My Husband Is Slowly Losing Control

Female Lead Version

After Xiao Ru'an, the true heiress who had been lost for years, reunited with her birth family, the fake heiress stole her fiance.

The fake heiress thought the fiance had always been meant for her. Xiao Ru'an's birth parents thought she was eccentric and acted strangely, and was no match for the fake heiress, so naturally she should give him up. The servants throughout the household whispered that Xiao Ru'an would probably never find a husband.

But just a few days later, the prestigious and renowned Young General Xie of the Xie family made a grand public proposal to Xiao Ru'an.

Xiao Ru'an assumed that Xie Shenyi was marrying her only to fend off marriage alliances pushed by the powerful families in the capital, protect the delicate cousin he loved, and perhaps show her a little pity. After they married, she would keep her distance and treat him with respect. Once he no longer needed her, she would immediately divorce him and step aside.

But married life turned out nothing like Xiao Ru'an expected.

For example, Xie Shenyi said he was busy with military affairs and had little time to spend with her. Yet every few days, he would complain of headaches or sore feet, and claimed he could only get better if Xie Shenyi stayed by his side to rub and massage him.

And when his delicate cousin brought him soup in front of Xiao Ru'an and fussed over him, Xie Shenyi smiled amiably, then rudely reached out and knocked the bowl over.

Xie Shenyi even stubbornly insisted he had contracted a strange illness and was gradually losing control of his body.

Xiao Ru'an nodded coolly on the outside, but laughed to herself: You like me, don't you!

Male Lead Version

In his previous life, Xie Shenyi, commander of the Youzhou Army, was framed for rebellion and thrown into prison. His wife, Xiao Ru'an, threw herself against the gates of the imperial palace and died, shocking the court. Her sacrifice bought Xie Shenyi a sliver of hope.

When Xie Shenyi learned of it in prison, his hair turned white overnight. Later, he truly raised an army and rebelled.

After succeeding, Xie Shenyi prayed to the heavens countless times, willing to give anything just to see Xiao Ru'an once more.

His wish came true. He returned to seven years earlier, before he and Xiao Ru'an had married.

But he was no longer entirely himself. He was trapped inside his own twenty-year-old body and could control only a small part of it. Changing the course of his previous life proved extraordinarily difficult.

And twenty-year-old Xie Shenyi loved Xiao Ru'an but refused to admit it, making her suffer through neglect and heartache.

Watching his younger self, the twenty-seven-year-old Xie Shenyi wanted nothing more than to smash his own head in.
