Twelve Years After the CEO Was Left a Widower Raising a Child

The wealthy Ji and Shen families are sworn enemies, yet news of a marriage alliance between them has surfaced.

One is a liberal, the other wild and untamed. They clash at every turn, sparks flying constantly, yet are remarkably in sync in bed.

Hoping to get along better, they both throw themselves into the task without a word, until Ji Zhufeng starts vomiting frequently and discovers he is pregnant.

Ji Zhufeng: I'm a man! I can give birth too?!

The baby's arrival softens their relationship, and they only argue once in a while.

On an utterly ordinary day, a misunderstanding causes the couple to fall out. In a fit of anger, Ji Zhufeng leaves home.

And he is gone for twelve years.

Standing on an unfamiliar street, he hears that Shen Jinnian, now thirty-six, is about to marry someone else.

Realizing he has transmigrated twelve years into the future, Ji Zhufeng vows to make a fortune and win custody of the baby.

But he can't adapt to the changing times and hits a wall at every turn. Swallowing his grievances, he can only call Shen Jinnian and say, "I'll agree to the divorce, but I want half the money."

There is silence on the other end for half a minute. Then a low, soft voice answers, "No divorce. Everything is yours."

Ji Zhufeng finally returns to the home he knows, so excited to hug his sweet baby.

The rice-ball toddler from his memories is nowhere to be seen. In his place is a rebellious, edgy teenager, looking down his nose at him. "What an arrogant stand-in, daring to walk right into this house."

"..."

Ji Zhufeng smiles. Ji Zhufeng decides to teach him about the power of blood ties.

His big boy gets chased around the courtyard like a little chick. Wailing, he spots his savior and rushes over, eyes shining. "Dad! This stand-in's gone crazy! Get rid of him!"

Shen Jinnian grabs him by the shoulder and makes him stand at attention to take his punishment. "Allow me to introduce your real dad."

What?!

As an older, rebellious, edgy youth, Ji Zhufeng quickly gets his big boy under control.

He waits on him hand and foot, pours his tea, does whatever he's told, and is utterly devoted.

Ji Zhufeng is happy with everything, except...

After twelve years apart, Shen Jinnian, once wild and untamed, has turned into a stiff daddy, a cool and aloof Buddha-like man.

Ji Zhufeng: Tsk, what a fake.

No matter how much he acts out or makes things difficult on purpose, Shen Jinnian takes care of him with gentle patience and never argues or fights with him.

It's like living with a stranger. Ji Zhufeng finds it boring and wants to run away again.

But this time, he doesn't get away.

The man fixes him with a dark stare, keys dangling from his fingertips, and tempts him to come take them if he wants them.

Ji Zhufeng's heart races, and a shiver runs through his tailbone like an electric current.

This is great! He's finally been waiting for this!

For the next three days, whoever wants to go out is a little dog.

In the hazy night, Ji Zhufeng's eyes are damp with tears. Unable to hold on to the man's leg, he rubs against his neck ingratiatingly. "Woof."

I'm a little dog. Let me out.

A man who's been pent up for twelve years is terrifying.

The rumor that the gong was marrying someone else is false. He has always been faithful.
