The Empire's star general, Ku Zheng, is left on the brink of death in battle. When he wakes, he discovers that a male bug has saved him.
The little male bug is pretty and innocent, and always gazes at him with a pair of dewy eyes.
Ku Zheng tries to shower despite his injuries...
The little male bug: "Your wounds haven't healed. Don't move around. I'll do it!"
Ku Zheng: "I'm going to take a shower."
The little male bug: "I'll help you."
Ku Zheng: "We're not that close yet."
The little male bug: "It's fine. Our planet is warm, so feelings heat up quickly."
Ku Zheng: "?"
The situation grows turbulent, and the insect race is invaded by a foreign enemy. The little male bug dons armor and goes to battle, transforming into Shang Shixi, commander of a million troops.
When he returns victorious, he finds Ku Zheng smiling faintly, his gaze dangerous. "I really underestimated you. What was your motive for getting close to me and ingratiating yourself with me?"
Shang Shixi's eyes turn red. "..."
I just like you.
One day, Shang Shixi suddenly declares his love for Ku Zheng to the entire galaxy.
In response, Ku Zheng retaliates by posting on social media: "Cowherd and Weaver Girl, Xu Xian and the White Snake, Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian... That's just like you and me."
Shang Shixi trembles with ardor. "You... are you willing to elope with me?"
Ku Zheng is astonished. How did he manage to turn every tragic love story into a promise to spend their lives together?!
But the couple's relationship is now official, and billions of netizens are shipping them online. Ku Zheng's countless passionate admirers can't sit still.
Slander, provocation, insults...
Shang Shixi laughs scornfully. "If you've got the guts, fight me one-on-one!"
Ku Zheng pauses, then smiles and deletes the clarification he was about to post, replacing it with: "Whoever wins, I'll marry."
Shang Shixi's eyes light up. "It's a deal."

Complete: After Being Reborn, I Became the Ice Hockey Team Doctor's Number One Patient. A sweet gong-centric story, come on in!
Coming next: Transmigrate into a Book as the Villainous Male Supporting Character, Become Famous on a Parenting Reality Show, and Get a Happy Ending with the Protagonist Gong. Please add it to your collection! Blurb:
Chi Yunqian accidentally transmigrates into a book, becoming the villainous male supporting character who shares his name. The original owner was selfish and ruthless, willing to do anything to get the protagonist gong, even beating his own son and plotting against the protagonist shou. In the end, he goes to prison and dies by suicide, full of resentment.
A man isn't worth ruining your life over. Chi Yunqian doesn't want to repeat the same mistakes, so he decides to divorce the protagonist gong who doesn't love him and raise his twin sons alone.
To earn money to raise the kids, Chi Yunqian joins the parenting reality show, just as the book's plot dictates. The moment his participation is announced, the notoriously infamous man is slammed online:
"Married into a rich family and now bringing your kids to the entertainment industry to show off? What, did your marriage fall apart?"
"Like father, like sons. I just hope those two kids don't mess with our precious babies!"
In the first episode, the children complete their tasks through their own hard work. Before bed, they insist on singing a goodnight song for all the aunties and big sisters watching on TV. After filming, they give the camera crew candy to thank them... The online audience is surprised by how adorable and heartwarming they are:
"The boys are so sweet and well-behaved! If he raised kids like these, he can't be that bad a person, right?"
"Who couldn't act according to a script? He's just using the show to clean up his image."
In the second episode, Chi Yunqian makes a mistake, but his two sons end up paying for it. He says without a hint of guilt, "It's fine. Children have their own fate, and their good fortune is still to come." The viewers want to criticize him, but can't help thinking he has a point:
"Why are Chi Yunqian's brutally honest comments so annoying and yet so hard to hate?"
"The older brother is obsessed with his little brother, and the little brother is obsessed with his dad. In the end, they're both worrying about their dad. What did Chi Yunqian do to deserve this?!"
-
Chi Yunqian is photographed going out drinking with a company boss to secure an endorsement, and rumors of marital trouble once again set the internet ablaze.
After seeing the video and comments online, Xie Si is too agitated to focus on work. If Chi Yunqian needs endorsements, he'll come to him for help like he used to, asking him to do this and that. But Chi Yunqian doesn't come to him. What's more, Xie Si realizes that Chi Yunqian no longer seems to ask him for anything, and doesn't even speak to him first anymore... So he starts keeping a close eye on Chi Yunqian.
Chi Yunqian needs an advertising endorsement, so Xie Si gets him one, and even more besides. Chi Yunqian wants to release an album, so Xie Si immediately puts him in touch with a top music producer. Chi Yunqian seems to need money, so Xie Si doubles the amount he sends him each month...
When Chi Yunqian feels he's earned enough money, he places the divorce papers in front of Xie Si. "Sign them."
Xie Si freezes and asks instinctively, "I still haven't treated you well enough, have I?"
Chi Yunqian doesn't understand. "Hm?"
Xie Si explains, looking a little flustered. "I admit I was very... cold to you before. I know I was wrong, and I've been trying to make it up to you. If there was anything I didn't do well enough, just tell me. I'll change."
Chi Yunqian catches on. "Hm??"
Xie Si gently takes Chi Yunqian's hand and asks, "So, could we not get divorced?"
