Yu Xuzhao, whose heart was as cold as dead ashes, fell into a deep sleep after participating in a newly developed full-dive dating simulation game. The only way to wake up was to find true love and confirm where he belonged.
He had no intention of waking up.
By a twist of fate, he ended up signing a marriage certificate with a man he had casually grabbed hold of in the game.
The game's complete record of the romance read: The Shen family's only son, brutal, cold, and miserly.
Yu Xuzhao thought the man was a real phony. In front of him, he put on an air of aloof elegance and acted like a respectable gentleman. Yu Xuzhao was going to see just how long he could keep up the act!
From then on, observing Shen Changxu became an amusing pastime for Yu Xuzhao during his otherwise idle days.
Shen Changxu sternly reprimanded a gentle, sweet female Omega at the company, yet let the snowy-white cat in his arms scramble around and claw at his expensive brooch.
Yu Xuzhao's inner monologue: What a hopelessly straight guy, not a shred of tenderness toward women... But the contrast between him and that cat is kind of cute. Wait, no! Shen Changxu married me. I'm a man, but I'm an Omega!
So, is Shen Changxu actually straight or not?!
Shen Changxu shelved a top-tier star drummer after a scandal broke.
Yu Xuzhao: Tsk, killing the rabbit after the hunt is over.
Then, in the blink of an eye, he saw the disgraced top-tier Alpha happily honeymooning with his male lover on a luxurious island abroad. On the hotel front desk's slip, among a string of couple's ##, Shen Changxu's name was plainly written.
Yu Xuzhao: Is this... a slap followed by a sweet treat? It seems like all three of them are enjoying this...
Shen Changxu schemed against his own father and left him without a single coin.
Yu Xuzhao: Tsk, what a move.
The next second, he saw a string of extra zeroes in his phone balance...
Yu Xuzhao: !!! Shen Changxu, you're just too good to me!
A little from the gong's perspective:
My husband is lively and adorable. He likes to joke with me and sometimes swats at me with a claw.
He married me out of helplessness (strike that, on a whim). I know he doesn't like me, and he doesn't remember me.
But one day, he started observing me, watching me. I know he's probing me, sizing me up, and I don't dislike it.
On the contrary, I want his gaze to stay on me forever.
But... he always has to go home.
