I Gave You My All, and Now You Tell Me the Time Travel Was Fake?!

Read

Lin Yan, an innocent and slightly clueless soon-to-be graduate of an agricultural university, suddenly finds himself in an unknown ancient era.

He has no idea which dynasty it is, how he got here, or how to get back.

For the first three days, Lin Yan treads carefully, paranoid about his new reality—until he stumbles upon a kid at his doorstep.

The kid is handsome, adorable, hardworking, obedient, and just all-around lovable.

Other than having a bottomless stomach, he has no flaws whatsoever.

Who wouldn’t want to take in such a well-behaved child?

Everything goes smoothly—except Lin Yan feels a little anxious every time he sneaks in a round of mobile gaming…

Until one day, he gets caught red-handed.

Lin Yan and the kid lock eyes.

The calm and collected kid speaks first:

“奇变偶不变。” (Odd changes, even remains unchanged.)

…???

A fellow transmigrant?! Lin Yan nearly bursts into tears.

Without hesitation, he lays his heart bare, desperate to recognize this soul-traveling kid as his long-lost little brother.

• The kid wants to play on the phone? Sure—play all night.
• The kid craves hotpot? Of course—let’s go full yin-yang broth.
• The kid wants to visit the city? No problem—off to the capital we go!

Once in the capital, Lin Yan opens a small restaurant and builds a thriving business with his strangely modern yet insanely delicious dishes.

Life is good. Everything is on track.

…Until one day, the kid’s emperor brother tricks Lin Yan into the palace.

There, he drops a bombshell:

“The whole ‘time traveler’ thing? He made it up.”

Lin Yan feels like he’s been struck by lightning.

Wait, hold on—
I gave you my all. I poured my heart out.
And now you’re telling me the whole time-travel thing was just some bullsh*t lie?!
