Transported to the Time My Wealthy Husband Was Young and Down on His Luck

[The complete novel is finished! Please leave it a good review. Sending love!]

Yu Sheng was “forced” to marry an older man from a wealthy family. His husband was rich and powerful, and looked fierce, with a scar across the right side of his face. People said he’d gotten it back when he was mixed up with the wrong crowd.

Yu Sheng was terrified of him and had only agreed to the marriage reluctantly. Every day, he counted down to their divorce.

Then, one day, he woke from a dream and found himself transported more than ten years into the past.

Back then, his wealthy husband, Jiang Ji, was still a poor laborer hauling bricks at a construction site. He was handsome and aloof, and his face was still unscarred. And Yu Sheng had become his younger husband’s… terrible coworker?

Apparently, he and Jiang Ji came from the same village, and he’d begged Jiang Ji to bring him along to find work. But once they got to the construction site, he complained that it was too hard and exhausting. At Jiang Ji’s most difficult moment, Yu Sheng got him arrested, then took the chance to run off with his money.

When Yu Sheng arrived, Jiang Ji had just been released from the station. He caught Yu Sheng partying at a disco, his gaze cold as a blade.

Yu Sheng had just drunk a spiked cocktail. Mistaking Jiang Ji for the husband he’d known more than ten years later, he shuddered in fright and hurriedly raised his head to plant a soft kiss on him.

Jiang Ji froze. The air around them turned icy.

Yu Sheng unexpectedly spent the night with Jiang Ji. When he woke up and realized something was off, he was thrilled: Jiang Ji had no money or influence now?

His current husband had become his ex. He didn’t even need to get a divorce. See you never!

He dusted himself off and left, planning to look for the parents he’d had in his previous life.

Later, Yu Sheng handed Jiang Ji a piece of paper with a miserable look. “I’m pregnant. It’s yours.”

Jiang Ji: “…” (eyes wide with shock)

And later still

To support the two pampered softies at home, one big and one small, Jiang Ji worked his way to becoming the richest man in the world ahead of schedule.

Chi Songyu came from an ordinary family and had a plain upbringing. Apart from being extraordinarily good-looking, there was nothing special about him.

And yet he was friends with Xie Lin, whose family was worth hundreds of billions.

Xie Lin came from one of Jiangcheng’s top families. He was refined and aloof, distant and cool toward everyone, and extremely hard to approach.

Some people said Chi Songyu was just lucky. He’d used his pretty face and the advantage of being close by to get in with Xie Lin. They claimed the two were supposedly business partners, but in reality Chi Songyu had probably used his looks to charm Xie Lin.

Chi Songyu gave a faint, amused smile when he heard that, but didn’t comment.

The rumors weren’t entirely wrong. In college, he had deliberately befriended Xie Lin by becoming his roommate. Then, when Xie Lin was starting his business, Chi Songyu joined at just the right time and became an important partner in his company.

After all, with Xie Lin’s status, becoming his friend was like saving yourself ten years of hard work. Who wouldn’t take a shortcut?

But saying Xie Lin had been charmed by him was giving him far too much credit.

Xie Lin was aloof and indifferent, lukewarm toward everyone. His only concern was work, and in all the years they’d known each other, Chi Songyu had never seen him fall for anyone.

Chi Songyu even suspected Xie Lin had no interest in romance or desire at all.

Until, at a party, an unexpected and outrageous encounter left Chi Songyu pinned beneath Xie Lin. He cried until his voice was hoarse, but still didn’t get a chance to rest.

Xie Lin had always been detached by nature. Apart from work, nothing could claim even a fraction of his attention.

Until a drunken night of chaos with a close friend left him, usually so calm and self-controlled, completely out of control. He got a taste for it and couldn’t get enough.

Afterward, Chi Songyu tried to avoid him, dodging him at every turn. Until Xie Lin pinned him to the wide, cold desk in his CEO’s office, leaving him nowhere to run

Chi Songyu’s head and back ached. “I really don’t want to be my buddy’s wife!”

Ji He was a controversial young star in the entertainment industry.

Five years ago, he unexpectedly spent a night with Shao Zongyan, Second Master of the Shao family.

He was timid, but bold enough to secretly give birth to that man’s child.

Rumor had it that Second Master Shao was cold and heartless, and kept everyone at arm’s length.

There was another rumor that he was bedridden with a serious illness and near death.

·

Before Shao Zongyan closed his eyes in the emergency room, he thought:

This must be the last thing I ever see.

But when he opened his eyes again, a beautiful, slightly haggard face filled his view.

The handsome man hugged him in delight. “Thank goodness, baby, you’re awake. Daddy was worried sick.”

Baby-version Shao Zongyan frowned. “How dare you? Let go!”

Instead, the handsome man puckered his lips and kissed his forehead!

Something strange had happened in the Shao family.

Second Master Shao had been saved, but he was a completely different person.

He drank milk and watched cartoons.

And when he went out, he insisted on holding the old master’s hand?!

Even more ridiculous, when he ate fried chicken and hamburgers, he demanded a kids’ meal with toys and picture books.

·

Baby-version Shao Zongyan hadn’t figured out how to return to the Shao family when he received a huge fridge, an air conditioner, a robot vacuum, a smart robot butler, and a complete deluxe set of Ultraman.

Ji He’s phone rang.

Shao Zongyan had a feeling this call was important.

The voice from the phone, on speaker, sounded familiar, but strangely soft.

“Daddy, Chubao missed you so much!”

“And… can Chubao talk to Uncle Shao?”

Ji He hung up immediately.

“The general economy is bad, and even scammers are getting worse at their jobs. Pretending to be my Chubao, and they couldn’t even use AI to make the voice sound like a child.”

The stern-faced little Shao Zongyan: “…” [reaching out] That might really be your kid.
