Chapter comments are now open. Come leave a paw print! Coming soon: "A Battlefield Doctor Transmigrates into a Princess Sent to a Foreign Court," "The Secret Identity of an Anime-Crazy Corporate Drone Is Exposed!" and "Figure Skating: From Peking Opera Star to Olympic Champion" In his previous life, Yu Zhuo trained until his body was nearly broken to qualify for the Winter Olympics. But he suffered a serious injury before the competition and died with regrets. When he returns to age fifteen, countries around the world still believe China won't produce a men's singles figure skater capable of winning its first Olympic gold in the next ten years. Yu Zhuo himself is at the lowest point in his life. Online haters: I'm dying! Someone at his level gets a spot in the competition? Must be rigged! Coaches from other countries: China's no threat at all! They can't even make it to the free skate! Men's singles fans: Oh, China? Their performances are weak and their technique is mediocre. There's really nothing worth watching! Yu Zhuo lazily curls his lips, brimming with confidence. At the Junior Grand Prix Final, he bursts onto the scene, landing two clean triple Axels in his short program and free skate. With a total score 11.91 points ahead of the runner-up, he claims the title in one fell swoop! After that come the World Junior Championships, the Grand Prix, the Four Continents Championships, the World Championships, the Olympics... With flawless edges, smooth spins and jumps, and blades kissing the ice as glittering sprays of ice rise around him, he is a king wielding a scepter on the ice, breaking the highest score in human history again and again! Online haters: He's a god! Every spin and jump challenges the limits of humanity. He does the impossible! Coaches from other countries: As long as Yu Zhuo doesn't retire, no other country will ever win gold! Men's singles fans: Ah! I even want to watch him next season! I could watch this program for a hundred million years! He becomes the first skater to achieve a full set of major titles, making his country's national anthem ring out across the world time and time again! Everyone says Fu Ling and Yu Zhuo are evenly matched rivals, born for each other. Only Fu Ling knows that's not true. Yu Zhuo is his god, and Fu Ling longs to desecrate him. So he can only keep his distance. But on the coldest ice, in the darkest night, his god's scorching breath winds around his pounding heart. A dangerous glint flickers in his eyes, his fingers burn, and his voice bewitches him: "Do you dare let me take control of you?" "I do." So he reaches out, crosses the deepest depths of hell, and takes hold of his god. 1. This is a fictional setting. The competition rules and team rosters may be adjusted to suit the story. 2. There are no real-life models. Each character's personality comes from their own unique experiences. 3. The main focus is his career, with a healing, inspirational coming-of-age story. They won't officially get together until adulthood, and the romance develops slowly. A fatherly boy x a boyish dad (not a dad who never stops talking! No dad-like attitude! No dad-like attitude!). Younger top and bottom, each other's one and only. The bottom is adored by everyone, and the top is wildly jealous. 4. He'll break through the difficulty level, with no cheat or golden finger. The protagonist himself is the greatest golden finger. [Blurb screenshot dated November 28, 2021] Here's a coming-soon title! "A Battlefield Doctor Transmigrates into a Princess Sent to a Foreign Court" Jiang Ruzhuo was a military doctor. After dying on the front lines, he wakes up to find himself a fake princess of Great Qi, disguised as a woman and sent north to marry into the Di court. The king of the Di is gravely ill and near death, so his younger brother, Tuoba Yuanrong, travels thousands of miles to escort the bride in his brother's place. He looks down at the delicate Central Plains princess with his sharp eyes, thinking that his slender fingers are weaker than a grassland woman's, his narrow waist less nimble. There's no way he could be good enough for his elder brother. But he can't disobey his brother's command. Pinching his nose, he puts on the wedding robes and performs the wedding rites with Jiang Ruzhuo in his brother's place. During the nuptial drinking ceremony, he curls his lip and deliberately reveals the fearsome wolf tattoo beneath his red robes, planning to give his new sister-in-law a taste of grassland customs in advance, lest he be scared to death before they even reach the royal court. Jiang Ruzhuo catches the scent of rust and blood he can't quite conceal. He smiles calmly, picks up the nuptial wine, and drinks it down, keeping his hostility hidden within his wide sleeves. Once he reaches the grasslands, Jiang Ruzhuo only plans to conceal the fact that he's a man, not a woman, and live quietly. But faced with dung everywhere, emaciated cattle and horses, and sick