Silent Ancient Manuscripts

share time: 2026-03-02 12:32:19

Lin Xiaoman, an old book restorer at a publishing house, binds to the "Ancient Manuscript Restoration System" through a missing-page 《Xuanwei Record》—restoring ancient books unlocks immortal cultivation skills and modern props! She plans to pay off debts with the system but attracts Lu Zhao, an ancient book spirit who claims she took his "life book" and insists on staying to "supervise" her. While dealing with Lu Zhao's tsundere complaints (like finding her milk tea too sweet, "like honey-soaked paper"), she causes oolongs with her skills (blowing off an aunt's wig while cleaning cat hair with "ancient dust removal"). Worse, Lu Zhao "comes alive" from the book and vows to "guard" her as an "unqualified restorer"! In their sweet, funny daily life, the secret of 《Xuanwei Record》 unfolds—it's a key linking ancient and modern times, and Lin's past life is connected to Lu Zhao. On her counterattack journey of immortal cultivation, they go from mutual dislike to affection, with the system's occasional "divine help" (restoring 《Peony Pavilion》 unlocks a "love talk buff," making Lu say, "You make me want to read you more than any ancient book"). A love story "in old books" quietly buds.
