svsss pokemon AU wips that I cleaned up a bit of my drafts

I picked Grovyle for Shen Qingqiu bc I think he has more of an aloof resting face, and I needed a pokemon with arms and legs, or else where is the fear to become a human?pokemon? stick?

Some pokemons have their usual anatomy, others were yassified(¿) to make them more appealing to the general imaginary public(¿ of whatever Airplane was writing in this au, probably a crack fic that went a bit too far from being just a joke

Growlithe White Lotus Bingup vs Arcanine Black Lotus Binghe, his fluffysness amplified X100! (I saw someone around here say growlithe of hisui was perfect for Binghe and I never let it go)

Some Moshang poke vers 💙💛 I think airplane would indulge himself a bit and make his fave oc a legendary (and a bit of searching told me there are a few Articunos around so Linguang Jun is another one too, just bigger and meaner)

cringe cumplane stuff

(Also in my hc this is another reason to why Sqq couldn't even fanthom the idea of Arcanine!Binghe being interested in him. He is an old cranky lizzard in a world of cute furry girls? It just doesn't make sense! Why would binghe prefer this old grass lizzard???)

And Bingqiu pokemon ver ❤💚 Binghe still being a big puppy♡ (grovyles are likely 0,90m tall and Arcanines are like 2,00 m tall so yeah big BIG boy Binghe)

this is all for now jsjsjs

svsss fangame where you're on a date with sqq after getting wife-beamed but bunhe is quite literally out for your blood and thus you must avoid getting killed in the stupidest ways possible. objectives?

1. prevent the date from going to complete shit.

2. survive sqq's painfully oblivious ass not getting any of your hints and, somehow, get it through his head (which will raise his affection stats)

3. escape the raging hormones of a queer mentally ill teenager's unfiltered jealousy and willingness to do anything for the object of their affection. completely unscathed.

#every time you die the death screen just goes 'bro is it rlly worth it...'#idk maybe there'll be different levels where you have to deal with a character from sqq's harem #there's a whole gallery for every stupid ass death you get #this game would genuinely be so stressful #this is so stupid #lmao #svsss #mxtx svsss #shen qingqiu #luo binghe #luo bingmei #the scum villain's self saving system

Its the jiao jiao anon again .

You keep giving me great pairings. Tell me everything how su she (Shang Qinghua) transmigrate and how will fuck jiang cheng. Is he still an author ? What was his intention with this kinda book?

I think he is still a writer but not the actual author of mdzs. He's a relatively casual fan who admires the vision and winces in sympathy every time drama gets kicked off. This is why you don't try, mdzs author! You give the people what they want and take their money. He's originally planning on keeping his head down and learning just enough cultivation from the Lan to make his life easier than it otherwise would be, then getting an urgent letter from his sick mother right before the Wen are scheduled to attack, but alas, his wandering not-cultivator dumpling sabbatical puts him directly in Jiang Cheng's path while he's frantically running for help after leaving Wei Wuxian in the Xuanwu cave. And the thing is he's still kind of reflexively haughty when he needs something? So pathetic and vulnerable. So cute. What could possibly be the harm in giving him a ride? The Wen aren't scheduled to attack Lotus Pier for ages. He can be on a ship to Dongyin by that time!

Anyway no good deed goes unpunished because Jiang Fengmian does as a general rule believe in giving credit and naming names. He should have fucking known. Now Wen Chao has a grudge against him and he's running around under a fake name wracking up credit for things he did (while trying to run away) and things he did not do (sometimes even when you have a massive army and the most powerful cultivator in the world on your side, things go wrong! He's not responsible for every problem with Wen supply lines. He's responsible for exactly one cart blowing up, and he was just trying for a distraction so he could sneak onto a ship. It didn't work and the harbour is kind of a no-go zone for him now). He comes up with a new plan: find Huaisang and use his shitty unwanted heroic reputation and talent for creative pornography to worm his way into the young master's guard, where he can get some writing done far from the front lines. Unfortunately, he once again stumbles across Jiang Cheng, who is tragically trying to rebuild his sect and searching for a missing shixiong. Shang Qinghua is still a logistics guy, because he was doing grunt work for the Lan and also I feel like that's the shape any transmigration setting is going to bend into around him. Jiang Cheng is so grateful to see a familiar face. He knows the value of a good spreadsheet. His eyes are so pretty when he's trying not to cry. The Jiang aren't in a great place during the war, but Shang Qinghua knows the sect makes it through and he doesn't remember any Jiang disciples being asked to heroically sacrifice themselves after Lotus Pier falls. Plus the food is better and there's plenty of room at the top! A veritable power vacuum. To say nothing of all the empty space in Jiang Cheng's personal life when almost everyone he loves dies and leaves him alone! Anyway this is the story of how Shang Qinghua accidentally paints a series of targets on his back, unnecessarily involves himself in the plot, and overcomplicates his life because being a sucker for a pretty face and a bad personality is even more integral to his character than underappreciated grunt work. Probably he manages to save Yanli, at least. He's not interested in being a stepfather! That's a lot of work. Wei Wuxian barely notices he exists until either he saves everyone or the second life roles around, depending on how ambitious and/or motivated Shang Qinghua is feeling. Then he hates him passionately, but it's too late. They probably eventually reach some kind of begrudging peace.

