Turns Out I'm the Male Lead in a Live-in Son-in-Law Novel

(Coming soon in my author's collection: "My Descendants Teach Me to Pursue My Nemesis". Please add it to your collection.)

[An underhanded, fake-"frail" younger crybaby, a crazy attack with a twisted heart VS a handsome, straight male receiver who shoots straight from the hip and has an extraordinary level of obliviousness]

Xiao Shuqing thought he'd transmigrated into the protagonist of a son-in-law novel. The protagonist endured all sorts of humiliation early on, played the fool while waiting to strike, and got caught up in all kinds of misunderstandings with the heroine. Her family looked down on him, and he weathered one hardship after another, until he rose to the top and gave everyone a satisfying face-slapping.

Xiao Shuqing: "..."

He jolted upright from his deathbed. The Dragon King was me all along?

He'd arrived at the exact moment of the wedding. The protagonist, a live-in son-in-law, had been stuffed into the bridal sedan to be carried to the heroine's family. Xiao Shuqing had no idea what was going on and wasn't ready for any of it when a cheerful voice called from outside, "Please help the groom out of the sedan!"

Thinking of the cold looks from the bride's family and the guests' mockery he was about to face, he had no desire to live. He closed his eyes in peace, lay flat, and waited to die.

After a long silence outside, whispers arose. Someone lifted a corner of the sedan curtain, and Xiao Shuqing glanced over irritably.

The bride outside had glossy black hair, jade-like skin, and captivating eyes. A beauty mark beneath her eye nearly stole half of Xiao Shuqing's soul.

Xiao Shuqing: "!!!" I'm alive.

The groom immediately sat up straight, tidied himself, and waved confidently. "Hello, my beautiful wife!"

Things started going wrong. The protagonist was forced to play his part, one illogical, brainless side character after another kept showing up, and inexplicable debuffs began to appear. With a pounding heart and trembling hands, Xiao Shuqing finally decided to unlock the plot of the world.

That day, a straight man quietly shattered.

Later, he discovered that his wife wasn't just a man, but a villainous, corrupted version of one.

Hehehehehehehehehe...

Xiao Shuqing thought that this time, he really ought to be a mere passerby.

He traveled all over the world, leaving his mission aside. He didn't expect the System to suddenly issue an alert one day: [Warning, warning! Host, pay attention. Supporting male character Chu Fulou's life force is critically low. Warning! Supporting male character Chu Fulou's life force is on the verge of death. He is about to be removed from the story. He is about to be removed from the story. Host, please take note.]

Xiao Shuqing: "??"

Who let my child die on their watch?!

Reading Guide:

1. The gong wears women's clothes. He may switch back to men's clothes after around fifty or sixty thousand words. He's very good at acting frail.

2. The shou is very straight, calls the gong "wife," and always thinks of himself as the gong. He still thinks he's the gong even at the end.

3. The cover shows the gong later in the story; the blurb is from the shou's perspective. This is a gong-focused story.

$The gong and shou's personality types are Green Old Man INFJ gong vs. Broken-Brow ENTP shou [based on online impressions and my own opinions, other interpretations are welcome, but please don't try to instruct me].

A crazy gong and a crazy shou, equally unhinged and perfectly suited to each other.

5. I was sick and couldn't write for over half a year, so I'm rusty. My current writing is especially illiterate, especially shitty, and especially bad <- I have a very clear grasp of my own limitations.

6. Anyway, this is a very strange story based on my personal preferences. It doesn't fit my usual writing style, and is an exception for the Guang Hai pairing. I've revised the blurb, title, and one-line summary three times. They're all from the shou's perspective, but this is a gong-focused story, because the theme has never changed.

Coming soon: "The Tyrant Lost His Memory and Mistook Me for His Husband".

[A sharp-tongued, handsome gong who lies constantly, talks dirty, and is high-attack, low-defense VS a cold, stuttering, naturally devious, hands-on tyrant shou]

Wan Changfeng brought the unconscious Wen Zhaoying home.

He'd been unconscious for seven days. If he were still breathing, Wan Changfeng would've thought he'd brought home a corpse.

On the eighth day, Wen Zhaoying finally woke up.

He opened his eyes and saw Wan Changfeng. A hint of confusion appeared in his gaze. After thinking for a moment, he clenched his fists and called to him in a trembling but resolute voice, "Hu... husband."

Wan Changfeng: "Huh?"
