The Regent's Hammy Husband [Book Transmigration]

[Sickly, dramatic, stunning beauty bottom × possessive, pretending-to-be-blind Regent top]

Lin Yuezhou, a minor actor, transmigrates into a book and becomes a regent's consort.

His husband, Pei Du, is a celebrated military hero, accomplished in both civil and martial arts, and the youngest regent in the Great Cang. Unfortunately, he's blind.

As the most familiar stranger, Lin Yuezhou plans to use his status as the regent's consort to enjoy the regent's influence and spend the regent's money, eating, drinking, and having fun to his heart's content.

He looks at his wealthy benefactor and respectfully offers him a crumbly piece of pastry, then picks a whole one for himself and savors it slowly.

The offering is off, but the attitude is spot-on.

Pei Du won't know anyway. Good enough for him, but Lin Yuezhou can't stand being treated that way!

Pei Du traded his eyesight for peace and stability at the border. Everyone says he is unquestionably worthy of being regent.

Some people resent Lin Yuezhou's usual high-handed behavior and take their complaint straight to Pei Du.

"Your Highness, the consort is immoral and shameless. Please divorce him to uphold the rules of the household!"

But Lin Yuezhou takes advantage of Pei Du's blindness, dabs some tea under his eyes to make it look like tears, then furrows his brow and presses a hand to his chest, pretending to suffer a heart attack. Choking back sobs, he says, "Your Highness, I'm innocent!"

He leans sweetly into Pei Du's arms, a sly smile flickering in his foxlike eyes as he watches Pei Du throw the accuser out.

As the rumors grow, Lin Yuezhou begins to think that even though he hasn't done anything wrong, Pei Du must have reached the end of his patience.

To avoid a tragic ending, he decides to run away.

What could be a better excuse than suddenly suffering a heart condition while out sightseeing, falling into a river, and dying?

Lin Yuezhou personally witnesses the grand funeral Pei Du has prepared for him and hears the onlookers cheer. He doesn't know what to feel.

But whatever. With his stash of gold, silver, and valuables on his back, he slips out of the city amid the chaos.

Just as he gets out successfully and starts enjoying the scenery, a burst of hoofbeats rushes up from behind.

Pei Du sits high in the saddle, his chest heaving, his breath not yet steady.

His suppressed, scorching gaze falls on Lin Yuezhou. His voice is so hoarse it barely sounds human, as if he could devour him whole.

"Where does the consort think he's going?"

Lin Yuezhou's hair stands on end, and he breaks out in a cold sweat like prey caught in a predator's sights.

"Y-You've been able to see all along?!"

Hotheaded sentinel bottom × doting, fatherly guide top. The top spoils the bottom.

[Gifted but sickly "newbie" sentinel bottom × composed and dependable but corrupted and obsessive guide top]

Cheng Dongzhuo still remembers the piercing pain and overwhelming smell of blood when his mental landscape collapsed as he died alongside a strange beast.

No sentinel can withstand sensory overload.

Neither could he.

But when he opens his eyes again, why has he turned into a rookie at a training camp?

And his instructor is his sworn enemy.

Sheng Yuan!

Cheng Dongzhuo is speechless. He wants to run, but it's already too late.

Everyone is waiting to see him make a fool of himself.

Everyone is waiting to see whether this candidate, whose talent is exceptional but whose physical fitness is atrocious, will be kicked out in disgrace or get in through connections.

Cheng Dongzhuo raises an eyebrow and grins. "Hah. I'll show you what real skill looks like."

After Cheng Dongzhuo dies, everyone notices that Sheng Yuan seems to have become a different person.

He's truly like an abyss: dark, cold, and utterly devoid of light.

Sheng Yuan wakes from another nightmare. In his dreams, Cheng Dongzhuo's spirited smile before leaving on a mission and his blood-soaked, lifeless body in the pit keep appearing again and again.

The visions stab straight into his heart.

But the heart that had been still as dead water starts beating again after this candidate appears.

The candidate officially joins the team, completes the mission with crisp efficiency, and earns thunderous applause with his final flourish as he slides his dagger back into its sheath midair.

But Sheng Yuan knows that Cheng Dongzhuo had shared that move with him alone.

Sheng Yuan's throat tightens. His burning gaze scans every detail of the man's body like a machine, finally settling on the small mole beneath his eye, exactly like Cheng Dongzhuo's.

It's him.

Explosive news!

Rumor has it that the famously strict Instructor Sheng has sent a bonding request to the Black Tower Council, and the intended partner is none other than the new sentinel, Cheng Dongzhuo!

Everyone is desperate to find out if it's true, but the two people in question don't respond.

A few days later, an anonymous photo sets the forum ablaze.

Instructor Sheng has Cheng Dongzhuo pinned against a wall, kissing him fiercely.

Cheng Dongzhuo, the person in question, looks helplessly at the IP address revealed after decoding it.

"Sheng Yuan, get over here! Who told you to post that photo online?"
