[Two male leads + both virgins + 1v1 + happy ending] (The tags about no bride substitution and marriage contracts were automatically added by the System after signing.)
Shen Qiwu’s twin sister ran away from her wedding, but not before writing his name on the marriage contract sent by the other family, intending for him to take her place.
Shen Qiwu was at his wit’s end. He was a man, and so was Xie Wuyan, the legendary genius sword cultivator of the immortal cultivation world. How was he supposed to marry him?!
With no other choice, Shen Qiwu took the marriage contract to Xie Wuyan’s home to call off the engagement and explain that it had all been a misunderstanding. To his dismay, Xie Wuyan was convinced he was a shameless gay man who had stolen his sister’s marriage, and beat him with a whip until his skin was torn and his flesh lacerated.
Fortunately, the heavens took pity on Shen Qiwu and let him run into Xie Wuyan after the latter was injured and had lost his memory.
A gentleman always repays a debt. Shen Qiwu decided to play a trick on Xie Wuyan, claiming they were a pair of star-crossed lovers who had eloped.
Xie Wuyan: “...Is that true?”
Shen Qiwu: “Of course. You fell in love with me at first sight, and we’ve already consummated our marriage. You’re just not very good at it, or we’d already have had eight babies at once.”
Xie Wuyan: “?!” (Utterly stunned.)
Taking advantage of his fake identity, Shen Qiwu bossed Xie Wuyan around until he had him completely devoted to him.
Later, Xie Wuyan recovered his memories and nearly ran him through with a sword. Luckily, the System came to his aid, allowing Shen Qiwu to escape by the skin of his teeth.
But he hadn’t been gone long before Xie Wuyan caught him and dragged him back.
Shen Qiwu begged for mercy. “I was wrong. Please don’t kill me.”
Xie Wuyan replied kindly, “How could I ever bear to kill you, my Dao companion, my... baby?”
It's very interesting. I'm very curious about the story of the male fox and the river. It feels very interesting.
