Everyone in Guihua Town knew that Zhu Shu was a boy who wasn't easy to like.

He couldn't sweet-talk his parents into happiness or act cute to win their affection. He couldn't even bring himself to say what he liked. The Zhu couple were terribly worried about him.

The townspeople all urged the Zhu couple to take in a live-in son-in-law, or their son would never find a husband when he grew old.

So they chose the clever, charming eldest son of the Mo family. But on the wedding day, he was replaced by a gloomy little fool who couldn't read a single character.

The townspeople all shook their heads. An unlikeable boy and a fool? They'd be lucky to get by.

But before long, they saw Shu, who was usually so unsmiling, blushing as he wiped the sweat from Mo Wenyu's brow while he ran his little stall. The stall was surrounded by crowds, and business was booming.

Everyone: ? What happened to him being unlikeable? What happened to the fool?

Then, the following autumn, at the Zhu family's hotpot restaurant, they saw Shu wrap his arms around Mo Wenyu's and lean against him, calling him "husband" in a soft, sweet voice. Their eyes nearly popped out of their heads.

He'd really fallen for him!

A sweet, everyday-life romance about family and home.

A seemingly affectionate, harmless, loyal puppy of a husband who is actually possessive and fiercely protective x a cold, reserved husband

Reader's Guide: 1. The shou's aloofness isn't genuine. He'll treat the gong very well.

2. Their relationship is mutual, with neither side simply trying to please the other.

3. Please don't offer unsolicited writing advice~

Blurb for upcoming novel After the Canary Flew Away, He Went Through Hell to Win Him Back:

Everyone knew that Xie Nangguan was a canary kept in a cage by Shi Bochun, good for nothing but his handsome face.

Even Xie Nangguan himself thought so.

His parents abandoned him, his friends betrayed him, and he was nearly harassed and raped by his employer. If Shi Bochun hadn't stepped in to save him, he would have died.

Later, he became Shi Bochun's secret lover for three years, doing everything a lover was supposed to do.

He was beautiful, gentle, humble, and obedient. He never made a scene or asked for anything.

He always thought Shi Bochun loved him.

Shi Bochun was simply the eldest son of the Shi family and heir to its business empire, so he couldn't give Xie Nangguan a place by his side.

That was until Shi Bochun's first love returned from abroad. In front of the entire Shi family, Shi Bochun put an arm around the other man's waist and gently drew him into his embrace.

Looking at that face, so similar to his own, Xie Nangguan suddenly understood. He was nothing more than a substitute.

He could receive Shi Bochun's endless affection, but he would never get even a little of his love.

-

Shi Bochun had always thought Xie Nangguan was the most obedient of all his substitute lovers.

Xie Nangguan was humble and gentle, never competing or making demands. Even in bed, he would satisfy Shi Bochun's every desire. So Shi Bochun was willing to spend lavishly on him, and when he was in a good mood, he would even say sweet things to make Xie Nangguan happy.

As time went on, Shi Bochun saw the fierce love in Xie Nangguan's eyes, but it was something he could never return.

He could offer him a little kindness, but not the passionate love he wanted.

Besides, how could someone as pitiful as him survive without Shi Bochun?

But when Xie Nangguan truly left, Shi Bochun finally realized:

He was madly in love with Xie Nangguan.

"Once you miss someone, you may have truly missed your chance forever."
