Liu Chiti was once a little immortal formed from a red thread in the hands of the Matchmaker. From birth, he could see the threads of fate tied to people, and he happily spent his days watching the drama unfold.
But at the Peach Banquet, he got drunk and accidentally exposed the affair between the Star Lord of the Mao Day and the Star Lord of the Bi Moon. The two were so embarrassed and angry that they wanted revenge.
To help Liu Chiti avoid punishment, the Matchmaker used an investigation into the tangled red threads of the mortal world as an excuse to send him down to Earth and out of harm's way.
Who could have guessed that the little immortal would be hit by a cultural shock as soon as he arrived in the human world?
He transmigrates into the body of an assistant, right in the middle of a celebrity luring fans! The top-tier star has 28 red threads tied to him, yet hugs a fan and says, "You're the only one for me."
Liu Chiti is stunned. People get this wild?
Just as the star is about to close the door, Liu Chiti bravely steps forward and exposes him. The star gets slapped, and Liu Chiti promptly loses his job.
Forced by circumstances, he decides to start a livestream reading people's romantic fortunes.
And so he gets to witness:
[A chaotic love triangle between three people, all bound to one another by red threads]
[A beautiful narcissist whose family keeps pressuring her to marry, only for her to discover her red thread is tied to herself]
[Top-tier star couples who seem "lovey-dovey" but each have a red thread tied to someone else]
[A workaholic woman who works around the clock, with her red thread tied to her company's logo]
[A shut-in whose red thread is tied to their online love interest, only for the person on the other end to turn out to be a hulking man]
[A biologist with red threads scattered across an entire forest]
A fan comments: Come to this livestream for the most explosive gossip, the hardest celebrity downfalls, and the deepest emotional moments.
The celebrities whose reputations are in shambles rage and try to get Liu Chiti's livestream shut down, but no amount of pressure works.
The Lord Erlang, who founded the livestreaming platform, raises an eyebrow and gives a scornful smile. "Do you think I'm dead?"
The Lord Erlang agrees to look after Liu Chiti at the Matchmaker's request, but as he cares for him, he starts harboring designs of his own.
Unfortunately, the little immortal is sharp as a tack when it comes to gossip, but hopelessly oblivious when it comes to himself.
Until one day, Liu Chiti gets an idea and eagerly decides to find the Lord Erlang's destined partner.
He opens his Celestial Eye and sees a red thread stretching from the Lord Erlang's hand all the way to his own little finger.
Liu Chiti: ?
Liu Chiti: ??
Liu Chiti: ???
He jerks his head up to look at the Lord Erlang, but all he sees is the Lord Erlang turning away, his ears bright red.
Gossip-loving little immortal x sharp-tongued but soft-hearted Lord Erlang. One-on-one, happy ending.
The red-thread system is entirely the author's original creation.
