MC tends to think about getting revenge on ML's ex husband but it never happened. Or if MC gets entangled with OG's family or the inferior female who mightve pestered him again—who is, btw, quite audacious in this setting coz he managed string along the poor OG. It couldve also continued to create a miracle where ML couldve healed his body and gone back to the army.

MC (gong) was originally "pranked" by his cousin to be matched with ML (shou), the 'thrown out' concubine of Shi, in the government's marriage system. MC already had good feelings (not romantic... yet) for ML who saved his drowning new body lol

Humorous reversal that the male zerg are basically equivalent to scholarly/weaksauce men, while the female zerg are equivalent to buff/gym men.

The entire traditional setting of the zerg wasn't really necessary. The author could have had the MC treat past-ab*sed ML in a better society without needing the entire background emphasis of how the MC was literally the only "male" zerg not out to build a harem, actually putting in effort and treating his partner like a person and not just a tool or s*ave. The main character development could have progressed just as well without hinting everywhere how the MC was so special, so unique, and actually "kind" to his spouse...

MC is presented as the ONE exception to all other male zerg who expect their spouses to be servants 24/7 or insert "accepted" domestic violence and institutionalized r*pe... wow how romantic!!

he even let's ML's son take his last name

Basically, due to some shenanigans, ML becomes worried that ML is looking at other female zergs and makes a post on a forum asking for advice. The outcome of it all is pretty silly, and ML basically attempts to seduce ML using shitty advice from the forum. Its all really funny, and gets resolved when ML directly asks MC if he's been talking to others, and MC answers truthfully

when MC said, "Just imagine, a perfect figure and slightly youthful male sitting on your body, while holding his chest, rubbing the tip of his breast, who can stand this"..... I found this very sexy.

>ML is an orphan, ab*sed in his relationship with nobody to lean on + a child to carry for

>MC doesn't have to worry about money too much due to his heritage and social position

>Alt. World's common sense of extreme gender disparity + polygamy vs original world's common sense of human equality and monogamy (even considering the downfall of morality with the apocalypse)

So any form of small kindness of MC will be taken like god's grace for ML who knew nothing but harshness.

Although ML is MC's type, them getting together at the beginning felt more like out of sympathy for his life saviour, the ML.

Then again, there's no "dating" phase in alt. World, so that's really the only way for them to get closer.

I didn’t expect that the ML would be a divorcee with a kid and that makes this story so different!! I love how even though the ML and MC’s relationship was fast, it didn’t seem like it at all! I wish there was more to their story!! More!!!!!

One thing that troubled me very little was that I was a little confused with the gender setting at first because there’s “male” “female” and “inferior female”. The “inferior female” is just called “inferior” because they can’t give birth but they are definitely more favoured than the “female (male that can give birth)
