   In my opinion, this is the pinnacle of the "sickly and weak" genre. The protagonist is so weak he can't even lift a water glass, and needs the female lead to carry him while walking.

   Every male protagonist in every parallel universe is inevitably plagued by illness. In this universe, he's a nobleman coughing up blood until his lips are crimson, his silk handkerchief forever adorned with red plum blossoms; in another dimension, he's a young professor with a persistent high fever, his glasses fogged up, even the tips of his fingers holding chalk are abnormally flushed; if you jump to another timeline, you'll see him wrapped in blood-stained bandages, his pale face leaning against ruins, yet still smiling gently and brokenly…—this man has taken "sickly aesthetics" to its extreme. Coughing up blood? That's standard practice. Long, slender fingers cover his thin lips, a trickle of crimson seeping through, making his skin appear even paler. Fainting? It has to be a beautiful fainting spell. Either he collapses on a rain-soaked cobblestone path, his black hair disheveled and plastered to his forehead; or he falls from the podium in full view of everyone, only to be caught in the heroine's arms. Is there really no illness to speak of? It's okay—let him get burned by reagents in the lab, his wrists wrapped in bandages peeking out from under his white coat; or jump into an icy lake to save someone in the snow, shivering as he's pulled out, his eyelashes frosted; or at the very least, have a high fever, deliriously grabbing the female lead's sleeve, his eyes red from the fever but still forcing himself to say "I'm fine"... In every world, Chen Mingzhe is demonstrating with his life what it means to be "the sicker you are, the more handsome you are." Pale is his base color, brokenness is his badge of honor. When he leans against the headboard and smiles weakly, when you know he's dying but still gently comforts you—that extreme beauty is simply breathtaking. So, come and unlock the sickly beauty you want, is it coughing up blood until his eyes are red? Having a high fever to the point of delirium? Or forcing himself to stay strong after a serious injury? No matter which one, he's so beautiful you can't take your eyes off him.

    Reader note

    This is a newly released story about a sickly character (warning: ongoing). The male lead was poisoned by the original female lead, leaving him impotent, paralyzed in both legs, suffering from stomach pain and full-body spasms. He's extremely insecure and craves the female lead's love, yet dares not hope for it. Warning: This story is abusive, both physically and mentally. The female lead is a straight woman who doesn't understand what the male lead truly wants or wants to say. She often says things she shouldn't and doesn't speak, leading to numerous misunderstandings between them (one-sided abuse of the male lead). If you don't mind this, you can read it. The male lead's character is quite good—insecure yet beautiful. While the female lead is a bit frustrating, the author's main goal is to abuse the male lead, so her silence is understandable; after all, if she spoke, the abuse wouldn't be so intense.
