Xing Mo transmigrates into a male-lead power fantasy called The Emperor's Record, becoming a nobody living in a ramshackle shantytown. Before he can even walk steadily, he's already scrambling to earn enough for two meals a day. He works up a burning determination to kick the male lead away and throw the female lead far from him, but then he cracks his head over a steamed bun and forgets everything except one unforgettable person.
Fortunately, he has a pretty face, and the young master of the neighboring Gu family gives him food every day.
The young master is named Gu Chengyu, exactly the same name as the person he can't forget. But how could that person be a man? Impossible!
Gu Chengyu is as pale as a porcelain doll, with a slightly upturned chin that makes him look incredibly refined. He's always perfectly mannered in front of others, but in private he secretly calls Xing Mo a bad guy, steps on his feet, and makes him pick chestnuts for him to eat.
Xing Mo can afford that much trouble.
After all, being greedy for money and power isn't scary. Going hungry is the worst thing of all.
Wait, where did the young master with those round, love-filled eyes from his dream go?
Gritting his teeth, Xing Mo has no choice but to do everything in his power to find him.
What is a beloved? Can you eat it?
No, but he can warm my bed!
Xing Mo: Since you called me a bad guy, you'll have to call me that for the rest of your life! So what if you're the son of a high official? Even the moon in the sky has to become the porcelain doll in my nest.
Gu Chengyu: I want the most comfortable nest in the world!
Xing Mo: Consider it done.

1. This is a male-pregnancy story. I've changed the terms to make things clearer (in case anyone missed it, here's the highlight: this story includes childbirth).
2. This is still a slow-burn story.
3. The story starts in September. As usual, I'll try to update daily, but I'll take a leave if something comes up. I won't abandon it.
Theme: The future is full of possibilities!
