Qiao Zhen is a pampered omega who suddenly finds himself transported to the Republican era.
His family is poor, but his birth chart is auspicious, so they force him to marry a disabled young master to bring him good fortune.
In this world without suppressants, omegas suffer terribly. On their wedding night, he isn't afraid. Instead, he eagerly crawls into bed and asks, “Can you still use it?”
Zhou Xuanli, who has been disabled for years: “?”
Qiao Zhen is a pampered omega who can't stand pain or the slightest grievance. He knows he is here to serve the disabled young master, but he's thin and sensitive, and tears well up if anyone raises their voice at him.
One day, Zhou Xuanli's leg condition grows worse, and he doesn't dare change his medication. Qiao Zhen cries anxiously. When the servants fetch a doctor, the disabled young master drags himself along with half his body, pours him a glass of water, then lies on the floor begging him to drink it and soothe his throat. If he keeps crying, his throat will suffer.
The doctor: “?”

Without suppressants, heats are always hard to endure. Raised in a traditional household, Qiao Zhen really wants a baby of his own, so his heats won't be so miserable.
But even after a long time, there is still no sign of a baby.
One night, he leans against Zhou Xuanli and asks, “Young Master, I've been serving you for so long. Why haven't you gotten me pregnant yet?”
Zhou Xuanli explains helplessly, “You're a man.”
Qiao Zhen says men can give birth too, and that the young master must be the problem. “Could it be that you can't have children anymore? Maybe I should go find someone else, then the baby can take your surname.”
Zhou Xuanli gets up, staring wide-eyed: “?”
The next day, celebratory firecrackers ring out in the courtyard: “The young master, disabled for years, has finally stood up!”
-
A year later, the young master returns from a few months away on business and sees his wife's swollen belly. He closes his eyes speechlessly. “Take out the pillow.”
Qiao Zhen: “It's a baby!”
“Don't say crazy things. Your delusion is acting up again. If outsiders hear that nonsense, they'll laugh at you.”
The omega lifts his shirt, pouts, and says, “If you don't want the baby, I'll leave!”
The gong slaps himself across the face, wondering how he ended up going crazy too.
-
The gong isn't frail. He's strong, his legs recover quickly, and he can walk as fast as the wind.
