I Picked Up a Dragon Hatchling and Reached the Pinnacle of Life

[Story Complete]

Bai Musheng was reborn.

His father was murdered, his mother was forcibly taken, and he was supposed to have been lost before birth according to the script his stepfather had written for him.

But the nurse assigned to deal with him couldn't bear to go through with it and sent him to Yangcheng, tens of thousands of miles away.

He had no desire to be a stepson in a wealthy family, never knowing if he'd see the next day, so he kept his secret identity hidden and stayed away from his wealthy stepfather's company, Alik.

But life is full of unexpected twists.

One scoop from an excavator not only broke the seal on the underworld, but also destroyed his peaceful life.

He did find the dragon of his dreams, but at the same time, Alik, evil spirits, and the Special Incident Management Department all set their sights on him.

Alik: This kid knows too much. Kill him.

Evil spirits: This kid would be a great tonic. Kill him.

Special Incident Management Department: Put him to use if he's useful. If not, send him to the research institute for disposal.

His life went from hard mode straight to inferno mode. Luckily, his little dragon cub was affectionate, adorable, clingy, and comforting, so things were at least somewhat bearable.

Then one day, he woke up to find the dragon cub gone.

In its place stood a man with antlers, as handsome as a celestial deity and as cool and aloof as one.

He said, "Eradicating evil spirits and stabilizing the underworld is your destined task. From now on, you'll get up at dawn and cultivate with me."

Bai Musheng had been admiring his good looks a moment ago. The next moment, he clutched at him like a drowning man grasping a lifeline and asked with trembling hands, "Will you teach me yourself? Can I get up a little later? And... can I still cuddle the dragon cub?"

[Devoted Love Interest Version]

Meng Zhang, the Azure Dragon Divine Lord, had been born without emotions and had never imagined that one day he would fall for a mere mortal boy.

But it happened all the same, like a red thread of fate that shouldn't have existed.

The lonely traveler had found a place to call home.

Once he realized his feelings, he began to spoil Bai Musheng without restraint.

-- Bai Musheng liked him as a cub, so he would stay in that form as much as possible, and the old rules no longer applied.

-- Bai Musheng liked the feeling of flying, so he would carry him to the highest heavens.

-- Bai Musheng liked sleeping in, so he would clear away every obstacle in his path.

The ghosts mocked him. "The great Divine Lord Meng Zhang has become a human's lapdog."

He replied, "What would you know? The person I submit to is named Bai Musheng."

-

1) Spiritual qi revival and the paranormal. The story and romance are roughly a 60/40 split. Sweet, doting romance!

2) A well-behaved sleepyhead in public, but a desperate dragon lover in private X a seemingly chaste dragon ancestor who is actually a love-struck wife-spoiler

3) Both leads are each other's only partners. Lots of personal worldbuilding.

4) Updates usually come before 9:30 p.m. If anything comes up, I'll post a leave notice or announce it in advance.

5) Contains paranormal elements, but I write at night, so I don't think it'll be too scary for me to handle.

Please add my next novel, "Trapped in a World of Cliches: Now It's a Love Triangle," to your reading list!

Cheng Xi, a max-level healer, transmigrates into a world of cliche fiction and gets stuck with a useless System called "Do One Good Deed a Day."

The System threatens his life and orders Cheng Xi to take the role of an insignificant passerby, helping one character get a better ending every day.

So,

when the protagonist of "[Showbiz] The Sickly Lover Runs Away While Pregnant" goes into difficult labor, Cheng Xi helps with the delivery and takes tender care of him. Before he knows it, he has become someone the baby loves far more than its own father.

When the villainous love interest in "The Redemption of a Yandere Villain" mistakes him for someone trying to seduce him, Cheng Xi still puts the past behind them and heals his legs. He ends up with a well-paid family doctor position and a comfortable life.

When the protagonist of "After Faking My Death, the Villain's Love Interest Regrets It" tries to jump off a cliff and fake his death, Cheng Xi catches him and offers him a worry-free fake-death service, somehow becoming the person who saves him.

He comforts a villainous fake young master whose face was disfigured in an accident and helps restore his looks, accidentally becoming the fake young master's beloved older brother.

He also helps the protagonist of a dog-blood novel escape harassment for good, becoming the number-one marriage candidate in the eyes of a warmhearted older brother.

In just six months, Cheng Xi went from being the most hated legitimate son to a beloved little miracle doctor.

Every day, his godson wakes him up, his younger and older brothers take turns feeding him, and his confidants keep him company. His life is like heaven.

Gu Wenjing became famous at a young age, but was cruelly set up by the Chen family and left with no choice but to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair. From then on, he became obsessive, gloomy, and volatile.

Once he had built up his power, the Chen family went bankrupt overnight, and the head of the family took it upon himself to send the legitimate son into Gu Wenjing's home.

That time, Gu Wenjing couldn't bring himself to push away the young man's hand reaching for his injured legs. After that, he could only resort to every means at his disposal to get Cheng Xi's attention.

But there were too many admirers swarming around his little fiance. He could only take drastic measures and force his way into becoming Cheng Xi's legal husband.

*

One day, a supposed father showed up with proof of their relationship and informed Cheng Xi that he was already married.

Cheng Xi: ?!! Am I not just a passerby?

The protagonist himself hadn't even recovered from the shock, but all his sweet younger and older brothers were already losing their composure.

His godson, still a little kid, clutched his milk candy tightly. "No one's taking my daddy away."

His confidant's smile vanished. "A-Xi, let's elope."

His considerate younger brother looked ready to cry. "Big Brother, didn't you promise to wait until I grew up?"

His warmhearted older brother went pale. "Xiao Xi, your brother respects your choice."

Gu Wenjing pretended to stagger weakly and hung his head like a child who had done something wrong. "I'm sorry, Xi Xi. I just wanted you to fall completely in love with me before I told you."

The kid / confidant / considerate younger brother / warmhearted older brother: So businessmen really are all awful!

System: Warning! Host, you must continue to maintain your identity as a passerby in every novel except "The Redemption of a Yandere Villain," or you will be eliminated.

P.S.:

The love interest deliberately pretends to be sick every few days. He's perfectly healthy.

After the protagonist is taken away by his mother, he changes his surname.

The supposed father will end up in prison.

Theme: Live diligently and never stop striving.
