[My next story, a palate cleanser after I finish Crossing the Line]
After dying suddenly, Ji Xingzhi transmigrates into a book, becoming the universally hated young master in a novel where Omegas are revered and Alphas are despised.
He thinks he can lie flat and spend the rest of his life doing nothing.
But the moment he opens his eyes, he finds a shirtless Alpha kneeling in his room, with eight-pack abs and a powerful build.
And on closer inspection, this shirtless Alpha is none other than the future big shot from the book, a man who always repays every slight!
Seeing the blue marks covering the Alpha's waist and abdomen, Ji Xingzhi cautiously asks, feeling guilty, "...Do I hit you a lot?"
The Alpha says nothing, just kneels there stiffly.
Which is pretty much as good as admitting it.
Ji Xingzhi: horrified ( )
"Are you saying I hit those rock-hard, powerful pecs with these soft, feeble hands of mine?!"
The other man remains silent.
Which is pretty much as good as admitting it.
Ji Xingzhi: horrified, again ( )

To save the Ji family from Ye Hanyu's vengeful wrath three years from now, after Ye successfully becomes the heir, and to preserve the rich life he hasn't even had a chance to enjoy yet, Ji Xingzhi rises from his lazy ways, studies business management, and hustles like crazy to make money.
He gives Ye Hanyu plenty of room to grow wild, while accepting every olive branch other Alphas offer him.
Before the three years are up, he runs off with a fortune, taking his whole family and vanishing without a trace.
But less than a year and a half later, an Alpha catches him at a nightclub.
The vicious revenge he'd expected never comes.
Instead, the usually cold, gloomy Alpha who never gives in corners him in the alley behind the bar.
The neon lights hide his reddened eyes.
"...Xingzhi," he murmurs, at a loss for what to do, his voice hoarse. "Don't you want our home anymore?"
Ji Xingzhi: "...?"

Because of one joke, Ye Hanyu was sent off to marry for political gain as if he were a plaything, and he couldn't wait for Ji Xingzhi to die.
But on the day of the wedding, five months later...
As he watches the drunken Omega collapse into his arms, clinging to him and refusing to let go, he unexpectedly thinks that maybe this kind of life isn't so bad after all.
Lazy Omega x gloomy Alpha
[Reading tips]
1. There are multiple love interests, but the romance is one-on-one. This isn't a stock-picking story, though there will be rivalry between the Alphas.
2. It's a sweet story at heart, with little concern for logic. The author writes at their own pace.
Theme: Love is both a worthy opponent and someone at your side.
