Zheng Shanci transmigrated into a novel—and became the cannon fodder husband of the villainous supporting role, Yu Lanyi.... more>>

In the original plot, due to a twist of fate, the original Zheng Shanci married Yu Lanyi. After moving to a small county town, Yu Lanyi constantly ridiculed and looked down on his husband. In the end, the husband couldn’t take it anymore and conspired with his close confidant to kill Yu Lanyi.

Now, Zheng Shanci finds himself caught in a scandal at a banquet—locked in the same room as Yu Lanyi. Yu Lanyi had planned to trap the male lead in a compromising situation with himself but ended up locking in the wrong person. With his sleeve covering his face, he glares at Zheng Shanci furiously.

Amidst everyone’s accusations, Zheng Shanci grits his teeth and says:

“I’ll marry him.”

Zheng Shanci feels bitterness in his mouth. This person is the definition of a drama queen—a pampered noble heir of the Marquis household, arrogant and spoiled. Meanwhile, he himself is a third-rank scholar from a humble background, just about to take his post in a small county.

They were to marry in the capital and then head off together to the rural county.

Zheng Shanci: “…Well, this is going to be a wonderfully chaotic life.”

***

Yu Lanyi, the legitimate young master of the Marquis of Changyang, is of noble birth. He prefers someone handsome, well-born, refined, and powerful. At first glance, he sets his sights on the male lead and tries to create a scandal at the banquet—arranging a situation where two men are caught alone together. But he locks in the wrong guy.

Now, to protect his reputation, he has no choice but to reluctantly marry this poor scholar.

Yu Lanyi: “But… he’s only a third-rank scholar!”

And he’s expected to move to some remote county after the wedding?! He doesn’t want to suffer—he wants the good life! So Yu Lanyi leaves the capital in tears.

Day 1 in the county: He falls ill from the climate.

Day 2: He sees the poverty and accidentally eats a mouthful of sand.

Day 3: He’s already withered.

Weak and bedridden, Yu Lanyi lies in despair, no energy left. Yet his cheap husband is full of enthusiasm, checking in on him, behaving properly, and even refraining from sharing a bed.

Yu Lanyi: “???”

Soon, Yu Lanyi realizes this cheap husband of his might actually have potential.

Everyone thought Yu Lanyi’s life was over—married off to the backwater countryside. They all mocked him. But in the end, every single one of them got a slap in the face. <<less

Qin Zhaoshen woke up one day to find that he and his lifelong nemesis had a child together. Even more absurdly, this happened after his nemesis went bankrupt, and Qin stuck by him through thick and thin. Their passionate love became legendary, a model couple admired by everyone.... more>>

Qin Zhaoshen: “What? No way. Let Heaven bear witness—I won’t admit defeat!”

Qin Zhaoshen and his nemesis Fu Quezhi had been at each other’s throats since childhood. Then one day, Qin Zhaoshen woke up…

Five years had passed, and he and Fu Quezhi had a three-year-old child.

“Daddy?” Qin Shu looked up at Qin Zhaoshen with sparkling eyes.

Qin Zhaoshen nearly fainted. He was married—to his nemesis?! He must have lost his mind. But seeing the eager, expectant eyes of Qin Shu, he couldn’t bring himself to say the word divorce. And so began his domestic life with wife and child. Only—

“You know my situation. I’ll sleep on the sofa. You can have the bedroom,” Qin Zhaoshen said aggrievedly, hugging his little blanket.

Fu Quezhi scoffed, “There’s nothing about you I haven’t seen, young master.”

“You—you shameless jerk!” Qin Zhaoshen blushed furiously. His nemesis had become unbelievably shameless over the years.

Looking at the apartment that was three times smaller than his old home, Qin Zhaoshen stood at the door in disbelief and utter resistance: “I went bankrupt too?!”

Fu Quezhi replied, “Not bankrupt—kicked out of the family.”

That’s even worse! The three of them—father, father, and child—had been thrown out into the street. What kind of cruel life was this? Qin Zhaoshen felt like crying.

He wanted to bury himself in Fu Quezhi’s arms and sob. Wait—why did he want to bury himself in Fu Quezhi’s arms?! Qin Zhaoshen was deeply shocked by his own thoughts.

⸻

Hi everyone, I’m Qin Zhaoshen. I currently have amnesia—and a little secret: I transmigrated into a novel. And my “wife”? A fake young master. Sob sob sob. How are we supposed to survive as a family?

⸻

Fu Quezhi had a cold, moonlike appearance and a calm demeanor. He always thought the crybaby next door was weak and pathetic.

Until the home he’d lived in for nineteen years became someone else’s. Overnight, he went from paradise to hell—and only one person stood by him, shielding him, turning a dead-end into a path forward.

On the day they got married, Qin Zhaoshen only said one thing: “I do.” And Fu Quezhi’s heart thumped uncontrollably.

Qin Zhaoshen: “My nemesis is kind of amazing!”

Fu Quezhi: “My crybaby is adorable!” <<less

Vain, beauty-obsessed bottom (uke) × Military genius, transmigrated, scoundrel top (seme)... more>>

Xie Qiaoyu is the illegitimate son of a prominent family in a small county. With striking, radiant looks and a strong sense of vanity, he is determined never to become a concubine like his father once was. He dreams of marrying an aspiring scholar who will pass the imperial exams and provide for him. But that scholar dumps him halfway through—for his legitimate older brother.

Now left enduring his half-brother’s smugness, Xie Qiaoyu sets out once again in search of a dependable scholar… and unexpectedly finds himself drawn to a fallen noble, a so-called “good-for-nothing.”

At first, he mocks the declining Wan family, “Serves the Wan family right.”

Until he meets Wan Mingji—unkempt yet handsome, dressed in mourning attire.

“Mourning clothes make the man,” and Xie Qiaoyu’s heart skips a beat.

Quietly, he starts approaching Wan Mingji and asks, “Do you have any plans to sit for the imperial exam?”

After all, even a scoundrel could earn a degree under his supervision.

Wan Mingji, “No.”

Xie Qiaoyu, ”…No wonder you’re single.”

If he weren’t just a concubine’s son, with his looks alone, many would’ve lined up to marry him in this town. But alas—he is just a concubine’s son.

Now that he’s running around with a broke scoundrel, everyone mocks him.

And then… they all get slapped in the face.

—

Wan Mingji, once a dashing young talent, returned home after his studies to find his family in ruins and his name disgraced. Everyone avoided him. When he saw the now-grown, stunningly beautiful Xie Qiaoyu, he thought nothing of it—he was a straight man, with zero interest in pretty boys.

Xie Qiaoyu kept helping him anyway. Wan Mingji figured maybe they could just be “brothers.”

Wan Mingji, sincerely, “Let’s be brothers.”

Xie Qiaoyu, silently.

I want you to be my husband, and you call me your brother? Who treats a ge’er like their brother?! I’m going to kill you.

Xie Qiaoyu, grinding his teeth, “You’re going to die alone.”

Until one day, Wan Mingji sees a dirt-smudged Xie Qiaoyu up close, noses almost touching…

Next thing he knows, he’s standing at the gates of the Xie family home—to propose marriage.

Later, with fingers laced together, Wan Mingji asks his subordinates, “Family members can accompany soldiers, right?”

—

Even after marriage, Xie Qiaoyu remains hopelessly vain. He gets envious easily when others seem to be doing better than him—but just thinking of his husband makes it all sweet again.

“Wan Mingji, I want to eat a tiger!”

The next day, sure enough, he eats a tiger. <<less
