[It's finally complete! Begging for a five-star review orz]

[Thanks for your support! My ongoing novel next door, Live Fortune-Telling Streams Make Me a Hit After I Marry into a Wealthy Family, and my upcoming novel, After the Cool, Aloof Bottom and the Silly Dog Top Get Married for Business, are both waiting for your collection~ The blurbs are at the very bottom~]

Qi Nian is transmigrated into a melodramatic novel as a spoiled, troublemaking side character staying with a wealthy family. Before long, his family notices that Qi Nian has stopped acting out and now spends every day obsessively following gossip.

At a party, Qi Nian is like a weed that’s wandered into a field of melons.

Whoever gives him trouble, he digs up their dirt.

[Tsk, tsk, tsk. That guy in white went to the hospital yesterday with an anal fissure...]

[And that guy in black, what a beast. His wife is a beard, and he doesn’t even know it? How tragic. So tragic.]

[Oh, and the one in red has even juicier stuff...]

Their faces turn pale. Please, stop talking!

People call this indiscriminate attack “Khan’s Grand Review of the Troops.” From then on, a saying spreads: Don’t mess with anyone, but especially don’t mess with Qi Nian!

Qi Nian, meanwhile, has no idea and happily keeps eating up gossip in his head every day.

[This uncle should have had a career that was really taking off, but unfortunately...]

A big shot in some industry: Unfortunately what? Hurry up and tell me! (Transfers 50,000,000)

[That celebrity sister is such a good person. Why would she risk her life just to have a child?]

A famous actress with heart disease: !!!

Not long after, the actress publicly expresses her gratitude: Thank you, my benefactor @Qi Nian

[Should I warn the professor that the son-in-law he picked is going to poison his daughter?]

Soon afterward, the professor finds a toxic chemical in his daughter’s water cup.

The professor tearfully grabs Qi Nian’s hand. “From now on, you’re my godson!”

Qi Nian: “???”

Wherever Qi Nian isn’t, stories about him are everywhere.

They say Qi Nian can help people escape bad luck and see through the wicked...

So Qi Nian wakes up one day to find big shots coming to him one after another, clutching money. Are they here so he can... eat their gossip?

Later, Qi Nian’s cheeks are puffed out as he chews his food, thinking angrily: [So annoying! Just because you have money, you think you can look down on people? Hmph!]

His big brother, Chu Rongshi, finds out that Qi Nian went to a rich second-generation’s store to buy clothes and was mocked by him.

That very afternoon, Qi Nian is taken back to the store by his big brother. In front of the rich second-generation, Rongshi’s expression is calm, but he can’t hide how protective he is of Qi Nian. “You like this store? Good. It’s yours now.”

Bonus scene: Later, Qi Nian’s name pops up everywhere.

[At a young woman’s blind date], she’s determined to find the perfect live-in son-in-law!

[At a big shot’s new product launch], the big shot says he only feels at ease when Qi Nian is there!

[From the mouth of a top entertainment-industry paparazzi agency’s founder], the founder says through tears, “Without Qi Nian, I wouldn’t be where I am today!”

Qi Nian, the socially anxious one: I really want to keep a low profile, but my abilities won’t let me! (Tears)

[Important]: 1. The big brother is the top.

2. The top and bottom are not related by blood, and everyone knows it.

3. The bottom is staying with the top’s family, so they aren’t registered in the same household.

Blurb for the ongoing novel Live Fortune-Telling Streams Make Me a Hit After I Marry into a Wealthy Family:

Jiang Yiqing inherits a temple, but... the temple is dilapidated and needs repairs, and it has no worshippers, so he needs to attract some.

With no other choice, he starts streaming.

Only the content of his streams is a little unusual: he tells fortunes.

At first, everyone treats this livestream that came out of nowhere as a bit of entertainment.

Until...

A top donor on the platform shows up to provoke him. Jiang Yiqing is shocked. “So the serial killer from Huangshan Town twenty-six years ago is livestreaming now? And you’ve come to me for a fortune reading? You’ve got some nerve.”

That same day, the police issue an announcement and present Jiang Yiqing with a banner of appreciation.

A woman has been unable to get pregnant for years and is desperate enough to try anything. Jiang Yiqing makes a quick calculation. “Sister, all I can say is there’s nothing wrong with you. Did your husband suggest adopting a child? That child is his with his mistress. Run!”

Everyone: Wait, there’s nothing wrong with her, so her husband’s the problem... Tsk, that’s a lot to take in!

The comments section changes its tune, too...

