The blurb for my next story, "I Secretly Moved In Next Door to My Ex," is below. If you're interested, please add it to your favorites, sweet readers!

Underhanded, gloomy, obsessive seme x gentle, straightforward, perceptive sunshine uke

Carefree, gentle young master x shy, indifferent mission-taker (for reference only)

In his previous life, Xie Yao cultivated an evil technique, lived in a daze, and died without knowing why. Reborn in his youth, he is once again the beloved young master of the Piaomiao Sect. His eyes sting with emotion, and he vows to uncover the truth and rewrite everyone's fate against the heavens.

But for some reason, his memories of his previous life are hazy, and his body often acts without his control. If a young man who never appeared in his previous life hadn't shown up to help him break free, he might have repeated the same mistakes all over again.

This person is no ordinary individual. No one knows where he came from or what he wants. He follows Xie Yao everywhere, carries a mysterious space that lets him retrieve unknown items, ignores the restrictions in the library, and is chosen as master by a divine sword that has never accepted anyone but a cultivator. Even Xie Yao himself gradually finds he can't bear to be apart from him.

In front of others, Yu Heng always acts as if none of it concerns him, watching coldly from the sidelines and seeming utterly hard-hearted. But when it comes to Xie Yao, he is all too easily moved.

Punishment at the Cliff of Reflection:

"Young master, I got hurt for your sake."

"Then... should I put some medicine on it?"

The Sword Tomb at Xiujian Mountain:

"Yu Heng, come here. It hurts."

"Young Master Pei, I'll take Zhao Ning over first. Please make yourself at home."

The sect's trial realm:

"Yanqiu, they're all picking on me..."

"Ganging up on you? I'll avenge you!"

Xie Yao had planned to make use of Yu Heng's extraordinary indulgence and trust, gradually luring this variable into helping him change his fate. He never expected to lose his own heart in the process.

"Yu Heng, will you stay for me?" His eyes flickered as he looked at him anxiously.

"Xie Zhaoning, you don't know this, but I came here for you."

Yu Heng had originally accepted the mission simply because he was curious about Xie Zhaoning. But he never imagined that the Xie Zhaoning he'd met would actually be an amnesiac, black-sesame-filled sweet dumpling: outwardly warm as a blazing sun, bright enough to make Yu Heng unable to look away, but secretly scheming away, wanting him to do the work and wanting him for himself. Did he really think Yu Heng was a pushover he could deceive at will?

Well, since he's Xie Zhaoning, he can deceive me all he likes. At least it's me he's deceiving.

But Xie Zhaoning really wasn't what Yu Heng had imagined.

At the very least, he hadn't expected him to be so sneaky, with such a mischievous streak.

One moment, he was grilling Yu Heng about his background and making him nervous. The next, he was holding out a plate of fruit with a bright smile, asking, "Here, want some?"

Yu Heng: "..."

Xie Yao: "Come on, eat."

So you were only asking for fun?

I think fate is a wondrous thing. I never thought I would truly meet you.

Reader's Guide:

2. Fantasy setting in a fictional world. The story itself is the authority on the worldbuilding, so don't overthink it. Cultivation stages: Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Deity Transformation, Tribulation Transcendence, Ascension.

Outwardly gentle but secretly gloomy, obsessive writer seme x sweet, unsuspectingly seductive sunshine uke

Lin Xichuan has been acting a little strange lately.

He's developed an interest in his new neighbor that he shouldn't have, and it's far too intense.

Mr. Shen Yan is refined and mild-mannered, but Lin Xichuan's gaze keeps drifting to the line of his collarbone where his shirt slips open, and to a faint red mole below his thin lips.

Every move and word from Mr. Shen Yan hits all of Lin Xichuan's aesthetic preferences with uncanny precision, leaving his throat dry and making it impossible to look away.

He even keeps thinking, in a daze, of the cyber boyfriend who suddenly cut off contact four years ago.

"Have we met before?" One night, walking home together, Lin Xichuan gazed at Shen Yan's thin lips, warmly lit by the streetlamps, and couldn't help leaning closer.

Xin Yan turned his head away and smiled gently. "Xiaochuan, you're drunk."

He didn't notice the cold, shadowy glint in Xin Yan's eyes.

His mind was filled with just one thought: I want to kiss him so badly. I was so close.

Encouraged by his friends, Lin Xichuan carefully planned a confession.

After he said, "I like you," Lin Xichuan watched Xin Yan drop all pretenses and give him a wild, satisfied smile.

"Xiaochuan, do you know how long I've been waiting for this day?"

The next moment, the world spun.

Lin Xichuan rattled his chains. Rather than being afraid, he crawled over from the head of the bed and kissed Xin Yan's tense chin.

"Does this mean you've accepted my confession?"

This was completely different from what Xin Yan had expected. He thought Lin Xichuan would be afraid, angry, or even beg for mercy. The one thing he never considered was

So he ran away in a panic.

At eighteen, Xin Yan had a passionate online romance in a game.

On the day they'd arranged to meet in person, he took a slow train from the countryside and spent over ten hours getting to the city. His boyfriend never showed, claiming work had kept him away.

After asking around, Xin Yan learned the truth: the other man had only been playing with him.

He returned home heartbroken, then got into a car accident and lost his grandmother, his dreams, and his future.

Four years later, under the name Shen Yan, he had money, power, and fame, and moved in next door to Lin Xichuan.

He carefully planned every chance encounter and played the kind of man Lin Xichuan liked, waiting for him to fall completely.

He had planned everything, except for one thing:

Lin Xichuan hadn't lost his old talent for teasing people.

Every glance and every move made Xin Yan fall for him all over again, until he was going mad.

Xin Yan gritted his teeth. "Lin Xichuan, don't think I wouldn't dare do something to you..."

Pinned against the wall, Lin Xichuan tipped his head up, his eyes clear, innocent, and hopeful.

"If you agree to be my boyfriend, you can do anything you want to me, okay?"

Xin Yan really had gone mad.
