After the Failed Confession, the Puppy Top Ran Away

[Main story complete, extras coming]

[Pure-hearted little wolf pup gong x carefree mountain god shou]

Wen Rensheng was a young wolf from Mount Fangze, and he'd admired the mountain god there for a long time.

He'd heard that the mountain god liked picking up junk, so Wen Rensheng transformed into a ragged little beggar and waited halfway up the mountain, hoping the god would take him home.

Wen Rensheng's plan worked. The mountain god really did pick him up, all ragged and tattered, and take him home to raise him.

Days and months passed, and Wen Rensheng slowly grew into a young man. His heart stirred for the first time, and admiration soon turned to love, which he could no longer hide.

He plucked up his courage, took the carefully prepared gift he'd made, and went to find the mountain god. Stumbling over his words, he confessed his feelings.

But he was so nervous that he failed to hide his wolf ears and tail, revealing them just as he spoke those sweet words.

The moment the mountain god saw Wen Rensheng's tail, he reacted as if he'd seen a monster. He turned around, soared away on a cloud, and vanished into the distance.

Wen Rensheng: …Huh?

Wen Rensheng: D-Does that mean he's abandoned me? QAQ!!!

He Mu was the mountain god of Mount Fangze. One day, he found a child.

The child was so hungry he was scrawny, but his eyes were bright and watery. He gazed at He Mu with delight, a tail he'd failed to hide swishing behind him.

He Mu recognized him at once: he was a little wolf from the mountain.

On a whim, he decided to tease the child and took Wen Rensheng home. He went on raising him for many years.

Young people can't hide their feelings. After guessing how Wen Rensheng felt, He Mu found himself gradually developing feelings of his own, feelings he couldn't bring himself to face.

But he had ascended by following the Heartless Dao, and his name had been carved into the Heavenly Realm's Heartless Stele. Even if he had feelings, he couldn't speak them aloud, so he could only pretend not to notice.

He never expected the child to confess first.

Looking at Wen Rensheng, whose ears had turned bright red, He Mu took a deep breath. After years of hesitation, he finally had his answer.

But because of the Heartless Stele, he couldn't tell the child he loved him himself.

So He Mu didn't waste a moment. He flew straight to Heaven, stormed into the Matchmaker's Temple, and forced the Matchmaker to erase his name from the Heartless Stele.

After swiftly taking care of everything, He Mu happily set off for home, eager to hug his precious Shengsheng and shower him with kisses.

But when he got home, he found the house empty. Even the little bundle Wen Rensheng always carried when he went wandering around town was gone.

He Mu grabbed his hair in despair.

Oh no… he'd run away!

Wen Yu was a milk-tea-colored lop-eared rabbit who transmigrated from another planet.

Because he couldn't adapt to Earth's environment, he could only live in human form on Earth for twenty years.

After turning twenty, if he hadn't accumulated enough “energy,” he could turn into a lop-eared rabbit at any moment and would no longer be able to maintain a stable human form.

[Happy eighteenth birthday!]

[A friendly reminder: Your energy progress is still at 0. You have two years left to accumulate enough energy, so keep trying!]

Wen Yu crouched on the sofa, chewing on a carrot as he stared blankly at his phone screen.

…I almost forgot about that.

*

Accumulating energy was simple: find the “caretaker” destined for him, then cuddle up with him.

But after eighteen years as an Earthling, Wen Yu still had no idea how socializing worked.

He tried asking people if they “wanted a lop-eared rabbit,” but they either shook their heads or ran away in terror when he explained, “I'm the lop-eared rabbit.”

Until one day, a man in a sharp suit knocked on his door.

The man held a bouquet of flowers and looked a little nervous, but he bowed politely to Wen Yu.

“Hello, I'm…”

“You don't have to say anything,” Wen Yu said earnestly, taking his hand. “I accept.”

Chu Xi had been secretly in love with someone for a long time.

He'd spent ages planning how to pursue him and crafted a flawless public persona. He'd even figured out how to force him to be his if his confession failed.

But when he finally went to see him, before he could even finish confessing, the person he loved accepted immediately and invited him to move in.

Chu Xi: ? You can do that?

After they got together, Chu Xi continued playing the part of a gentle caretaker and looked after Wen Yu well.

He always kept his distance from Wen Yu, carefully hiding his unhealthy love and never letting it show.

But two years later, the person he loved left him nothing but a lop-eared rabbit, then vanished without a trace.

Chu Xi had thought Wen Yu wanted a quiet, ordinary life, so he watched what he said and did, presenting himself as a polished, perfect, gentle boyfriend.

But now he didn't want to wait any longer.

Now all he wanted was to find that person, lock him away somewhere only he knew about, and never let him out.
