Blurb

Qin Yi was a pampered young master who'd grown up surrounded by love and luxury. As soon as he debuted, he had already reached the heights most people spent their entire lives striving for.

Perhaps because life had always gone so smoothly, Qin Yi was envious when he heard that a friend in the entertainment industry had been deceived in an online relationship. Inspired, the friend wrote several hit songs. Qin Yi decided he wanted to experience the bitter side of love too.

Following his friend's example, Qin Yi added someone from a social app who seemed to have it all. His profile said he was twenty-eight, worth hundreds of billions, and 1.9 meters tall. Qin Yi studied the half-visible photo of a man with broad shoulders, narrow hips, and an extraordinary air, and was quietly satisfied.

But after searching around for someone who matched those criteria, Qin Yi couldn't find anyone. So he made up a fake persona too, claiming to be a poor, adorable little thing kicked out of his home and living off his singing.

Who could have guessed that this random online dating match would suffer from severe insomnia? After hearing Qin Yi sing just once, he treated Qin Yi like a lifeline and couldn't sleep unless Qin Yi sang for him.

Qin Yi was certainly experiencing the hardships of online dating. Not only did he have to help his boyfriend fall asleep, he also had to role-play with him from time to time.

As they kept acting, Qin Yi found himself starting to fall for him. Then, on the day they finally met in person, the man standing in front of him turned out to be the taciturn bodyguard who worked for him.

Wait, when we were dating online, you kept calling me "wife" and saying you wanted to kiss, hug, and cuddle with me, and that you wanted to leave me unable to get out of bed. So all that was just talk?

Qin Yi: Thanks for asking. On the second day of our online relationship, my boyfriend moved in next door.

The top's perspective

When Pei Yanzhou received the invitation to start an online relationship, he was still overseas. Mountains of paperwork and the oppressive, sleepless gloom were suffocating him. He casually opened the other person's profile, and the bright, cheerful singing gave him a hint of drowsiness.

Sunny Big Mushroom: Hi, want to date online?

.: Sure.

One short reply, and he had himself an online boyfriend.

Without lifting a finger, Pei Yanzhou found all of Qin Yi's information. That very night, he packed up and returned home. The next day, he got hired as Qin Yi's bodyguard and moved in next door.

By day, he was a quiet, dutiful bodyguard. By night, he was a top who never ran out of dirty talk. Everything was perfect, if only Qin Yi hadn't started avoiding him.

A little extra

After they finally met and confessed their feelings, Qin Yi braced himself on a waist that felt like it was about to break and kicked the bodyguard out of bed. Who said old men couldn't perform? He was more than capable.

Qin Yi: I'm not the only person in the world to fall in love with two men. (Crossed out)

Qin Yi: Fuck that, it's just one person!

Coming soon 1: A Guide to Pampering a Frail, Clingy Flower

When Yu Luotang woke up one morning, he discovered that the world he lived in was just a book, and that he was the cannon-fodder foil to the protagonist bottom.

A beautiful, spoiled, frail and sickly clingy flower who could only survive by wagging his tail and clinging to others.

The protagonist bottom was his younger brother, Yu Luobai, who had been sunny and outgoing since childhood, with a shrewd mind and a knack for getting things done. He debuted at eighteen and quickly made a name for himself in the entertainment industry.

All the family's supposed painstaking efforts to raise Yu Luotang were just so they could sell him for a good price and pave the way for Yu Luobai.

Fortunately, he recovered his memories the night before he was supposed to discuss an engagement with the protagonist top.

The protagonist top had been having a secret affair with his younger brother all along. Not long after their marriage alliance, the two of them would plot to kill Yu Luotang and take all his assets. His family would shed a few perfunctory tears, then forget about him.

Yu Luotang turned down the sanctimonious protagonist top and chose Xie Wangqi, the great villain in the book.

They said Xie Wangqi suffered from severe insomnia, was violent and tyrannical, behaved outrageously, and terrified everyone in the imperial capital.

Yu Luotang didn't care. He just wanted to leave the Yu family and stay alive.

Besides, Xie Wangqi wasn't as cold and heartless as he'd imagined. Instead, he was gentle and considerate, doted on him, and granted his every wish.

