After the Spoiled Heir Ran Away from His Wedding

Liu Shu, the foremost of Jiangnan’s Four Great Scions, spent his days idling over tea and wine, never taking anything seriously. When he learned he was betrothed to the second son of the Shen family in the capital, he packed his travel money and fled to the farthest place he could find. Unfortunately, things went badly from the start. Robbed by bandits on the road, he arrived at a farmhouse in ragged clothes and a filthy state, and knocked on the door. A man dressed in rough homespun opened it. Their eyes met Oh no, Liu Shu thought, clutching his chest. Good lord, he’s so handsome! -- For the first time, Liu Shu had met the kind of man who existed only in the stories: poor but pure-hearted, struggling to make ends meet yet still dignified, and graceful even when crouching in a chicken coop to look for eggs. Utterly captivated, Liu Shu resolved to shoulder the burden of the household so he could win the man over and live a good life. He plowed the fields while the man wove, hauled water and tended the garden, and somehow made an already impoverished household even worse off. Liu Shu: =.= Strange. The more he farmed, the poorer they got, so why did their life keep getting better and better? -- One day, Liu Shu decided to come clean. “My dear, my father is actually the richest man in Jiangnan. I also have this dubious engagement to marry the second son of a stuffy, old-fashioned family in the capital. I bet he’s studied himself stupid. He probably can’t lift a finger or tell a grain from a weed, and he’s nothing compared to you~” After he finished, his man fell into an eerie silence for a moment. “...I’m the second son of the Shen family.” “?” “Also, who are you calling ‘my dear’?” “???” #Liu Shu: How many more surprises have you got that this young master doesn’t know about?# #Shen Ke: After running away from my wedding, I went to great lengths to help my homeless, hardworking (though not very good at it) wife get rich, only to discover his family was rolling in money all along.# [Cozy story ahead] * One-on-one romance, happy ending, silly farming comedy, fictional setting, lots of creative liberties. * Neither lead is perfect.

The kinder he was at first, the crueler he became later. At seventeen, the boyfriend who had schemed so hard to win him over promptly dumped him. Then tragedy struck his family, and his parents and friends abandoned him one after another. When Luo Qingran woke up, he had become Duan Fei’s... ex-boyfriend. He had just slapped Duan Fei hard in front of all their classmates, and next he was supposed to mercilessly humiliate and mock him. Luo Qingran: If I slap him again, I might die.jpg The person standing before him was strikingly beautiful. The light in his loosening gaze began to shatter Luo Qingran slapped him again, his eyes brimming with tears. “I love you so much! Why won’t you listen to me? We agreed we’d get into Tsinghua together, sob!” Everyone: ...? 2. When his classmates demanded to know why he wouldn’t dump Duan Fei, he caught sight of Duan Fei and passionately recited, “I love him, wildly and madly, with all my heart.” Duan Fei was deeply moved and secretly kissed him that night. When a teacher tried to stop their puppy love, he clutched Duan Fei’s hand and swore passionately, “Only death and the college entrance score cutoff can tear us apart!” Duan Fei was deeply moved and kissed him on the spot. When Duan Fei’s parents demanded that he leave Duan Fei, he produced a five-million-yuan... IOU. “Take this five million and leave my man!” Duan Fei was deeply moved and kissed him right there. One day, Duan Fei gently caressed his lips. “Do you love me?” “More than anything.” Duan Fei suddenly bit down hard, his eyes wild. “Tell the truth.” Luo Qingran: ? Wait, is that really how a pure-hearted high school boy is supposed to react? 3. Luo Qingran thought that driving away everyone who hated Duan Fei would prevent him from turning evil. What he didn’t know was that this was actually Duan Fei’s second life. Duan Fei had recognized this stranger from the very first time they met.
