Go Keep Him Company

In the fifth year of Yuan Mian and his boyfriend Fu Tianle's secret relationship, Fu Tianle put an arm around him and said with a grin, “I heard Hu Guangtong likes men. Why don't you go keep him company?” “If you make him happy, I'll close this deal, and then my family won't be able to boss me around and criticize me anymore.” Yuan Mian looked at him and couldn't help smiling too. He grabbed his phone and walked away without looking back. ** After not hearing from Yuan Mian for quite a while, Fu Tianle couldn't take it anymore and went to see a friend they had in common. The friend gave him a disdainful look. “Why are you looking for Yuan Mian? Not to be rude, but he's already with that guy. Don't be so clueless.” Fu Tianle felt as if he'd been struck by lightning. When had they broken up?! “Who is he with? How is that possible... Yuan Mian loves me so much!” “It's the one he secretly had a crush on before he fell in love with you.” “What, you didn't know? It's Hu Guangtong. They're about to get married.” *A short story of tens of thousands of words. The basic premise is that a spoiled, entitled gong “gives away” the shou, only for him to end up with the shou's unrequited love. *Free while serialized, then available to subscribers after completion.

His family is poor, and his parents favor everyone else because they think he's just a country boy. At long last, he marries a husband and they fall deeply in love. But they barely get to enjoy their happy life before his husband hits his head in an accident. When he wakes up, he's forgotten Tuan Yun completely and wants nothing to do with him. “I was the Earl's legitimate second son. You're nothing but a crude country bumpkin. How could we possibly be a match?” “You say you saved my life? How do I know you didn't take advantage of me because I was well dressed? Marry you? In your dreams. Never.” Still, unable to withstand the criticism from outsiders, he takes Tuan Yun back to the estate. But that only makes him despise Tuan Yun, treating him as worthless and refusing to spare him a second glance. Without his husband's love, and forced to endure the scorn of everyone in the Earl's household day after day, Tuan Yun is at least fed and clothed. He only wants to live quietly and unnoticed. Unexpectedly, the household plans to demote him from wife to concubine on the grounds that he has no children, then sell him off. Tuan Yun is so anxious he bursts into tears. What can he do?! ** Ji Zhiwei dislikes his country husband so much that he passes by his home for days without going in. One day, he's suddenly summoned back. Everyone congratulates him on his virility and tells him his wife is carrying twins. He knows he has a congenital deficiency: he can have sex, but he can't impregnate anyone. Furious, he nearly falls over. When he wakes again, his memories return, and all the love he shared with Tuan Yun comes flooding back. His eyes bloodshot after a sleepless night, the next day he brings expensive gifts to his cousin from the marquis's household, Cui Jianying, a man everyone fears and calls the Emperor's hunting dog. “Tuan Yun is the one I love. I can raise his children, but I absolutely won't let the adulterer get away. Help me find him, and I'll agree to any terms.” His cousin lights up at the words. “Really?” “Then marry your wife to me.” Cui Jianying clasps his hands together in praise. “Cousin, you truly have a keen eye. You saw right away that I'm the adulterer.” *In this story, the country boy is a man who can give birth, like a ge'er husband. Theme: If you don't cherish someone, someone else will.
