Xie Xuan is an alchemist who diligently makes his living refining pills at his sect. He earns a salary of ten spirit stones a day, and has to raise three children he picked up along the way.
Life is a little hard, but luckily the kids are sweet and sensible. The eldest is sharp-tongued but soft-hearted and independent; the second is gentle, beautiful, and considerate; the third is clingy, loves to pout, and cries at the drop of a hat. Every one of them makes Xie Xuan's life so easy that he wakes up smiling from his dreams.
Then, one day, Xie Xuan really did have a dream. In it, all three of his kids turned out to be characters in a book.
The eldest was a lunatic.
The second was a lovesick obsessive.
The third was sweet on the outside and sinister within.
What's more, when they grew up, they would become the three most vicious, most devious, and most terrifying villains in the whole book.
Xie Xuan: ?
His pill-refining hands trembled ever so slightly.
#Just an unnamed passerby#
#Yet he raised three kids who would destroy the world#
After that day, Xie Xuan really did uncover some clues, and tried his best to raise them to be sunny, well-adjusted people.
Once he had successfully raised them to be sunny, well-adjusted people, Xie Xuan was relieved, convinced that everything had changed. He only needed to follow the book's instructions and fake his death before disappearing for a while to completely change the three kids' fates.
But when Xie Xuan returned, fully recovered from his fake death, and set out to find the kids with a battered family letter in hand, he found three very different children instead.
The newly crowned Demon Venerable dug his nails into his palm, his voice feverish with madness. "Fake your death? Have you got other kids now?"
The calamity-bringing demon dragon coiled beside him, smiling gently. "Father, hurry and pick a little cage you like."
The head of the evil sect came with sword in hand, his eyes red-rimmed. "Why did you abandon me? Don't you like good children best?"
Xie Xuan: Um, sorry, who are you? Have you seen the kids I lost?
The kids themselves: ?
[Bonus Scene]
The protagonist: "Who are you looking for?"
Xie Xuan: "Xie Duyi, Xie Yihan, Xie Zan. Who are you looking for?"
The protagonist: "What a coincidence, I'm looking for them too."
Xie Xuan: "Oh? What do you want with them?"
The protagonist: "I'm going to kill them and rid the world of evil! What about you, fellow cultivator?"
Xie Xuan: "...Uh, I'm looking for a happy family reunion."
The protagonist: ?
[Important] There will be no inappropriate behavior or romantic feelings before they grow up.
Coming soon: After Saving the Male Lead Three Times, I Realized I Saved the Wrong Person
Synopsis:
You Ning receives a strange mission. He must transmigrate into a book, find the male lead, and give him sunshine-like warmth during his painful, dark childhood, his cruelly mistreated adolescence, and his youth spent ostracized by everyone. Then he must quietly fake his death and disappear.
That was all the useful information he got.
You Ning transmigrates into the book, looks down, and sees a pitiful little child clinging tightly to his leg in the snow on a freezing winter day.
Well, looks like the kid came right to him.
He scoops the child up and says earnestly, "From now on, I'm your dad. I'll raise you."
*
When Cui Yan was five, his birth parents abandoned him on the street. In the midst of a snowy winter, he nearly froze to death. He survived on the little bit of charcoal in an earth god temple, drank melted snow when he was thirsty, and went out begging or stealing money when he was hungry.
Then came the day he would remember forever.
Cui Yan pretended to beg, just about to reach for the money pouch of the man in front of him.
But the man smiled and said, "From now on, I'm your dad. I'll raise you."
Cui Yan: ...
Is he all right?
For the warmth of his childhood, You Ning takes him back to his original body's home, where he has a brazier to keep him warm, delicious food to eat, and gentle words to soothe him. Just as the male lead begins to let down his guard,
You Ning promptly drops dead.
For the warmth of his adolescence, You Ning changes his appearance, washes his clothes, cooks for him, fans him when he's hot, and warms his bed when he's cold. Just as the male lead's life starts getting better,
You Ning promptly drops dead again.
For the warmth of his youth, You Ning becomes a shadow guard. The male lead, once a little kid, has grown into the crown prince of the current dynasty, second only to The Outcast and above everyone else, yet he faces impeachment from the court officials.
You Ning does everything he can to eliminate the prince's political enemies and win over loyal ministers. With the mission complete, he's just about to drop dead one more time
"Where do you think you're going?"
Cui Yan gives him a knowing smile.
"Um, out for a walk," You Ning replies.
Cui Yan's smile deepens, madness surging in his eyes.
"Want to take a walk on my bed?"
You Ning: ??
He gets flipped over and pinned down by the dog of a son he raised.
You Ning thinks,
Fine, I'll put up with it.
I raised him myself. I can't bring myself to beat him to death.
Besides, he's the male lead. Killing him would ruin the plot.
At court the next morning, Cui Yan unusually asks him to accompany him.
As a shadow guard, You Ning lies on a crossbeam above the court, watching out of boredom.
His gaze sweeps across the hall, then suddenly lands on a young man's head. There, in bold black characters, are the words:
[I am the male lead]
You Ning: ?
Then who is Cui Yan????
#I went to all that trouble to save my son and he slept with me#
#And I saved the wrong guy, damn it#

Theme: Ordinary yet profound affection helps people grow.
Maomao's knitting needle runs through the entire text, which made me laugh to death
The little rag got what he wanted, the next two only had dog food and lemons
Cry.
I give you more flowers than I can hold!
These four-leaf clovers are for you too!
Finished... Finished spreading flowers~ (T ^ T)
I'm not reluctant, huh...
I also want to make a small sign with the words "Happy Everyday" written on it and hang it on the branches of the wishing tree.
May all the good things in the world come to you.
Listen to the wind, smell the rain and dew, and bask in the morning sun.
Comfortable and carefree.
Really.
Shuai Zun's words made me think deeply for a long time.
It really makes sense. (Serious face)
Good-looking, good-looking, hehehe, I like it very much
It's great, but I don't like the ending
It's so well written, I really don't know what to say. After the bottleneck period, I found an article that I can read and it's so good.
Such an incisive summary, the little boy is very smart~
Come on, bad sister, give me a hug~
(Hiding the sack in his hand) (Tilting his head and smiling softly)

I've finished watching it. It's really good.
