---- I won't put the story behind a paywall and won't abandon it, but I can't guarantee a regular update schedule for now. Feel free to let it build up and read it when it's complete.
Xu Linglu, the legitimate second son of the Left Chancellor's household, had an ill-fated destiny. As a child, he was taken to the modern era by his powerful master, where he spent eighteen years being a couch potato amid the internet, food delivery, and anime.
Who knew his master would say, "Go back and save the world to earn merit. Otherwise, you still won't live past twenty-five."
Xu Linglu hadn't even finished saying, "I'm not going," before his master shoved him into a dimensional space, equipped him with a magical artifact, and kicked him back to ancient times.

Other celestial masters catch ghosts with talismans, incantations, and peachwood swords.
Xu Linglu: That's too tiring. I don't want to fight. I just want to lie flat.
Armed with the exquisite makeup gift set he'd brought from the modern era, he successfully soothed a mountain goddess on the verge of going berserk.
He helped a book-loving ghost break into the web-novel world and become a best-selling author.
He even gave his own kitten to a cat demon as a boyfriend.
Lazy Celestial Master: I'll do anything to lie flat!
Kitten: Meow! Woof?

Wei Jingcheng, Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, had been self-disciplined and courteous since childhood, with the world in his heart and no personal desires, only public duties.
But after meeting Xu Linglu, he changed.
He used to be frugal and unassuming, wearing nothing but his official uniform every day.
Now he wanted to wear the finest matching outfits with Xu Linglu.
He used to ride out on horseback to investigate cases.
Now he not only had to prepare the finest carriage, but also snacks, storybooks, and soft cushions.
He claimed it was so the young celestial master could deal with spirits and ghosts without a hitch.
But when they truly encountered a dangerous ghost, even with his legs shaking in fear, Vice Minister Wei still shielded the young celestial master and told him to run first.
Xu Linglu stepped out from behind him, dispatched the ghost with ease, clapped his hands, and said, "Lord Wei, your great kindness is beyond repayment. I don't know how I could ever make it up to you."
Wei Jingcheng wiped the talisman ash from his cheek and said, "Then come back to my manor with me and protect me for the rest of my life. That will be your repayment."

Reader's Guide:
1. A pampered, frail, lazy, sweet-natured celestial master bottom x a wise, composed, ghost-fearing prince top
2. One-on-one, with both partners doting on each other.
3. The main plot consists of multiple shorter stories. Some are sweet and some angsty, some joyful and some sad, and the leads of each story get plenty of page time.
4. Daily updates after the story goes behind a paywall. If there's no update, a hiatus notice will be posted.
Theme: Reject superstition and believe in science.
I'm very sorry, little angels, I'm back.
In the past few months, I have experienced two infections, continued sequelae, the death of an elder in the family, and lost my job. This illness has indeed brought about earth-shaking changes in my life, and I really can't think of continuing to write. I'm sorry to keep everyone waiting.
Now my body has basically recovered, but my resistance and immunity are still not strong enough. Sometimes I will have a low fever for no apparent reason, but it will heal on its own in a day or two without taking medicine. I have also found a new job. However, maybe because of the previous reasons, I feel that it is even more stressful now. I have been working as one person for two people. I have been very busy since I joined the job, so I cannot guarantee the stability of updates for the time being.
However, I won't get stuck on the V and I won't get into trouble. I'll put it up as soon as I write it down. You can also wait until it's finished before reading it, twitter~
Very well written! The writing style is really serious, and the light-hearted parts are also very suitable.
Hahahahahahahahaha
Obviously I told Changan that we could only hold hands and not kiss on the green lawn (? ???ω??? ?)
Very well written! Finished spreading flowers! ! !
It's been tied in two days. I love it so much. I hope I'll recover soon.
Big, awesome! Very well written
It looked like a horse riding a spirit deer. I was shocked and laughed to death.
Friends, I must be bleak. QAQ has not guaranteed the update time recently. Try to update as much as possible. Now I have started to have a low-grade fever. Everyone must pay attention to protection.
