[Complete]
Ning Zhanwei lived for 21 years before discovering that he was the eldest son of a wealthy family, abandoned outside their home. His father had brought him back so he could take the place of his pampered younger brother in a marriage alliance.
They said his fiance, Jiang Qi, was born beneath the combined prestige of two powerful families. Arrogant, domineering, and utterly conceited.
At their first meeting, his fiance was every bit as unpleasant as expected. Right there in public, he casually put a hand on Ning Zhanwei's waist.
"You're so skinny. Can you fulfill your duties as a wife?"
Ning Zhanwei's whole body tensed, his ears burning red as he lowered his head and said nothing.
No one knew that his legs had gone weak in that moment.
Not because he was afraid.
But because he suffered from severe skin hunger.
He had no idea what a wife's duties were, but any kind of touch was enough to make him feel amazing.
Jiang Qi was sick to death of the arranged marriage his family had set up, so he bullied Ning Zhanwei without restraint, hoping his fiance would take the hint and leave as soon as possible.
But that beautiful idiot had no self-awareness at all, always sneaking close as if he thought no one would notice: brushing their fingertips together, quietly burying his face against Jiang Qi's back for a little sniff, putting on a maid outfit to seduce him, and even daring to sneak into his bed!
Jiang Qi hauled him out from under the covers and sneered, "Ning Zhanwei, I take it your family never taught you any manners?!"
His fiance, bleary-eyed and rumpled, sat on the bed and stared at him in confusion.
After a long moment, he cautiously held out a hand.
"May I ask... respected Mr. Fiance, would you give me a hug?"
Jiang Qi: ...
Damn it. He was clearly nothing but cheap merchandise selling himself for status.
And yet Jiang Qi's arms tightened around him of their own accord.
Research shows that skin hunger is not contagious.
And yet people were astonished to see suspicious symptoms gradually appearing in Young Master Jiang.
Who was this ATM who took his fiance out and maxed out his black card?
And who was this lovesick fool who came home on time every day and eagerly served as a human body pillow?
Everyone thought the novelty would soon wear off. But no one imagined that after his wife died, Jiang Qi would remain alone. Ruthless and decisive in public, he could only fall asleep at night while clutching his wife's old clothes.
The person who was always asking him for a hug would never come back.
* He isn't really dead. He fakes his death, and Jiang Qi will win his wife back. Happy ending.
* Marriage first, love later. The seme goes from looking down on him, to falling for him, to chasing after his wife. Deliciously angsty.
* Thanks to attkoo for the super cute cover and character cards!
[Next novel: The Tyrant and the Treacherous Minister Are Reborn Together]
In his previous life, He Yun seized the throne over a mountain of corpses.
He had barely warmed the imperial throne when he came up against his greatest thorn in the side:
Li Changluan. He had helped He Yun seize the throne, risen to the highest rank in the court, and stirred up trouble in the halls of power every day. He even dared to openly defy imperial edicts, as if he wanted to climb right over He Yun's head.
At night, however, this treacherous minister would skillfully climb onto He Yun's lap and undo his jade belt with his lips and tongue. "Your Majesty is burdened with state affairs all day long. You must be exhausted. Allow me to take care of these memorials for you?"
He Yun ground his teeth in hatred, but Li Changluan's teasing made him itch with desire. "...Granted!"
He Yun had thought this wicked man would rebel sooner or later, until a poisoned arrow came flying through the air and Li Changluan shoved him aside, taking the blow himself.
The person in his arms slowly grew cold. He Yun was on the verge of madness when, in a daze, he heard the imperial physician kneel and report:
"Your Majesty... It seems the Grand Secretary is two months pregnant..."
+++
Reborn, He Yun returned to fifteen years earlier, when he was still a worthless prince.
After much soul-searching, he decided to find his greatest thorn in the side and take good care of him... No, wait, eliminate him once and for all!
He found him, only to see seventeen-year-old Li Changluan standing alone in a blizzard, shackled in chains. As the son of a disgraced official, he had been condemned to slave status, yet he still stood tall, refusing to bend.
Those proud, unyielding eyes still spoke of unwillingness, defiance, and refusal to accept his fate.
He Yun's heart suddenly gave a jolt. It was as if he could see Li Changluan standing in court again, refusing to yield an inch when speaking up for the people.
...Fine. They could have another try.
I will win this empire for you. You have boundless ambition, and I will help you fulfill it.
Brought home by the tyrant from his previous life, Li Changluan silently took off his clothes, thinking he would have to offer himself to the prince all over again.
It didn't matter. As long as he could survive, as long as he could climb higher, he would do anything.
But He Yun straightened his collar and pressed a tender palm to his lower abdomen. "You mustn't."
Li Changluan lowered his gaze to his flat stomach. ...What was the prince touching?
He Yun: Our future crown prince.
Li Changluan: ???
※ Seme's perspective. A beautiful shou who will do anything to achieve his goals and seduce his way to the top × a pretender-to-be-a-fool seme, a tyrant who has turned over a new leaf.

