Beauty That Sinks Fish and Drops Pearls

[The entire novel is already written. Even though not many people are reading it, I'll keep posting daily until it's all up.]

Su Yue has been able to see into other people's hearts since childhood. She can read their joys and sorrows, and knows whether they're telling the truth or lying. But seeing too clearly is bound to bring pain. Human nature is complicated and unpredictable.

Then she met a fat fish, weak and pitiful, but with a heart that felt warm to the touch, unlike any other. Su Yue stayed by his side and protected him, accompanied him and taught him, until an accident separated them.

She thought it was just one stage of her life, something she would soon forget. But after a thousand years of witnessing how people's hearts change, Su Yue finally realized how rare it was to remain true to one's original feelings. A fat fish like him would never come along a second time.

Fortunately, they reunited. Only... the useless boy who had been bullied by everyone had become the supreme Heavenly Emperor, and the cold-palace prince who had once owned nothing had become the ruler of the human world. Before she knew it, her Fat Fish Brother had grown into a towering tree and no longer needed her protection.

Su Xuan grew up unloved by both his father and mother, always alone. His only pleasures in life were cultivating and secretly stirring up trouble.

But after scheming so much, he could no longer tell what was real and what was fake. Though he had won everyone's hearts, he still felt lonely, until he met his little Zhu'er again.

She hadn't changed at all: innocent, yet sly.

A thousand years apart had done nothing to weaken their feelings. In Heaven or in the human world, it turned out... he had long since locked this girl away in his heart, never to let her go.

Scheming, ruthless, black-turned-white giant Kunpeng VS adorable-faced, ruthless, white-turned-black little sea spirit

My heart is open and honest, and I have nothing to fear from your gaze. All I seek in this life is sincerity.

Reading guide: 1. A long novel focused on character growth, with a somewhat slow start. The Heaven chapters are mainly from the heroine's perspective and focus on romance, with a smaller cast. The human-world chapters are mainly from the hero's perspective and focus on his career, with a larger ensemble.

2. The story has extensive original worldbuilding, so please don't nitpick the details.

3. The male and female leads are devoted to each other from beginning to end. They save each other, and their romance is sweet, though the plot has angst. Overall, it's a healing story.

Theme: Defy fate and refuse to accept your lot.
