A Relaxing Farm Stay

After graduating from university, should you get an ordinary job or go home and run the farm stay in the suburbs?

Yu You couldn't decide between the two, until he unexpectedly activated the Farm Stay Stress-Relief System.

Help people relax and relieve their stress, earn experience points, and exchange them for a vast array of rare items.

Why choose? Hurry up and pack your bags to go home!

.

Before long, some strange guests started appearing at the farm stay.

They included emperors who had ruled dynasties for generations, aloof sword immortals who could move mountains and seas, and interstellar doctors who had ushered in the age of virtual reality...

System: They're travelers from different time periods here on vacation. They're under so much stress they're on the verge of a breakdown. Save them! Succeed and you'll receive a gift from the System. Fail and you'll lose experience points!

Yu You: ?!

Failure isn't an option.

Everyone says starting a business is hard, and Cheng Zhiyu couldn't agree more.

When he first started his company, an unscrupulous agent tricked him into setting up in a remote tech park, with nothing but a single road between him and a vast stretch of farmland.

There wasn't a decent restaurant nearby, and food delivery was out of the question.

Luckily, when one door closes, another opens. He discovered the farm stay across the road.

It was comfortable, the food was delicious, and stepping inside made all his fatigue melt away.

It soon became his regular dining spot.

Crispy, tender fried meatballs, rich but not greasy pork shanks, and soy-braised pork spine: he couldn't get enough of them.

Even the weird guests became a source of inspiration for his work.

And then there was the young owner of the farm stay...

In short, he decided he wasn't leaving!

* A food-and-business story, mostly about everyday family life and eating good food.

Upcoming Novel 1: Back to My Daughter's Youth

Actress Qiao Ran had acting talent, but she was overweight and unattractive. In ten years in the industry, she had played nothing but forgettable supporting roles.

"She wants to play the lead looking like that? Has she even looked in a mirror to see if she's fit for it?"

"She's as fat as a pig, and her face is covered in acne scars..."

After her divorce, Qiao Yuzhen worked hard and built a business from the ground up, striving to give her family a better life.

After she died, her spirit drifted to her daughter's side, where she heard people talking about her daughter like this behind her back.

Qiao Yuzhen was heartbroken. When she opened her eyes again, she was back twenty years in the past, when her daughter was in elementary school.

In this life, she swore she wouldn't be a workaholic. She would master cooking, stay by her daughter's side, take care of her, and make life better for the whole family.

Years later, on a film set.

During a break, Qiao Ranran took a lunch box out of her insulated bag.

Glossy sweet-and-sour pork ribs, pork rolls wrapped in tofu skin with a rich sauce, crisp and refreshing shiitake mushrooms with bok choy, and cute little bear cakes with homemade healthy milk tea.

Healthy and nutritious, with something different every day.

After filming together for a few weeks, the cast finally couldn't resist crowding around to ask, "Ranran, does your mom need any more daughters or sons?"

Upcoming Novel 2: My White Moonlight Ascended the Moment I Confessed

A Ying's white moonlight was the immortal who cleared her name after she was forced to kneel in humiliation in the royal capital at age sixteen.

The immortal was upright and incorruptible, as bright and pure as the moon.

A Ying regarded him as a guiding light and embarked on the path to immortality. She followed him from the mortal realm to the immortal sect, eventually becoming a renowned female sword immortal.

When A Ying finally gathered the courage to confess her feelings to the immortal, she clearly saw him frown in astonishment. Then, a storm of tribulation lightning surged down, and the immortal ascended!

A Ying, after the immortal's ascension: Was my love so terrifying that it scared him into ascending on the spot?

The immortal, after ascending in broad daylight: The thunder was so loud. Could I have imagined what I heard?

*

Ascending is easy. Coming back down is hard.

After ascending, the immortal spent every day thinking about how to return to the one he loved. At last, he found a way. He split his soul into countless fragments and sent them to the lower realm. One day, he possessed the watchdog guarding the gate of his beloved's sect. The next, he inhabited the magpie outside her window. The day after that, he took the place of the mosquito disturbing her sleep and lingered by her pillow...

The immortal murmured softly: Yingying, Yingying.

*

In the dead of night, A Ying would always hear a buzzing in her ear. She lit a candle and slapped the mosquito dead.

At last, peace and quiet.

Still, A Ying couldn't understand why, ever since the immortal ascended, strange things kept appearing around her.

Theme: Relax and embrace happiness.
