An emotionally detached recipient who has been through trauma. After dying horribly, he is reborn and only wants to live an ordinary life. He sees Zhou Zixu, an actor from a minor league, as his salvation.
The younger seme is a devoted, househusband-like assistant. Because of his sexual orientation, he married and adopted a son. His wife is a lesbian, and they married by agreement. This isn't a story about a man married to a lesbian, and women aren't vilified.
The younger seme is a possessive, despicable, domineering CEO and a scumbag. In their previous life, he was the person the recipient loved.
This story rejects Stockholm syndrome. After being reborn, the recipient absolutely will not fall in love with the scumbag seme, though he will pretend otherwise in the middle and later parts of the story. The recipient has suffered psychological trauma, so some readers might find him melodramatic, but he is definitely not weak. The story is set in the entertainment industry. My personal plan is for a bad ending, but that may change depending on where the story goes.
Neither the seme nor the recipient is inexperienced. Please take note if this is a dealbreaker.
