After Qi Zhaonian's terminal illness reached its final stage, he chose to stop treatment.
All he wanted was to return to the small village where he grew up and quietly walk the last stretch of his life.
The pain was unbearable, and he accidentally fell into the White Sand River at the village entrance.
As his consciousness faded, a pair of hands lifted him above the water. The person had snow-white hair and cool, striking features.
"If you're going to die, don't die in my river."
Qi Zhaonian drew a breath through the pain, but still managed a forced smile. "Then... should I thank you, River God, for saving my life?"
Ao Jue lowered his eyes, his gaze indifferent. "Do three things for me, and we'll call it even."
After hearing the three tasks, Qi Zhaonian fell silent for a long while. Then he looked up at this banished dragon prince and joked:
"My lord, isn't asking me to find you a wife a bit too much?"
"What about me?"
Ao Jue gave his frail, pale body a cool glance.
"You?"
"I'm afraid you couldn't take it."
This novel is also known as "The Frail Human's Dragon-Taming Diary" and "About the River God I Picked Up Insisting I Find Him a Partner."
The next book will be "Snatching a Little Octopus." Please add it to your favorites and show it lots of support. Here's the blurb:
After awakening inside an apocalyptic novel, Jiang Yu learned that he was destined to be the villain who made the protagonist's glorious righteousness shine all the brighter.
Knowing what the future held, he understood the consequences of opposing the protagonist and decided to do his best to make amends and repair his image!
He had deceived and brutally beaten the protagonist gong, while he had tried to flirt with the protagonist shou, failed, and then kicked him out of the team to feed the zombies.
Jiang Yu put on a performance at two hundred percent, clasped the protagonist gong's hand, and pleaded with tears streaming down his face: "As long as you can forgive me, I'll do anything..."
A heavy, shadowed gaze fell on the hands gripping him tightly. His Adam's apple shifted as he gave a cold sneer. "Shameless. Disgusting!"
Jiang Yu: ?
Facing the protagonist shou, beautiful as a girl and frail as a dying flower, he took painstaking care of him, not even begrudging the precious medicine. The moment the man opened his eyes, Jiang Yu pretended not to care. "I don't want anything in return. I only ask you to forgive me."
But the frail beauty gave a soft laugh, his icy fingers brushing Jiang Yu's neck:
"But weren't you the one who pushed me into a horde of zombies in the first place?"
Jiang Yu: "..." This isn't how the story is supposed to go!
With no other choice, he decided to take a desperate gamble:
He would get ahead of the original story and bind himself to its most powerful being: the top-tier mutated octopus in the deep sea, a creature of extraordinary intelligence that controlled everything.
He thought that from then on, he'd have the greatest backing in the apocalypse.
That was until the "octopus" wrapped him in its tentacles, transformed into a peerlessly handsome human form, and whispered in his ear:
"Cold?"
Feeling the icy tentacles wandering around his waist, Jiang Yu maintained a stiff smile.
"If you could get off me first, I might warm up a little."
So much for being vicious and bloodthirsty#
This backer seems a little off#
Protagonists, don't come over here. My guy gets really jealous#
[Reading Guide]
1. One-on-one romance, happy ending, a sweet and satisfying apocalypse story
2. An adorable at first, gloomy and possessive, inhuman gong later x a shou who's always on the verge of blowing his cover
3. The protagonist isn't a good guy in the traditional sense, so read with caution if that bothers you
Theme: Cherish life
After being convinced, I clicked the saved manuscript to be published. This is for tomorrow! Who knows the feeling of powerlessness that has been brewing for a long time and turns out to be a man in seconds [Joker]
