[I tried writing a sweet romance, but it turns out this isn't my strong suit. I can't keep going...]
Qian Sinian, an Earthling, never imagined she'd one day be planted in the ground like a crop, and by a prince revered by countless subjects, no less.
At that moment, he was crouching on the ground, watering her intently. With innocent eyes, he tried to comfort her bewildered expression.
“I hope you sprout soon and grow into a lush, leafy plant.”
Qian Sinian collapsed. “Do I get to eat my fill of dirt? I'll starve to death, okay!”
But she couldn't go back. How could an ordinary Earthling like her find her way out of a virtual world alone? Whatever, becoming an immortal didn't matter. She just wanted to see what paradise looked like.
May Bodhisattva show mercy and take her away already. She's sick of living...
The sky has its rivers of stars, and the earth its fireflies. On the long journey through the universe, across countless light-years, they happened to meet.
Reading notes:
1. A spacefaring story with no mechs, but plenty of wondrous creatures.
2. The male lead doesn't understand love very well at first. He's an alien, after all. Their relationship develops gradually, like a gentle stream.
3. Not a wish-fulfillment story. Sweetness and angst in equal measure.
4. The story has a complete outline, and everything follows the plot as planned.

Theme: Fill your days with things you love, and don't let loneliness surround you.
Come on, this idea feels very fresh!
