Does the Chief Executive Need Comfort Too?

When Lu Zai first took office as Chief Executive, two topics were discussed more than anything else: first, how had a third-tier esper become Chief Executive? He was a notorious defective, at that. Second, that excessively beautiful face.

The reality was that in less than two years in office, half of the 90,000 espers in the capital jurisdiction served under him and obeyed his every command; the other half were locked in prison with unlimited sentences.

In New Era Year 237, a catastrophic geomagnetic storm exceeding G5 swept across the globe. Esper energy went out of control, and the world teetered on the brink of ruin. Chief Executive Lu Zai was entrusted with a mission in the crisis: escort a top-secret S-class asset to headquarters.

The S-class asset himself, Yan Chenqi: I can't believe it! My wife came to pick me up in person?!

Wait! Why is my wife wearing a diamond ring?!!

Mutants, core crystals, special forces, the Abyss, the Pangu Project... Retired officer Yan Chenqi had nothing to do with any of that anymore. Now, all he did was breathe and follow celebrities. His one and only hobby was the virtual idol Zed.

But everyone knew that Zed's face was modeled after the terrifying Chief Executive Lu. They didn't dare make it too similar, of course. Even a 30 percent resemblance was enough to make him an internet sensation.

Then the door was smashed open, and the good life came to an end. Not only was Yan Chenqi's fan shrine, packed with merch of his wife, burned down by the wife himself, but Yan Chenqi also got a kick from the Chief Executive right in the face.

Yan Chenqi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, pressed his tongue against his cheek, and grinned cheekily. "Chief Executive, did kicking me hurt your foot? I'll rub it for you tonight. No need to thank me."

Everyone present: Did we hear that right?! Is he tired of living?!!

"Only I can soothe your genetic sequence," Yan Chenqi insisted. "Your man can't help you, but I can. If you don't believe me, you can try me."

Just as everyone thought the S-class asset was surely doomed, Lu Zai lifted his chin slightly and said coldly, "Sure. Just don't let your legs give out tomorrow and get in the way of the mission."

A cocky, handsome top who hears all kinds of bad things about his wife but brainwashes himself into falling completely in love in no time 😍 His mouth is as infuriating as his face. X A cool, porcelain-skinned beauty bottom with power and status, relentlessly pursued by the whole world ❤️ High attack, low defense, and always one step away from getting wrecked.

Yan Chenqi X Lu Zai

[Reading Guide]

1. Both are virgins, happy ending, strong characters on both sides. The top mistakenly thinks the bottom has someone, and while pursuing him, dreams of being the other man and competes with everyone for him.

2. No secondary couples. Some side characters or passersby will have one-sided feelings for the leads. Lots of male competition and plenty of people resent the moon. The bottom only returns the top's feelings, so proceed with caution if that bothers you. Not suited to readers with strict character preferences. Feel free to leave.

3. An alternate-world post-apocalyptic esper novel, with a massive outbreak of chuunibyou. Please don't read it as real life or start flame wars. Feel free to ship the couple and discuss the plot~

Theme: Never give up. Fight and fight to claim what's yours.
