Gu Ying is a Goudiao, a mythical bird.
Though ancient texts describe the Goudiao as a vicious bird of prey, Gu Ying only just managed to take human form.
But on the very first day after transforming, he accidentally ended up in a strange world of the future.
Neon lights flicker and skyscrapers tower. The things flying through the sky aren't his kind, but all sorts of aircraft.
Gu Ying shakily ducked out of sight and picked up a newspaper from the ground. It read:
[The Alliance is making every effort to find ancient creatures for research, such as Goudiao, giant snakes, cockroaches, and more.]
Gu Ying: I'm freaking out!
A week after learning how to use the internet, Gu Ying eagerly went online to check how the world had developed.
Who would have thought that the day after registering an account, he'd receive a friend request from a stranger?
[Is your ID Big Diao?]
[Is that Big Diao of yours the real deal?]
Gu Ying silently glanced at his ID, then at his reflection in the mirror. Without blushing or skipping a beat, he replied:
[The real deal. I'm Big Diao, Brother Zhuang, in the flesh.]
Rumors have been spreading around the Alliance lately that Commander Chu Rong may be in love.
Chu Rong, who usually keeps everyone at arm's length, has been staring at his phone with a silly grin every day. His adjutant sneaked a look and saw that the commander's username was:
[Big Diao, Brother Zhuang]
Adjutant: ? Big Diao or Big Diao? So this is the commander's type?
①
Gu Ying is most afraid when Chu Rong holds him in his arms and, while helping him stretch, makes some "difficult requests."
For example:
"Baby, let me see your true form, okay?"
Coaxed and cajoled, Gu Ying bit his lip for a long time before replying, "Y-you can look, but you can't laugh at me. Otherwise, I'll cry!"
But the poor Goudiao didn't have the sharp claws and powerful physique described in ancient books.
Instead, he curled into a fluffy ball, raised his head, and asked timidly, "Is... is this okay?"
That night, Chu Rong heard the legendary Goudiao's cry.
But it wasn't as piercing as the books said. Instead, it came with broken snatches of speech...
②
They say Commander Chu Rong brought back a "toy," and everyone is waiting for the day he throws it away.
But who could have expected that at a meeting a year later, Gu Ying, the "toy" who should have been kicked out long ago, would be nestled carefully in Chu Rong's arms?
Chu Rong apologized in a quiet, almost pleading voice: "I'm sorry, baby. I was wrong. I lost control for a moment. I won't do it again."
The frail young man raised his chin and turned his face away. "Chu Rong, look at all the marks you've left on my wings. Don't even think about getting in my bed again!"
Under everyone's shocked gaze, Chu Rong gently stroked Gu Ying's wings and softly soothed him: "All right. How about you get in my bed instead?"
