I Picked Up a Young Man to Be My Husband [Born to Soar]

Shen Xiangran was the least favored of the Shen family’s illegitimate sons. He and his concubine mother lived like servants in the Shen household, and he had thought he could endure that life forever. But for his own selfish gain, his father was willing to sacrifice him, marrying him off to a eunuch in his seventies as a male companion. Only with his mother’s protection did Shen Xiangran manage to escape, though not without paying a terrible price. After weathering countless hardships and trials, he finally met the man who would cherish him above all else.

Shen Xiangran thought that if the first twenty years of his life had been wasted just so he could meet Gu Changyang, then he was very lucky.

At just fourteen, Gu Changyang lost both his parents. To escape his eccentric grandmother and his uncle’s family, he had no choice but to join the army. He survived countless brushes with death and finally made it home in one piece.

He had thought his life was already hard enough, and had resigned himself to spending it alone. Then, by chance, he met the person he would treasure for the rest of his life.

Watch as this young couple join hands to build a beautiful home, outwit the wicked grandmother and uncle’s family, and live happily ever after.
