Fang Mianyu had only taken a nap. When he opened his eyes, he was standing on an unfamiliar street, with nothing on him to prove his identity. He'd become an undocumented person.
Raised in comfort since childhood, he struggled through a few miserable days in another world before he finally couldn't take it anymore.
Based on what he knew and the people he'd encountered, he guessed that he'd landed in an old-school power-up novel he'd read before.
The protagonist, Xiao Lin, had an uncaring father and a mother who didn't love him. He built himself up from nothing in a small county, eventually becoming a business mogul with power over everything.
Most importantly, he was loyal and devoted to the people around him, treating them all well.
His desire to escape a life of hardship won out, and Fang Mianyu tracked down Xiao Lin, who was still working as a mechanic at an auto repair shop. He'd only meant to get a meal out of him, but in a moment of impulsiveness, he blurted out that he was Xiao Lin's future wife.
Fang Mianyu: I'm doomed.
Xiao Lin: ...

Xiao Lin had fought his way up from the bottom in a small county, building his business empire one step at a time. He never expected his most trusted brother to betray him on his thirtieth birthday. When he opened his eyes again, he was eighteen.
At this point, he was still foolishly working as a mechanic at an auto repair shop, earning money to support that awful couple in their old age.
How naive and ridiculous.
Before he could get to work taking down the people he hated and making his move, a pretty young master showed up and said he was Xiao Lin's future wife.
Xiao Lin: ? Since when did I have a wife?
Believing that knowing your enemy is the key to winning a hundred battles, Xiao Lin kept the pampered young master named Fang Mianyu by his side, just to find out what kind of game he was playing.
He had his own pace and absolutely wouldn't let Fang Mianyu distract him.
Buying Fang Mianyu clothes, finding him a new place to live, and granting all his requests were just part of the plan. He was only waiting for Fang Mianyu to show his true colors.
But the longer they spent together, the more guilty Fang Mianyu felt. After all, he wasn't actually Xiao Lin's future wife!
One dark and windy night, he decided to run away.
He didn't get far. Xiao Lin caught him.
Xiao Lin's expression darkened, his eyes reddening. "Baby, why'd you stop playing the future-spouses game with me? Did you get bored of it?"
Airheaded beauty, spoiled shou Fang Mianyu x "I have my own pace," max-level lovesick gong Xiao Lin

PS: I actually meant to write a small-county story, but the way I packaged it makes it hard to tell.
No dreaming, no breaking up, no switching roles!
