A Vase, but Her Husband Is a Protagonist from Qidian

It is rumored that Lin Wenzhou, the foremost figure in Penglai of the Upper Realm, once had a deceased dao companion in the mortal world. He remained chaste for her and lived as a widower for a thousand years.

Ye Shenqing, his dao companion, was a pretty but useless ornament with a terrible personality.

He opened and closed his eyes and found himself transmigrated a thousand years into the future, in the Upper Realm, reduced to a frail mortal bullied by everyone.

When he learned that his down-on-his-luck husband, whose face had been ruined, had transformed into a handsome, otherworldly powerhouse

Ye Shenqing dropped his fragile, delicate act and started kicking and punching people of every age and gender in public, cursing out everyone in the Upper Realm as he shouted his poor husband's name:

"Lin Wenzhou, you dead man, are you going to do something about this or not?!"

Lin Wenzhou's sword reacted faster than everyone could think.

The island master of Penglai, who had long since stopped concerning himself with worldly affairs, met Ye Shenqing's gaze. To everyone's astonishment, he touched his wounds and said, "Point."

Wherever Ye Shenqing pointed, the sword struck.

A thousand years ago, Ye Shenqing and Lin Wenzhou were so poor they couldn't get enough to eat, and shared a thin blanket to keep warm.

A thousand years later, Ye Shenqing had grown tired of delicacies. Watching Lin Wenzhou wash his hands with immortal dew, one drop of which took a thousand years to collect, he fell into thought.

"We should remember how hard it is to come by every meal. Aren't we being a little too extravagant?"

Lin Wenzhou ran his fingers over the calluses that had nearly disappeared from Ye Shenqing's palm, then silently handed him the keys to the treasury.

As they went along, people bowed their heads and divine beasts bore their carriage. Standing before Lin Wenzhou's outrageously vast fortune, Ye Shenqing fell into thought.

Blessed lands, spirit gardens, spiritual veins, and mountains of resources of every kind.

Ye Shenqing closed his eyes, opened them again, and found himself winning without lifting a finger.

Lin Wenzhou is a textbook male lead from a classic cultivation novel, but his devotion to his dao companion has taken over his brain.

A thousand years ago, Lin Wenzhou lost his family, his looks, and everything else. To save him from despair, Ye Shenqing was willing to sacrifice himself and enter a sham marriage with him.

Back then, everyone said Ye Shenqing was ugly and unlucky, unfit for polite company. Filled with guilt, Lin Wenzhou swore he would treat him well for the rest of his life.

A thousand years later, Ye Shenqing was "reborn" in the Upper Realm and grabbed Lin Wenzhou by the collar, demanding that he take responsibility. "These people say I'm crude and mean. Are you going to do something about it or not? A day as husband and wife is worth a hundred days of devotion. You don't want to take responsibility, is that it?"

Later, Ye Shenqing grabbed his ear and tearfully told him that their marriage had been fake, so he no longer needed to take responsibility.

Lin Wenzhou brushed back his hair, revealing the red mark, then lowered his eyes and smiled. "How could I? Our Shenqing is the most loyal and beautiful person in the world. I can't bear to let you go."

People say Shenqing is now uncouth in every way, while Lin Wenzhou used to be ugly in every way. A thousand years later, reunited after losing each other, they are still a match made in heaven. ①

A delicate immortal flower in public, a vengeful soul in private: the bottom.

An icy, textbook male lead in public, a dao-companion devotee who lets his partner do his thinking in private: the top.

Quoted from "Nanqu: Four Pieces of Jade: Romance"

Reader's guide: The bottom is a pretty ornament, but he won't stay one forever. This is pure wish fulfillment, a stress-relief story with a laid-back, everyday feel.

The bottom has a very short fuse. With someone backing him up, he goes berserk in an instant.

The top is a devoted partner who lets his companion do his thinking. If anyone hurts the bottom, he goes berserk in an instant.

Their marriage began as a sham, but the feelings were real. They're both hopeless romantics, but the bottom takes a moment to realize that what he's feeling is love.

Theme: We met when we had nothing, and stood by each other through thick and thin.
