"Shadow Escape" Blurb:
[Gentle, considerate daddy-type top x well-behaved, loyal-dog shadow guard bottom]
When Ying Jiu was captured and thrown down in front of him, Lin Huaiqin wiped the snow from his fingertips and smiled maliciously.
"Your escape failed."
The shadow guard had been tortured in the snow. He curled up, coughing blood, utterly pitiful.
So what?
This shadow guard had improper thoughts, daring to harbor a wildly treasonous desire for him.
As the young sect master of the Yequan Sect, Lin Huaiqin had always been surrounded by admirers, high above everyone else. The affection of a lowly shadow guard only disgusted him.
Not even wanting to spare him a glance, he turned away and said listlessly, "A disobedient dog has no reason to keep on living."
Not hearing the pleas for mercy he wanted, Lin Huaiqin lost interest and said carelessly, "Then crush him to pieces, bit by bit, from head to toe."
Ying Jiu, dragged into the torture chamber, soon sank into a sea of blood and agony. So did Lin Huaiqin, a medical doctor from the modern world who had inexplicably transmigrated and taken over the body of the Yequan Sect's young sect master.
When Lin Huaiqin saw Ying Jiu again, the shadow guard lay among all manner of dreadful instruments of torture. His breathing was faint, his eyes vacant, and he looked so fragile that he might die with his next breath.
That face, pale and drained of blood from enduring everything in silence, drew Lin Huaiqin toward him before he knew it.
"Ying Jiu?"
Lin Huaiqin could not help reaching out to test him.
That young, anguished face was just as he had imagined: damp, cold, and pitiful.
He crouched down, stroked his head, and spoke in a soft, low voice. "Xiao Jiu, don't be afraid. It won't hurt much longer."
[Reading Guide]
1. The top is the main focus. An old-school shadow guard redemption story, with a transmigrated top and a healing storyline. The top is a modern person who transmigrates into another body. This is written to suit my personal tastes, so please leave if it's not for you. (Please spare this niche writer. If there were anything to read, I wouldn't have to write it myself!)
2. Shadow guard stories are bound to involve life-and-death power over the other person and a severe imbalance in status. If you're an extreme top- or bottom-fan, please steer clear.
3. The bottom is a shadow guard, a weapon trained to be treated as an object. What he feels for the original owner is mostly admiration. Admiration isn't love (you can look it up yourself). It's the mindless devotion and worship of someone who believes [their master is the only one, the master they must protect with their life for the rest of their days]. His genuine affection and love are for the top he has now.
4. The author is a fifty-year-old senior citizen with 2G internet, living alone in a nursing home and clueless about fandom. I'm a hopelessly illiterate person who just writes what I like. Read it if you like it, and click away if you don't. Please don't make personal attacks, okay?
"Does a Shadow Guard Have to Be Bound to a Romance System Too?" Blurb:
Pitiful, devoted shadow guard bottom x mischievous, doting daddy top
Jin Ye was a shadow guard, as wooden, loyal, cautious, and discreet as any other.
Then one day, something suddenly became bound to his mind:
[Romance System: Target: Regent Xiao Heng. Mission: Make him fall in love with you. Failure: Host will be killed.]
Jin Ye: ...?
Even a shadow guard with no words to spare has to be bound to a romance system?
So what if he got killed?
Making the regent fall in love with a shadow guard? He might as well just die.
[Romance System, making a heart with its hands: If you fail, your precious master will be killed.]
Jin Ye: ...
How could a shadow guard just watch his master get killed?!
So the utterly loyal shadow guard was forced to start frantically testing the limits of what he could get away with.
While his master reviewed memorials, he forced himself to stay calm as he handed him a cup of tea, claiming, "This subordinate's hands were shaking."
When his master was attacked by assassins, he gritted his teeth and took out a handkerchief embroidered with two male magpies to wipe away his master's sweat.
When his master bathed... Jin Ye silently clenched his fist.
Maybe he should just come clean.
[Romance System: Think it through, Host. That's your precious master. If he's killed, he'll be gone forever.]
Jin Ye: ...
The next day, a group of shadow guards hauled Jin Ye in front of Xiao Heng.
"My lord! Commander Jin was muttering nonsense all night, and even seemed inclined to hurt himself!"
"My lord! I also saw Commander Jin embroidering. He kept saying something about affection levels as he stitched!"
Xiao Heng propped his chin on his hand and tapped the two male magpies embroidered on the handkerchief with a fingertip, utterly baffled.
"This shadow guard..."
"Could he have lost his mind because he can't have me?"
