In her previous life, Yun Chi was an idol whose career took off before she even graduated. Then, overnight, she became a pitiful young man. In this messed-up world where men can give birth, he has a timid father, a stepmother who favors her own child, a strange younger brother, and not a penny to his name.
The only thing he has: a pool of spirit spring water.
But it won't help. He has only two choices: become the concubine of the landlord's son, who has a broken leg, or marry the village's bachelor.
Yun Chi? A straight man: a kind of plant.
Yun Chi decides to take the initiative. He marries the dying landlord and becomes a widower, determined to make money, get away, and marry a beautiful woman!
By three, he could read; by five, he could recite elegant prose. The Xie family's prized son, graceful and refined as jade, saw his bright future come to an abrupt end the day the Xie family fell. His father was demoted, and bandits attacked them on the way home. Xie Beichen saved his father but lost the use of his legs, and the favored child of heaven was crushed into the dust.
Years later, a three-year-old boy sits on the throne, while the lame regent rules with an iron fist and holds power over the court.
When Xie Beichen opens his eyes, he runs his hands over his legs. They haven't withered and are still strong, but he can't feel them. He finds it all pointless.
What's the point of walking the same road again?
By chance, he eats a pastry that can heal his legs. He looks at his beautiful husband, who is carrying the pastry and trying to charm the son of his dead husband. Suddenly, he thinks it might be somewhat interesting after all.
Little scene 1:
The owners of pastry shops and cosmetics shops are baffled. They have the same recipes and poached the same staff, so why is Yun's Shop still doing such booming business?
Yun Chi: Fools. Do you think the product is what matters? It's the emotional value!
Little scene 2:
Xie Beichen: Why are you always seducing people, my husband?
Yun Chi: I'm charming my fans, damn it!
Xie Beichen: What's wrong with you that you like women?
Yun Chi: You're the one who's got a problem! How about you take a good look at yourself?
Xie Beichen: You're right. I haven't been doing enough. :)
At first, he was only playing around. Who knew he'd get in so deep? At last, one day, Xie Beichen can no longer stand it. He holds the person who haunts his dreams captive in his arms, his handsome face filled with long-suppressed, possessive obsession. "A father's death means the son takes his place. It's only right. Be my husband."
A hopeless flirt and theatrical bottom x aloof, obsessive, scheming top
Note: The bottom thinks the top is his roommate, but he often can't resist the temptation and jokingly calls him his son.
Theme: Work hard together to build a better future.
