After the Tyrant Used and Discarded Me, I Returned to the Interstellar World to Face-Slap on Livestream

[This should be a short story too. This is only the first draft of the blurb, and it will be revised.]

Jiang Wenxuan and He Fuzhi had been childhood friends, lovers who had shared both hardship and joy, and understood each other's hearts.

Before He Fuzhi became emperor, he was everything to Jiang Wenxuan.

They had met when they were young and unknown. Jiang had seen He Fuzhi utterly despondent, with all his grand ambitions bottled up inside. He had also seen the tenderness in He Fuzhi's eyes when they were together, and heard him murmur Jiang's name in his sleep.

They had once ridden into battle side by side, defending their homeland. When rebels surrounded them, He Fuzhi had fought with everything he had to help Jiang escape.

But good times never last.

People always change.

On the day He Fuzhi ascended the throne, everything Jiang had was ruined because of him. Jiang's family was confiscated, his authority stripped away, and he was left in the harem to watch He Fuzhi take one new consort after another.

Just as Jiang Wenxuan thought he would be trapped in the harem for the rest of his life, with no chance to rise again, the System came to him with a promise: if he agreed to livestream, he could go home.

Without looking back, he ran up the tall wall. That night, the wind howled atop the city tower, nearly lifting him into the air. Under He Fuzhi's bloodshot gaze, Jiang leaped from the wall and returned to the modern world without pain.

Not long after Jiang Wenxuan died, mysterious blue screens appeared across the land. On them, he came back to life, revealing the enigmatic civilization of the stars to everyone.

Countless planets stretching across the boundless universe.

Interstellar travel at the speed of light.

An uncountable number of alien life forms.

Brilliant, fantastical virtual reality games.

Beneath the Singing Tower on Dalem Star, Jiang Wenxuan kissed his new boyfriend in the crowd. Outside the screen, the new emperor watched, eyes red and teeth clenched, helpless to do anything.
