Character setup:
A transmigrated top who is gentle off the bed and a total maniac in it × a stunning, delicate bottom who seems aloof but is actually clingy and a little demanding
(The top uses foul language.)
Jiang Jiu, a farmhand, married a rich family’s delicate son as his husband. The young man was frail and fair-skinned, clearly worlds apart from the people of the countryside.
For three years of marriage, Jiang Jiu never made him work in the fields or handle household chores. He kept him safely tucked away at home, doting on him and hardly daring to touch him.
He thought that after three years, he must have warmed even the coldest heart. But after one argument, he didn’t get the chance to comfort his husband right away, and the man began to doubt whether Jiang Jiu had ever truly loved him.
The man had brought up divorce countless times. This time, Jiang Jiu finally didn’t try to stop him.
From then on, they went their separate ways, owing each other nothing.
A year later, a matchmaker came to the village to find Jiang Jiu a new spouse. In passing, she mentioned his former husband, saying that trouble had befallen his family and he’d been sold to a notorious pleasure house in the county.
They had once been husband and husband, and Jiang Jiu couldn’t bear to leave him there. He decided to buy him back.
Ming Yuci was the legitimate son of a wealthy family in the county. After an accident tarnished his reputation, he had no choice but to marry a rough farmhand.
The mountain winds were harsh, and they made him sick from time to time. That rough man treated him wonderfully in every way, except… he wouldn’t touch him.
During their three years of marriage, he endured countless lonely nights, forcing himself not to seek out a man. But when he happened to catch the scent of makeup on his husband, all the grievances he had bottled up for three years came surging out.
He could tolerate his husband not touching him, but he couldn’t tolerate him going out to find someone else.
He had said “divorce” countless times, thinking the man would come to comfort him as usual. After all, in three years of marriage, his husband had never once left him to spend a long night alone in tears.
But this time, the man actually agreed.
After the divorce, his father blamed him for bringing shame on the family, and his mother had a new baby boy to care for. Later, when creditors came knocking, the family did indeed decide to hand him over to settle their debt.
Only then did he realize that those three years with his husband had been the happiest of his life.
Rather than be sold to a brothel and abused, he would rather die. He decided to end his life with a strip of white silk.
Later, once the misunderstanding was cleared up, Jiang Jiu was so overwhelmed by his husband’s sweet, honeyed voice and the way he clung to him in bed, calling him “husband” over and over, that he regretted everything until his teeth ached.
“If I’d known this was what you were really like, I should’ve fucked you senseless three years ago!”
The usually dignified, aloof young man gently bit his index finger, his eyes full of affection. “It’s not too late to have your way with me now…”
Content warnings:
A strictly monogamous couple, both physically and emotionally.
The first two chapters cover their reunion. The past is told from chapter three onward, without switching between past and present, and the flashbacks end in chapter 26.
After they reunite, the top will swear a lot at the bottom!!!!
The author has some strange preferences and likes writing the top caring for the bottom during postpartum recovery, doing everything himself, including washing his wife’s butt. If that’s not for you, read with caution. Don’t blame the author.
One more thing: the author is a feudal relic who loves melodrama, writing this to satisfy their own tastes. Seriously, read with caution!

"Reborn to Dote on the Villainous Young Master", top’s POV
On the day Gu Chengye got married, he knew his husband wasn’t an easy one to deal with.
And sure enough.
After moving in, Liu Xia either got into fights with Gu Chengye’s sister-in-law or argued with his mother. Sometimes even his five-year-old nephew ended up bawling after being hit.
Gu Chengye held in his anger and put up with him for three years, but he couldn’t take it anymore. In those three years, Liu Xia had not only driven a wedge between him and his parents, but also made their entire family unwelcome in the village.
That day, they had an argument worse than any they’d ever had. Liu Xia called Gu Chengye stupid and spineless, someone anyone could kick around. Gu Chengye called Liu Xia mean and wicked, and said no wonder his former fiance, a scholar, had dumped him.
That did it. Liu Xia went mad and scratched several bloody marks across Gu Chengye’s face. Gu Chengye cursed him as a crazy young man and told him to get back to his family!
Not long afterward, the imperial court issued an order for conscription.
Before leaving, Gu Chengye flung divorce papers at Liu Xia’s face.
Four years later, Gu Chengye returned with a lame leg. None of his family wanted to take care of him. Only his former husband came to visit every day, rain or shine, carrying a basket. Gu Chengye watched him coldly.
Liu Xia had always enjoyed kicking people when they were down. Gu Chengye wanted to see what he was after.
But he waited and waited, and Liu Xia never kicked him while he was down. Instead, the man awkwardly said, “Since no one’s looking after you anyway, why don’t we team up and live together?”
He was a cripple. What could he possibly offer Liu Xia, even if they did live together?
Once they made peace, they really did manage to build a decent life together. Gu Chengye gave his husband all the government compensation he received, but from that day on, his husband disappeared.
He searched for him for many years. Only when he was old and bedridden did his nephew finally tell him the truth.
It turned out Liu Xia had been pregnant back then. Afraid that Gu Chengye would have a child of his own and refuse to leave him the family fortune, his nephew had hired people to kidnap Liu Xia and throw him into the river to drown.
After spending decades misunderstanding his husband, Gu Chengye finally went mad when he learned the truth. He set a great fire and burned both himself and his nephew to death.
When he opened his eyes again, it was the winter of their third year of marriage, and he had just flung the divorce papers at Liu Xia’s face.
Liu Xia was crying and cursing him, calling him a monster. Gu Chengye thought that he was right. He had been blind and foolish, causing his husband and child to die in the icy river, their bodies never recovered.
How could he call himself human? He was worse than an animal.
With red-rimmed eyes, Gu Chengye pulled his husband into his arms and kissed his dry lips hard, ignoring his cries.
Thank goodness he hadn’t come back too late. There was still a chance to make things right.
Theme: Love should be spoken aloud.
Would you like to see side stories featuring the secondary couple, or perhaps a separate story for them? In the world of gay men, dating a man is considered true homosexuality; I don't think I've read anything like that before.
Brother Jiang really loves Xiao Ci.
May Jiang Ge and Xiao Ci be happy forever!
I'm hooked on [Orange Candy]! I'm hooked on [Orange Candy]! I'm hooked on [Orange Candy]! I'm hooked on [Orange Candy]!
I've finished reading it! Can I dream of another bonus chapter that continues the story? [Hugging thigh][hugging thigh] I can't get enough!!
😳Ghosts don't even need to breathe when they kiss; they can kiss for as long as they want.
Oh, so that's modern attire. I'm dying of laughter! Did my wife pull down my pants when I woke up?
🤩🤩It was actually Xiao Ci who made the first move! Well, it makes sense. In the extra chapters, the male lead protected her for two years, and even though her parents were intimidated by him, they weren't as ruthless. So naturally, Xiao Ci would be more proactive. Sigh, the personality differences between the two "what if" stories are really something to appreciate! 🐰
Is the soul of the character who can already transform into human form a modern form? Or is it not actually a soul form but something like customizing your character's appearance, allowing you to change into ancient costumes whenever you want?
🥺🥺Don't worry, even if you don't wear it now, your husband will! (What's this next extra chapter about shrinking and entering my wife's bellyband? It sounds so cheesy, I'll save it for tomorrow 😳)