Except that he was a little... clingy.

He had to hold Yu Luotang every night to fall asleep, loved nibbling the red mole on his collarbone, and would lift his chin to smother him in sticky kisses. His needs also seemed especially...

Xie Wangqi suddenly found himself with a delicate, frail arranged-marriage partner, so beautiful he was impossible to look away from. One glance, and he couldn't take his eyes off him.

When he was with Yu Luotang, his increasingly severe headaches gradually eased. Cuddling and clinging together calmed his violent moods little by little. Sharing a bed with him let him sleep through the night.

Xie Wangqi wished he could pluck the stars from the sky and give everything to his little clingy flower.

"Xie Wangqi, I'm scared to be alone. Stay with me."

"Okay."

"Big brother, I want the Yu family ruined, and Yu Luobai disgraced."

"Okay."

"Hubby, you have to love me more than you did yesterday."

"Okay."

"Puppy, you don't know when to stop. We need to sleep in separate rooms."

"No."

Xie Wangqi gazed at Yu Luotang with blood-red eyes, hooked a finger under his chin, and kissed him deeply. Other than that, he could grant Yu Luotang any wish he wanted.

A Guide to Pampering a Clingy Flower

1. The little flower is afraid of the dark and thunder. Hold him in your arms and soothe him to sleep.

2. The little flower is delicate and frail. Keep the medicine he needs ready, and be extremely restrained and gentle when things get intimate.

3. The little flower needs lots of money and even more love. Love him very, very much.

4. Support your little flower unconditionally. Whatever he wants, whatever he needs, be the vine he can climb, not a thorny cage that traps him.

P.S. The bottom will have a career of his own.

Coming soon 2: Cuddling Up to My Tentacled Catnip Top Really Can Extend My Life!

As the last cat demon to cultivate into a spirit before the founding of the country, Su Mubai had an unstable soul from a young age and was delicate and frail.

Following a celestial master's advice, Su Mubai entered the entertainment industry as a teenager and became a top-tier star. He earned his fans' affection to stabilize his soul, but the results were negligible.

As Su Mubai grew weaker by the day, his grandfather gritted his teeth and sent him to marry the powerful Bo Yanchi, whose spiritual powers were formidable.

Su Mubai had heard that Bo Yanchi's spiritual power was so strong it was difficult to control, making him tyrannical and violent, cold as ice, and indifferent to others. The demons of the imperial capital trembled whenever they heard his name.

Su Mubai prepared himself to be thrown out as soon as they met. Who could have guessed that Bo Yanchi would be gentle and considerate, and absolutely adore kissing, hugging, and cuddling with him?

The first time he saw Bo Yanchi:

Su Mubai: Blushing, heart pounding, limbs going limp, head spinning. He smells so good, so good. I want to inhale him.

Grandpa, why didn't you tell me the big shot was a catnip spirit?

This is heaven. Cat heaven!

Su Mubai struck a deal with Bo Yanchi. He would help Bo Yanchi untangle his ball-of-yarn-like spiritual power, and Bo Yanchi would help stabilize his soul.

Everything went perfectly, except that their cuddles had progressed from fingertips touching to cuddling naked.

Cat doesn't understand. Cat is shocked.jpg

"Kitten, this is dual cultivation. It can stabilize your soul all at once. It's cultivation, perfectly normal."

Su Mubai: "I-is that so?"

The cat hasn't read many books. Don't trick him.

Later...

Su Mubai: "If we're dual cultivating, then fine. But where did those tentacles come from? You said you were catnip. Why are you catnip with a bunch of tentacle vines?"

Bo Yanchi: His gaze was dark and unreadable as he bound up Su Mubai, who was trying to escape.

"Kitten, I just mutated after cultivating for too long. Don't be scared. You clearly like my vines. You get excited every time."

That... didn't seem entirely wrong.

Su Mubai lost himself in the sweet scent of catnip, sinking deeper and deeper. Bo Yanchi's vines coiled around his waist, and red marks covered his body.

Still, he couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. Why was his belly getting bigger and bigger? Had he been tricked into giving his body and heart to a thousand-year-old demon?
