Yan Shu died. He never expected that when he opened his eyes again, he'd skipped childhood and adolescence and gone straight to adulthood.
This life, he was also called Yan Shu. He was sickly, and not just a little sickly: he was on the verge of death. To bring him good luck, his family had just found him a young spouse.
His new spouse was a man, sweet and obedient, and looked exactly like the person Yan Shu had dreamed about in his previous life.
This had to be fate! He'd always wondered why his dream lover's face was so clear, yet he could never find him. It turned out his lover belonged to this life.
Now that Yan Shu had finally gotten the dream lover he'd waited a lifetime for, he decided to spoil his little spouse rotten.
But somehow, as he kept spoiling his spouse, he became the one being spoiled.
Fu Changchen never expected that after failing his tribulation, he would find himself in his younger self's body. At the time, he hadn't entered the cultivation world yet. A wealthy merchant had taken him in and married him off to his youngest son to bring the boy good luck.
But he remembered that this cheap husband of his had died of illness just a few days after their wedding. The attempt to bring good luck had instead brought death. Fu Changchen had been kicked out with nothing to his name, nearly starved to death, and then taken in by a demonic cultivator. That was how he had entered the cultivation world.
Fu Changchen hadn't started cultivating yet. His skin was delicate, his body frail, and he was only a little healthier than his sickly husband. The shameless leader of the demonic cultivators decided to play obedient and scrounge a few meals from his cheap husband while he recovered. Once the sickly man died, he could start cultivating.
Unexpectedly, in this life, the sickly man seemed to like him very much. He somehow held on to life, calling Fu Changchen "wife" at every turn and bringing him every nice thing he could find.
Fu Changchen was puzzled. Fu Changchen was confused. He had never been treated kindly or experienced love before, but he unexpectedly liked the way the sickly man gazed at him with shining eyes, trying to win him over. There was no fear, no flattery, no scheming, just overflowing affection.
Being spoiled like this wasn't so bad. So the capricious demon followed his heart and let the husband who should have died of illness live. He could kill him once he got tired of him.
That's what Fu Changchen thought, but he could never bring himself to let go of the other's hand.
