The Sickly Beauty Tries Every Day to Snuggle Up to the Commander

My writing is reliable, so come on in! Here are the next two novels I'm planning to start: [Reborn and Spoiled by My Archenemy] and [A Handsome Straight Guy Is Forced to Be Raised by a Rugged Wildman]. Please add them to your reading lists!!! Blurbs are at the very bottom~

[Fraillooking, top-tier spirit artifact ancestor bottom x old-fashioned, self-deluding commander top]

[Interstellar entertainment + musical instruments gaining sentience + music-based cultivation + Blue Star rising + everyone gets face-slapped]

As a once-renowned top-tier spirit artifact in the immortal realm,

Qi Qingwan woke up to find himself inhabiting a frail body with a damaged heart meridian, one that coughed up blood after just a few steps...

Though his chest hurt with every breath and he was so fragile he seemed liable to shatter at any moment,

he could regain his strength as soon as he got his original body back.

But he discovered that his original body, an ancient zither, had been left in the possession of a man.

That man was Yan Anxiu, the cold, rigid, haughty head of the Yan family.

To get close to his original body and nourish his soul,

Qi Qingwan had no other choice but to sneak into Yan Anxiu's room every night...

Yan Anxiu had a problem lately.

That pretty young man kept sneaking in every night and cuddling up to him.

That was far too shameless!

At first, Yan Anxiu suspected he was a spy or an assassin sent by a rival.

But once the young man got into bed, all he did was curl up at Yan Anxiu's side, his pale cheeks gaining a faint flush.

Yan Anxiu watched his slender, fragile neck,

watched his thin chest rise and fall with each breath, watched him lean against Yan Anxiu in his sleep, dependent and unaware... His Adam's apple bobbed.

One night, Qi Qingwan once again climbed into his bed with practiced ease.

Yan Anxiu seized his wrist and pinned him firmly between the brocade covers.

"Sneaking into a man's bedroom again and again in the middle of the night..."

He kissed the young man's earlobe, his voice low and husky.

"What are you after?"

The little beauty trembled in fright, his face pale, and coughed twice.

For a moment, he couldn't speak.

"If you like getting handsy so much, there's no need to sneak around."

Yan Anxiu opened the young man's thin shirt, his gaze dark.

"I'll let you stay here. But you'll have to pay the price yourself."

Later, Qi Qingwan finally got his entire original body, the ancient zither, back.

He was convinced he could leave Yan Anxiu at last.

But at a certain nighttime banquet hosted by a powerful family,

when Yan Anxiu played the strings of that zither in front of everyone,

Qi Qingwan, seated among the guests, suddenly went limp with a soft moan. He slid right off his chair and fell into Yan Anxiu's arms as the man reached out in time to catch him.

In this life, every sensation in his body was connected to the zither...

An unfamiliar tingling and weakness surged through his limbs, while shivers of resonance rippled from the depths of his soul.

Qi Qingwan tipped up his flushed face, his eyes glistening with tears, full of panic and confusion.

Yan Anxiu held him securely, his fingertips still casually plucking a zither string, making the person in his arms tremble again.

He lowered his head and, under everyone's gaze, asked slowly in a voice only the two of them could hear,

"...Still trying to run?"

[Reading Guide]

1. The bottom is frail at first, but regains his strength later and becomes powerful. At heart, they're evenly matched.

2. The top is cold and rigid at first, but later realizes how much he loves him and becomes a devoted husband who dotes on and protects his wife.

3. Music-based cultivation, not a typical entertainment-industry story.

4. All instruments and musical modes are original creations, blended with an interstellar setting. This isn't traditional cultivation, so readers who care about strict research should take note.

5. A satisfying progression fantasy focused on plot and worldbuilding, with a compelling romance too, QWQ.

6. Please don't send writing advice, thanks!

[Reborn and Spoiled by My Archenemy]

Please add it to your reading list!!! Ten thousand words are already written. I'll start once it gets enough saves~

[Childhood friends + mpreg + archenemies + rebirth + doting + sweet romance]

[Reborn, gloomy, sensitive, high-maintenance bottom x lovesick, doting, perverted top]

Duan Ran and Song Jingshuo had fought like mortal enemies since they were three, but somehow, when they were twenty-one, they fell for each other.

Not only did they have a one-night stand, but Duan Ran also ended up pregnant with a child.

Though they married because of the pregnancy, they had a loving marriage. Song Jingshuo gave Duan Ran his entire monthly salary, and even when they were at their poorest, he still bought Duan Ran eighteen-yuan bottles of Perrier.