people crying out in pain, he can't help rolling up his sleeves and getting to work. He drives out epidemics, cultivates pasture, grows crops, and builds schools... The cattle and sheep grow sleek and healthy. No one starves to death in the bitter winter anymore, and the herders come to regard him as the purest goddess on the grasslands, practically prostrating themselves whenever they see him. Jiang Ruzhuo is so busy that he has no time for Tuoba Yuanrong, and doesn't even notice his gaze growing increasingly fierce. One day, Jiang Ruzhuo is pulled into a military tent while bent over his desk, sketching plans for an irrigation canal. The tent is dim, lit by only one flickering candle. Jiang Ruzhuo bows with polite reserve. "Your Majesty, what is the matter?" "Your Majesty? By the customs of our grasslands, I should have inherited my elder brother's wife." Tuoba Yuanrong bites Jiang Ruzhuo's shoulder fiercely. The cold little red bead at the end of his braid presses against his warm skin. "Besides, I was the one who married you, the one who performed the rites with you, and the one who consummated the marriage with you. Whether you're a man or a woman, you should call me 'husband.' Don't you agree?" "The Secret Identity of an Anime-Crazy Corporate Drone Is Exposed!" Blurb: Lang Jishu injures his leg and struggles with daily life. At that very moment, his boyfriend goes abroad, leaving him in the care of his younger cousin. The cousin, Xie Tu, is an artificial intelligence PhD who has just returned from overseas. But Lang Jishu thinks he might as well have been given a mentally challenged robot. Because Professor Lang, mature, steady, and accomplished, has a secret identity: a beloved creator in the danmei fan art community. After spending some time together, Lang Jishu discovers two wonderful things about Xie Tu. First, Xie Tu knows nothing about anime and has no overlap with Lang Jishu's circles. Second, Xie Tu can do every household chore and is especially good at cooking. Lang Jishu thinks the chances of his secret identity being exposed are zero, so he keeps his secret tucked away while gradually getting used to Xie Tu's attentive care. But things soon start to take a strange turn. One day, Lang Jishu posts a fan art drawing online. In the drawing, a pair of hands is tightly encased in black leather gloves, the prominent knuckles radiating strength. The next day, Xie Tu, who has been learning to sketch from Lang Jishu, shows up wearing a pair of leather fingerless gloves. Lang Jishu breaks out in a cold sweat: Is my secret identity about to be exposed?! "I heard these gloves keep the drawing from getting smudged," Xie Tu says casually. "Sorry, I'm not very familiar with them. Did I buy the wrong ones? Maybe you could teach me, teacher?" Lang Jishu desperately holds down his flimsy secret identity while his eyes keep drifting toward those beautifully defined hands. Another day, Lang Jishu receives a published book from the author whose cover he was commissioned to design. "You like this?" Xie Tu opens the book and reads off the keywords. "Oh, younger top, secret identity, living together, intense push and pull..." Lang Jishu covers his burning red ears. "Stop reading!" Xie Tu wraps his arms around him from behind, their cheeks and temples brushing. "Teacher, could you give me an exclusive license too?" Lang Jishu's eyes grow misty with tears. "...No! Get lost!" The moment Xie Tu steps into Lang Jishu's home with his suitcase, he silently tells his scumbag cousin: Your sister-in-law is great. He's mine now. "Figure Skating: From Peking Opera Star to Olympic Champion" Chu Libai was born the legitimate son of an aristocratic family. But in a turbulent era, his family was like a tiny boat on a vast sea, breaking apart as the world around it crumbled. He hides his identity and moves through the world of fame and fortune as a Peking opera star, hoping that even his small contribution can help daylight break through the darkness before dawn. He secretly delivers the final message to the revolutionaries. A blaze rises into the sky, and in the end, he never gets to hear the cheers celebrating his country's victory. When Chu Libai opens his eyes again, it's 2002, and he's in a new country, reincarnated as a young figure skater. He gazes at a nation rising from ruin, thriving and full of hope. There are no wars or gunfire here. Everyone wears a relaxed smile, and no one fears they won't live to grow up. What a wonderful place. This is the country countless people once dreamed of. And yet, in men's singles figure skating, the rest of the world still mocks the country as the "Sick Man of East Asia." It doesn't even have the qualifications to compete in the Olympics. Chu Libai resolves to fulfill the young skater's last wish. He will achieve a breakthrough from zero in his lifetime and hear the national anthem of the New China at the highest level of competition! Theme: Bring glory to the country.
