. Even after he went from being a young master of a noble family to having nothing, he had still walked away from his family the moment he decided to. Back then, whenever the cultivation world mentioned Gu Yan, people could only shake their heads and sigh. Everyone who had once gathered around him had scattered like clouds, and only Xi Weiyang, his sworn elder brother, had remained as close to him as ever.

Following all sorts of "clues," Gu Jian's suspicions grew and grew until he had imagined an entire melodramatic tragedy. It had everything: a gay man falling for a straight man and being rejected, close friends separated by death, and... substitute romance, among other angsty tropes.

Gu Jian, who had completely cast himself as the adopted little substitute, couldn't take it anymore. Red-eyed, he climbed through the window in the middle of the night and crawled into his master's bed. "Tell me! Have you always treated me as a substitute for my dad? QAQ~"

Xi Weiyang: ???

This is a gong-centric novel.

The shou really is a native of this world!!!

In short, this is a melodramatic little story about a transmigrated disciple who read the so-called "original story" and thought his master was cold, only to discover that his master really is very loving, while he himself is extremely unfilial♂.

A gong (Gu Jian) who fails at becoming a lazy fish x a shou (Xi Weiyang) who has always been diligent and conscientious

Theme: No matter what difficulties you face, always believe in kindness and beauty, and work hard to fight for them.
