[Synopsis]

Yun Ling became an elder of the Fengqing Sect at just eighteen, with a bright future ahead of him.

That is, until he took on three rebellious disciples.

His eldest disciple stole secret manuals and founded a rival sect. Once his power had grown, he even wanted to abduct Yun Ling.

His second disciple was brutal and bloodthirsty. He wiped out the chancellor's entire family overnight, and his bloodstained sword bore Yun Ling's name.

His third disciple was peerlessly beautiful. He would casually say he wanted a treasure, making others risk their lives to get it, then, after ruining them, say, "Get lost. I want to stay with Master."

Everyone told Yun Ling to keep his disciples in line and stop them from bringing calamity upon the world.

Yun Ling's mind grew unsettled, and he died after qi deviation.

Then he was reborn.

*

After being reborn, Yun Ling still took on disciples, but couldn't be bothered to teach them. He drank tea, teased the birds, and found ways to keep his disciples busy.

His eldest disciple liked being a cat burglar? Then he could deliver letters and gifts, running errands between sects.

His second disciple liked slitting people's throats? Then he could help out in the kitchen and slit chicken throats every day.

His third disciple kept attracting trouble? Then he could wear a mask and stay in his room.

But the result...

The eldest disciple reported, "Master, we've got spies in every major sect! You could wipe them all out with a single word."

The second disciple presented him with rare treasures. "Master, I traded my cooking for these. They're all yours."

The third disciple took off his mask and smiled seductively. "Master, now that you've seen my real face, you'll take responsibility, won't you?"

Yun Ling: ...

Was he sick in the head, and were his rebellious disciples even sicker?

Later, he learned the reason.

All three of his rebellious disciples had also been reborn!

Jian Jin originally lived in a world where everyone put themselves first and efficiency was paramount. People in that world scoffed at emotions, often choosing conditional partnerships instead of marriage, and replacing traditional reproduction with machines that combined genes.

Suddenly, he transmigrated into a novel and became a scum shou who couldn't have the person he loved, the white moonlight, and married a substitute on the strength of his wealth and power.

Jian Jin: Marry for love? I don't get it. Let's see.

The original had registered his marriage with his husband.

Jian Jin: So traditional. He's so in love.

The original lived with his husband, sharing every part of the home except for their own bedrooms.

Jian Jin: Shared resources? He's so in love.

The original had drawn up a prenuptial agreement requiring his husband to come whenever he was called.

Jian Jin: The contract doesn't say anything about resource allocation, just this? He's so in love.

The original decided everything they would do, including intimate acts.

Jian Jin: They do this without reproducing? He's so in love.

Deeply shaken, he said, "What a magnificent love. I want to experience it."

Gu Xiyun was an orphan who made his way into the entertainment industry and became a director through his own efforts.

He made an award-winning film and thought his life was finally about to turn around, only to catch the eye of the young master of the Jian family.

Because he looked a little like the young master's white moonlight, the young master spent a fortune trying to arrange a tailor-made marriage contract just for the two of them.

Gu Xiyun: Fine.

The young master: "This isn't a fake marriage. I want to do whatever I want."

Gu Xiyun: Fine, but that'll cost extra.

Three years of marriage should be enough for the young master to get bored.

But right after they married, the young master learned that his white moonlight was returning to the country. He only ever looked at Gu Xiyun's face, and kept their relationship as dull as dishwater.

Then one day, the young master changed.

He smiled whenever he saw Gu Xiyun and called him, "Honey."

He was willing to eat together, and sincerely thanked him when Gu Xiyun served him food. "Thanks for sharing your resources."

He remembered Gu Xiyun's preferences and would take the initiative to get close. When their hands touched, his clear, bright eyes went wide, his ears flushed, and he murmured softly, "Wow, so this is what it feels like."

*

Gu Xiyun: ???

Was this still the haughty young master who treated him like a collectible figure?

Still, this version of the young master was kind of cute.

Later, Gu Xiyun fell for him.

He forgot his plans to leave. When his enormously wealthy biological father demanded that he come home, Gu Xiyun merely touched his wedding ring and smiled.

"Forget it. I already have a home."

*

After experiencing what love felt like, Jian Jin came clean. "I'm sorry I lied to you. I'm not the person you love. He's gone, replaced by me, someone from a different world."

Gu Xiyun's face darkened. "You still love playing substitute games."

Jian Jin: "Huh?"

Gu Xiyun slowly moved closer and whispered into his ear.

"Fine. I'll play along."

"But this time, it's for real, and we're playing for the rest of our lives."
