Xiang Xu, the Crown Prince of the Yin Dynasty, was born with a handsome face. Growing up under the strict authority of his Emperor father and his elder brother, he developed a remarkably magnanimous and resilient character. However, there was one thing that deeply bothered him: Rumors spread that he had a penchant for men, ruining his reputation and leaving him single for twenty years.
Finally, a Crown Princess arrived through an arranged political marriage. Rumor had it that she was gentle, charming, and stunningly beautiful. More importantly, she did not mind the rumors about him. Xiang Xu liked her and promised her a life of monogamy and devotion. But fate had other plans.
When he opened his eyes on his wedding night, he was transported somewhere else entirely.
Why is he no longer a Crown Prince? How did he become a “kept man” living in a tenement building, being supported by his older sister?
Why is he no longer wealthier than an entire nation?
How did he accumulate 2.05 million in debt and end up stumbling into the entertainment industry?
He could endure these things, but what about his Crown Princess? His precious Crown Princess, poof, gone just like that. What could he do? He just had to take it.
Xiang Xu is broad-minded. He finds ways to act like a modern person, working to earn money to pay off his debts, and by chance, he enters the entertainment industry. But everything goes wrong for him: He gets swindled just by walking into a shop. When people come to find him, he gets rumored to be “royalty” (implying he is acting snobbish).
Streaming a video game accidentally offends the production crew. Even when giving an award acceptance speech, he manages to create a pile of scandals for himself.
Every time he hits rock bottom, a man pops up, cursing him for being brainless and accusing him of intentionally making himself miserable just to win sympathy.
What a grievance! Justice is blind! Do I want to be hungry, framed, beaten, slandered, and blacklisted? Is it my goal to win your sympathy? It is clearly your own overactive imagination.
The man is sharp-tongued, yet he remains by his side through thick and thin. If not for the memory of his Crown Princess, Yi-Yi, he might have feared the rumors were coming true, as he had actually fallen for a man.
The man, however, looks pitifully at him: “If you want to call me Yi-Yi, I will yield to your every whim. If you do not like men, I can go to Thailand to find a way to change. But if you try to kick me to the curb, that will not happen.
You are so pitiful; you will not survive without me.”
Oh, that man is his Crown Princess, so that is fine, hahahaha.
The hell it is!
Damn it, the rumors are coming true!
My gentle and charming Crown Princess has turned into a man!
I really have fallen for a man! Please stop saying I am pitiful; I did not even think so myself! Wait, why are you always there whenever something goes wrong?
I never see you when things are going smoothly!
Mu Lianyi smiles: “Perhaps I am a husband-killer. After all, in our past life, it was I who killed you.”
