One day, while gathering wild vegetables in the mountains, Nan Bei unexpectedly found a badly wounded man with striking looks.
He fell for him at first sight.
After spending all his money to save the man’s life, Nan Bei nervously fidgeted with his clothes and asked:
"I can take care of you. Would you marry me?"
Then, as if worried the man might think he was poor, he quickly pointed to the little courtyard behind him, full of plump gourds:
"I built this courtyard myself, and I planted all of those."
Nan Bei grew all sorts of gourds. He stir-fried sweet ones, used bitter ones as ladles, carried water in wine gourds, and raised crickets in little gourds. The vines, tendrils, leaves, and flowers could all be used as medicine, while the gourd pulp and seeds could counteract poison. People from all the nearby villages came to ask him how to grow them.
Nan Bei proudly puffed out his chest. "If you marry me, I’ll use all the money I make selling gourds to buy you new clothes."

Xiao Lian, the seventh prince, was ambushed. When he woke, he discovered he had been rescued by a man living alone in the mountains.
As they spent time together while he recovered, Xiao Lian realized that this amnesiac man was his loyal shadow guard, who had been missing for a long time. Back then, all the shadow guards had worn masks, and Xiao Lian had only recognized him by the pale little mole at the nape of his neck.
He didn’t know what his little shadow guard had gone through, but now the man was terribly afraid of blood.
Once he had recovered, Xiao Lian was fretting over how to stay when he heard Nan Bei propose. He immediately smiled and accepted. "Then I’ll have to rely on you to take care of me from now on, dear husband."
*
As the husband, Nan Bei just couldn’t understand one thing.
They had bowed to Heaven and Earth, drunk the wedding wine, and consummated their marriage. They had followed every step described in the storybooks, without missing a thing.
But... why was he the one who got pregnant?!
Xiao Lian: (*^▽^*)
When the emperor heard that the seventh prince had married without permission, he flew into a rage. He sent Xiao Lian away with an imperial decree, then ordered Nan Bei’s entire clan executed after the autumn harvest, accusing him of bewitching the prince with sorcery.
When Xiao Lian got the news, he rode back to the capital from the northern frontier through the night and charged into the throne hall:
"Your son has already given himself to his husband, so I count as part of his clan."

Blurb:
Wealthy young master Xie Ying’s family falls on hard times, and then, as if things couldn’t get worse, he gets into a car accident on his way to work.
When he opens his eyes, he finds himself in a hospital bed, with his lifelong nemesis Yan Huaichen standing beside him.
Mortified, Xie Ying immediately hobbles away, holding up his IV drip.
"I’ll pay off your debt if you help me put on an act," Yan Huaichen says, blocking his way.
The exhausted wage slave, Xie Ying, wavers despite himself. "What kind of act?"
Yan Huaichen: "Pretend our marriage has fallen apart on a divorce reality show."
Xie Ying: "How bad has it fallen apart?"
Yan Huaichen: "As bad as when you came in second in the ninth grade and wanted to tear my clothes off."
Xie Ying fidgets. "I’m not a professional actor. How would I know how to act like that...?"
Yan Huaichen raises an eyebrow. "Just act the way you usually do around me. Tone it down a little."
Xie Ying: "..."
Xie Ying keeps his word and does the job he’s paid for.
On the show, he carefully observes the other couples and faithfully copies what they do:
Yan Huaichen sits beside him, and Xie Ying immediately slaps him. "Why did you betray me?!"
Yan Huaichen washes his feet, and Xie Ying kicks the basin over. "Spare me the fake affection!"
But the comments are full of shameless perverts, drooling over Xie Ying:
[Look at that adorable wife!]
[That slap made Yan Huaichen so happy. I was afraid he’d lick Yingying’s hand.]
[Please hurry up and get divorced. I’m waiting for Yingying’s second marriage (hands together).]
Only when Yan Huaichen pins him to the bed does Xie Ying finally realize what’s going on. "You bastard, you played me?!"
Yan Huaichen kisses the rim of his ear. "Be good. Let the dog take a couple more bites."
