Gentle, possessive younger top x beautiful, sickly bottom

Bottom's perspective: Carefully budget to raise my son.

Top's perspective: Tenderly care for my wife.

Just as Yan Jin was dying of illness, he got bound to a System. But right after he used up his System points to cure himself, a car hit him and sent him to ancient times.

He ended up as the senior disciple of a dilapidated medical clinic.

Here, he had a perpetually drunk master, a junior sister who was never home, a junior brother with a screw loose, a freeloading System, and himself, once again born frail and liable to fall gravely ill and nearly die at the slightest mishap.

Yan Jin was driven to the brink and began crawling around in the shadows.

Until he picked up a little junior brother.

*

His junior brother, Su Huai, had extraordinary talent and was calm and courteous, yet for some reason he looked down on the very Yan Jin who had raised him.

This hostile brotherly relationship continued until one day, Yan Jin suddenly discovered that Su Huai had personally prepared all his medicinal meals!

Looking closer, he found that everything was handled by Su Huai, from repairing the courtyard to choosing his clothes. Su Huai had even mended his underwear when it got a hole.

Oh no, he only realized it once he'd been spoiled rotten! He didn't want to get topped!

Yan Jin panicked and ran without a word. But before he had gone a mile, he ran straight into someone.

Oh no, he's caught up! Aaaah!

Seeing the man steadily approach, Yan Jin had a flash of inspiration. "I'm your senior brother." Don't you dare get any ideas!

Su Huai smiled and nodded, then spread the cloak draped over his arm and wrapped Yan Jin up snugly. "The night wind has picked up. I have some warming soup back at my place. Come home with me."

He paused, then added, "Senior Brother."

Yan Jin burst into tears: Damn it, I don't want to go back!

1. Yan Jin's daily daydream: The wind is so strong, life is so hard. Can't I get rich overnight?

Note: Set in an alternate world. 1v1, Su Huai is the top. No switching roles or pairings. Enjoy!

Coming soon: The Treacherous Minister's Allure

A duplicitous general top x a beautiful, teasing treacherous minister bottom

Wen Wu held power over all, was cruel by nature, and was the treacherous minister everyone hoped would drop dead.

He and Ying Bozhou had fought for years. You took out my trusted aides, I clipped your wings. In the end, neither of us came out ahead.

Who could have imagined that one day he would be granted in marriage to Ying Bozhou?

The court officials were shocked. "Those two are going to tear the place apart!"

Sure enough, on their wedding night, a long saber flew past Wen Wu's head and split the door of the bridal chamber.

Just as everyone thought their years of bitter enmity would finally erupt into a fight to the death...

Wen Wu smiled instead of getting angry. "So the general really does hate me this much."

As he spoke, he grabbed Ying Bozhou by the head and slammed it onto the table, then bit down hard on his lips.

When the kiss ended, red candles lay scattered across the floor. Wen Wu rubbed his thumb over the blood at the corner of Ying Bozhou's mouth, smiling brightly. "Come on, kill me again. Let's see who disgusts whom."

His fingertips were cold and his words were infuriating, yet their bodies pressed tightly together were soft and warm with a sweet fragrance.

Ying Bozhou's face turned bright red. "..." Damn it!

Ying Bozhou's family had served the emperor faithfully for generations, and he despised corrupt officials like Wen Wu.

After they married, he secretly planted spies and gathered evidence of Wen Wu's crimes, waiting for the right moment to help the emperor wipe out the Wen family once and for all.

Crime Evidence Log:

Second month, eighteenth day: Wen Wu planted flowers all over the garden with his maids and servants.

Annotation: Scouting the grounds. He must be up to no good.

Third month, sixteenth day: Wen Wu wandered around the market, bought a kitten, and sat on the steps holding it in the sun. Then he fell asleep and toppled into the flower bed.

Annotation: Putting on an act. He must be up to no good.

Fourth month, ninth day: Wen Wu gave a child his jade crown to play with. The child's parents were so frightened that they kowtowed in the street and begged for mercy, causing quite a commotion.

Annotation: Deliberate intimidation. Oppressing the common people.

Fourth month, tenth day:

Didn't see him. A servant reported that he had shut himself indoors since yesterday's misunderstanding and was feeling down.

Annotation: He may be plotting with someone...

The tip of the brush stopped.

Ying Bozhou stared at the still-wet ink on the page, frowning again and again. At last, he set down his brush and muttered, "I'm not going to comfort him. I'm just making sure he's not plotting anything. The realm comes first, the realm comes first."

Then he gathered all the finest things in the general's residence and headed for Wen Wu's courtyard.

Ever since Wen Wu and Ying Bozhou married, the ministers had been placing bets on when the petty Wen Wu would be executed on the spot!

After all, given Ying Bozhou's temperament, there was no way he would tolerate anyone causing trouble right under his nose.

Until one day, after court, a figure came into view beside a carriage outside the palace gates, standing far off in the drifting snow. Who else could that figure in red be but Wen Wu?

Then they watched General Ying's expression darken as he strode forward, looking every bit as though he were about to execute Wen Wu on the spot. Instead, he wrapped him up like a ball in his cloak and scolded him sternly. "Are you trying to freeze to death, coming out in weather like this?"

Wen Wu raised an eyebrow and let him fuss over him. "No. I came to meet you after court."

Ying Bozhou's hands stopped abruptly. His face turned completely red. "Smooth talker!"

The ministers: ???

Wait, isn't something off about you two?

P.S.

1v1, happy ending, Ying Bozhou is the top.

A little political intrigue. The plot is all nonsense, so don't take it too seriously. The two leads are evenly matched in strength and will fight often, but they won't switch roles or pairings.

Theme: Love should be spoken aloud.
