The pre-exam burst of inspiration was so... good... I... want... to... write...
Swordsmanship Supreme Lin Jingtian failed his tribulation, his body was destroyed, and he transmigrated into another world as a disabled male insect named Innocent.
Even more absurdly, a strange entity called the Son-in-Law System was bound to his soul.
Newly arrived male insect Innocent: A man should stand tall and proud in this world. How could he ever rely on his wife?
Innocent, who raked in rewards from the System and made a fortune: Living off my wife is amazing! I'm doing it! I'm the son-in-law, and proud of it!

Lah was the insect race's newly appointed marshal, but he was manipulated into marrying a disabled male insect.
He had no expectations, and simply thought of it as acquiring another expensive ornament.
But Innocent kept a low profile, doted on his partner, and even made those who mocked him look utterly foolish without seeming to lift a finger.
Lah thought he might have fallen in love with him.

When Lah's former subordinates rebelled, he went to the front lines himself, only to be ambushed and trapped in a desperate situation.
As his mental sea teetered on the brink of collapse, the last hazy thought that crossed his mind was Innocent's quiet profile.
In the next instant, the male insect tore through space, stepped across the void, and appeared on the battlefield.
Amidst an army of thousands, Innocent lifted the weakened Lah and unleashed terrifying mental power that enveloped the entire star region. He spoke, each word clear: "Anyone who touches my male consort dies."
At that moment, the empire trembled, and all beings bowed their heads.
As he drifted toward unconsciousness, Lah used the last of his strength to clutch Innocent's clothes.

[Bonus Scene]
The entire insect race held its breath, waiting to see how Innocent, the male insect who had revealed terrifying power overnight and upended all they knew, would treat his male consort, Lah.
Public opinion was ablaze with speculation, but no insect knew that the supreme male insect, now feared across the stars, was being pressed against the bed by his marshal male consort.
"The marshal is being rather forward today."
Innocent smiled and lifted the insect's chin, then gave him a gentle kiss on the lips.
"I am."
Lah's ears flushed red, his gaze fixed on his partner as though he could see no one else.
"I want you to take me... and I want to have you, too."

[Reader's Guide]
1. The pairing is Innocent (top) x Lah (bottom).
2. Unrestrained, domineering top x capable, quiet, devoted-dog bottom. They are very much in love with each other (probably). If this isn't your thing, please don't force yourself to read it~
3. I'll add anything else that needs spoilers here once I think of it.
4. Expected to start updating in the fourth quarter of 2026. The exact date depends on how much I've written in advance~
