As a devoted practitioner of the Ruthless Dao, Yi Cheng has traveled through various immortal cultivation worlds, playing the role of an arrogant, cool, and dazzling ruthless dragon-protagonist.
After an accident, he transmigrates into a modern wealthy-family novel. There is no magic or elixir, and he becomes a sickly cannon-fodder character whose body is even weaker than an ordinary person's, leaving him gasping for breath after a few steps.
In the book, the cannon fodder is infatuated with the male lead, Xie Xianzhi, and uses underhanded means to marry him. After they marry, however, Xie Xianzhi treats the cannon fodder like air, showing him no warmth or interest. In the entire six months of their marriage, they never even share a bed.
One day, the cannon fodder catches Xie Xianzhi gazing fondly into the eyes of his school-days crush, and dies on the spot from the shock.
Yi Cheng arrives.
With a little blood at the corner of his mouth and a pale, fragile face, his brown eyes gleam with eerie excitement. "Killing my husband to prove my Dao? Just what I wanted."
Xie Xianzhi: ???
Xie Xianzhi is forced to marry the young master of the Lu family. Considering the young master's frail health, he puts up with all his unreasonable antics.
Gradually, he realizes the young master's changed a lot.
He spends all day meditating to quiet his mind, and sits in meditation all night instead of sleeping.
Xie Xianzhi wonders if his cold demeanor has driven the young master mad, so he decides to treat him a little better.
One summer night beneath a sky full of stars,
he takes the young master up a mountain to stargaze. The mood should be romantic, but the young master looks indignant. "When will spiritual qi revival happen in this world?!"
Xie Xianzhi: ?
On an outing in the suburbs,
he casually buys a bouquet of flowers for the other man. He expects the young master to be moved, but the young master throws the flowers away, looking utterly disgusted. "Flowers? Who wants something so delicate? Who are you insulting?!"
Xie Xianzhi: "..."
The young master is so irritating that Xie Xianzhi gives him a thorough tormenting that night.
-
After being tormented, Yi Cheng becomes even more incorrigible.
He gives up on cultivating immortality. Now he wants to kill Xie Xianzhi!
Unfortunately, this body is far too frail. Every time, he ends up defeated in the other's hands, arms, and bed.
One day,
Xie Xianzhi once again fishes Yi Cheng out from under the covers, where he's lying in wait with a hemp rope in hand. His face is helpless, with a hint of indulgence:
"Cut it out. I won't divorce you, all right?"
Yi Cheng: ~(&_
