Gentle, loyal, mildly coercive top (Yan Hui) X sickly, tsundere, secret-identity-revealed, tragic beauty bottom (Luo Heng)
Lots of chapters already written. Add it to your collection!
Luo Heng has spent three years living a leisurely life farming and fishing. His biggest worry each day is how to get meat on the table. Then one night, while fishing, he acts on impulse and rescues a stranger from a gang of thieves, accidentally revealing a hint of his unusual abilities.
Yan Hui has the keen eyes of an eagle, the curiosity of a cat, and a knack for asking questions until he gets answers. Like a beast that catches the scent of blood and refuses to let go, he keeps asking the same thing: "Who are you?"
Luo Heng drinks the talisman water the man offers him, a brew that lets demons take human form, and manages a stiff smile. "I'm a farmer."
Yan Hui still doesn't believe him and tries all kinds of ways to test his identity. One day, a real demon attacks and slams headfirst into the barrier outside the house. Yan Hui turns a suspicious gaze on him again. "Who are you?"
Luo Heng's mouth twitches. "...Actually, I know a little about talisman cultivation..."
Faced with thousands of wandering ghosts, he can't bear to watch the living suffer. With one move, he tears open the space between the human and netherworld realms. Everyone stares at him in disbelief, their mouths hanging open wide enough to fit an egg.
Yan Hui's expression darkens. He asks again, "Who are you?"
Luo Heng can no longer smile.
After being told "the wolf is coming" so many times, Yan Hui refuses to believe him. He pins Luo Heng against the wall and forcefully grips his chin. "Tell me the truth, or you'll regret it."
Luo Heng has as many secret identities as he has wits, and he's told so many lies that even he can't keep them straight. As expected, he falls into the hands of the most suspicious man around. He carefully guards his secret identities so he can live in peace, but his conscience keeps getting in the way, and the man is simply too hard to fool...
Somewhere along the way, his brazen lies turn into cautious sweet-talk... and he falls even harder...
The top is gentle, calm, and restrained overall. He asks, "May I?" before every kiss, but once he gets a yes, he can't stop. He only loses control and gets mildly coercive when the bottom lies to him over and over, then feels wronged and apologizes afterward.
