After graduating from college, Yu Zhuzhu receives a job offer one day from a company called Heavenly Entertainment. Unable to find work anywhere else, she goes in to report for duty.
To her surprise, she discovers that:
The company's six major shareholders are all ancient gods on the level of creation deities.
The company's acclaimed best actor is a qilin, and its best actress is Yao Ji.
Its top-tier star singer is a nine-tailed celestial fox...
And the celebrities aren't the only gods around. The Department of Fate's Star Lord, Bai Ze, Feng Bo, Yu Shi... even the support staff are full of deities.
Nezha: "Which internet troll says I don't understand Nezha and can't capture his essence?!"
Yang Jian: "You think I did a bad job playing myself?"
Yu Zhuzhu: "..."
You are the real deal, great gods. What you say goes.
And she's the only human in the company!
Under a contract with the Heavenly Dao, Yu Zhuzhu becomes the assistant to Yinglong Gengchen and the manager of the gods.
Bai Ze, head of Human Resources: "Yu Zhuzhu, I have an important mission for you!"
Yu Zhuzhu: "What...?"
Bai Ze: "Wake up one of our six major shareholders, Yinglong Gengchen, and remind him to submit his manuscript!"
Yu Zhuzhu tries every trick in the book to wake the sleeping Yinglong, but fails.
Yu Zhuzhu: "..."
The gods: "There's nothing we can do either..."
Yu Zhuzhu: "How about I sing him a song?"
Gengchen wakes up instantly to her horribly off-key singing, and the gods burst into tears of joy!
Gengchen: "Record a song for me to use as an alarm. It's very effective."
Yu Zhuzhu: "..."
Couple: Yu Zhuzhu × Gengchen, one-on-one romance, happy ending
(A sunny, cute heroine who's open-minded, slow to catch on, and a little clever × a gentle, laid-back Yinglong hero who likes writing romance novels)
Reading guide:
1. The romance develops slowly, but it's sweet!
2. A lighthearted, hilarious, satisfying story about gods descending to the mortal realm, half showbiz, half mythology, and half an alternate world. The plot is exaggerated and the heroine has a powerful golden finger. It's all about having fun, so read at your own discretion.
3. Many details are based on myths the author likes, and may differ from professional interpretations. Sixty percent is the author's invention, so please don't take it too seriously.
Blurb for Heart of Wood and Stone
As the Sword Ancestor Qing Cen of the Linghuan Sword Sect ascends to immortality, he brings back a little girl with an "Immortal Spirit Heart" from outside the sect. Breaking his vow never to take another disciple, he names her Cen Shige. After her master and senior brothers ascend or pass away, Cen Shige becomes the most senior junior ancestor of the sect.
Mo Qiyuan, one of the four great demonic leaders, launches a massive attack on the Linghuan Sword Sect to obtain the Immortal Spirit Heart.
Cen Shige: "I'll trade my heart for the lives of everyone else."
Mo Qiyuan: "I accept your heart."
After Cen Shige loses her heart, the entire sect does everything in its power to save her. They pour countless resources and favors into crafting a magical heart from rare treasures, allowing her to cling to life.
But without a normal heart, Cen Shige's emotions are more muted than those of ordinary people. Unless she acknowledges someone, it's almost impossible for them to warm her heart of wood and stone.
Cen Shige: "I don't even have a heart anymore. How am I supposed to give it to you?"
After obtaining the Immortal Spirit Heart, Mo Qiyuan masters his demonic arts. Using iron-fisted methods, he unifies the scattered demonic cultivators, claims territory in the cultivation world, and proclaims himself the Demon Venerable.
The Heavenly Demon appears, threatening to destroy the entire cultivation world. The other demonic cultivators all advocate joining forces with the immortal cultivators to fight it.
But while Mo Qiyuan is helping seal the Heavenly Demon's core fragments, someone ambushes him. He falls into the Demon-Sealing Abyss and dies.
Having left himself a contingency plan, Mo Qiyuan awakens to find that his soul has been reborn in the body of a destitute young man whose meridians are all severed. But the person standing before him is Cen Shige!
Yun Youhe: "Master, why not take him on as a servant disciple?"
Shen Chunqian: "A single spiritual root? What a pity his meridians are smashed to pieces."
Cen Shige: "No matter. What's your name?"
Mo Qiyuan: "Mo... Mo Yuan."
Reading guide:
1. Contains original worldbuilding. A long, slow-burn novel with a blurb that barely scratches the surface. It leans a little toward an ensemble cast. The heroine handles the plot, the hero handles the romance, and the story has dual perspectives.
2. The heroine is decisive and ruthless, the coolest of them all, and holds a very senior position in the sect.
3. The hero's identity is revealed later. There is a groveling arc, and the hero suffers overall, but it has a happy ending.
4. The heroine's two disciples are a secondary couple.
Theme: Strive for a better tomorrow!
The characters are so vivid, but the sleepy Ying Long is very considerate. Unexpectedly, he is the editor of Ba Zong's story. The childish Nezha is also so cute. He has the trouble of being blackmailed by the trolls. He wants to fight but is stopped. He pouts in frustration and mumbles with smoke coming from his head. The scene is very graphic, and the texture of the clouds captured my imagination. The foreshadowing of the dream story makes me look forward to it~
"Wu" is a big thorn in the side of the author~
The next book is "The Heart of Wood and Stone", a novel about strong female immortals. It has been published and will be updated daily!! Welcome to collect~ Plans for next year's articles: a fairy tale about a group of heroes, "The Demon Has Love", and a holographic e-sports article about a strong woman, "The Devil Shows There's No One Who Can Fight", which can be found in the column. Interested Baozi is welcome to collect them!
Therefore, Zhuzhu was the girl in her previous life, and Yinglong was the boy.
"The most important person is back" does this refer to Zhuzhu?
I really want Zhinu's ability...
