I'm the Failed First Love of a Proud, Destined Hero

[Cool, aloof, refined beauty on the bottom & a fiercely competitive, hopelessly lovesick Dragon-Proud Hero on the top]

[A sweet little romance with some plot, too~]

Zhu Sheng transmigrates into the role of the Dragon-Proud Hero's first love. The two fall for each other, but their feelings gradually cool. Then Zhu Sheng meets someone with a better family background, prospects, and abilities, falls for him, and breaks up with the Dragon-Proud Hero.

Later, the Dragon-Proud Hero rises to power, while the family of Zhu Sheng's new love runs into trouble. Only the Dragon-Proud Hero can save them, so Zhu Sheng has no choice but to beg him for help. He is rejected, and soon everyone knows Zhu Sheng abandoned the Dragon-Proud Hero, making him a laughingstock.

Only then does Zhu Sheng's scripted mission come to an end. He can finally escape the forced plot and begin a new life of his own.

Zhu Sheng does a great job, especially with the breakup. When the Dragon-Proud Hero begs him to stay, he leaves without mercy.

Later, Zhu Sheng goes to the Dragon-Proud Hero to ask for help saving his new love.

The usually cool and refined young man bows his head and asks for help for the first time. Zhu Sheng thinks nothing of it, but he doesn't realize that the Dragon-Proud Hero across from him, eyes blazing red with rage, has already been consumed by jealousy.

He even blurts out, "Save him? Sure. Trade yourself for him!"

Zhu Sheng stares in a daze as a thin sheet of golden paper is pressed into his hand: a Dao Companion Contract.

After that, the plot runs completely out of control. The Dragon-Proud Hero takes over Zhu Sheng's entire field of vision, and anyone who tries to get close to him gets snatched away by the Dragon-Proud Hero.

Many years later, Zhu Sheng and the Dragon-Proud Hero have become a famous couple in the cultivation world. Someone remarks, "If Venerable Xuan Shang hadn't been so much stronger than the rest of us, Zhu Sheng might not have chosen him!"

●[Little Scene]

When they're in the throes of passion, the Dragon-Proud Hero loves bringing up the past.

He pins the young man's slender wrists above his head and leans close to his sensitive ear, complaining, "Little liar, don't think I can't tell. You didn't like me at all in the beginning."

"Our love was never mutual. I was the only one in love."

"We got where we are today because I fought for you myself."

[Basically, a lazy bottom & a Dragon-Proud Hero top]

Chen Shuang is the second prince of the Demon Realm, the top beauty in the Three Realms, and a genius on the verge of reaching the top of the Heavenly Rankings. His whole life has been smooth sailing, with no disasters or hardships. Every day, he lounges on a beauty couch and complains that life is boring, until one day a bolt of heavenly lightning strikes him.

He loses all his powers and memories, and his soul is reborn as a mortal.

The mortal, also named Chen Shuang, has been unable to cultivate since childhood. To make matters worse, he has a pretty face but a lifespan of less than twenty years. His family abandons him and betroths him to a decrepit old man with no fewer than 108 concubines.

Who would have thought that on their wedding night, the old man would be killed by someone seeking revenge?

The newly widowed Chen Shuang lifts his red veil and finds himself staring into the eyes of a tall, straight-backed young man with a cold expression.

The sword in the young man's hand is still dripping blood.

Chen Shuang blinks and tentatively calls him "Husband?" He pats the spot beside him and asks cautiously, "Are we going to sleep?"

The young man had only meant to release Chen Shuang as a favor. But looking at the beauty in red on the wedding bed, his ears suddenly turn hot. He casually kicks the corpse beside him out of the way, murmurs "Mm," and then says with a straight face, "That man was here to take revenge. He didn't scare you, did he?"

Chen Shuang smiles and shakes his head: "..."

As if.

Chen Shuang pretends to be stupid and takes the assassin for his husband, planning to run away when the opportunity presents itself. But unexpectedly, from then on, his life is smooth sailing once more.

When his family gives him trouble, someone stands up for him. When he runs out of money, someone hands over their fortune. When he causes trouble, someone cleans up the mess. When someone has their eye on him, he doesn't have to worry about being abducted...

The only issue is that his new husband is a bit overbearing. He often gives Chen Shuang precious spirit herbs and pills to extend his life, saying that he can't leave him alone.

But in the end, Chen Shuang still dies.

He doesn't die of illness, but in a demon clan ambush.

That day, the young man fights alone with a sword, killing until he is exhausted. Corpses litter the land. At last, he kneels on the ground, looking around with his sword drawn and feeling utterly lost.

Chen Shuang's body is nowhere to be found.

Later, Chen Shuang wakes up in the Demon Realm. He hears that he'd been struck by lightning and unconscious for quite some time, but he doesn't think much of it and goes right back to his lazy life.

Until he hears that a prodigious young genius has recently appeared in the cultivation world, advancing in cultivation as easily as eating or drinking, crushing everyone at his level, and reaching the top of the Heavenly Rankings in just a few years.

The only thing is, this new star seems to hate demons with a passion, and the Demon Realm is preparing to send someone to kill him before he can grow stronger.

Chen Shuang happens to be bored, so he decides to go meet this human genius.

He's mischievous, so he arranges a chance encounter and pretends to be injured to get close. But the famous human genius has no guard up at all, and lets Chen Shuang stab him in the waist.

Chen Shuang finds it boring and is about to head home, but the next moment the other man pulls him tightly into his arms.

The young man, colder than ever since losing his wife, has red eyes and is actually crying. He keeps saying things like, "Don't ever think you can leave me again," making Chen Shuang's scalp prickle. He shoves the other man away and runs off without a trace.

Later, after regaining his memories and realizing he may really have been a heartbreaker, Chen Shuang: "..."

#I just have a habit of finding someone to rely on. What's wrong with being lazy?#

#Why should I have to repay a debt from my last life in this one?#

#Stop chasing after me! I really can't give you your wife back!#
