Xu Jiao was struck off the Xu family registry because of her parents' love affair, and had to work while studying. Then she received an inheritance from her grandfather: a dilapidated old castle.
After arriving at the castle, laden with her belongings and exhausted from the journey, Xu Jiao decided to film her daily life and pass herself off as an overseas noblewoman. When photos of her working part-time were accidentally exposed, the internet mocked her mercilessly.
Then... she realized something was wrong with the castle.
She accidentally broke a clock, and the space-time in each room changed.
The castle's legendary owners from thousands of years ago appeared, one generation after another, all hopelessly single:
In the bedroom, the top student at a military academy, unable to advance because he lacked a bonded beast, gazed at Xu Jiao with tearful eyes.
In the little garden, an augmented man with a mechanical mermaid was searching for a partner who wouldn't be bewitched by song.
In the basement, a sleeping vampire was waiting for the princess who would save him...
To everyone else, it was a terrifying old castle.
But to Xu Jiao, who could barely afford to eat, it was the perfect place to shoot a TV drama!
Xu Jiao took inspiration from scripts like Love in Outer Space, Reborn as the Sea King's First Love, and The Blood King's Beloved, then relied on her instincts to star in several heart-rending romance dramas in the castle's rooms.
They were a huge hit as soon as they aired.
Xu Jiao went from being timid and cautious to becoming fearless because she was loved, and quickly transformed from a target of online hate into a star.
By sheer coincidence, Xu Jiao's scripts healed the self-isolated hearts of the castle's former owners.
Until one day... the rooms in the castle were connected, and a love triangle headed for a dramatic showdown.
The augmented man and the Star Domain general eyed each other warily, sparks flying.
Augmented man: Fiancée, who is this man?
Star Domain general: I'm your master. Your betrothal to someone else doesn't count without my permission.
The little vampire prince clung to Xu Jiao's leg, sobbing. "Mommy, who are these two uncles...?"
Xu Jiao: ...

The impoverished student Xie Yi found a half-ruined clone snake spirit in an abandoned laboratory. It had a human upper body and a snake's lower half, and was completely unconscious. Under the Spirit Management Act, it would be classified as medical waste and shredded at dawn.
The clone had the same face as Ming Lai, a military commander from the Central Circle. Xie Yi could only wonder which admirer had committed this atrocity.
On impulse, he took pity on it and brought it home, raising it like a life-size BJD doll.
*
No one knew that Xie Yi had once met the original Ming Lai at a hot spring. They had embraced naked, and he had found it impossible to resist the stirrings of his heart.
Xie Yi fed, dressed, and bathed the clone, his eyes swollen with embarrassment as he wondered where to look.
"I got into your alma mater! I want to learn from your fairness, knowledge, wisdom, and strictness!"
Some time later, Xie Yi came back with a miserable expression.
"How could you be convicted of crimes against humanity and tried in military court? No, I have to run for student representative so I can defend you. I don't believe you're that kind of person!"
Later,
Xie Yi was drunk and hazy, his emotions running high.
"Since you'd rather be exiled overseas, then never come back! I'm... no, all of humanity is so disappointed in you!"
Then Xie Yi saw the clone's bowed neck slowly straighten. Its lifeless eyes regained their brilliance.
Its full lips parted, and in the original's voice, with a hint of indulgence beneath the helplessness, it said:
"You..."
*
It wasn't until much later that Xie Yi learned that Ming Lai's supernatural ability as a spirit allowed him to transmit his thoughts to every one of his clones, like a computer's terminals communicating with its mainframe.
So this half-ruined clone had already possessed Ming Lai's consciousness.
He'd been watching coldly the whole time!
Every private thing Xie Yi had said to him, every shameful thing he'd done...
Ming Lai changed his position and wrapped himself around Xie Yi's waist, his damp breath clinging to Xie Yi's ear as he bit it.
So,
this time, don't move.
Let. Me. Take. The. Lead.
Theme: "Every time I let my true feelings slip,
it was so you'd know I still love you."
Theme: People with different lives and allegiances can still accept, understand, and love one another.
It's really over. I thought the story had just begun. I just discovered the plot of the Hong Kong master and the vampire son didn't tease her too much (bushi, it's a bit rushed. I'm looking forward to the next book! Ps. I hope to wait until the extra chapter of this book is released to see other people's perspectives.
I think the writing is quite good. Whether it is hard knowledge, plot setting or writing style, it is all above the standard. One thing is that it is quite tiring to read. There are too many wrong sentences and typos. The brain needs to correct the mistakes while thinking about the plot. I hope the author can correct this later. The logic of the wrong sentences is a bit painful for people to string together. All in all, he is a very powerful author. I hope you will get better and better in the future.
I thought I was going to write a lot of short stories, but actually other worlds are quite interesting.
I feel that the author is young and writes seriously.
It's so confusing. It won't be a test in the end, right?
Does the heroine like Zhong Yue? Not necessarily
Those who show off their money will accept the benefits that are given to them with peace of mind. People like the heroine have nothing to do with showing off!
It feels like it ended so hastily.
I was scared to death. I thought it was the end when I saw the description at the end. Come on! Continue to update
Ah, the heroine has a mental breakdown.
