Yan Anqing, a crybaby, transmigrates. When he opens his eyes, he finds himself surrounded by corpses with their heads severed, while a man with a cold, sinister gaze and a half-smile has his hand around Yan Anqing's throat.

The man's grip tightens, as if he means to snap Yan Anqing's neck.

Yan Anqing: ...I really want to cry. QuQ.

The man studies the trembling, red-eyed youth in front of him, who looks like a rabbit. Hot tears dampen his cold, bloodstained fingertips.

Sobbing, Yan Anqing shuts his eyes and braces himself for death. He must be the first cannon-fodder in transmigration history to die the moment he arrives.

But the expected death never comes. He feels the grip around his neck slowly loosen. When he opens his eyes again, the man is holding his hand and driving a dagger into his own chest.

Blood sprays across Yan Anqing's face.

The man wipes the blood and tears from his face. His voice is calm and low, as if he feels no pain.

"From this day on, you are the deposed crown prince, Song Chongyun."

And the "Song Chongyun" in front of him has red-rimmed eyes and a soft, plaintive voice.

"Don't kill me... I'll do whatever you want."

For the first time in his life, the usually cruel and heartless Xiao Zhifei feels a brief flutter in his icy heart.

After years in exile, the deposed crown prince returns to court one day, only to become the "betrothed husband" of the Great General of the North.

Everyone knows General Xiao is so mad he would even kill his own uncle. Who knows what kind of torment the deposed crown prince will suffer at the hands of this madman?

Surely he'll be sobbing every night.

He does cry, but the reason is:

"General, don't touch me. Your fingers are so rough."

Xiao Zhifei has always been cruel and heartless. At first, he only means to use this impostor posing as the deposed crown prince. If the boy proves obedient, Xiao will grant him a fake death once he's served his purpose and set him free.

But before even half a year has passed, Xiao regrets it.

==

Later, during a banquet at the imperial city, Yan Anqing takes advantage of Xiao Zhifei being drunk and tries to sneak away.

But before he can even reach the city gate, someone catches him.

With a slight drunken haze in his eyes, Xiao Zhifei carries him over his shoulder and makes a wide circuit around Jian'an City before tossing him back into their bedchamber.

Unable to hold back, he presses his face against Yan Anqing's, their lips almost touching, almost kissing.

"If you dare leave, we'll die together."

[I've been mad for a long time, mad for you.]

A quick promo for my friends' novels:

My friend A, Shu Qi: A fake playboy seme x a sweet, demure uke who turns the tables. Working by day, getting some at night, with intense push and pull and tons of sweetness. The New Boss Keeps Wanting to Work Overtime with Me

My friend B, Hai Bailian: A cold, reserved CEO x an innocent, adorable beast. A twisty plot and a super-sweet romance, a delight for furry fans. When the Adorable Companion Beast Pretends to Be Human

Notes:

1. The romance is the focus of the story, with the plot playing a supporting role (around 35%).

2. The plot exists to serve the romance, and all the logic follows the author's elementary-school-level reasoning. This is a fictional world, and all the worldbuilding is my own. If something doesn't make sense, it's because this fictional world doesn't make sense, not because of me, okay?

3. The seme is not a good person and goes mad from time to time, in different ways.

4. Marriage first, love later (sex first, love later). Fake crown prince x genuinely unhinged man. The uke grows over time and gradually redeems the seme.

5. I don't usually delete comments. If yours gets deleted, it's probably because a moderator removed it for a reason.

Blurb:

For the first twenty-five years of his life, Song Wangxing has had it easy.

He's the youngest son of the Song family conglomerate, raised with a silver spoon in his mouth. He's a graduate student in biology at Jing University, with a fiance who loves him dearly, friends, and confidants. He's a textbook winner in life.

But when the truth comes out that he's the family's fake young master,

Song Wangxing is kicked out of his home in the middle of the night. His thesis is accused of being fraudulent, putting him on the verge of expulsion, and his childhood sweetheart fiance cheats on him right in front of him. The lover even comes to his door to flaunt the affair.

Overnight, he falls from the clouds, and countless people wait to laugh at his misfortune.

Yet a limited-edition Rolls-Royce still pulls up outside his home on schedule. The research results from the lab under his name win a Nobel Prize, a leading expert in the field personally takes over his studies, and Fortune 500 companies rush to send him job offers.

And the rumored Prince of Shengjing, who looks down on everyone and keeps strangers at a distance, shows up every day at his door with flowers, refusing to leave. "Hey, my dearest... sweetheart? Stop being mad and answer the phone, okay?"

[No, no, it's all my fault...]

[That bastard cheated because he was blind. What does that have to do with me? You can't take it out on me. Hey, hey, hey...]

Everyone: ? Weren't these two archenemies?

Good heavens, is this what your archenemy is like?

-

Qin Shan is as picky as his privileged upbringing would suggest. Whatever he likes, he wants the very best.

He drives a limited-edition sports car, wears watches worth at least a million, and loves French cuisine. He has at least ten Michelin-starred chefs on call at home, and he loves looking at the stars. The largest scenic area in all of Shengjing belongs to him.

Even the fish he eats has to be air-freighted from Norway every morning.

There's just one exception: every time he comes within ten meters of his unrequited love, he gets told to get lost in a voice cold enough to freeze someone solid.

When the young master gets into trouble this time, the prince personally has someone draw up a complete plan. But when the moment arrives, he suddenly changes his mind.

Not only does he roll up his sleeves and cook, he also travels thousands of miles through a blizzard to head into the mountains in the middle of the night and bring the boy home. He nearly dies with that pampered young master in a remote mountain wilderness.

A friend asks him why.

The handsome, stern-faced man leans against his Harley motorcycle, the ember at his fingertips flickering in and out. Hidden in the night, his face is bathed in a faint golden glow from the streetlights.

He lowers his head and suddenly gives an inscrutable little laugh. "He cried... I couldn't bear it."

His friend is utterly stunned. When it comes to being lovesick, this guy is unbeatable!

Who would have guessed he really would win the beauty's heart in the end?

#Fine, goodbye then. The next one will be more obedient.

#Who could have forced his way into love, but chose pure romance instead?

#Well done, kid. You really figured out how to be in love.

#Being lovesick is the best makeover a man can get!

Theme: Be an upright and honorable person!
