A Woman Reborn as a Man: I’m a Young Swordsman Loved by a Sick Fox

[Woman transmigrates into a man ➕ carefree, amorous young swordsman VS sickly, ascetic young master from an elite family ➕ devoted and steady 1v1 romance, standing together through hardship and growing closer over time. They stay together, always.]

Qin Yanshu is the sole heir of the Qin clan’s main branch. Though born to a noble family, he has been sickly since childhood. His family believes in destiny, so they find a young boy from a martial sect to keep him company, hoping to borrow the boy’s healthy, long-lived fortune and extend Qin Yanshu’s life.

At first, bedridden and gravely ill, he only thought that having someone who could save him would be enough. The boy wasn’t a person to him, just a remedy for his illness.

But the one who came was An Yan. How could it be An Yan?

An Yan, dancing with his sword among spring blossoms, his sleeves fluttering. An Yan, riding out on horseback through a snowy winter landscape. An Yan, laughing brightly, with compassion always shining in his eyes.

Even though Qin Yanshu considered himself a noble young master of incomparable status, An Yan was someone he felt he could never catch up with or hold on to.

Later, Qin Yanshu grew afraid. He feared that he really was draining the years from An Yan’s life, that he truly was ruining An Yan’s carefree, happy existence. He feared that his own rotten, filthy heart would be exposed to An Yan’s impossibly pure eyes.

He never dared to say the word love.

All he dared to do was clutch at An Yan’s pity and keep him trapped in his arms.

An Yan: In my previous life, I was a modern woman who was decent in every way. In this life, I was born a man and ended up in a martial arts world? And I have a childhood friend who can bankroll all my martial arts training with an endless supply of gold?

Heaven has finally opened its eyes and decided to let me enjoy myself!

Huh? What did you say?

I spend every day looking after my sensitive, fragile, depressed childhood friend, trying to save him and get him to see how beautiful the world is.

And he fell in love with me?
