[Fake coldhearted young master x genuinely heartless swindler]

Ji Xiangting died.

He died by the sword of his longtime lover.

He'd climbed from a sword slave in the Ying family to the leader of a rebel army, becoming a great warlord who dared to defy the four great immortal clans. In the end, he was dismembered for his bones and sword, then left exposed in the wilderness.

After years of plotting, one misstep had cost him everything he'd deceived people into gaining over the past century. Now all that remained was Ying Jizhi, his old lover, who had come to take his life.

He couldn't accept it.

He ground his teeth as he looked at Ying Jizhi, the beautiful young master of the Ying family.

Ying Jizhi still wore the same cold, unfeeling expression.

He wondered if the bite marks he'd left last night had faded yet.

-

His obsession was too strong for the underworld to claim him, so Ji Xiangting came back to life.

He could start over on his grand scheme to destroy the four great immortal clans. After mulling it over, Ji Xiangting decided his old lover was still the easiest one to deceive.

He brazenly slipped into the head of the family's residence, smiled at Ying Jizhi's cool face, took off his shoes and socks, and stepped on him. "Is my sword any good?"

Ying Jizhi expressionlessly stared at the uninvited guest before him, then reached out and gripped his ankle.

"You should call me Family Head, Guiyan."

Looking into those eyes brimming with affection, Ji Xiangting felt that some things were slipping beyond his control.

Oh dear, the thousand-year-old tree had blossomed.

Ji Xiangting bent down and silenced him with a kiss, his expression unchanged.

No big deal. This time, he'd seduce his body and win his heart, then... kill him for revenge.

After two lifetimes, it was about time the world changed under his hand.

Reader's Notes:

1. Updates follow the rankings before signing, then daily updates after signing. If you like it, tap the stars and help this couple finish their grand plan and live happily ever after!

2. At heart, this is an indulgent, self-indulgent work made to satisfy my own tastes, with every kind of melodrama.

3. The protagonist is the receiver, one-on-one. Ying is the pursuer and Ji is the pursued. Beautiful pursuer x handsome pursued; older top, strong couple. The pursued is often so dazzled by the pursuer's looks that he loses his head (because I love watching the receiver get flustered by the top's beauty and then get ravished). No swapping roles or pairings. The couple are very much in love. Extreme role-fans, stay away, and please heed the warnings.

4. The pursuer is not weak, not weak, not weak! He is taller and bigger than the pursued. "Beautiful pursuer x handsome pursued" refers only to their different styles of good looks. Anyone who's read the story knows my pursuer can make the pursued pass out from pleasure.

5. They seem like lovers who are both in love and at each other's throats, but in reality, they're both head over heels and don't realize it.

6. The author's notes will add worldbuilding and little scenes. Feel free to check them out ^^.

7. I'm a compulsive editor. I'll make revisions from time to time, adding small details and polishing some of the writing.

[Upcoming story in my author page: I Really Don't Want to Be a Treacherous Minister [Selfcest]]

[A gentleman as bright as the moon and clear as the breeze x a moody villain]

[Gentle, sweet-on-the-outside scheming puppy x sickly cat with the soul of a ghost]

An unconventional nobody-to-everybody's-favorite story, also known as On Whether a Treacherous Minister Can Make History by Raising a Child

Ruan Yi became chancellor at a young age. In just a few short years, he wreaked havoc throughout the court and the country, becoming a truly notorious, hated, and unforgivable traitor.

The more sins you commit, the more likely you are to get what's coming to you. Before the seventh winter was over, he became a soul beneath the executioner's blade.

Ruan Yi's soul floated in the air as he watched his enemies gloat. He touched his neck and laughed as he cursed himself:

"I went too easy on them back then."

If he could be reborn, he should twist all their heads off the moment he saw them and kick them around like balls.

-

Ruan Yi never thought he'd get his wish one day.

But... he had returned to the years he least wanted to face.

His younger self was being mocked by others in a crowd, not even daring to fight back.

Looking at his reddened eyes, Ruan Yi felt another headache coming on. At last, he could take it no longer. He turned and kicked the other boy in the butt.

"You really are hopeless."

-

In his previous life, Ruan Yi would never have imagined that he'd raise a kid in this one.

His younger self was nowhere near as calculating and cunning as he'd become. Whenever Ruan Yi turned around, he would catch Ruan Zhuo staring at him for a long time. To him, the boy looked just like a fluffy puppy who'd picked its owner.

Ruan Yi thought there had to be something wrong with the version of himself who'd brought the boy home.

He only regretted doing it on a whim. Now that things had gone too far to undo, all he could do was smack the kid with a bamboo switch a few times for entertainment.

But...

Why did this little brat's face get redder the more he grew up and got face-slapped?

Only when Ruan Zhuo deliberately kept his injuries and approached Ruan Yi to tempt him into smacking his palm did Ruan Yi throw away the bamboo switch and start kicking him instead.

He really was just like Ruan Yi, daring to rebel against him.

-

Raising a wayward kid was already stressful enough. Who could have guessed that the court would start acting strangely too?

The ministers who'd once wanted to cut Ruan Yi to pieces now fell prostrate before him every day.

"You deserve a place in the Imperial Ancestral Temple, my lord!"

Ruan Yi, who'd heard that several times in one day: ...Hah.

Every last one of them deserved a beating.

Reader's Notes:

1. Ruan Zhuo is the pursuer and Ruan Yi is the pursued. The two are the same person in different lives. Younger pursuer and older pursued, both strong. An unconventional nobody-to-everybody's-favorite story. I'm cooking for myself, so take a bite of this puppy-and-cat pairing.

2. The pursued is moody, vindictive, cold, and heartless, a complete lunatic. The pursuer isn't a good person either and has a [pain fetish]. His feelings for the pursued are also rather twisted. They scheme against each other, but in the end they're a perfect match. They adore each other. If this isn't your thing, please heed the warning.

3. The dynasty is fictional, and there'll be lots of implausible and strange mixed-in details. Don't take it too seriously = =

4. Extreme role-fans, stay away. Whoever you support, they're the same person.

Theme: Keep your feet on the ground.
