Sickly but optimistic / beloved beauty / master receiving character x obsessive and corrupted / dramatic schemer / sly disciple pursuing character

Su Jinliang is the peerlessly beautiful protagonist of a romance novel between men. According to the plot, he and his disciple Feng Yinyuan are about to fall in love, but a villain who transmigrated into a book takes control of him partway through.

Seven years later, the Demon Clan invades again. Only then does the villain leave, but Su Jinliang is left sick and helpless, beyond saving.

After enduring cruel torture and humiliation at the hands of his former beloved disciple, Su Jinliang finally refuses to accept the blame and takes the olive branch offered by the System.

From then on, he begins a life on the run.

At first, Su Jinliang runs to escape his pursuers, but he soon takes to it like a fish to water, wandering the world as he pleases.

In the eyes of outsiders, he always appears at crucial moments like a god descending from the heavens. People are amazed to discover that this once-powerful political manipulator can still turn the tide, yet is as bright as the moon, with a chivalrous heart and tender feelings.

Soon, the truth comes to light.

His senior brothers and sisters from the sect are heartbroken for him and rush to stand up for him.

The Demon King takes his hand and, full of devotion, proposes to him in front of everyone.

In the crowd, someone panics at once. “Master, please don’t marry him!”

*

Seven years ago, Feng Yinyuan only wanted to stay by Su Jinliang’s side as the disciple he valued most.

Now, he has considered imprisonment and coercion. The truth doesn’t matter. Love or hate, it’s all fine, as long as Su Jinliang is his master.

That young love was buried deep in his heart from the moment it began. After years apart, it has long since become an obsession bordering on madness.

You have not changed, but I have.

[Reading Guide]

1. The master’s powers are weakened at first, but he recovers quickly. “On the run” means he zips from one place to another.

2. A little angst at the beginning, followed by self-redemption. Not your typical crematorium, with a sweet and satisfying later half.

New novel blurb:

Everyone at school says that the campus heartthrob, Luo Yuli, and the Omega from the School of Arts are a match made in heaven. Their pheromones, white pine and orange blossom, are a perfect match with a compatibility rate of 90%.

Yu Xian doesn’t agree, especially since his compatibility with Luo Yuli is 88%. Having believed since childhood that if he wants something, he should go after it, Yu Xian is good-looking and comes from a good family. It only took him a few days of effort to steal the campus heartthrob away from that romantic story.

Yu Xian thought his charm could overcome the 2% gap. But seven years into their marriage, he was still living in the shadow of that Omega, constantly being compared to him.

The other man was a sought-after stylist, while Yu Xian was a famous resource-heavy star dismissed as a pretty face.

His relationship with Luo Yuli had gradually grown dull and fraught with conflict.

After living his life over again, he decided to let Luo Yuli go, and himself as well. He walked right past the two of them, living his own life as the dream Omega everyone else could only admire from afar.

He was still the same Yu Xian who went after what he wanted. He hadn’t fallen behind in grades, work, or acting. But why was that Omega still making a scene over Luo Yuli’s feelings for him?

After accidentally witnessing the other man’s unsuccessful attempt to pursue someone, Yu Xian realized he’d never had the chance to mock him like this in his previous life.

“Don’t blame the road for being uneven. You’re just not good enough.”

Later, he accidentally discovered that Luo Yuli had been quietly supporting research into changing pheromones, and suddenly understood another truth: what’s mine is still mine.

The sun was shining, and the room was bright and immaculate. Yu Xian crooked a finger at the immaculate man.

The man looked a little surprised and a little flustered, but still gripped Yu Xian firmly by the waist. “Didn’t you say you don’t like Alphas like me?”

Yu Xian smiled and tapped his lips against the man’s. “You’re the one who started this.”

Theme: Only perseverance and relentless action can lay the foundation for success.
