The Third Young Master’s Bride, Married to Bring Him Luck, Has Grown Up

[Alternate Republican-era setting, eleven-year age gap, domineering traditional patriarch × sweet, obedient darling] [Fake uncle and nephew + male pregnancy and running away with the baby] [Reader advisory at the end of the blurb] At eighteen, Qiao Yu took his younger sister's place and married into the Shen family, to bring good fortune to the gravely ill Third Young Master Shen. That day, dressed in bright red wedding attire, he was escorted to the bedside. When Shen Yunzhang learned his age, he flew into a rage, demanding that his parents let Qiao Yu go. He even smashed the jade ruyi used to lift the bridal veil. Even so, Qiao Yu didn't get to leave. Because Shen Yunzhang didn't recover. Later, when Shen Yunzhang did recover, Qiao Yu could no longer leave. . To keep outsiders from learning about his male spouse, Master Shen arranged for Qiao Yu to become the eldest young master's adopted son. Shen Yunzhang refused to acknowledge the arrangement and continued doing as he pleased. Wherever Qiao Yu hid, he followed. When Qiao Yu moved out of the courtyard, Shen Yunzhang brazenly moved into his nephew's bedroom in full view of everyone. Even when Qiao Yu went to school, he couldn't escape Shen Yunzhang's control: Shen Yunzhang donated 100,000 silver dollars and became the school's honorary principal. Qiao Yu thought he would never escape Shen Yunzhang's grasp. But not long afterward, political turmoil broke out, and Shen Yunzhang was too busy to look after himself. Qiao Yu seized the chance to board an ocean liner, and the two lost contact from then on. Four years later. A new doctor, Qiao, joined St. El's Mission Hospital. He had returned from studying overseas, and was skilled in medicine and handsome, with delicate features. He was only twenty-six, yet already had a child over three years old. When asked where he lived or whether he was married, he never answered, remaining cool and aloof. When people discussed the big news that “the newly appointed head of the chamber of commerce is searching the whole city for someone,” he showed little interest. That day, he finished an operation. Though his shift was over, the hospital was empty, and the silence in the corridors made him uneasy. He hurried upstairs, went into his office, and picked up his sleeping child. Suddenly, the lights came on. He turned and saw Shen Yunzhang, his eyes dark and unreadable. [Reader Advisory] 1. The bottom was already eighteen when he married; male pregnancy. 2.

Next Novel: My Ex-Husband Went Through So Much for Me [Gentle, controlling, fatherly top × prickly, soft-hearted, pampered bottom] Qin Shixian always thought his ex-husband was the most good-natured person in the world. Even though he knew Qin had run away from an arranged marriage and deliberately married a poor guy to spite his parents, he calmly accepted Qin's request to marry him. He fulfilled his marital duties as Qin asked, took care of him like a baby, and in the end accepted his heartless departure without a word. The day after leaving Shen Jiming, Qin Shixian already missed him. But he forced himself not to get in touch first. He thought indignantly: Why didn't Shen Jiming try to stop him? Why had he called him “baby” and fed him fruit the day before, then calmly accepted his impulsive departure the next? Didn't he say he loved him most?! He kept waiting for Shen Jiming to call, but the call never came. He decided to forget that penniless man. Three years later. One day, Qin Shixian's agent put him on a variety show. As luck would have it, filming took place near Shen Jiming's tea plantation. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw a familiar figure walking toward him. He turned his face away and pretended not to recognize him. He swore he wouldn't say a single word to Shen Jiming throughout the whole shoot, and would treat him like a stranger. But a few days later, he twisted his ankle, and before he could even cry out in pain, Shen Jiming had already swept him up in his arms... He asked in a muffled voice, “Why are you here?” Shen Jiming carried him to bed, his tone as gentle as ever. “Because I missed you so much, baby.” After the show aired, news of Qin Shixian's divorce spread like wildfire. The internet was flooded with claims that “a poor guy married into a rich family,” leaving Qin furious. He was about to issue a statement when the online discussion suddenly died down. A video interview on a financial news channel had caught netizens' attention. How strange. Why did the newly appeared head of the Shen Group, making his first public appearance after a family inheritance battle... look exactly like Qin Shixian's ex-husband? Qin Shixian stared at his ex-husband in surprise. Only then did he notice that the man seemed a little different from the way he had been three years ago. Theme: Education is the foundation of success