#The shadow guard is still going bald trying to win over his master today#
#He only wanted to do his duty, but was forced to overstep his station#
#How to drive a loyal shadow guard mad with a system#
One-on-one romance, happy ending, both leads are each other's first.

This is the author's first attempt at a sweet, satisfying System novel, and I'll work hard on it. I'm very reliable about finishing my stories, so I hope you'll add it to your collection!
Theme: Redemption and healing
Wait a minute, I'm standing on the wrong side [turning out] Yan Zi, please stand up 😭
Giving everything and loving without reservation 🥺 I have always felt that Lu Chengxuan Shadow Owl and Lao Deng Yanhuai are like the control group. Shadow Owl is really like a puppy and will follow you wholeheartedly as long as you treat him a little bit well. Although Lu Chengxuan himself has been traumatized, at least he is sincere to his subordinates, and Lao Deng will not be where he is today even if he gives a little favor in the right way.
It's so delicious, it's so delicious, and the miracle doctor has rejuvenated me. I feel much better. 🐶🌹 But why did the light suddenly disappear? [Angry] The child got things done so resolutely, ee is very satisfied. To be more serious, what I like most is that both of them broke their own principles for each other. Yanhuai, who is usually such a rule-abiding person, also wants to open the back door for Asang so that the children will suffer less, and he does not hesitate to ask Xiaolin. And Asang, who grew up by the sea and makes a living by the sea, also swears to the sea that his sincerity will never change. It is a very solemn promise. In short, it is a perfect two-way journey, locked for life.
When I saw Asang running taller than the swallow, I realized something was wrong~ The 0 and 1 written in the big pen seemed to have a height limit [let me be healthy] [let me be healthy]
Elder Xie: Let me tell you, Yanhuai is still chirping. Asang: Got it "Brother, I feel a little uncomfortable."
I'm a young man with a strong temper. Ah Sang, you are so brave. I really underestimate you.
Thank you for meeting me, thank you for accompanying me, thank you for this time that I have been catching up on, and thank you for Ayou. I really love this article, I really love the thoughtful and lovely Ayou who created this article, and I really love everyone who is waiting with me on time to share happiness, panic, distress, or touching in the comment area. Thinking about it now, I really feel that the day when I first started to catch up on time was two months ago. How could time go by so fast? Although I really feel reluctant to leave, I can only reluctantly say goodbye for now. However, as long as the characters in the book are still there, Ayou is still there, and we are still there, their beauty and warmth will continue endlessly, and the two-way rush between readers and Ayou will always exist [][][] Looking forward to Ayou's advance collection and the possible new episode "After the Shadow Guard Fails to Escape"! If there is any news, I will sprint to the scene at a speed of 100 meters! Come on Ayou! I hope Ayou's tenosynovitis will heal soon! Ayou must pay attention to your health and take a good rest. I wish Ayou happy every day! ❤️❤️❤️
I'm really going to be angry... Yanhuai covered himself up like crazy. That place was so uncomfortable. I don't know what to say. I feel so sorry for Yanzi. The recognition of Lao Deng's inhumanity has reached a new level. We still don't know where the limit of Mr. Yanhuai's endurance is. How many unconscionable abuses he has experienced... Only we can't imagine that Lao Deng couldn't do something as cruel and inhumane as the candlestick. For what Yanzi has experienced, it may even be nothing. And he was only 14 years old that year. Yan has lived like this for 15 years. Lao Deng is completely abnormal. Such a life. Even if his status is humble, lowly, and not worth mentioning in your eyes, that person is still a person after all. How can he be treated like rotten meat? It's really too much... Asang, treat him well and you will be happy ❤️ (I'm really so angry that I'm not even in the mood to post emojis) (I also want to ask Ayou. Although this question may be a bit redundant, has Yanzi been sexually abused by Lao Deng? Lao Deng is such a... Person. I really have no adjectives. He is a beast)
I want to squat in the current situation of Jiuningyuan hahahahahahaha Everyone in Jiuningyuan: Wow, the sky has fallen. Why did you have a good sleep? After the show, the sect master and his wife disappeared. Hahaha (actually, he is crazy and has no choice).
Alas, it was not easy for Shadow Owl and Lawrence Lu to reach where I am now step by step. Alas, I hope their road will become broader and broader in the future 🤗 Ahhhh, why did Ayou get tenosynovitis! Ayou must pay attention to your health and have a good rest! If you have the energy and the body allows, I will write ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ Hug Ayou 🤗 🤗 🤗 🤷 🤷 🤷 I hope Ayou will get well soon! [Pill][pill][pill] (Ayou, did you see my question in the last chapter? 🍉)
