As the betrothed of the wealthy young master Lu, Song Shuning had always held himself to high standards, striving to be a refined young gentleman worthy of the Lu family.
On the eve of their engagement, he accidentally learned that he was a doomed supporting character in a novel. The so-called marriage alliance was just part of a scheme between the male lead and his adoptive father. In the end, Song Shuning would become a stepping stone in their plot, and meet a tragic fate.
Once he learned the truth, Song Shuning was done playing along.
To hell with being a pampered, obedient little gentleman. He was calling off the engagement and giving up on trying!
Things he'd never been allowed to do before? He'd do them.
The people he'd always let walk all over him? He'd make them eat their words.
A man who danced to his taste? He'd sleep with him!
Wait, why was his belly getting bigger?

After Song Shuning broke off their engagement, Lu Qiunan flew into a rage and vowed to make Song Shuning come back in tears, begging to get back together.
Instead, all he got was news that Song Shuning was getting married, and to Gu Xun, the formidable figure who had nearly brought the Lu family to its knees.
-
As the mysterious heir to the prestigious Gu family, Gu Xun was ruthless and cruel, with a mood as unpredictable as the weather. Everyone in Yanjing feared and respected him, while desperately trying to curry favor with him.
Little did they know that this great figure, whose face they could never even glimpse, was holding Song Shuning, a man they looked down on, and gently coaxing the miserable, pregnancy-sick man to eat.
"Come on, just one more bite. Just one."
