Shu Yuan was a frail, sickly beta, but a business alliance marriage led him to wed the eldest son of the Lian family, Lian Jing.
Born into a prominent family and handsome and aloof, Lian Jing was the best of the best, even among alphas. Everyone felt sorry for him, thinking he shouldn't have married such a sickly beta.
After their wedding, Shu Yuan and his husband mostly interacted at night.
His husband would seek out the unmarkable gland at the back of his neck again and again, then kiss him all over.
Although betas rarely conceived, he became pregnant with Lian Jing's child three months after their wedding.
Before he could tell Lian Jing the good news, his husband, who had been away for a month, kicked open the door with his men and abducted the delicate beauty from the bed, blindfolding him.
When Shu Yuan woke up, he was in an unfamiliar place.
His hands were loosely tied to the headboard with silk. Lian Jing, who had always been gentle with him, stared at him with furrowed brows, his expression dark and gloomy.
Lian Jing asked his assistant, "He's already married to Xi Yuzhou?"
The assistant paused, then quickly nodded. "Yes, Young Master."
Lian Jing strode forward and gripped Shu Yuan's chin, his voice full of anger and menace. "It's been a year, and you've already gotten pregnant with Xi Yuzhou's child."
Shu Yuan coughed softly a few times, confused by what his husband was saying. His beautiful eyes began to mist over. He wanted to protest, but his breathing grew labored from lack of oxygen.
Lian Jing immediately let go of Shu Yuan's chin. He gently rubbed Shu Yuan's back, then snapped at his men, "What are you waiting for? Find a doctor!"
The family doctor quickly fitted Shu Yuan with an oxygen mask and told Lian Jing that Shu Yuan was too frail. If they wanted to keep the baby, he would have to stay in bed from now on, be carefully looked after, and avoid any further shocks.
Looking at the delicate, sickly beauty in the bed, Lian Jing sat beside him and said softly, "It's all right, Shu Yuan. As long as you forget Xi Yuzhou, the next child can be mine. I'll accept both you and the baby."
Shu Yuan blinked in confusion. Xi Yuzhou was just his senior from high school. What did he have to do with any of this?
Seeing the assistant beside him frantically making faces and the family doctor repeatedly pointing at Lian Jing's head and shaking his own, Shu Yuan finally figured out the truth...
His husband seemed to have damaged his brain in a car accident and gotten his memories mixed up. He thought he was fighting his archenemy over his beloved, and that his beloved was already pregnant with his enemy's child.
And Shu Yuan was that pregnant beloved everyone was fighting over.
