Zhen Liu thought he was simply lying in a gaming pod, playing a VR version of a “Jubensha” murder mystery.
In reality, he was solving cold cases across different worlds.
Lucien is the God of Lies and Gastronomy. His favorite pastime? Cooking the souls of murderers right at the crime scene. One day, Lucien encounters Zhen Liu—a human capable of seeing through any lie with a single glance.
• Lucien, at first: “Intriguing, human. You’ve successfully caught my attention.”
• Lucien, later: “For the sake of love, I could go my whole life without eating!”
• Lucien, even later: “Why don’t you love me yet? Is it because my recitation of the ‘Three Obediences and Four Virtues for Men’ wasn’t up to standard?”
The Dynamic:
The Human Lie Detector (MC/Shou) X The God of Lies and Gourmet who desperately tries to be a “Devoted House-Husband” (ML/Gong).
