Song Yunqi is beautiful and well-behaved, and both his parents are dead.
A friend of his father's helped raise him. To save that benefactor's company, Song Yunqi agrees to marry Shen Huaixu, the bedridden eldest son of the Shen family.
Then he sees strange text floating before his eyes: [He's lying to you. The company has no cash-flow problems at all.]
[That old bastard adopted you to improve his reputation, and to wring every last bit of value out of you while he was at it.]
Song Yunqi thinks he's seeing things. But that evening, when he goes to dinner with his benefactor's son, the strange text appears again: [Ahhh, Top One is so handsome! Hurry up and pursue your wife, or your dad will send him away!]
[Skip straight to sex! I want to see Bottom Baby get fucked to tears by Top One, Two, Three, and Four!]
Song Yunqi doesn't take it seriously, until he meets Tops Two, Three, and Four...
They all stare at him like beasts eyeing their prey. At last, he believes he's the protagonist bottom of a danmei novel.
And this novel is tagged coercion, psycho, corruption, obsessive, physical and emotional abuse, and a happy ending.
What the hell? Straight man Song Yunqi gets goosebumps!
Just then, a comment saves him: [How twisted. The only straight man in the whole book is the bottom's actual husband. Everyone else is a ravenous wolf.]
Song Yunqi: Help me, hubby! Straight man, help a fellow straight man!
Living in a world where even the bed frame isn't straight, he clings tightly to his straight, bedridden husband as all those ill-intentioned eyes stare at him. "I only love you!"
Shen Huaixu is cold and heartless, unmoved by his "wife's" attempts to please him. After all, this isn't even his real wife, so why should he protect him? Hmph.
Half a year after they marry, Shen Huaixu dies, and countless people come to pay their respects.
His bereaved husband wears mourning clothes, his skin as white as snow, tears glimmering faintly in his eyes. He kneels before the coffin, breathtakingly beautiful.
On the seventh day after his death, Shen Huaixu returns and sees his "wife" weeping until he faints. And his good-for-nothing younger brother is actually... Outrageous!
That night, the Shen residence is haunted. The next day, Shen Huaixu borrows a corpse to return to his widow, planning to find him a good man to marry before moving on.
Song Yunqi: ?? I'm straight!
Shen Huaixu recalls Song Yunqi's red-eyed face as he called him "hubby." Straight?
This time, Shen Huaixu is a celebrity, wealthy, well-connected, and popular.
The next day's headline: Wealthy widower Song Yunqi seen holding hands with a top-tier star! His late husband's five-billion-dollar inheritance went to waste after all!
But Shen Huaixu's new body isn't long-lived either. He protects Song Yunqi for only a short while, and before he can find him a good husband, he leaves behind a huge inheritance and dies. Song Yunqi faints from crying once more.
Not long after, a tall, handsome, energetic college student knocks on his door. Looking disgusted, the young man says, "All you know how to do is cry. How would you survive without me?"
Song Yunqi blinks: ...
The next day's headline: His husband's bones aren't even cold, and Song Yunqi has already moved on to a twenty-year-old pretty boy! What a scumbag!
Still, when the news comes out, some people scold him, while others envy the fact that all three of his husbands were wealthy. If he dies one more time, will he shoot straight to the rich list?
Song Yunqi: No, thanks. I already have enough money!
But Shen Huaixu has been acting strange lately, looking at him with that same odd expression. Wait, isn't Shen Huaixu straight?
He is. But Shen Huaixu has figured it out: there are no good men in this world, so he has to be the one to spoil his own wife.
