As a flower demon with five hundred years of cultivation, Fuyu opened a restaurant called the Taotie Eatery in Qinghe Town, drawing on five hundred years of foodie experience. Her cooking was famous throughout the surrounding countryside.
Fuyu was thriving in Qinghe Town.
That is, until another restaurant opened across the street and openly challenged her.
She sold salted duck, and the place opposite sold salted chicken. She sold fresh, fragrant mushrooms, and the place opposite sold poisonous mushrooms...
Fuyu was so furious her teeth ached. She grabbed a knife and marched into the restaurant across the street...
Only to come back in defeat...
Something was fishy. Fuyu wondered why her heart ached so sharply whenever she saw the owner of the restaurant across the street, and why she always lost some of her bravado.
As an ancient deity disguised as the owner of a tiny restaurant, having to think up new ways every day to compete with the place across the street and get its owner's attention, Hao Yuan was also at a loss.
He had searched for five hundred years for his betrothed, a fellow High God, only to find that she had become a little demon with a mere five hundred years of cultivation. That was bad enough, but she'd also forgotten him completely.
If she'd forgotten, then so be it. It was probably better that she forget those painful memories.
Heaven had shown him mercy. At least she was still alive, and at least he still had a chance to make things right with her...
#This is probably a sweet (and angst-filled) story about an ancient deity chasing his wife after a not-quite-hellish breakup#
