My next book, Black-Hearted Omega, Sweet and Charming, is open for follows. The blurb is below.
Meng Xiaoxing inherited her family's generations-old milk tea shop, and every few days, she would receive a pile of underworld banknotes.
Then all sorts of strange people started showing up.
A handsome, expressionless man dressed all in black came to her shop every evening to buy a cup of grass jelly tea.
A refined-looking national idol knocked on her shop door in the middle of the night, wearing a mask and asking for ginger milk curd.
A mysterious big shot from the scientific community kept calling her to order a cup of mango pomelo sago every day.
Meng Xiaoxing thought she was about to become famous, and that her milk tea shop would surely become a popular check-in spot.
Qin Yiwei: "Senior, stop fantasizing. They aren't human."
Meng Xiaoxing: "What do you mean?"
Qin Yiwei: "The man in black who comes to buy grass jelly tea every day is an underworld constable. The national idol is a messenger between the worlds of yin and yang. The scientific big shot only recently started working there. He's an informal underworld employee."
Meng Xiaoxing: "Then what about all those people who come to buy milk tea in the middle of the night?"
Qin Yiwei: "Oh, they're more ordinary. Just some plain old ghosts."
Meng Xiaoxing: "And you, junior?"
Qin Yiwei: "I'm nothing special, just a newly appointed trainee judge of the underworld. Pleased to meet you."
Meng Xiaoxing: "!!!"
How is anyone supposed to live like this?
Later...
National idol: "This milk tea shop is amazing. Buy from them!"
Scientific big shot: "I owe this award to the mango pomelo sago from Meng's Milk Tea Shop."
Underworld civil servants: "Thanks to Meng's Milk Tea, a whole range of underworld industries has flourished, generating more GDP. Our year-end bonuses are secure this year!"
From starting out twenty-seven thousand merit points in debt to the underworld, to owning countless businesses across both the living and spirit worlds, Meng Xiaoxing's life lesson was this:
Make milk tea, love milk tea, and pour your heart into every cup. Human or ghost, if I want them to be, they're all potential customers!
[I thought I was just an ordinary milk tea girl, but it turns out I'm an underworld civil servant selling Meng Po Soup!]
[You have to have dreams in life. Who knows, one day they might come true!]
Reading guide: A serious story with plenty of silliness.
Blurb for my next book, Black-Hearted Omega, Sweet and Charming:
Shi Yue and Lu Jue were the most compatible AO pairing, with a 100% match according to the Federation.
But on their wedding day, the bride ran away.
The livestream showed the groom's bachelor party before the wedding. Lu Jue had an arm around each of two women, and things were getting heated.
"Shi Yue? That frail, timid omega? If the Federation hadn't forced us together, I wouldn't even give her a second look."
His contemptuous words rang throughout the wedding venue. Lu Jue, a top-tier alpha, was humiliated and became a laughingstock across the Federation.
Just on the other side of the wall, Shi Yue leaned sweetly against Lu Jue's older brother, her body giving off a sweet pheromone scent.
The man's Adam's apple bobbed as he struggled to restrain himself.
"Betas can't be marked."
Shi Yue: "If you don't try, how will you know?"
A 3S-grade physique is both a constraint and an asset.
When Shi Yue decided to take revenge, she turned her attention to Lu Jue's older brother, Lu Jiayin, a C-grade beta.
On the day her heat came, she threw away her suppressants and stood before Lu Jiayin, putting everything on the line.
"Either take me with you, or leave on your own. Pick one."
The man's gaze was dark, his voice hoarse.
"Shi Yue, don't you dare regret this."
No one knew that Lu Jiayin, a beta, had been in love with Shi Yue for eight whole years.
The one extravagant wish he most wanted to say to her was, "Baby, I want to mark you."
Shi Yue: Whether we're compatible isn't something data can decide. We have to try it ourselves... Mmm!
[Practice is the only standard for testing the truth! (* ̄︶ ̄)]

Theme: Life takes many forms. Live toward the sun.
Well, to be honest, after watching this far, I think the female lead has some issues. Her grandmother tried to reveal her identity several times, but she interrupted her, saying she loved her grandmother, and then caused such a huge problem for the underworld, leaving her grandmother to clean up the mess.
I think this article has both advantages and disadvantages. Its advantage is that the writing is fluent. The drawbacks are: 1. The protagonist's character development is flawed. He claims to love his grandmother, yet he doesn't communicate with her. 2. I personally feel the protagonist exhibits unreasonable and low-IQ traits.
I... Haven't seen such an immature female lead in a long time. Although I know she will grow up in the future, it's still a bit boring to watch her with such an ordinary mentality in the early stages.
Why are all the comments saying the female lead is stupid? Honestly, suddenly taking on inexplicable responsibility, being scammed, and then having someone claim to be her savior is really off-putting. Who would be happy about that?
It's just baffling. Does everyone in the underworld have a serious illness? Why not just say it directly? Why all the secrecy and evasion? Offering to perform a psychic session without explaining why? Performing a psychic session doesn't mean you know everything. The female lead knew nothing; she's lucky she wasn't scared to death.
Let's leave the female lead aside. The grandmother also has issues. Since her granddaughter says she wants to inherit the milk tea shop, she should explain everything clearly. Such an important matter, without any explanation and just saying to follow the recipe, shows a lack of understanding. A normal person would naturally start thinking about how to make more money.
No, I'm speechless. The female lead clearly didn't know anything about this, she didn't even know she was some kind of successor, so how can you blame her? Any normal person just wants business to be good.
I don't care about Sister Li. Since you're the successor, why don't you just say so directly? Going around in circles is really frustrating.
The female lead is truly indescribable... I've stepped on a landmine.
The female lead is practically an idiot. And she's a college student? To put it bluntly, she's ungrateful.
