Spoiled by a Powerful Tycoon

[Ongoing: The Foolish Cannon-Fodder Is the Big Shot’s Darling, blurb at the very bottom~] Blurb: Everyone knew that Ji Qingye of the Ji family was a master strategist, but also vicious by nature. Almost no one in Yuncheng dared to provoke him. It was said that one year, someone hoping to curry favor with the Ji family got the idea of sending a person to Ji Qingye’s bed. The next day, the person who had arranged it and the pretty young man both vanished without a trace from Yuncheng. After that, no one dared send anyone to his bed again. That year, the Ji family pulled its investment, and the Xia family faced bankruptcy. With nowhere else to turn, the Xia family sent their youngest and most beautiful son, Xia Huaiyan, to Ji Qingye’s bed. Everyone said Xia Huaiyan and the Xia family were as good as dead. A week later, the Xia company had made no move at all. It somehow held on for a while before finally announcing bankruptcy. Everyone: What’s going on? A month later, there was still no word about Xia Huaiyan. Everyone: Xia Huaiyan must have been dealt with just like the Xia family. Climbing into Ji Qingye’s bed? He must have a death wish. Two months later, during a video conference, everyone on the other end of the screen saw Xia Huaiyan rush into the study in tears. The people waiting to see Xia Huaiyan get punished watched Ji Qingye pull him into his arms and soothe him. “What’s wrong? Another nightmare?” Xia Huaiyan nodded. “You weren’t in the bedroom… I was scared.” “Mm.” Ji Qingye gently wiped away his tears. “What did I tell you to call me?” Blushing, Xia Huaiyan sniffled aggrievedly. “Hu… hubby…” Everyone on the video call fell silent, erupted, then fell silent again. One-on-one, both completely devoted to each other. A cold and distant top who dotes on his wife at home x a beautiful, unloved little sweetheart Content warning: I just want to write a sweet story about a helpless, dependent bottom being cherished. You can tell from the blurb that he’s weak, but I’ll spell it out again: he doesn’t have much going for him. His greatest talent is acting cute and being doted on without limits by the top. The characters aren’t perfect and each has their flaws. I’ll add more if anything else comes to mind. If it’s not your thing, feel free to stop reading. No need to let me know, and please don’t make personal attacks. Advance preview divider: The Foolish Cannon-Fodder Is the Big Shot’s Darling Xu Yunqiu is a rather dim-witted little fool. By chance, he learns that he’s only a foolish cannon-fodder in a book. His background is tragic, and his older brother tricks him into being sent to the male lead, Shen Hezhou, to spy on him. Unaware of the truth, Xu Yunqiu resents Shen Hezhou for forcing him into marriage and makes a scene at every turn. In the end, he loses the male lead’s love, is abandoned by his scumbag brother, and dies a terrible death. Xu Yunqiu: QAQ I don’t want to die! After awakening, he decides to get away from the bad, scummy people at once and make up with his husband. * When his husband comes home, he greets him with a smile. “You’re back! Would you like dinner first, or a bath?” The man furrows his brows. When his husband is thirsty, he pours him a glass of water, only to clumsily spill hot water all over him. The man’s temple twitches. When his husband is hungry, he decides to cook for him himself, but nearly blows up the kitchen. The man rescues him with a dark expression, gritting his teeth. “Very clever. Is this your new way of picking a fight with me?” Xu Yunqiu: QAQ I’m doomed! * Unable to think of anything else, Xu Yunqiu asks his emotionally perceptive friend for advice. His friend claps a hand on the table. “Easy! Ever heard of using your looks to seduce someone?” Shen Hezhou gets home late that night. The house is quiet, and the door to his room, which should have been shut tight, is open a crack. The little wife who once insisted on sleeping in a separate room is now in his bedroom, looking at him with the panicked expression of someone caught doing something they shouldn’t. “What are you doing?” He lowers his eyes, the corners of them red, but says nothing. Shen Hezhou finally loses control. He locks the door, grabs his hand, and grits his teeth. “This time, Qiuqiu, you were the one who tempted me first.” From then on, Shen Hezhou is in high spirits every day and never misses a chance to brag to his friend. “You don’t have a wife?” He quietly raises his ring finger. “Then take a guess: do I have one?” “My wife looks so adorable when he sleeps. I’m not letting you see.” “Hah, cat got your tongue? Jealous I have a wife, are you?” His friend: …Get lost! Their peaceful days grow sweeter and sweeter, but Xu Yunqiu’s belly gets bigger by the day. A gust of wind sweeps into the hospital room as the man rushes over through the storm. Clutching the bedsheet helplessly, Xu Yunqiu tells him, “Hubby, the doctor said I’m not sick. I’m having a baby.” The man’s eyes turn red in an instant. * Xu Yunqiu’s older brother has no idea that the worst mistake he ever made was sending Xu Yunqiu to that man surnamed Shen. Later, when the Xu family falls into ruin, he has to stand outside Xu Yunqiu’s new home and beg for mercy from the young man they once treated as worthless.
