I Turned My Archrival into a Sweet Young Husband

The most savage chieftain in history, Zhuang Mian, x the elegant, beautiful, affectionate genius mechanic, Xu Jin

In Twin Era Year 132, Zhuang Mian liberated the empire's 17th occupied territory and was awarded the title "Glory of the Empire" by the empress.

There were three famous rumors about the empire's glory.

First, he wasn't human.

Second, he kept a pampered husband.

Third, he once spent two months hunting a 3S-class mutant to extract its crystal core. When someone offered thirty million gold coins for it, Zhuang Mian refused without batting an eye and personally polished a stunning pair of emerald earrings, all to make his pampered husband happy.

Every one of those rumors was true.

The only thing people got wrong was that when his pampered husband received the earrings, he wasn't happy at all. Instead, he cried inside.

[What a waste! Those were worth thirty million!]

Recently, Zhuang Mian had occasionally been able to hear his pampered husband's thoughts like this.

[Zhuang Mian? His smile is cheap and vulgar.]

[A bully who picks on the weak.]

[He speaks so crudely, too.]

[...]

One day, after they argued, Zhuang Mian decided to get back at his pampered husband and packed him off to someone else in the middle of the night.

That night, his husband was trapped in a nightmare, tears at the corners of his eyes. Zhuang Mian clicked his tongue, but still bent down to kiss the tears away. Then he heard:

[Zhuang Mian has so many flaws, but I think I still love him.]

[I don't want to argue with Zhuang Mian.]

[I want to hug Zhuang Mian.]

[I haven't hugged Zhuang Mian in so long.]

Zhuang Mian froze in place.

And his pampered husband slowly woke up, only to realize Zhuang Mian had personally sent him into someone else's arms.
