The Taoist Priest's Peerless Beauty [Entertainment Industry]

My new novel, I Became a Hit by Livestreaming My Farming, opens in November~

[Synopsis]

Xie Buning looks after a shabby old Taoist temple in the mountains, and is so poor that all he has left is his pretty face.

The roof leaks, the statues are peeling, incense offerings are scarce, and all he has to eat year-round is cabbage and radishes. He can't go on living like this!

He packs up his belongings and heads down the mountain, accidentally landing a role in a famous director's production.

Everyone thinks he got the part because of his looks.

While filming in the mountains, the crew encounters one terrifying, bizarre incident after another.

A tent where sighs sound in the middle of the night, though no one's inside. Power cables that snap for no reason. An actress whose face turns into a stranger's on camera...

Everyone on set is terrified, and so shaken that they give up on filming.

Xie Buning, dismissed as someone who coasts on his looks and a rare pretty face, calmly builds a fire in an open space just as everyone is on the verge of despair.

Everyone freezes. "What are you doing?"

Xie Buning calmly brushes oil onto an eggplant. "Let's have a barbecue first."

Everyone: ???

Later, when they see evil spirits trembling at Xie Buning's feet, they finally understand: he doesn't coast on his looks, he makes a living by face-slapping!

While filming, Xie Buning comes across a wandering soul.

The man is tall, long-legged, and has an eight-pack. His bearing is noble and aloof, and his pale eyes are so chaste that he seems to have no worldly desires.

Xie Buning orders him around, teases him, acts cute with him, and draws cold, disdainful eyes on his little paper-figure body.

The man glances at Xie Buning with those pale eyes as if nothing matters, yet gradually starts granting his every request.

When the wandering soul finally returns to his body, Xie Buning discovers that the man who seemed so disinterested in sex is the company's newly appointed CEO.

Underling: You're going to lose your job.

Xie Buning calmly lights a cigarette. "Don't panic. It's no big deal."

An upright, adorable, and shamelessly impressive uke X a CEO with no worldly desires seme

Goofy, sweet, and satisfying
