Blurb:
Shu Xin is a nobody of a minor celebrity, the kind who can only land bit parts in web dramas.
While filming on a mountain, he had a flash of inspiration and used a love-lock from the production crew to lock himself together with the God of Wealth.
Better to trust superstition than confidence, and better to burn incense than strive. How does that saying go? Right, sincerity makes wishes come true.
The next day, a cool and handsome new roommate moved into the shabby old apartment Shu Xin shared with others. Not only was he good-looking, his luck with money was incredible.
The roommate found money on the street, won the lottery, and even watched his investment funds soar.
Shu Xin fawned over him. "Hey, handsome, are you my lucky cat come to life?"
Zhao Shiran looked at the chipped lucky cat in the corner, which lit up and sang nursery rhymes, and his mouth twitched.
The Matchmaker was busy playing a puzzle game and accidentally tapped confirm on Shu Xin's love-lock request.
Staring at the God of Wealth across from him, who was stroking his white beard and playing chess with him, the Matchmaker stammered, unable to explain himself...
After hearing his friend's explanation, the God of Wealth and the Matchmaker both turned to look at the grandson who was about to take up his new post.
Zhao Shiran, who had merely been passing by: ? Why are you looking at me? :)
Naturally, the little God of Wealth was forced to descend to the mortal world and clean up the mess those two old men had made.
Shu Xin thought his birth chart must be the unluckiest of all. Maybe he really was fated to have no wealth, doomed to spend his life as an ordinary, overworked wage slave.
As an ordinary person, the only things Shu Xin had to look forward to were a nap after a busy day and the rosy promises in fortune-telling videos.
But Zhao Shiran's arrival seemed to bring a change of fortune. Shu Xin won a new product in a brand promotion, suddenly grew popular for a supporting role in an obscure drama, and landed a high-end endorsement out of nowhere...
Shu Xin suddenly felt like the future was bright!
One day, after work, the wage slave sprawled on the sofa and scrolled through videos. He came across a fortune-teller holding a banner and excitedly nudged his roommate. "This fortune-teller says I can trade ten years of being single for good luck with money!"
The God of Wealth furrowed his brow and leaned close, his voice low. "Who said that? I won't allow it."
A little face-slapping scene for the God of Wealth:
When Zhao Shiran first met Shu Xin, he was utterly exasperated. "Tsk. Foolish humans, always trying to take shortcuts by worshiping the God of Wealth instead of putting in any effort themselves."
Later, Shu Xin got so busy with work that he had no time for the little God of Wealth. Zhao Shiran tugged at his sweetheart's sleeve, looking aggrieved. "Don't focus only on working hard. It makes my existence seem so pointless TAT"
Shu Xin: "Sorry, I don't have time to comfort you right now qwq"
A Cyberpunk Guide to Worshiping the God of Wealth:
① A diligent, hardworking, devout money-lover and entertainment-industry wage slave, the recipient of affection × a genuine, otherworldly, tsundere future God of Wealth who is fiercely protective
② Older top, one-on-one, both virgins, possibly an age gap of several hundred years? Various original settings and content notes are in the author's note in Chapter One ovo
③ A short, sweet HE story, probably not too long
④ Forgive me, Your Excellency God of Wealth, and all the other gods or goddesses, forgive me orz
⑤ The idea of locking a love-lock with the God of Wealth came from the internet. (Does it work? I'll wait here for feedback...)