Theme: Don't settle for being a faint glimmer. Wait for me to embrace you, my moon.
Teacher, you deprived me of sleep, I watched it at 6 o'clock last night 😭 😭 It's so beautiful, such a beautiful novel deserves higher popularity 😭 😭 I kept crying while reading the first half of it, and the emotional concentration in the second part was also very high 😭 😭 Dada is very good at portraying "imperfect protagonists" with character flaws, but Ning Ning and Jiang Qi are like two adjacent puzzle pieces that fit seamlessly into each other's lives. Damn, you must keep writing and writing 😭 😭
Oh~ let's put it together and deduce the plot. First of all, my mother is still alive and suffering from severe persecutory delusions. My personal understanding is that this problem is caused by being under high pressure for a long time, and then slowly evolves into a mental illness. Then Ning Ning approached Jiang with a purpose, so he cared so much about the painting "Pure White Funeral", not just because it was the so-called "best painting" Be informed at all times and participate in helping. The poor little brother seemed to be the child who was farthest from the game. As for Jiang, the kid seems to have been possessed, first by police and then by Ning Ning. It just so happens that the Dragon Boat Festival has just passed, so give him some glutinous rice to drive away the demons (Bushi). Of course, he can understand that a successor with powerful abilities may only feel safe if he has mastered everything. But I hope he can learn to respect others, and then he can successfully reverse the case and pursue his wife with Meimei. Looking forward to updates
It's already very bad, why do you have to hang Ning Ning 😭
I don't dare to count how many times I have been a little lover's shit-stick during this time.
It feels so ironic, living out of hatred, forgetting my birthday, choosing revenge, choosing to end the obsession in my heart Is the story coming to an end? I feel so reluctant to let go. Has the boss considered a spin-off?
Oh, baby Ningning, you have such a strong sense of morality. He is such a well-behaved little cub, he bites like a puppy, so cute!!! If you want to escape, just escape. Anyway, your husband has to concentrate on handling the case, so don't blame yourself too much. Speaking of Jiang Qi, do you dare to say that you don't have any problems? Don't you have any idea why Shi Luochen didn't tell you Ning Ning's location? Ang? Besides, if you hadn't always disrespected Ning Ning's wishes, would he have escaped to death? He deserved it. (Of course, the author is very good, Ning Ning is very good, Mr. Jiang is very good, my mother is very good, grandma is very good, Zhi Bai is very good, Dahuang is very good, Luo Chen is very good, no gk, sk, glm, no attacking dreams, accepting dreams, no starting war, just discussion, no tearing down, no rebellion, Jiang Ning 99)
Author, what do you want to do QAQ Last second: Ning Ning, please don't talk about yourself like that, my sister looks so distressed (touch) Next second: God suddenly discovered oil, I laughed so hard that I wanted to die The young lovers finally meet (Spread flowers) But Jiang, don't accidentally pollute the nearby environment! The image of the mother is actually quite easy to analyze. It is difficult to have other people in her heart, and the proportion cannot exceed that of art or herself. I don't know if Mu Zhibai is an exception, but Ning Ning is obviously the one I analyzed above. What's more, children will rely on people they can rely on. Ningning only has his mother, but her mother is not enough for him to rely on wholeheartedly, so he will feel missing and insecure. I suspect there is an environmental component to skin hunger syndrome. In the end, it was not enough to watch. Please update!!!
Here we go again. Wow, Jiang, I have to talk about you. Aren't you busy? Why do you still have time to torment Shi Luochen? Use your brain. Shi is so calm, which means he must have news about Ning Ning. In the end, you offended someone. Okay, make it more difficult for yourself to find a wife. In fact, there was nothing wrong with him when he was young. He didn't like Jiang to begin with. Jiang was also interested in Miss Shi's family and considered his enemy. Compared to his younger brother, Shi seems to be more like Ning Ning's mother-in-law. As a result, Young Master Jiang is blind. Two final questions: 1. Has Mr. Wu really come to terms with his feelings? Can he treat Ran Yun well? 2. It was said before that Shi Luochen had an affair with the young master of the Gu family. Is it true or false? Looking forward to updates!
Wow! This chapter is great First of all, it's my mother's personality, which is probably because I'm a pervert. This kind of indifferent personality is really delicious and fragrant. It's really cool to be indifferent and distant, to be like this to everyone and everything. At the same time, he cleverly explained why his mother didn't tell Ning Ning the truth since she was alive. She has this character, and after so many years, what's the point of bringing up old things again? And it can't be said that she is not a good mother, after all, she worked hard to keep Ning Ning alive. She understood that her son loved the world. Then there is Huahuawu Island. In the comics, this place is the resting place of the dead, but in reality, this isolated peach blossom garden is a place where desperate people who still love the world find the meaning of life. It is a paradise where people can be reborn. Looking forward to the update 🐰 Finally, I have a question. With Jiang making such a big fuss, is his paternal side just watching a show?
