Reborn: Married First, Fell in Love Later

After Ji Yiling died, he learned that he had been living in a melodramatic rich-family BL novel.

And he was nothing but a disposable supporting character, drowned early in the story to bring the main couple together.

In the original story, he deeply loved the male lead, Xie Zimu, and treated the protagonist, Ji Qingyu, who was also his younger brother, cruelly. In the end, heartbroken and disillusioned, he jumped into a lake on the day the two got engaged.

That was the version people sighed over and gossiped about after his death. The truth was, someone had knocked him out and thrown him into the lake.

After recalling the entire plot, Ji Yiling scoffed at his former self for being blind enough to fall for the male lead. He was utterly disappointed in his parents, who had been indifferent to their son’s death. Carrying the resentment of a drowned ghost, he returned to the engagement party.

After getting even with everyone who had disgusted him in his past life, Ji Yiling left the Ji family in high spirits.

Ji Yiling: Time to find my rich biological dad~

-

It turned out Ji Yiling was not the Ji family’s biological child. His real father was Shang Yan, the wealthiest and most powerful tycoon in the imperial capital.

Shang Yan had been childless for years. Later, he adopted a boy from an orphanage: Shang Chengxuan, who now ran the Shang family’s business. It was only at the end of the story that Shang Yan learned Ji Yiling’s true origins. He held a grand funeral for him, and, having heard that Ji Yiling’s dying wish had been to have a devoted partner by his side, eventually decided that Shang Chengxuan should marry Ji Yiling to comfort his spirit.

Shang Chengxuan was a man of deep feeling and loyalty. For the rest of his life, he considered himself a widower.

Ji Yiling rubbed his chin. So after he died, he would have not only a rich biological dad, but also a handsome husband who stayed faithful to him.

Ji Yiling sprinted toward the Fu family: Here I come!

Everyone said Shang Chengxuan had married a dead man only because Shang Yan had pressured him, and lamented that he was foolishly devoted and obedient.

But every night, Shang Chengxuan took a photograph from the bedside drawer and reverently kissed the handsome young man in a blue-and-white school uniform.

Then, in his gentlest voice, he said to the person in the photo, "Good night, A Ling."
