The Canary Fights Back and Blows Up His Husband

Scheming, deceptively innocent, black-bellied bottom VS powerful top with an iron fist

Everyone in the interstellar world knew that the head of the Byrne family had rescued someone from interstellar pirates.

Black hair and black eyes, beautiful and guileless, with the classic looks of an ancient Earth beauty from the East. Unfortunately, he'd suffered a head injury and lost his memory.

Yet a single photograph of him was enough to spark furious discussion across the galactic web.

People said that the famously dispassionate head of the Byrne family had finally "fallen for a pretty face" and would soon be at the beauty's feet.

Others predicted that the cold-hearted family head wouldn't stay devoted for long, and even placed bets on how soon he would abandon the beauty.

That was until Yu Wenyan appeared again at an auction. Wrapped in an oversized men's coat, he lowered his eyes meekly.

The person beside him held his hand and raised bidding paddles with casual ease.

The man casually bought a priceless ruby crown, as if it were nothing more than a trivial toy for the bird in his cage.

After a disaster, Yu Wenyan was stranded on a garbage planet, with no memories and no money. Then he was kidnapped and held hostage,

so his captors could extort the most powerful man in the interstellar world.

Yu Wenyan thought, These people must be out of their minds. I don't even know him. Why would he pay...

"Fine. I'll pay. Let him go."

Yu Wenyan: "???"

And just like that, he was whisked home by a stranger.

"I paid the ransom, so you belong to me."

Yu Wenyan: "Mm-hmm. Thank you for saving me, sir. I'm very grateful."

He knew better than to fight the tide. When you live under someone else's roof, you have to bow your head. So he accepted the man's occasional advances, and ended up in his bed.

Until the man handed him a notarized marriage agreement and asked him to become his spouse.

Yu Wenyan: Thanks, but I'm not interested.

But after eating, drinking, and enjoying the good life for so long, he ought to repay the man somehow.

So... with a loud boom, he sent a shell straight into the house and used the chaos to make his escape.

When Shu Qingyan Byrne returned to find his home in ruins, he laughed in a fury.

Fine. His house was gone, and his wife had run away too.

Outwardly cool, inwardly calculating top VS lively, spiky-haired cat-like bottom

The Ming family was on the verge of bankruptcy.

Overnight, Ming Yan went from a rich young master to a pauper.

For his family, Ming Yan was forced to come out and seek a marriage alliance.

Sitting in a cafe, he looked at the person across from him, with their lumpy face and imperious attitude.

He felt that this was probably all life had in store for him.

But after his blind date left, someone pulled out a chair and sat down, revealing a face Ming Yan knew all too well.

Lu Jian, the Ming family's archenemy, the business world's biggest old fox. He and the Ming family had been at each other's throats for years.

Ming Yan thought he'd come to laugh at him.

Lu Jian pushed a contract toward him. "Want to take a look?"

Ming Yan: "...What is this?"

The other man was silent for a few seconds. "A marriage agreement."

Ming Yan: "???"

"I'll pay off your family's debts. In return, you marry me."

Ming Yan stared at him for ten seconds, making sure he hadn't been possessed. "Why?"

"You don't need to know. Just tell me if you're willing."

Ming Yan gritted his teeth and signed, but married life turned out to be surprisingly peaceful.

Lu Jian didn't restrict his freedom or interfere in the Ming family's affairs. He even really helped the Ming Corporation through its crisis.

But Ming Yan didn't dare let his guard down. This man was ruthless and cunning, the sort who'd devour you without leaving a trace. He didn't believe Lu Jian was doing charity work.

A friend asked him what he planned to do in the future.

Ming Yan said, "We'll get divorced eventually anyway."

But Lu Jian overheard him.

At first, Ming Yan didn't think much of it. After all, theirs was only a marriage of convenience.

Until Lu Jian, usually mild and detached, changed expression and pinned him against the wall, his voice dark and menacing:

"Divorce? Don't even think about it."

*

Later, Ming Yan learned that the bastard had been secretly in love with him for eight whole years.

Eight years.

Every time Ming Yan called him a smiling tiger, every time his older brother and Lu Jian went for each other's throats in business,

this man had been secretly in love with him all along.

When Lu Jian heard that Ming Yan was going on a blind date, he was more anxious than anyone. He canceled every meeting and rushed over, yet insisted on putting on a calm, composed front.

Ming Yan pursed his lips as he watched a certain man busy in the kitchen.

"What a phony."

May each year be like this one, and each day like today.
