Becoming a Kept Man in Ancient Times

Jiang Jiwen was reborn as a sickly man who panted after every few steps, and ended up in bed with the man who was about to marry his younger brother. Of course, he had been set up. The man's parents had died early, leaving him a huge inheritance. Jiang Jiwen's father had arranged a marriage between him and the man long ago. But then the man came down with a high fever and lost most of his sight, and Jiang Jiwen's younger brother backed out. Jiang's father couldn't bear to lose the man's fortune, so he thought of his first wife and eldest son, Jiang Jiwen, whom he'd abandoned long ago. Jiang Jiwen: "..." Let some other sucker take this job. He certainly wasn't going to. * Song Hanhe had to die once before learning he was living in a book, as an insignificant supporting character. In his previous life, he'd been forced to take Jiang Jiwen in. But Jiang Jiwen's medicine and treatment ate up most of his money. Later, Jiang Jiwen fell in love with a woman, ran off with the rest of Song's money and eloped with her, leaving Song to suffer through life under everyone's gossip. This time, he'd returned to a turning point in his life. He'd rather die than take Jiang Jiwen in again. He told Jiang Jiwen, "I know it was all a misunderstanding. I don't blame you. You can go." And so Jiang Jiwen left. After that, Song Hanhe kept hearing Jiang Jiwen's name. Jiang Jiwen found a job at a bookstore. Jiang Jiwen became the bookstore's owner. Jiang Jiwen started writing books. Jiang Jiwen went to an academy. Jiang Jiwen passed the county-level civil-service examination... Little by little, he realized this Jiang Jiwen didn't seem to be the same Jiang Jiwen he'd known.
