After the Sweet Little Omega Married a Powerful Man in a Vegetative State

Blurb:

[Steadfast, taciturn forensic pathologist shou x sharp-tongued, stubborn, spoiled gong]

To help the orphanage through a difficult time, Xu Yuan offered to marry a fifty-something man in place of his younger half-brother, who shared the same mother.

But it turned out the other man wasn't an old man at all. He was the eldest young master of the Ji family, Ji Qi Yi.

To make the price paid for him worthwhile, he diligently played the part of a lucky charm bride. After work each day, he would return home to wipe down his comatose husband, feed him medicine, massage him, and chat with him.

Later, he discovered that his comatose husband was having a physiological response.

So his daily duties gained one more task: relieving his comatose husband.

As time passed, Xu Yuan rubbed his aching hand and wondered, Do Alphas have physiological responses this often?

He'd heard that Ji Qi Yi was famously idle and extravagant, with a terrible temper, and that he hated Omegas most of all. After discovering that Ji Qi Yi had woken up, Xu Yuan ran away in the middle of the night.

When Ji Qi Yi heard that the Omega had run off, he said, "He sure ran fast."

A few minutes later, the tea in his mouth tasted more and more bitter. Was he so eager to tell his crush that he no longer had to look after that comatose man?

The next time they met, Xu Yuan was being harassed by his ex-boyfriend, and Ji Qi Yi chased him away.

"Thank you," Xu Yuan said, eyes lowered.

"What are you thanking me for?"

"...For helping me out."

Ji Qi Yi looked at the Omega in front of him with cold eyes and smiled. "Do we know each other?"

Xu Yuan was taken aback, secretly relieved. He quickly denied it.

"...We don't."

Ji Qi Yi's eyes darkened at his refusal to admit they knew each other. "Then why should I help you?"

Later, over dinner,

Ji Qi Yi said, "This restaurant only takes reservations from couples now. You're coming with me."

Xu Yuan: ?

Xu Yuan looked at the table full of dishes and heard him say, "Eat more. You'll look kinder if you gain weight."

Later still, on a stormy night, Ji Qi Yi showed up at his door with a laptop bag.

"The power's out at my place. I'll hang out here for a while."

Xu Yuan, who was afraid of thunder and had wrapped himself up like a silkworm, asked sincerely, "Then why don't you go to a hotel?"

Ji Qi Yi: "I'm a decent person."

Seeing Ji Qi Yi's head dip lower and lower, Xu Yuan cautiously offered, "My bed is pretty big. If you want to..."

"Where's the bathroom?"

Xu Yuan stared at him as he pulled pajamas out of his laptop bag.

Xu Yuan: …A decent person?

Next book: I Kidnapped the Enemy Nation's Down-and-Out General and Survived by Acting. Please add it to your favorites. Here's the blurb:

1. After transmigrating, washed-up actor Jiang He became a wanted fugitive who had broken someone out of prison for love. A robber boyfriend was tied up on the bed.

Jiang He, so afraid of dying that he only dared to take the subway when he went out: ? Are you kidding me!

A friend of the original host told him that his boyfriend had violent tendencies. For his own safety, Jiang He didn't dare untie Lu Tingxu either.

After spending a few days together, Jiang He discovered that the original host and Lu Tingxu had an improper relationship. He'd never played this kind of role before, so he traced a finger across the man's chest. "So, I'm your little lover?"

The next second, a man barged into his home and shouted at Lu Tingxu, "General!"

Jiang He: ...?? General?!!!

Jiang He had transmigrated into the dark secret lover in his own script, a character everyone wanted dead who was eventually shot by the protagonist.

Looking at Lu Tingxu, tied up tightly on the bed and dressed in disarray, Jiang He went deathly pale, as if he could see the end of his life.

Fortunately, because of a subordinate's mistake, Lu Tingxu needed him on the road to clearing his name, and Jiang He managed to keep his head for the time being. To avoid the original ending, Jiang He gave it his all, putting on a big act at every opportunity.

"It's all my fault for being so beautiful. I made you two brothers fall for me and turn against each other."

"Then I gave birth to one of their children."

"Honey, won't you say something?"

Lu Tingxu and his subordinate: "..."

2. Lu Tingxu had spent years at war. He was a cold, ruthless man. If the situation hadn't been dire, if he hadn't been framed for treason and kidnapped and imprisoned, he would have torn Jiang He to pieces.

But after Jiang He fell and fainted one time, it was as if he had become a different person.

"Don't you have anything to say?"

"Go downstairs? If I really go sleep downstairs, won't it break your heart?"

"I... I'm shy around strangers. If you need anything, ask my husband."

"Aaaah!" Jiang He held up his bleeding finger. "Lu Tingxu, am I about to die? Waaah!!!"

…

At first, Lu Tingxu thought this was another one of Jiang He's tricks. Even after Lu Tingxu was exonerated, Jiang He kept putting on an act in front of his subordinates.

Lu Tingxu watched him clutch his forehead, spin around, and fall perfectly into his arms. Then, loud enough for everyone to hear, Jiang He said,

"General hubby, your subordinates are so mean to me~"

Lu Tingxu's face immediately darkened.

Thinking their general had finally had enough of the secret lover's harassment, his subordinates hurriedly brought him their sharpest military knife. Instead, they saw their general carry Jiang He into a room.

The subordinates: ?

Jiang He looked terrified. "You, you..."

Lu Tingxu leaned in and kissed him, his voice low. "Say it again."

3. The next day, Jiang He rubbed his sore waist and stood at the back of the crowd, hoping to watch Lu Tingxu return in glory and receive his medal. But it wasn't Lu Tingxu who reached the pinnacle of power. It was his subordinate, who didn't look particularly smart.

Only then did Jiang He realize that the protagonist in the script was that subordinate. So... the leg he'd been clinging to for so long belonged to another unlucky cannon-fodder character?

He remembered that the protagonist eventually broke character and the plot, rose up against his superior, and became a deranged executioner.

Jiang He shut his eyes, his heart dead.

All that work, for nothing! All of it for nothing!!!
