A Snake-Brained Love Diary

[The full story is being written before publication...]

Lots of everyday life, and I'm churning out the chapters.

Stuck around Chapter 120. I've been having a particularly hard time writing lately, maybe because I'm busy with other things. I'll try to finish it this year.

The plan is to finish the draft first, then revise it gradually.

A very slow-burn, meandering story.

The unserious blurb

How do two snake-fearing lunatics fall in love?

Fei Jingyu: "I'm afraid of snakes."

Wu Weihuo: "Me too."

Fei Jingyu: "But I'm a snake demon..." (reveals his true form)

Wu Weihuo: "Me too..." He took one look, then fell straight over, stiff as a board.

Lu Xunji: But I'm not afraid.

Wu Weihuo: He immediately got up, grabbed Lu Xunji by the throat, and shook him from side to side. In a sinister voice, he said, "You have to be afraid."

The serious blurb:

"A proper college student transmigrates into a female-lead harem novel because he can't keep his mouth shut, becoming a snake so arrogant that the world trembles at his name. No, no, no, could he be even more outrageous? You think that's simple? From the start, he's got one snake and all his gear is... bought on credit."

"Isn't that amazing? Isn't it exciting?" Fei Jingyu kicked the System that was introducing his situation. "Oh, get lost!"

Then he straightened the nonexistent bow tie on his chest, waved a handkerchief, and declared through tears of hardship, "Let me tell you, my struggle has been earth-shattering, enough to make the heavens tremble and the gods weep!"

"I entered a book for the sake of justice and became a snake. I even have to win over the female lead's harem. Do you know how incredibly difficult it is to win over a female lead's harem? But I'll never give up. First, I had a rough time in the snake den. Then I ran into the natural enemy, the Nine-Colored Divine Bird, outsmarted the Sky Wolf, and brought along a little white-eyed wolf to battle the Heaven-Swallowing Python for three days and nights. Then I rescued the female lead and fought the harem..." As he spoke, tears of excitement ran down his face.

"Oh, give it a rest," the System said, mercilessly exposing him. "As soon as you arrived, you scared yourself unconscious. I was the one who got you out of the cave. And that Nine-Colored Divine Bird and Sky Wolf? They were just a pheasant and a wolf. The wolf was half dead, too. As for rescuing anyone, you just wanted someone else to complete the mission for you. And that three-day battle? A snake chased you, and you ran for your life. As for the harem..."

Before it could finish, the System saw Fei Jingyu glaring at it. He kicked the System off the bed. "Oh, get lost, you ungrateful little brat!"

Just then, the male lead's angry shouting came from outside. "Where did that damn snake demon run off to now?! He even dared to steal my pumpkin, and he never learns. I ought to break his snake legs!"

The snake, who'd been acting all high and mighty a moment before, instantly hid in the wardrobe. He pulled a face and said, "Go deal with him for me!"

The System's mouth twitched. "He's not here. He went to steal watermelons."

The male lead exploded. "That damn rascal! Is he a melon-eating wild boar? He's eaten all the watermelons I planted!"

But the male lead quickly realized something was off. His wits intact, he rolled up his sleeves. "I remember, it's not even watermelon season right now."

That's right. There was no fighting over the harem. The harem was just fighting the snake. All the snake could do was drag along a burden, yell, and play the victim. He'd originally planned to have that burden seduce the female lead, but, much to his surprise, the eager little burden threw himself at him instead. Fei Jingyu slapped him hard, then swaggered away without a backward glance. "Oh, get lost!"

Does that sound unserious too? Scratches head.jpg. This story is also called Oh, Get Lost! I'll try to come up with a serious blurb. I swear!
