Chosen One

Pei Chengyin, a wealthy young master with ample leisure time, suddenly joined a declining sect as the Senior apprentice brother, primarily for relaxation. Life was so pleasant that it should have continued this way. Then one day, he stood before his four junior apprentice brothers and sisters and heard the voices of the systems residing within them, all uttering the same phrase: [Your mission is to make the Senior apprentice brother fall for you.] From that day on, Pei Chengyin had to face the clumsy advances of his junior apprentices, and his leisurely days were gone forever. Just as life became unbearable, their troublesome master brought back a new junior apprentice brother from the foot of the mountain. Cold-natured, burdened with a deep-seated vendetta, and utterly disinterested in romance. A lightbulb went off in Pei Chengyin’s head: Wasn’t this the perfect shield? Thus, when the system assigned his junior apprentices the task: [Hold the Senior apprentice brother’s hand], Pei Chengyin, to show that his hands were occupied, immediately grabbed the hand of the junior apprentice brother, Shi Baoyue. Shi Baoyue: “…” When the system tasked the junior apprentices with: [Create an opportunity to spend a night with the Senior apprentice brother], Pei Chengyin promptly locked himself in a room with Shi Baoyue. Shi Baoyue: “…” After all was said and done, the one whose heart began to flutter was Shi Baoyue. Shi Baoyue was clever and adept at reading situations, never overestimating himself. Faced with Pei Chengyin, who thought himself cunning but was actually a bumbling do-gooder full of flaws, Shi Baoyue, before falling for him, coldly lectured his Senior apprentice brother: “Is rejecting others so hard? Next time they try to take advantage of you, just turn your head left, then right, repeat three times. If you’re unwilling, just say no. Stop dragging me into your mess.” After falling for him, his stance changed: “I won’t refuse him. So what if he’s always causing trouble? I’ll always go to his rescue.” White-on-the-outside-black-on-the-inside gong × Black-on-the-outside-black-on-the-inside shou An immortal who fell from grace, undying for millennia.
