* Older, doting top / pretty, adorable bottom / height difference / silly comedy / the top is completely smitten
Ji Cunyan felt like all his bad luck for the year had struck in one month.
His boyfriend of three years had cheated on him.
There was infighting among the company's executives, and he had backed the wrong side.
His pheromone allergy had flared up, and the specialist he'd gone to great lengths to book an appointment with had suddenly stopped seeing patients.
A cheating boyfriend could be dumped, and he could leave the company and start over elsewhere. But he couldn't put off treating his illness. It might even be fatal.
Unwilling to give up, Ji Cunyan rushed to the specialist's office and accidentally stumbled upon Fu Xiuyun's private secret.
The famous Third Young Master Fu was actually... impotent?
-
Fu Xiuyun handed Ji Cunyan a contract. "I need a marriage to stabilize public opinion. Since you know about my condition, you're the most suitable candidate."
Ji Cunyan spread his hands. "What if I refuse?"
Fu Xiuyun slowly rolled the Buddhist beads in his hand. "Then you'll never get an appointment with that specialist, and you can forget about staying in City A."
Ji Cunyan didn't take long to give in and sign the marriage contract.
With his condition, whoever he married, he'd be condemned to a lifetime of celibacy. He might as well marry a rich and powerful impotent man who couldn't perform.
The specialist unexpectedly discovered that their pheromones could treat each other's conditions and proposed an intimate treatment plan.
They would have to smell each other's pheromones, hug, touch, and even... kiss?
Ji Cunyan tried to prepare himself mentally. It was all for treatment. They were just two patients helping each other. Their relationship was completely innocent!
Until one day, Ji Cunyan's waist was so weak he couldn't straighten up, and he was drenched from head to toe in his Alpha's intense, domineering pheromones.
Hot breath brushed over the bite on his gland. He lowered his head, not daring to look at the full-length mirror in front of him.
A hand gripped his chin and lifted it. A low, amused laugh sounded by his ear. "Yan-yan, be good and open your eyes."
Wait, wasn't he supposed to have a condition?
Oh, Ji Cunyan had cured him.
-
Lu Zhiheng regretted cheating and came back to pester Ji Cunyan. When he smelled another Alpha on him, he flew into a rage. "Aren't you allergic to Alpha pheromones? Whose scent is that on you, some random man?"
The "random man" sauntered out of the bedroom in a silk robe.
When Lu Zhiheng saw Fu Xiuyun's face, his anger turned to shock. "Uncle?"
-
As the head of the Fu family, Fu Xiuyun was top-tier in both looks and ability.
But he had a secret condition he couldn't tell anyone about.
He was a pseudo-Alpha. He had a gland, but couldn't release pheromones and didn't react to Omega pheromones, either.
He'd lived like a monk, free of worldly desires, for nearly thirty years. It wasn't until Ji Cunyan came along that Fu Xiuyun realized there was nothing wrong with him. He just hadn't met anyone who could make him react.
As for that ungrateful nephew who came to cause a scene, he was a perfect excuse for Fu Xiuyun to get angry and jealous, then make Ji Cunyan pay him back twice over.
Fu Xiuyun rubbed a thumb over his bodhi beads, secretly calculating: How many times should I bite him today?

Pretty Fool Gets Kept by a Scheming Rich Boy
As the only college student in his mountain village, Lin Xiyue grew up surrounded by praise. But after arriving in the capital, he became a nobody.
Everyone talked about Zhao Ciyan, the privileged, refined darling of heaven, born into a wealthy family.
Lin Xiyue scoffed. "He's just a rich kid living off his parents. What's so special about him? If I'd been born into a good family, I'd be ten times better than Zhao Ciyan!"
Poor but ambitious, he worked hard and did everything he could to get noticed. His chance soon came when his academic advisor gave him the opportunity to receive an award onstage and told him to prepare.
Lin Xiyue spent all night ironing his only white shirt, looking forward to finally getting his moment in the sun. But at the last minute, they added a speech by an outstanding student, and cut his award presentation altogether.
The person standing onstage in a sharp suit, delivering the speech, was none other than Zhao Ciyan.
Lin Xiyue fumed. "This has to be some shady deal pulled by the rich!"
-
The gossip section of the campus marketplace was plastered with handsome photos of Zhao Ciyan, and the comments were all praise.
Lin Xiyue angrily made a burner account and commented, "He's only average-looking. Money's the only thing going for him. Who knows how rotten he is on the inside?"
The comment was flooded with replies in seconds. He wanted to fight back, but the original poster blocked him.
Lin Xiyue was so angry that tears welled in his eyes. The person on that stage should have been him, and those honors should have been his!
As he sat there, heartbroken, a private message popped up.
[Walking by the Water]: I think you're right. He's rotten on the inside.
Lin Xiyue wiped away his tears and went on a long rant with Walking by the Water about Zhao Ciyan's despicable behavior. To his surprise, the other person's remarks were even sharper than his own. They must have been bullied by Zhao Ciyan, too.
They added each other as friends and agreed that once they got dirt on Zhao Ciyan, they'd expose him for good.
-
Fate brought them together in the library's study room, where Lin Xiyue ran into Zhao Ciyan. Zhao sat across from him and asked for help with a calculus problem.
Lin Xiyue stuck out his lower lip and rapidly wrote out the solution.
Back in his dorm, he couldn't wait to share what had happened with Walking by the Water.
[Beaver]: I can't believe Zhao Ciyan can't even solve such an easy problem. How did he get into this school? Did he buy his way in?
[Walking by the Water]: Should we expose him, then?
[Beaver]: This isn't enough. I'll make a move once I find something more explosive.
[Walking by the Water]: Mhm, our Beaver is so clever.
After that, Zhao Ciyan started treating him like a friend. He took him to Japanese restaurants where each person spent over a thousand yuan, and would casually give him the latest phone, a slim laptop, imported chocolate, or limited-edition sneakers.
Lin Xiyue secretly congratulated himself. Zhao Ciyan must have been won over by his personality.
No matter how expensive the gifts were, he accepted them without a second thought. Then he'd laugh with Walking by the Water about how Zhao Ciyan was rich and stupid.
-
Lin Xiyue got prettier and prettier as Zhao Ciyan kept him. He was enjoying himself so much that he didn't notice Zhao Ciyan's cold smile and playful gaze.
Until one day, after Zhao Ciyan had thoroughly had his way with him, Lin Xiyue lay limp as water, the corners of his eyes red as he glared at Zhao. "Y-You're gay?"
Zhao Ciyan rubbed away his tears with his thumb and smiled. "Yeah. You can expose me now."

