[This book will go premium on October 18. The chapters going back behind the paywall start at Chapter 23. If you've already read them, you don't need to buy them again.] [Next book: Going Home to Meet the Parents with an Infinite-Flow Boss [Infinite]] [Preorder: Interstellar Big Shot, Slacking Through the Apocalypse] Blurb: [Upright Ghost Ancestor who spoils his husband without limits] X [Sweet and vulnerable (not really), black-hearted fog demon bottom (a demon born from mist)] Qi Chuming is the first ghost in the world. He never imagined that one day he would shoulder the responsibility of maintaining peace. It's all for the sake of making a living and taking care of his precious darling. It all goes back countless millions of days ago. He was drifting along when he found a frail, pitiful little fog demon. From then on, the Ghost Ancestor forgot his usual attitude of "the world has nothing to do with me." If it's for his darling, can earning money really be called working? If it's for his darling, can opening a shop really be called embarrassing? If it's for his darling, maintaining world peace is only right! To keep the balance between the living and the dead, the Ghost Ancestor patrols everywhere, punishing evil and fighting injustice. Some boys in a dorm play with a spirit pen. Qi Chuming stops the spirit pen poking its head out of the dormitory doorway. "Here's your fine." The spirit pen, whose entire fortune has suddenly been confiscated: ??? A third-rate actress in showbiz keeps a little ghost. Qi Chuming pokes the ghost on the head and gives it a talking-to. The little ghost: ??? A group of people gather to practice a heretical religion. Qi Chuming borrows a passerby's phone to call the police, then charges into the room. Qi Chuming: Which evil god are you worshipping? Call them out! It's been ages since I beat one up, and now they think they can get away with anything! Cultists: ??? Evil god: This has nothing to do with me! I was forced into it! Qi Chuming: For my darling (pause) and world peace, I hope everyone will be good demons, monsters, and ghosts. Times have changed. In this new era, when faced with all kinds of temptations, we must stand firm and build a good culture of absolutely not causing trouble! The demons, monsters, and ghosts below him, listlessly: Yes! [Warning!!! This story is entirely fictional. Superstition is never the answer!!! Believe in science!!! Treasure your life!!!] (Manually highlighted in red and bold!) [P.S.]: 1. This is a silly comedy! I'll do my best to make it silly! So don't worry about the logic! 2. The pairing never changes and is irreversible! 3. If it's not for you, don't read it. Feel free to leave without telling me! Thanks for our brief encounter! Maybe we'll meet again. 4. The Ghost Ancestor is the strongest in the setting and has lived longer than anyone else in the world, so he's definitely the older one. 5. The Ghost Ancestor's priorities are probably: darling > everything else. So calling him love-struck wouldn't be wrong, I guess (?) Please check out the preorder, Interstellar Big Shot, Slacking Through the Apocalypse! [Reborn CEO top, Lou Jingce X Interstellar Big Shot bottom, Ming Ji] Ming Ji is a top scientist in the interstellar world. His inventions have benefited the entire galaxy, and he has worked continuously for decades without a break. His only relative, his nephew, is a freeloader and a hopeless romantic, plotting to kill him and inherit his fortune. Ming Ji: Heh. I'm done. He sets off in a spaceship to find somewhere to retire and take it easy, but runs into a black hole... When he opens his eyes again, he's become the rich family's pretty little bride, married off to an unconscious CEO on Blue Star. Ming Ji: Lots of money, little hassle. Time to start slacking! The interstellar world has its perks, but modern life has its charms too! So thought the former interstellar big shot Ming Ji, who had just ordered takeout from more than a dozen restaurants, plus all kinds of milk tea and fruit drinks. On the second day of their marriage, the CEO, who had been unconscious for two months, woke up. He didn't ask for a divorce or take back his company. Instead, he brazenly stole half of Ming Ji's premium takeout meal. Ming Ji: ??? Ming Ji watched him arrange to stockpile food, reinforce the house and car, and spend a fortune on weapons. He figured his bargain of a husband must be feeling insecure. It was his husband's own money, anyway, so he didn't care. On the third day of their marriage, the world suddenly ended, and a zombie virus ravaged the planet. Ming Ji woke from a nap with the black muzzle of a gun pointed at him. Ming Ji: ??? Was he planning to skip the divorce and just get rid of him instead? Lou Jingce, reborn from ten years in the apocalypse, finally took a careful look at the partner he had married in name only. Lou Jingce: You... didn't turn into a zombie? Ming Ji: Was I... supposed to? Ming Ji was deeply grateful to his rich relatives, who had turned into zombies early. How else could he have found such a perfect husband? Even in the apocalypse, he was living better than everyone else. Until Haicheng fell. Lou Jingce's escape vehicle bounced around so badly that Ming Ji threw up like he was pregnant. Ming Ji, who'd been trying to retire and slack off, finally couldn't take it anymore and brought out his black technology. Lou Jingce: ??? Lou Jingce: Impressive. Lou Jingce: When I came back and found you hadn't turned into a zombie, I knew you had a golden finger. The golden finger himself, Ming Ji: Exactly! The two of us were made for each other :) He snuggled back into his husband's arms and munched on potato chips, crunch, crunch... Theme: World peace makes everyone happy! Don't cause trouble. Cherish life and live well.
