[Deeply devoted, patient, loyal gong x gentle, resilient, sickly shou]
Intersex pregnancy | Regretful pursuit of the beloved | Devoted couple | Angsty tropes | HE
There is angst early on; feel free to skip it if that's not for you.
The setting has been revised from the author's no-CP novel, and Mingxi's younger sister survives.
This is a 1v1 romance with a five-year age gap. They only have each other from beginning to end.
The shou is intersex. Please don't read if that's not for you.
The angst is dialed up to the max: fake death, misunderstandings, identity reveals, regretful pursuit of the beloved... All the angsty tropes are here. Please click the top-right corner if that's not for you.
The heartbreak feels real, but there's plenty of sweetness, too.
There are a few Touken Ranbu elements, but only a tiny bit.
One last time:
It's a happy ending, a happy ending, a happy ending.
Theme: Love can make people grow flesh and blood in a mad rush.
