Original title: Bedtime Wish. Includes: childbirth / groveling to win back a wife / mutual secret crushes / childhood friends / running away while pregnant / marriage first, love later
Seven years ago, Shan Leijun, a student at an elite private high school, rescued Shen Li from being bullied at school. Their innocent feelings left a seed in both their hearts.
But their good times didn't last. Shen Li went abroad without leaving Shan Leijun a single message, not even a word.
--
Seven years later, before Shen Li returns to the country, his family tells him that he's going to marry Shan Leijun, the person he'd admired as a teenager.
In his innocence, he thinks he's about to step into a happy marriage. Before returning home, he writes in his diary: I hope I can get a goodnight kiss every night before bed.
On their wedding night, he quietly waits for his first goodnight kiss, but the other man coldly tosses out, "It's just a business marriage. Let's each do our own thing."
Winter is bitterly cold, cold enough to chill the heart. Shen Li huddles under his blankets alone, speaking to himself in a quiet, sorrowful voice. "So much for my bedtime wish."
Meanwhile, looking at Shen Li's resume, Shan Leijun wonders: Is he going to use me and then leave without a word again?
In the end, the two inevitably divorce, but Shen Li is left with Shan Leijun's child in his belly.

Arrogant, volatile, flamboyant, suspicious male idol gong (Shan Leijun) x clever, stubborn, devoted heartthrob shou (Shen Li)
A few notes:
1. The gong is not a virgin and has a playboy streak. Please take note if that isn't for you before he realizes his feelings.
2. Includes: groveling to win back a wife / mutual secret crushes / school flashbacks / running away while pregnant / marriage first, love later / happy ending / childbirth
3. There aren't many flashbacks, and most are woven into the main story.
4. It's angsty, but don't worry, the author writes sweet romances.
5. The gong and shou appeared in the author's novel After Leaving My Scummy Alpha, I Became the Favorite of a Younger Man. This can be viewed as a parallel world.
