Cook for Me, Will You? [Infinite]

A sweet, pure-hearted campus heartthrob with a slightly goofy, playful side x a slightly perverted nonhuman male lead

The story is complete. Thank you for reading. Next up: "Falling in Love at First Sight with a Portrait at a Funeral." Here's the blurb for this story.

After leaving a bad review for a bowl of river snail rice noodles, Cheng Jian's phone mysteriously had a cooking app installed on it. Then he was dragged into a world of monsters. Customer service told him he had to identify the monster and cook a dish that satisfied it before he could leave.

Cheng Jian: But I can't cook.

Customer service: That's okay, dear~

?

Later, Cheng Jian realized that the longer he stayed there, the more his body turned into an ingredient. He licked his own sweet, pineapple-flavored blood and finally understood what customer service meant:

Ingredients don't need to know how to cook. The chef just needs to know how.

Later, as Cheng Jian gradually found his feet in the monster world, he also found himself a handsome boyfriend who looked too inhuman to be real. Cheng Jian used the address his boyfriend had given him to track him down in the real world and meet in person:

Roommate: Fourth, did you meet him?

Cheng Jian: You could say that...

Roommate: Oh, is he as handsome as his photo? No letdown?

Cheng Jian: ...

In the dim light of his phone, the man's photo on the gravestone was so devastatingly handsome he looked like a sea demon enchanting the soul. After a long silence, Cheng Jian said, "He's handsome. He didn't vanish in the daylight. I just need to change our relationship status from online dating."

Roommate: What, to an IRL relationship?

Cheng Jian: To widower.

[Male lead's perspective]

Monsters can be invited to other monsters' worlds as "chefs."

Every night, after the other man fell asleep, Wen Su would gaze intently at his "boyfriend." This was the little gift the diner had given him after inviting him over. So sweet. So fragrant.

The longer he looked, the more he wanted to try a different way of eating him.

*

So the monster disguised himself as an intruder and became Cheng Jian's teammate. The first time he confessed, Cheng Jian rejected him and told him he liked someone else.

Wen, smiling on the outside and cursing inside, Su: Can you tell me who it is?

Cheng Jian: He's the monster I met in my first world. His name is Ye Yunqi. I might never see him again, but I still like him, so I can't accept you.

Wen, who had already discarded his Ye Yunqi secret identity and was green with jealousy, Su: ...

That night, Wen Su posted on a human forum: What do you do when the person you like can't get over their first love and rejects you?

Oh, right. I'm that first love, too.

*

After they got together:

His boyfriend looked sweet and fragile. Wen Su reminded himself to keep his appetite under control so he wouldn't scare him.

Until one day, the other man held out a hand and said, "Are you really hungry? Why don't you bite me? The recipe says I'm a ripe pineapple this time. I should be super sweet."

He couldn't resist licking him once. Confirmed: really sweet.

Then his boyfriend said in a hollow voice, "Lick all you want, but could you please pull the tentacle off my butt?"

The shou is neither a completely useless pretty face nor an overpowered expert from the start. He's just an "ordinary" handsome college student (not really).

One-on-one romance, both fall for each other, but one of them takes it a little too far.

There's not much else to add. I'll fill this in when I think of something.

If the previous chapter shows as updated, it's usually just me fixing typos and things. Those who've read it already don't need to worry!

I'm writing this one next. If you're interested, please add it to your collection. XOXO.

"Falling in Love at First Sight with a Portrait at a Funeral"

A boy recently arrived at the Shen household. He's supposedly a distant relative from the mountains who doesn't even know how to use a water heater.

The fake-young-master-versus-real-young-master trope always draws an audience. Rumors quickly spread throughout H City, and everyone in high society waited to see the Shen family make a spectacle of themselves. But as they waited, something began to feel off. Ye Yuchi wasn't some country bumpkin. He was a diamond doll, as if carved from gold and jade.

*

Ye Yuchi was the youngest genius disciple of Wushan. After leaving the mountain, he was unexpectedly found by his biological father and brought home.

Parents: Xiao Chi, Huaixing is in poor health. Please be considerate of him. We need you to put up with this arrangement for a while.

As soon as they finished speaking, Ye Yuchi coughed blood onto a tissue.

Parents: ...

Ye Yuchi had never had to put up with anything in his life. He had planned to pack up and leave, but the next day, he went with his adoptive father to a funeral and stopped in his tracks.

Whether his father and mother were good parents didn't matter. He mainly wanted to find someone.

Ye Yuchi looked at the black-and-white portrait in the hall and said to his friend, "A-Heng, I think I like someone."

A-Heng: ?

A-Heng: "That was quick... Who?"

Ye Yuchi: "The one in the photo."

A-Heng: "...There's only one photo here. He's in the coffin."

Ye Yuchi: "That's him. Let's summon his spirit tonight."

That night, Lu Shen's body disappeared without a trace.

The office of the Special Investigations Bureau's director next door:

Huo Qi: My junior disappeared after sending me a text saying he'd come to stay with me. Should I go next door and report him missing?

Lu Shen lay unconscious in the hospital for a month. At last, amid a chorus of beeping machines, his consciousness plunged into darkness. When he woke again, he found himself attached to his phone, with his own cold corpse beside him and a pretty young man in front of him muttering incantations and performing a ritual over his coffin.

?

Then he saw a message sent not long ago by the online friend he'd known for years:

[Bu Chi]: I have a boyfriend! Let's put meeting up in person on hold!

Later, he messaged his online friend: I have a friend who died recently, and now someone has fallen in love with his corpse at first sight and stolen it. Is that person a pervert?

But when Lu Shen finally fell for him, the little pervert turned around and smiled brightly at another man. He heard him talking to thin air: A-Heng, I hereby announce that I've moved on. The new transfer student is so handsome!

??

That night, Lu Shen was so furious he came back to life. After digging himself out of the ground, he rushed over to the Shen household and showed up at their door.

"Could you please not..."

"Not what?"

"Don't move on to someone else."

A straightforward, headstrong, powerful shou x an initially dead-on-arrival gong who is only second-best at being stubborn from head to toe (stubborn, but with a long reach)

One-on-one romance, happy ending.

A supernatural story with my own take on occultism, ghosts, and monsters. The setting has a few minor original touches. Although it includes the fake-young-master trope, it's mainly about supernatural and occult matters. Oh, and it shouldn't be scary.

The shou is powerful, has a major golden finger, and is something of a group favorite.

Theme: Don't waste food
