[Dual Rebirth]
[Possessive, Overprotective Programmer Top Who Pretends to Imprison Him * Cheerful, Spacey, Delicate Writer Bottom]
Ruan Ning was reborn.
Unlike most protagonists in rebirth stories who vow, "This time, I'll take back everything that belongs to me," he was perfectly satisfied with his life before being reborn.
Aside from his childhood asthma and an untimely death caused by accidentally falling off a balcony, he had no regrets.
But why had his taciturn husband, Mr. Meng Fanchuan, started acting strangely ever since he was reborn four years into the past?
For instance, he was always staring at him with a grave expression.
For instance, he kept sneaking a look at his browsing history.
And then there was the suspicious masked man who looked awfully familiar, spotted at his new book's signing event, despite supposedly being away on a business trip that weekend.
Ruan Ning: Was he really this worried about me cheating in my last life?
But the strangest thing happened one night, when he heard Meng Fanchuan mumbling in his sleep:
"Ningning, was I the one who caused your death?"
??? Aren't we a loving, happy married couple?
Who gave him this tragic romance script anyway???!

Meng Fanchuan had always believed he was giving his frail, sickly lover the best protection.
He took care of his daily needs, monitored his health, and tried to keep him from going out alone so no accident would happen.
That was until Ruan Ning fell to his death.
Afterward, Meng Fanchuan found a large number of searches about mental health on his lover's phone and computer.
He was so shocked that he failed to notice the roadblock on his way back from the funeral.
He also forgot to check whether those searches had actually been about Ruan Ning.

One day after being reborn.
Watching Ruan Ning unconsciously furrow his brow in thought, Meng Fanchuan asked in a hoarse voice, "Ningning, are you unhappy with me?"
Ruan Ning finally couldn't hold back. He bent down and ran a hand over the floor, scrubbed so spotless it shone. "I'm wondering if your back can still function properly when you mop the floor six times a day."
Oh no. Not only is my body still as fragile as ever in this life, but your mental state seems even worse!
1. A world where same-sex marriage is legal. Expected to be a short story. One-on-one, happy ending, both are sexually inexperienced.
2. Just misunderstandings, no tragic romance. A bittersweet, sweet-and-sour tone.
3. The top is not in the best mental health, and the bottom is not in the best physical health.
