Back in High School with My Cold Ex-Husband

[Currently drafting; scheduled to start in October 2026. Please follow my upcoming novels, After Tricking My Future Husband into Being My Sidekick and My Younger Brother’s Fiancé Marked Me!]

Lin Chi fell in love with Shen Cheng at first sight in his previous life.

At a lavish banquet attended by countless people, he singled Shen Cheng out and asked him to marry him. Shen Cheng silently agreed.

Throughout their five years of marriage, Shen Cheng was the perfect lover, but Lin Chi never felt even a trace of love from him.

Shen Cheng never got jealous or angry. He didn’t even seem... human.

Exhausted and heartbroken, Lin Chi wrote on the last page of their anniversary album: “I don’t regret it, but I hope we don’t meet again in our next lives.”

The year they divorced, Shen Cheng was in a car accident. By chance, Lin Chi opened his diary and finally learned how hard Shen Cheng had struggled to hide his sickness and obsession to keep their marriage together, trying to learn how to act like a normal person in front of him.

In the years before he met Lin Chi, everyone feared Shen Cheng and kept their distance.

-

After an accident, Lin Chi went back eleven years in time. The road was empty, with no one in sight, desolate and lonely.

When he looked up, he saw Shen Cheng sitting in his own luxury car, smoking.

Shen Cheng glanced at him through the window, then drove off in his luxury car, leaving him on the roadside.

Lin Chi: “What the hell?!”

You heartless bastard!

To make up for the regrets he and Shen Cheng had in their previous life, Lin Chi did everything he could to get into the same dorm as Shen Cheng.

For Shen Cheng’s birthday, he gave him a gold-plated clock, but Shen Cheng turned pale and refused it.

When Shen Cheng moved, Lin Chi brought four of his closest friends to help celebrate, only for Shen Cheng to coldly tell them to leave.

After sticking close to Shen Cheng for a while with no progress in their relationship, Lin Chi sadly concluded that they really weren’t right for each other.

Shortly before graduation, Lin Chi went to move his things out of the dorm with a heavy heart, only to hear Shen Cheng on the phone. The obsessive restraint in his voice felt strangely familiar.

“When I’m with him, I don’t feel like a normal person at all.”

“I’m afraid that if I get jealous, he’ll think I’m being ridiculous.”

“If he does that again, I can’t promise I won’t lock him up.”

Lin Chi: Crap.

Wasn’t that from Shen Cheng’s diary in their previous life?!

★Coming soon 1: After Tricking My Future Husband into Being My Sidekick [Reborn]

Jiang Yang had lived like a young master for twenty years. On his birthday, his family went bankrupt, and overnight he became a laughingstock.

It was Zhou Qi who took in this useless pretty boy, cleaned him up, and cared for him.

For the next seven years, Jiang Yang helped Zhou Qi build a business from nothing. They weren’t rich, but they lived a peaceful, happy life.

When Jiang Yang was twenty-seven, Zhou Qi died unexpectedly. Holding Zhou Qi’s portrait, Jiang Yang thought, If only I’d met him sooner.

-

Jiang Yang got his wish and returned to the age of eighteen.

Back then, he shone like a star, while Zhou Qi... lived in a parking shed in an old residential complex, ate only two meals a day, and wasted his days away, barely making a living.

Jiang Yang thought Zhou Qi had suffered too much, and vowed to improve his life. So he kicked open the shed door and smiled at Zhou Qi. “Hi. The lottery ticket you bought last week won five million. You can claim your prize starting today.”

Zhou Qi: “...Are you crazy?” He’d bought a Double Color Ball ticket, not that lottery!

“But you have to claim it by the deadline, and you’ll need to do some work for it. For example, you could be my sidekick, and I’ll pay you on time every month.”

“Is this how employers hire people these days, making them do the work and pay for everything themselves?”

-

Zhou Qi realized that the young master who’d approached him might not be a scammer after all.

He lived in a luxurious mansion, wore designer clothes, attended an elite private school, and even offered money to pay for Zhou Qi’s mother’s treatment. The leaky parking shed where Zhou Qi had lived for more than ten years had even been repaired at the young master’s expense.

So Zhou Qi reluctantly agreed to the young master’s request.

After following him to school, Zhou Qi discovered that the young master was unpopular in class and constantly bullied.

People scribbled all over his books, splashed water on his chair, and even cut the straps on his backpack.

The sight of the young master with red-rimmed eyes broke Zhou Qi’s heart. He swore he’d protect him and make sure no one bullied him again.

On the young master’s birthday, Zhou Qi couldn’t bear to disappoint him, so he carefully prepared a present. But when he arrived at the mansion, he saw that all the people who’d bullied the young master were gathered there to celebrate his birthday.

The one who’d scribbled on his books was the young master’s childhood friend. The one who’d splashed water on his chair was the new transfer student who had a crush on him. And the young master actually had bodyguards!

Zhou Qi was furious.

What a bunch of phonies. It had all been an act!

★Coming soon 2: My Younger Brother’s Fiancé Marked Me!

Jiang Shouyue is strikingly beautiful, coolheaded, and decisive. He is the most prestigious Omega in the empire, an untouchable beauty countless Alphas want to possess.

His husband is away from home most of the year.

The one who lives with him is his younger brother’s fiancé, Xie Chenzhou. They’re due to get married within the year.

Out of love for his younger brother, Jiang Shouyue often takes care of this future member of the family.

For example, he lets him stay at his and his husband’s home.

He lets him go through his heat without taking suppressants.

He even lets him call him “baby” instead of properly addressing him as “older brother.”

When Xie Chenzhou loses control during his heat and asks to spend the night in Jiang Shouyue’s room for the first time, Jiang Shouyue doesn’t think anything will happen between them.

After all, as the empire’s chief executive, he personally sealed away his pheromones, making him impossible for any Alpha to mark, including his own Alpha husband, whose mental strength is SSS rank.

He never expected his much-prized self-control to crumble completely when faced with a one-hundred-percent biological match.

On a stormy night, an Alpha’s sharp teeth pierce the back of his neck. Pheromones flood into him, and repeated marking leaves him disoriented with desire.

Afterward, Jiang Shouyue removes all traces of what happened and calmly tells the other man, “Let’s pretend nothing happened. I’ll get the mark removed as soon as I can.”

He won’t betray his husband’s younger brother.

But when the day of Jiang Shouyue’s scheduled surgery arrives, he suddenly discovers he’s pregnant.

At the same time, his younger brother and his husband both come home.

Theme: I will always choose you, without hesitation.
