Reborn, He Carries His Ex-Husband's Baby

In her previous life, Yan Chijin schemed and plotted tirelessly, finally helping the person she loved most, the Second Prince of Great Qi, ascend the throne. She thought she could restore her family's glory and hold her head high at last. But the man she admired personally sent over a hundred members of the Yan family to the execution ground, where they were beheaded before the public.

Yan Chijin could never forget being locked in a dark, lightless prison and having his leg bones broken.

He could never forget how, that day, the new emperor ground his bloodstained boots across Yan Chijin's face and told him about the gruesome deaths of his family.

The chance at life Yan Chijin had fought for over five years had become the road to ruin for both his family and himself.

What Yan Chijin never expected was that the man he considered the greatest disgrace of his life, the former husband he had personally divorced five years ago, Third Prince Miao Sheng, would travel thousands of miles from the border to the capital for his sake. Miao Sheng stormed the imperial city with his troops and risked his life in a palace coup to win Yan Chijin a chance to survive.

But Miao Sheng was outnumbered and fell into the new emperor's trap. He died unjustly within the palace, leaving no body behind.

Only then did Yan Chijin finally see who truly loved him. But it was too late. Overcome by grief and unable to bear the humiliation, he smashed his head against the prison wall and died.

When Yan Chijin opened his eyes again, he was back before the struggle for the throne.

This time, he would avenge the betrayal of his previous life. He would devote his life to protecting and restoring the Yan family, and to...

cherishing the person he ought to love.

But after being reborn, many things seemed to slip out of his control.

For example, the passionate light of love in Miao Sheng's eyes had disappeared.

For example, Miao Sheng's attitude toward him was now hard to read, distant one moment and close the next.

And then there was the fact that he and Miao Sheng had... a child...

Wait... how could he be... pregnant with his ex-husband's child?!

[The top's point of view]

In his previous life, Miao Sheng had loved Yan Chijin with all his heart, only to be betrayed and die beneath a rain of arrows.

This time, Miao Sheng decided to close off his heart, become an idle prince, and stay out of Yan Chijin's affairs for good...

Until one day, he noticed that Yan Chijin, who was always hanging around him and whom he loved to tease, was getting bigger by the day?!

And later, Yan Chijin left without a second thought, while the little tagalong he left behind started looking more and more like Miao Sheng?!

Miao Sheng: Is it still in time to bring the little one along and win him back so we can remarry?!

Older, sickly bottom x a top whose mouth is tougher than his...

Reading Guide:

1. A second-chance story about a married couple who are both reborn and reunite after a breakup. It follows the bittersweet, over-the-top melodrama tradition. They are each other's first and only, and they have only ever loved each other in either life. There are quite a few misunderstandings. HE.

2. The bottom has a leg injury but recovers later. The baby appears in the middle-to-late part of the story. At first, neither of them knows the bottom can give birth. Hehe, there will be a chase-to-win-him-back plot with the top taking care of the baby.

3. The political scheming is just for fun. Don't take it too seriously.

4. Neither lead is perfect, and both are too tangled up in their feelings.

5. The cover is authorized. The volume titles come from Yan Jidao's poem "Ruan Lang Gui."

6. Since this is a melodramatic story, both leads suffer a little, so it won't suit everyone's taste. If you drop the story, please don't tell me. Thank you!

Theme: Even in difficult circumstances, persevere and face challenges bravely