Upcoming Book
Why Does the World-Weary Loner Keep Getting Cuddled?
Jiao Xin hated trouble, but before the team leader transferred away, he dumped a problem on him.
Looking at the intern, who was half a head taller than him and had a streak of purple hair, Jiao Xin could already imagine what the next few months would be like.
Jiao Xin liked quiet and solitude, but Qiao Lexun was always coming over to talk to him. Work, life, little things that didn't matter, it seemed like he had endless things to say.
He kept invading Jiao Xin's personal space, until Jiao Xin finally lost patience and asked, "Why do you have to touch my hand when you talk to me?"
Qiao Lexun, who had a hand resting on Jiao Xin's arm, replied, "So you'll pay attention to what I'm saying."
"I'm listening."
"I know, but this way you'll listen more closely."
Jiao Xin couldn't understand him, and the words came out before he could think. "This won't make me listen more closely. It'll only make me feel violated."
He regretted it a little as soon as he said it. He wasn't used to being so close to people, but he hadn't meant to hurt Qiao Lexun. Besides, Qiao Lexun had only touched his hand a few times. It wasn't as if he'd done anything terribly wrong.
He thought that such a blunt remark would make the other man back off, and that things would be easier from then on.
But Qiao Lexun only looked into his eyes and corrected him earnestly. "Violated. The emphasis is on the first syllable."
Fine.
He was now certain that he didn't like dealing with people, and he didn't like this overly enthusiastic intern who had no sense of boundaries.
The guy even insisted on waiting for him to eat. Was he going to follow him to the bathroom next?
Somehow, the two of them had fallen into a strange kind of quasi-intimate relationship. Jiao Xin didn't understand it and wasn't comfortable with it.
Yet when Qiao Lexun went away and there was nobody around to bother him, he found himself missing it.
Jiao Xin hated feeling like someone else was leading him around by the nose. He decided to keep his distance from Qiao Lexun and return to his peaceful old life.
But the more he distanced himself, the tighter Qiao Lexun clung to him.
Until one day, Jiao Xin woke up after a night of drinking and found Qiao Lexun sleeping in his bed, still inside him.
Jiao Xin covered his face. "This was an accident."
-
The moment Qiao Lexun first saw Jiao Xin, his heart skipped a beat.
Steady, elegant, mysterious, charming.
Not even the most beautiful words in the world could do Jiao Xin justice.
But that man was always saying all kinds of heartless things with a beautiful face.
Qiao Lexun sighed. "Jiao Xin, your name is Jiao Xin. Why is it so hard for you to open up to me?"
"Because I hate dealing with people."
Qiao Lexun looked incredulous. "But humans are social animals."
"That's what cavemen are for. Modern civilization and technology make it possible to meet every need while living alone."
It took Qiao Lexun N attempts to realize that he'd fallen for a cold-blooded creature.
-
He is fire. Just getting close to him will burn me.
Theme: Keep hope in your heart, and your fortunes will eventually turn for the better.
There will be an audience for this kind of writing style, so I followed it chapter by chapter 🐰 Last week, I said that there is a recent literature shortage and there are no articles that I can read in one go. I finished reading this article in just two days 🐶
I came here after seeing Xiaohongshu's tweet. It's true that many people don't like this kind of bloody plot with ups and downs. It feels like watching long-lasting Korean dramas from the current perspective, the kind where the heroine said she was going abroad last week and is still packing her luggage this week hahahaha 😏 But the author shouldn't be internally conflicted. Everyone has different tastes. Some people's opinions are more extreme. Don't worry about it. Come on! 😚
Finished spreading flowers! After chasing it for several months, I couldn't bear it when it ended 🥺 Law school and Yanyan want to be happy forever 🥺 🥺 🥺 🥺

How many surprises do you have in law school????? [Yellow pants]💛[yellow pants]💛[purple candy]kswl[orange candy] got it
Hug my dear, everyone has different tastes. It's good to follow your own ideas. Come on, [touch your head] 🤗
[Orange candy] I got it [Orange candy] I got it [Orange candy] I got it
Don't be too internal, you are very good. Indeed, the plot you wrote has so many ups and downs! The part about removing the gland is really exaggerated. I haven't seen the protagonist suffer such a serious injury for a long time. Later, I found out that it was the fake news released by the second brother, which made me feel relieved! I think this part is a very good plot. It's good to have ups and downs! In the past few years, the novels I read in JJ feel like they are all a routine account. Your article is very special. Come on 🤗🤗
Boss, maybe the readers next door prefer plots with ups and downs. Do you want to give it a try? JJ feels that she is still sweet and domineering.
