My Frail Colleague Is Actually Everyone's Favorite

The book next door, "After the Substitute Ugly Omega Faked His Death", has just started publishing. If you like sweet-and-sour romance where the pursuer has to win back their love, come check it out!

What Luo Baiyu can't stand most is his colleague, who gets out of breath after taking a few steps. They are both aides to the Third Prince, but he can't understand why all the rumors about him are like this:

"Which kid did General Luo scare to tears today?"

"Has General Luo left the capital?"

While all the rumors about his sickly colleague are like this:

"Did Chancellor Bai give a speech at the academy today?"

"Where will Chancellor Bai pass by today? I'll go see if I can run into him."

His friends are always bringing him the latest gossip, too:

"I heard the Third Prince is very fond of Bai Jingwen. He even took him to the palace to meet the consort."

"How shallow. He's obviously trying to cultivate him."

"I heard the Right Chancellor invited Chancellor Bai to his home for dinner and gave him lots of gifts."

"How shallow. He clearly wants to win one of our people over."

"I heard your deputy general secretly hid along the road Bai Jingwen takes, just to catch a glimpse of him?"

"How shallow. He was obviously doing it for me. He knows I hate Bai Jingwen, so he only wanted to see what the person I despise looks like."

Later, Luo Baiyu watched Left Chancellor Bai Jingwen hold his own against a whole court of scholars. He changed his tune:

"I heard Bai Jingwen stole your spotlight in court today?"

"How shallow. I let him."

A sharp-tongued but soft-hearted, sunny and strapping golden-retriever seme x a sickly, wildly popular, vindictive uke

The author is a newbie, and has a soft spot for ukes with a whole bunch of secret identities. The love and hate are turned all the way up.

Sorry, I still really like plots involving being drugged. It's definitely not because this is the only way for the seme and uke to cross paths OBO

The blurb is from the seme's perspective; the novel is from the uke's perspective.

Completed novel: He Doesn't Care That Everyone Hates Him

Historical fantasy novel coming soon: "The Venerable Master's Dao Companion Is a Little Drama Queen"

Lin Yujing is famous throughout the immortal realm for being a drama queen. Many people say he ought to change his name to Lin Yunaoke, since he never lets the Immortal Venerable have a moment's peace.

He won't eat the meals the Immortal Venerable worked so hard to cook. He doesn't want the Immortal Venerable to restore his bones and meridians. And once, when the Immortal Venerable was angry and needed comforting, Lin Yujing tried to soothe him twice before getting impatient and saying, "Then I'll go jump off a cliff. I'll just die."

An immortal maiden once remarked that if Lin Yujing weren't the Immortal Venerable's tribulation of love in the mortal realm, someone like him could never become the cold and ruthless Immortal Venerable's Dao companion.

Lin Yujing replied, "How about I give you that blessing instead?"

Compared to this ridiculous romance, he'd much rather have the whole family live happily together.

*

In the mortal realm, Lin Yujing is the little prince most doted on by his father, mother, and older brothers. One day, while playing in the outskirts of the city, he finds a man lying in the snow. He originally meant to do a kind deed, but the man is so handsome that he can't help himself, and makes him his personal bodyguard.

But soon, a palace coup takes place, and the man changes, too...

It turns out there are more than just ordinary people in this world.

1. There's a mild win-back arc.

2. There's a lot of melodrama.

3. In the mortal realm, the uke is timid and submissive. After reaching the upper realm, he looks down on people with his nostrils!

4. A sharp-tongued, shameless seme x a uke who refuses to indulge his lover's lazy, give-up attitude.

If something bothers you, speak up!

Theme: There will come a time to ride the wind and cleave the waves.
