The full text costs just 5 yuan. [Synopsis]:

After arriving in a mountain village to teach, Chi Yi had only two dreams: lead the school soccer team to win the U12 league championship, and, once he had made a name for himself, grind his ex-boyfriend underfoot.

The first was about survival. The second was about pride.

Chi Yi, who never touched refined carbs, dragged the principal into eating coarse fare every day. He worked like an old ox in the fields, but still couldn't help the primary school win its first battle against poverty.

Survival had become a problem, and pride was no longer on his mind.

But Chi Yi never expected the poverty-alleviation businessman who came from the city to be his damned ex-boyfriend.

Shen Hui was still the same CEO archetype, dressed in a suit and wearing gold-rimmed glasses. Chi Yi, on the other hand, was covered in mud, a beautiful canary left ragged after a wildcat plucked out every last feather.

"You've gotten sturdier."

Shen Hui's eyes behind his gold-rimmed glasses lit up at the enchanting rosy dawn, then quickly dimmed.

"You've gotten tanned."

Unable to understand the tenderness in Shen Hui's eyes, Chi Yi thought: ...He just rolled his eyes at me!

-

Shen Hui's assistant also couldn't understand why Chi Yi had been so foolish as to dump Shen Hui, a man who stood 1.92 meters tall and helmed a business empire worth hundreds of billions.

After all

When the assistant bought Chi Yi his first car, he picked an Aston Martin.

Shen Hui lifted the 2.7-million-yuan car key with his fountain pen and asked seriously, "Do I look poor to you?"

Chi Yi didn't want to work at Shen Group from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. every day, earning a six-figure salary. He wanted to become a soccer coach.

The very next day, Shen Hui traded a plot of land in the city center with a university to create a new soccer coach position.

Chi Yi wanted to go skiing in the Southern Hemisphere at Christmas.

So Shen Hui turned the green hill behind his New Zealand mansion, where Hobbits could run barefoot, into a professional ski resort to rival the Alps.

So

"Why?! Why?!"

Shen Hui's assistant had nearly worn Chi Yi's bones down with all his questions. Chi Yi caught his breath and said seriously, "I understand all that, but why is he still unwilling to make our relationship public?"

That's right. Chi Yi and Shen Hui had been together for four years, and Shen Hui had never made their relationship public.

Shen Hui's assistant couldn't answer. It wasn't the question he couldn't answer, but the question itself that baffled him: no one could understand the pure love Chi Yi wanted.

-

Just as Chi Yi couldn't understand, after they got back together, how Shen Hui could keep a straight face when he heard such an outrageous rumor.

"Who doesn't know about the Shen family's mess? Look at Shen Hui, acting like he owns the world. Turns out he was secretly stealing his own younger brother Shen Lai's partner, and then he got dumped!"

Chi Yi: You're not even angry about that?!

Shen Hui: It's true. Why would I be angry?

Chi Yi: No, I really did dump you, but what about you stealing Shen Lai's partner?

Shen Hui: Yeah, that was true too.

Chi Yi: Huh?!

★ Opening February 19: Married to the Man I Hate (Please, please add it to your library. It's really important for Mai Mai when the novel launches QAQ)

A relationship rekindled after a breakup, pursuing his spouse after marriage, seven-year age gap. The top will cradle the bottom in his hands and raise him all over again.

[Le Qingfei's arranged-marriage partner looks exactly like his long-lost first love.

So he decides to hate his husband.]

[Ambitious rich heir, a scheming yet tender Daddy top X adorably vicious, easily lured pretty bottom]

At nineteen, Le Qingfei was forced into an arranged marriage and met the man people called a demon of capitalism.

The handsome man wore gold-rimmed glasses and a black coat, held an umbrella and a bundle of white camellias, and walked toward him through the falling snow.

Le Qingfei froze in place. The man rumored to be brutal, ruthless, and driven solely by profit looked exactly like his first love.

Coming to his senses, he shoved away the umbrella the man had tilted toward him and stamped his foot in anger. "I hate you...!"

But...

That face looked too much like his first love, and Fu Li, worth hundreds of billions, was offering far too much.

Like Harry Potter, Le Qingfei had grown up living in the storeroom of his uncle's house. He had no way to resist, and before long he was happily playing the part of a wealthy wife, carrying designer bags and dressing up to go to school every day. Before long, after getting drunk and mistaking Fu Li for someone else, he was coaxed into bed by him.

He hated the man so much, but they fit together perfectly in bed.

Halfway through, Le Qingfei sobered up and wanted to push him away, but his body felt so good that he could barely stand it, and even his insults sounded like coquettish whining.

"I hate you...!"

"Baby, I know. Let's do it one more time, and you can keep hating me after, okay?"

Waaah, you jerk, Fu Li! Waaah, that feels so good...

-

Fu Li was the eldest son of the Fu family's first wife. After being missing for many years, he returned home and swiftly reclaimed control of the family. He was calculating and ruthless in his methods.

He doted on his delicate, spoiled spouse, the product of an arranged marriage, like no one else.

Fu Li didn't mind that Le Qingfei had someone else in his heart. He showered him with money, tried every way to make him happy, and gave him a lake, a boat, and an amusement park. He accepted being treated as a stand-in and even agreed to divorce Le Qingfei and give him his freedom once he found the missing man.

But he still got jealous when Le Qingfei lay beneath him and called out another man's name.

Overcome with jealousy, he lost control! Forgot himself! Then, when he came to his senses

Why am I jealous of myself?

Fu Li was in a great mood. He kept coaxing the tearfully damp man: "Baby, let your husband kiss you again... I'll buy you a few more bags, okay?"

-

After sorting out his family's mess, and as their feelings grew deeper, Fu Li prepared to come clean to Le Qingfei.

But his baby was nowhere to be found in the villa. There was only a divorce agreement and a note:

[I found Yan Song. We've eloped. Don't worry about me.]

Fu Li: ...

Fu Li searched the whole world for Le Qingfei, ready to chop the impostor into pieces and toss him into the sea to feed the fish.

When he found him, Le Qingfei was using his card, staying in a couples' suite on an island, and had just finished a blissful spa treatment. Fu Li burst through the door, and Le Qingfei hurriedly covered his own butt.

"What are you covering?" Fu Li's brows twitched with anger. "Stick it up."

Waaah, you jerk, Yan Song! Waaah, that feels so good...