“The streamer sang his heart out yesterday, and I slept like a log. My mom almost thought I was dead...”

“Thanks to the streamer for saving my life!”

“...”

Since he has a partnership with the Underworld and thinks they’re inefficient, Jiang Yiqing also finds time amid his busy schedule to help the Underworld develop its technology.

“Holy crap, I was born with yin-yang eyes, and I watched my grandma, who’d just passed away, scrolling through nearby ghosts on her phone and thanking Master Jiang. The Underworld even has a ghost social network now. I was holding back tears, and you did that, streamer?!”

“My grandpa came to me in a dream and asked for Master Jiang’s autograph. He said it’s a hot commodity in the Underworld...”

A big shot becomes Jiang Yiqing’s top donor and has to listen to Jiang Yiqing’s tone-deaf singing every day.

Later, the big shot starts looking at him differently.

Jiang Yiqing: “...”

Seriously, you can hear romance in a voice like mine? You have such unusual taste.

But when I look at that face of his... well, I guess it’s not impossible!

It’s just that he seems not to be human...

Bonus scene:

One day, Wen Xiuyan comes home from work and discovers that Jiang Yiqing has set up a portal in the house.

A line of ghosts is waiting in turn, while Jiang Yiqing sits beside them with his legs crossed, speaking leisurely. “One at a time, okay? I don’t take ghost money.”

“Want to reincarnate sooner? Register with me. Work in the Underworld for a hundred years and you’ll get access to the VIP lane.”

Wasn’t he supposed to get a million worshippers? Why wouldn’t ghosts count?

Blurb for upcoming novel 2, After the Cool, Aloof Bottom and the Silly Dog Top Get Married for Business:

Chu Yuecheng learns from his father that he has to honor the marriage contract his grandfather arranged. Furious, he tries to fight back, but fails, and storms out.

On the way, he runs into a deaf-mute begging on the street. Chu Yuecheng didn’t bring his wallet, and after searching all his pockets, he can only find a few hundred yuan.

Just as he’s about to put the money into the beggar’s broken bowl, looking apologetic, a slender, beautiful hand offers a twenty-yuan bill. A voice as pleasant as jade striking jade follows: “Hello, should I put the money in the bowl?”

Chu Yuecheng nods without thinking. The beggar... who is also deaf-mute, nods along with him.

Chu Yuecheng is completely bewildered. By the time he comes to his senses, the hand has already taken back the money. He turns around at once and sees a cool, handsome young man looking down as he puts the money into his bag.

Chu Yuecheng stands there dumbfounded, his face gradually turning red.

Ever since meeting Qi Muyi, Chu Yuecheng spends his days shamelessly chasing after him, while firmly telling his father that he will never accept this feudal arranged marriage.

At last, Chu’s father gives in and says they can break off the engagement, but Chu Yuecheng has to go in person and apologize.

Chu Yuecheng agrees. As long as he can end the engagement, he’ll do whatever it takes.

He arrives at the agreed-upon place in high spirits, only to see Qi Muyi. The other man’s cool, handsome face is still expressionless. “I already know. It was only a verbal agreement, so there’s no need to take it seriously.”

Chu Yuecheng: “...” Is it too late to change my mind?

After they get married, Chu Yuecheng is constantly taken advantage of because of his overflowing sympathy, so Qi Muyi takes all his money to keep it safe and gives him five hundred yuan a month.

Five hundred yuan isn’t even enough for one meal for Young Master Chu.

But he doesn’t dare say a thing...

His rowdy friends give him advice. “Want more pocket money? Easy. Threaten to divorce him...”

Before they can finish, Chu Yuecheng gets furious. “What do you mean, divorce? My wife is so wonderful. Why would I divorce him? Are you jealous that I have such a good wife and trying to take advantage of the situation?”

His rowdy friends: “...”

“Come on, it’s just a threat. It’ll make him feel like he might lose you. Don’t you want him to love you more?”

Chu Yuecheng is shamefully tempted by that last part.

But things don’t go quite the way he imagined...

Qi Muyi: “Divorce? Sure. Should your lawyer draw up the agreement, or should I?”

Qi Muyi’s beautiful fingers quickly type a few lines on the keyboard. “I’ll do it. It’ll be quick.”

Chu Yuecheng is so angry he bursts into tears.

That night, Chu Yuecheng sobs, “You really want to divorce me? Tell me, do you love me or not?”

A faint blush spreads across Qi Muyi’s cool, aloof face. Embarrassed and annoyed, he says, “Shut... up!”

Theme: Don’t put yourself down. Everyone deserves to be loved.