But their happiness didn't last. Just as Song Jingshuo's career was taking off, a business rival deliberately ran over Duan Ran and their child, killing them. As he died, Duan Ran was still clutching the engagement ring he shared with Song Jingshuo.

When he opened his eyes again, he was straddling Song Jingshuo, pinning him to a desk.

Song Jingshuo's face was bright red. "Duan Ran, you bastard..."

Before he could finish, Duan Ran's tears fell onto his face.

His eyes were red as a rabbit's, tears clinging to his lashes, on the verge of falling.

He'd been so fierce just moments ago, but now he looked like a cat abandoned in the rain.

Duan Ran had never cried like this before, not once in his life.

His usual pride was gone. His voice was soft and hoarse. "A Shuo, our baby... is gone."

Then he fainted.

-

From then on, Duan Ran stopped fighting.

Every day, he folded his school uniform into a little bundle and held it in his arms, head bowed as he hummed lullabies. When people laughed at him, he didn't talk back. He only hugged the uniform tighter.

Song Jingshuo laughed and called him a sissy, but Duan Ran looked up at him with red-rimmed eyes. "A Shuo, look, isn't our baby cute?"

He thought Duan Ran had gone crazy.

But when he saw that Duan Ran had grown so thin that his collarbones were sunken, his uniform hanging loosely off his body, Song Jingshuo could think of only one thing:

How could he get him to put on weight?

-

Later, Duan Ran tossed and turned at night, calling out "Baby" over and over. He tugged Song Jingshuo by the collar, burrowed into his arms, and begged him to give them another child.

Song Jingshuo clenched his fists and pinned Duan Ran to the bed, gritting his teeth.

"Why do you need a baby? Isn't having me enough?"

1. [A Handsome Straight Guy Is Forced to Be Raised by a Rugged Wildman]

I'll start as soon as it gets enough saves!

When Jian Yi woke up, he found his hands and feet tied to a cross...

Bad news: He had transmigrated to a primitive era and was about to become dinner for the native wildmen.

Good news: The wildmen were, well, pretty huge.

The rugged wildman at their head stood at least six foot three, with a body full of bulging muscles and a solid six-pack covered in scars. He was all raw, savage energy.

Jian Yi couldn't stop staring at the man's grass skirt.

Hey, he was tied up! There wasn't much else he could look at.

Then someone kicked him hard.

Oh, the one who kicked him was his longtime archenemy. They'd transmigrated together.

Fu Chen was always clever and well-read. After plenty of effort, he managed to lead Jian Yi out of the wildmen's camp.

Jian Yi really wanted to go against Fu Chen, but he was useless and a bit of an idiot, so all he could do was mooch food and shelter from him...

Fu Chen took him into the jungle to live off the land: building houses and bridges, hunting and raising livestock, farming and cooking.

Their days were blissful, and they were practically living like a married couple!

But at some point, Fu Chen began noticing strange marks on Jian Yi's body that weren't his own.

Even the way Jian Yi walked seemed a little odd.

At last, one day, he caught them in the act!

Deep in the shadowy jungle, the bronze-skinned, rugged wildman bent over, hungrily licking and kissing the tender, snow-white skin like a beast.

The difference in their builds was enormous. The wildman could almost wrap one hand around Jian Yi's waist...

"Mmm... Let go."

Jian Yi couldn't push him away, the tips of his ears turning bright red.

Just as he was at his most embarrassed, he turned around and met Fu Chen's eyes.

Jian Yi: ...

Fu Chen: .

So... forcing him was all it took?

[Bonus Scene]

Before transmigrating...

Jian Yi: I'm straight!

After transmigrating...

Jian Yi: Hehe, being kept is great!

Three years later...

As Jian Yi ran away with his big belly, his eyes filled with tears.

Waaah, I really don't want to have any more babies!

The tops: Have the baby. I'll raise it!

2. [Collecting Rent in a Horror Game]

A beautiful bottom who's an amnesiac sweetheart at first and an ultimate powerhouse later x a clever top who dotes on his wife

·

A higher-dimensional game descended upon Earth, bringing monsters, disasters, fog...

Swept into the game, Yan Mu found that his mission was different from everyone else's.

When he woke up in a room, the floor was covered with red property deeds.

A note on the wall had two words written on it: Collect rent.

Yan Mu: ...?

·

A group of NPCs lived inside the game.

They were trapped there, suffering the pain of their energy fading away day and night. Their only way to earn players' points was to open shops and sell things.

Very few players ever made it there, and they struggled to survive, losing hope time and again.

Until a black-haired, innocent-looking boy appeared.

He was their landlord.

The boy had the power to drive away the darkness. They saw him as a god, and he was their only hope of surviving in that place...

