My Nonhuman Partner Is Just Waiting for Me to Die

New novel, please add it to your collection: Yes, Please Accept My Condolences for Your Lover (Transmigrate Into a Book) Tao Luo's cousin, who was born on the exact same day as him, secretly switched their fates. All the good deeds Tao Luo had done were credited to his cousin instead. So Tao Luo's childhood friend, friends, and senior schoolmates, all those he had helped, ended up treating the thief of a cousin as precious. Fortunately, the fate-switching technique would lose its power after twenty years. On Tao Luo's eighteenth birthday, while the banquet in the front courtyard was a decadent affair, he was lured to the water's edge in the back courtyard. As he was dying, he heard his cousin say in his ear, "I'm sorry. You have to die." His cousin held him down in the water until he drowned, then dumped his body in a dry well. * Two years later, Bai Fuheng, a renowned feng shui master, was severely injured in a car accident and clung to life. He planned to use a ghost marriage to borrow Tao Luo's good fortune and save himself. The Tao family agreed to let him borrow Tao Luo's fortune, but the Bai family would have to give them money and business partnerships, and Bai Fuheng would also have to kill an evil ghost. According to what Bai Fuheng had been told, Tao Luo was unremarkable and devious. While alive, he had been jealous of his cousin, and after death, he had become a vengeful ghost who would never leave the Tao family alone. Bai Fuheng agreed. Not long after the ghost marriage certificate was sent out by a pair of paper children, a dripping-wet water ghost came to his door with two paper children. Holding the marriage certificate, he knocked timidly and aggrievedly. "C-could you die sooner?" To celebrate the banishment of the evil ghost, the Tao family held a banquet. Everyone came to celebrate that the family's beloved had finally escaped the evil ghost's torment. But... the "evil ghost" Tao Luo, walking behind Bai Fuheng, was still the same youthful boy he had been before his death, his eyes bright and his gaze sparkling. As always, they looked down on Tao Luo, thinking he would once again gaze at them with adoration. But with their fates restored and the truth revealed... Tao Luo hid behind Bai Fuheng and smiled at them. "Nice to meet you." As soon as he finished speaking, someone's wineglass slipped from their hand and shattered, while someone else's eyes instantly reddened... The beloved boy they had been longing for was actually... Tao Luo?! A sweet romance. Short-tempered, roguish exorcist who loves pretty faces (a straight man who turns gay) X a stunning, universally adored young master. The top is the strongest character in the story, has a short temper, and likes good-looking people. He is not a cold, domineering CEO. The bottom is a beautiful young man. Early on, an evil male supporting character switched his fate and altered the memories of those close to him, making everyone think he was ordinary. After his death, his stunning beauty returns! * My Childhood Friend the Cannon Fodder Awakened Ning Si, a cannon-fodder character in a novel about a universally adored person, awakened. His stepsister was the heroine, while he was just a minor character who would die of cancer midway through the story. The heroine had a popular boy, a domineering CEO, and handsome men around her... Ning Si was in love with his friend Gu Chen, but his love was unrequited: domineering CEO Gu Chen loved the heroine. Gu Chen loved the heroine desperately, giving her his whole heart, but in the end he left with regrets. Before leaving, he gave all his assets to Ning Si. Gu Chen put their past differences aside and used his connections to introduce Ning Si to a high-quality rich man, hoping his childhood friend would move on from his feelings for him and start a new life. In the original story, Ning Si pretended to accept in order to keep Gu Chen from worrying. In the end, Gu Chen went far away and found peace. But Ning Si died of illness, consumed by worry. Ning Si: I don't understand what the hell you're doing. Ning Si: But what do you mean, you found peace? ━┻︵╰(‵□′)╯︵┻━┻. * After awakening, Ning Si remembered that he would die of illness soon and refused to play the role of a tool. Liking a straight man is too painful. He was going to let loose! The night before Gu Chen found peace, Ning Si cut the power to his house, unplugged the internet, took out the SIM card from his phone, and gave the servants the night off. Then he leaned close and whispered, "I'm gonna hook up with a womanizer tonight!" Then he slammed the door and strode away! That day, Gu Chen was so furious he stood up from his wheelchair, grabbed the cane he hadn't used in ages, and angrily walked more than a thousand steps! * Gu Chen felt that his childhood friend Ning Si had finally entered a belated rebellious phase in his twenties. He told him to live a good life, and Ning Si fell in love with going to nightclubs. He told him not to get fooled by a scumbag, but Ning Si insisted the guy wasn't so bad. He told him to stop hanging around a straight man like him. And Ning Si promptly blocked him on every messaging app! As the steady and composed Mr. Gu watched his childhood friend about to be embraced around the waist by a scumbag, something inside him snapped. His back teeth clenched tight. With red-rimmed eyes, he forcibly pulled Ning Si into his arms... "My little darling..." Disabled tycoon who pretends to be straight X awakened, troublesome childhood friend.
