Please add it to your reading list~ [Wife-Obsessed CEO Top vs. Cool, Aloof Swordsman Star Bottom] [A swordsman from ancient times transmigrates to the modern world, goes on an adventure, and causes a series of blunders as he charges into showbiz] Blurb: Version 1: What happens when an ancient swordsman transmigrates to the modern world? He gets thoroughly ravished (not really), and catches the eye of a wife-obsessed maniac! Jiang Lin, seventh-generation disciple of the Sword Sect, transmigrates to modern society. He enters showbiz to make a living, and then… A tough-guy movie star uses secret code to invite him to bed, a straightforward rich second-generation puppy begs him to sleep with him, and a handsome, wealthy investor throws money at him in hopes of getting him into bed! Jiang Lin: Wait, something doesn't seem right here… Why is this world so gay? The first time Ji Xiangming sees Jiang Lin, he's practicing swordplay: his movements are sharp, his expression cool and aloof, and he seems utterly chaste and unapproachable. From Jiang Lin's keep-away aura, Ji Xiangming can sense a desire clamoring to get out. He says, “Come on, fuck me.” * Version 2: Jiang Lin on screen: A model of morality, the epitome of virtue, an abstinent heartthrob, overflowing with masculine charm, a living monument to chastity. Jiang Lin in real life: Has to look everything up online, loves transmigration stories, and is the king of deadpan jokes (though he doesn't agree). At his first interview, right after transmigrating, for a part-time martial arts instructor position The interviewer tactfully points out, “You don't look much like your résumé photo in person.” Jiang Lin tries to break the ice with a perfectly straight face. “Maybe it's a catfish photo.” Interviewers: … During his first livestream The host asks him to greet the viewers. Jiang Lin salutes with cupped fists. “Greetings, everyone. I am Jiang Lin, courtesy name Chengying, also known as the Bamboo Grove Hermit. The martial world calls me Cloud Drifter of a Thousand Miles.” Netizens: This guy has to be joking. Where'd they find this clown? After he gets famous, he gives an interview A reporter asks, “What would you like to say to your past self?” Jiang Lin, dead serious: “I regret it. I really, really regret it.” Fans: No need to tell such a stale joke. How old is that meme already?! This is the story of an ancient swordsman who transmigrates to the modern world, has no common sense and relies heavily on the internet, then gets stuck on the road to deadpan humor as he makes his way into showbiz. * Dramas within the story: the ancient political intrigue series Changning, others to be decided Tips: 1. The bottom isn't actually addicted to the internet. He just likes looking things up online. 2. One-on-one, both are faithful and inexperienced, with a touch of everyone-loves-him. The top and bottom only have eyes for each other. 3. Fictional setting, same-sex marriage is legal, and there are no male pregnancy elements. 4. The author isn't a fan or part of any fandom. The showbiz details are made up, so don't overanalyze them. No real-life inspiration, and no face-swapping. Coming soon: Bro, Is This Right?! Scheming, secretly flirtatious top x hot-tempered, straight bottom Xu Zhi is exactly what his name suggests: straight as a ruler. He's been single for twenty years, and watching all his roommates find partners has made him want to date, too. He's got plenty going for him, except that he can't be alone with girls. He gets nervous as soon as he talks, and the more nervous he gets, the more awkward he sounds. Plenty of girls are drawn in by his looks, only to be driven away by his mouth. Xu Zhi is miserable. At last, the goddess of his class ignores what people might say and invites him to dinner. Xu Zhi doesn't want her to storm off in a huff. So, late at night, he posts online: [I'm a guy, and I like women. My strengths: I'm kind of handsome. My weakness: I have a bit of a nasty mouth. I'm having dinner alone with the goddess. How do I make myself sound more charming? Waiting for replies. It's urgent.] Someone quickly replies: Find someone even worse at talking than you are, so you look good by comparison. Xu Zhi thinks that's a great idea. You really can count on the internet! * His friend has a cold-faced, top-of-the-class roommate who's handsome and has a weird temper. He rarely speaks, but when he does, it's something else. Xu Zhi can't think of anyone more suitable. So what if he's handsome? It's not like Xu Zhi is ugly! Besides, he can wear a hat and make himself look bad, right? As long as he keeps quiet or says something harsh, he'll be the perfect foil. Xu Zhi pays a hefty price to persuade the top student to act as his foil. But on the day of the dinner, things seem a little off… While they're ordering, the top student asks the goddess, “Are there any foods you can't eat?” During the meal, he gets her a bib. “Careful not to stain your clothes.” On their walk, he protects her. “You walk on the inside. It's safer.” Xu Zhi watches the top student walk between him and the goddess, and stares in confusion. Bro, is this right?! Weren't you supposed to be bad at talking? A few days later, the top student, who's added the goddess on WeChat, messages Xu Zhi: [I had a great time eating with you last time. Want to go again tomorrow night?] Xu Zhi: [Are you fucking addicted to hitting on girls now?!] Top student: [Sorry, I didn't mean to hit on her.] Xu Zhi: [?] Top student: [If you insist on putting it that way, I'm trying to hit on you.] Xu Zhi: [Get lost!!!] * #Little scene# Yu Sinian pins Xu Zhi in a corner, their bodies pressed close together. Xu Zhi doesn't like the position. “Bro, is this right?” “Bro?” Yu Sinian glances down at Xu Zhi's hard brother and asks with a laugh, “Is this right?” For more upcoming novels, visit the author's page.