·

Every player knew the NPCs in the "System Shop" were all vicious and cruel. Whenever anyone walked in, they wanted to empty their pockets of every last point.

And they were all incredibly strong. No one could beat them.

Then they saw a gentle black-haired boy walk out of shop after shop, while the usually vicious NPCs served him tea and waited on him with the utmost respect.

Onlooking players: ???

Just shut the game down. This isn't fun.

·

At first, the players thought he was just a special NPC.

Until the Everlasting Night descended...

Endless light slowly drifted out from the black-haired boy, like a second sun.

"Don't be afraid. I'll take every one of you away to a new world."

Players who came later: Let go of Mu Bao! I want to worship him!

3. [Daily Life of Raising Gu in the Insectoid World]

Miaojiang witchcraft and gu-controlling bottom x insectoid split-body top

·

Jian Yu was an heir to Miaojiang gu magic. While manipulating gu worms to detoxify his people, he suddenly transmigrated.

When he opened his eyes, he was in the interstellar era.

In this world, the insectoids were the dominant civilization. The capital planet was celebrating, as the once-every-five-years Interstellar Games were underway.

And there Jian Yu was, suddenly appearing out of nowhere at the live broadcast of the preliminary round.

Surrounded by insectoids with fearsome scythes at the front and sharp wings at the back, Jian Yu, with his human form, looked pitiful, weak, and helpless.

"Hello."

Jian Yu tried to keep smiling as he asked the insectoid beside him,

"How are we supposed to compete in this event?"

·

The Interstellar Games were a dangerous competition full of rivals.

The species that entered had to fight for the King until death. They were responsible for their own survival, and only the champion would earn the chance to meet the King.

Jian Yu looked at his own size, then at the insectoid beside him.

...I'm tired. Let's just end the world.

But just then, he discovered that the queen insect sleeping inside him had suddenly awakened.

The male insectoid beside him, who had been about to attack, abruptly shuddered and fell to his knees, bowing in reverence.

·

A smile appeared on Jian Yu's face.

Wait...

Witchcraft lets you control gu worms, and insectoids are bugs too.

If I can control bugs, that means I can control insectoids. That makes perfect sense, right?

·

The spectators watching from outside had this reaction when they saw Jian Yu:

Whose youngling is this? He has no sense at all! How dare he enter the competition in human form?

The judges shook their heads too. With a frail little body like that, he'd be eliminated in no time.

One nobleman watched from the side and said, "I bet he's the first to die. What about you?"

·

The King leaned against the back of his luxurious throne, chin propped on one hand. Feeling the blood inside him roiling and roaring, he smiled.

"I bet he'll be the last one standing."

4. When I Became the Horror Island Harem Favorite

[Former hardcore grinder, now a weakling beauty bottom x Horror Island's strongest veteran top]

Luo An had always thought survival games were pretty relaxing.

As long as he had the stamina to grind, he could make a place of his own.

Then one day, he and a group of unlucky players dropped into "Horror Island" like dumplings into a pot.

Insects had grown gigantic, plants ate people, and seven eerie cities stood in the darkness. They said the only clue to finding a way home was hidden inside.

The weakling Luo An watched the players around him screaming in terror and fell silent for three seconds.

This map, this architectural style, this boss placement...

Why was it exactly like the obscure city-building game he'd spent three years grinding and twenty thousand yuan playing?

--

Other people awakened abilities like fireballs, lightning, and stealth.

Luo An's ability: Open the construction interface.

Other people ran for their lives. The boss is coming, run!

Luo An stood still. "Why does this three-headed snake look so much like the demolition crew leader on my island?"

The three-headed snake stopped and tilted all three heads.

The next second, its tail carefully curled around Luo An and set him on its back.

Luo An: ?

Later, the bosses of Horror Island started trying to outdo one another.

The goat carried Luo An around the territory every day, the octopus built him an underwater palace, and the wyvern personally brought over ore to expand the city.

Other players: ??? You can play this game like that?

Luo An: When it comes to city building, you just have to grind. It's just that this batch of workers is a little too enthusiastic.

Until one day, the ruler of the seven cities, the unseen Lord of Horror Island, finally appeared before him.

"I hear," the man said in a low voice, pinning him against a newly built city wall, "that you tore down my home and rebuilt it as yours?"

Luo An looked at that familiar face, the man who always sat on the throne in the game, and the one he'd spent the most money on. He stammered,

"Uh, what if I said I was just here to renovate the place for you? Would you believe me?"

About how I got the bosses by spending money in the game.

And how I turned Horror Island into a cozy home is another story entirely.