#meanwhile in svsss a noted danmei author woke up in lmy and decided that she would not be joining any harems or dealing with any #dead brother induced vengeance quests #i think plan a was to solve the plot with liujiu #because she likes enemies to lovers and has a very specific set of narrative problem solving skills #and anyway! sqq won't kill his lover right she's pretty sure you can solve murder with dick and he's always seemed very lonely #and obviously it would be ungentlemanly to snipe his boyfriend's intended disciple #an elegant solution!#but then clan leader seems so heartbroken! what has she done!!!#threesomes go against her morals as a strict otp shipper but she IS in a dog shit harem novel after all #and her tender heart has been moved by the plight of a childhood friend with a big dick. something something she also winds up the center #of a shl nyy love triangle like oh nooooo what WILL she do

We could make Sqq a transformer in his past life. Like optimus prime sorta transformer. Cybertronian.

He'd be the only surviving seeker (winged guy) on the autobots side (I don't know all the canons but I don't think they have, like, any). Pretty young when the war started - unfathomably ancient for humans, the kiddie of the group to them.

And he arrives on earth. Discovers the Internet. Immediately gets hooked on critiquing stupid Web novels in every language, which being a sentient machine he can do at great speed without forgetting anything. Decides to read the final chapter during a battle because he's so close to the end and airplane had better pull SOMETHING good. Is so infuriated (distracted) by the ending he messes up and immediately gets killed by some low level decepticon. After FIVE MILLION years of war he gets offed by some loser over a stupid human story that wasn't even very good. He dies SO furious.

And then he gets reborn a human.

He is, as the kids say, big mad.

How by Primus do they do anything??

#I can't decide if back on earth it's post reveal or not because the revelation that a cybernetic alien soldier was the one being catty in #the comment section of his harem story would break sqh. It'd be so funny if he didn't believe him tho #Sqq trying so hard to blend in when he knows basically nothing about even modern human norms outside of stories and memes #No one can decide if Sqq just has hallucinations or has been possessed by an eldritch monster #Sqq: *under his breath because his thoughts are so hard to hold on to now* I MISS being able to fly myself #Sqq: *drops important items like xiuya because he keeps forgetting he doesn't have hammer space anymore* *heavy sigh*#Sqq: *does a weird twist of his limbs because he can no longer turn into a vehicle* *mortified*#Mqf: shixiong... Is everything alright?#Sqq; who's been trying to air drop his medical information to his hard drive because he's too squeamish to say it out loud: yeah - Yes.#Sqq with great feeling: humans... Are so SOGGY. You're all so SQUISHY and full of all sorts of nasty FUILDS. I have to consume SO much #And all I get is SMELLY #No wonder your species started global warming #Sqh: bro can you not??#He adores lbhs cooking tho.#svsss #shen qingqiu #transformers #scum villain's self saving system #the scum villain's self saving system #scum villain #He's an idiot but he's an incomprehensibly ancient battle hardened 7m tall metal warrior squished into mortal form idiot #He is not picking up the signs lbh is putting down #At least once he figures out human limitations he can be a good strategist again

Day 17: Hostage Situation

AO3 link

(You know the ‘crack taken seriously’ tag? This is the opposite of that)

Ever since his youth, there had been very few things that Luo Binghe had failed at. Of course, sometimes negotiations with another kingdom fell through, or one of his wives was poisoned, or an ally would start plotting against him — but those were all easily solved. He would conquer the kingdom, cure his wife, and execute the traitor. This was simply how his life went — he would face a challenge, overcome it, and everything would return to the status quo. So, understandably, when he was rejected by an alternate version of Shen Qingqiu, who had married his crybaby counterpart, he immediately started making plans to go back and try again.

This time, when he found himself back in that other world, he was a bit more careful. He lurked around Cang Qiong, the little side-paths and shortcuts still familiar to him, even after so long, and waited. Then waited some more. Apparently, his other self liked spending so much time with his husband that it was almost impossible for Luo Binghe to find a time when they were apart. He spent at least a few weeks just lurking around the sect and observing the differences — Liu Qingge was alive for one.

He found himself spending a lot of time on Bai Zhan as he waited for his other self to finally stop acting like a housewife and leave to manage his empire in the demon realm. Even though Luo Binghe had certainly been discovering some new things about himself ever since meeting the other Shen Qingqiu, he thinks he would have still found Liu Qingge attractive, even before that. He greatly resembled his sister after all, but was somehow even more attractive — Luo Binghe spotted him returning to the Peak one day, face and robes still splattered with the blood of the beast he held over his shoulder, and had nearly collapsed on the ground from the sheer attractiveness of it.

Finally, after all those weeks of waiting, the other Luo Binghe left. Understanding that he probably didn’t have much time, Luo Binghe acted quickly — he needed a hostage, someone to threaten the other Shen Qingqiu with in order to make him agree to come back with him (he had a somewhat vague idea of what ‘consent’ meant, largely due to being expected to cure innumerable beautiful young women of things that would otherwise kill them). Based on his knowledge of the Shen Qingqiu from his own world, he knew just the person — Yue Qingyuan.

The sect leader was surprisingly easy to find and disarm — Luo Binghe found him lying face-down in his bed and crying over a bundle of old letters, which from what Luo Binghe could see, were rather poorly written and filled with swears and insults directed at him. Shrugging off this oddity, Luo Binghe grabbed Xuan Su, and tied Yue Qingyuan up with immortal binding cables, before using Xin Mo to bring him directly over to Qing Jing.

As he stepped through the portal, he heard a clatter, as the other Shen Qingqiu dropped his teacup in shock. A bit sloppy — he knew that his Shen Qingqiu would have been able to masterfully redirect the slip of his hand so the tea splashed over the face of the closest person he disliked (which was usually whoever was closest anyway). Perhaps marriage had made this one soft? Pushing the thought aside, because surely the drama of his harem would sharpen him up again, he held out Yue Qingyuan and held Xin Mo to his throat.

“Come with me or he dies!” he declared dramatically, a line he was quite used to, although usually he was the one on the other side of the threat.

“Oh,” said the other Shen Qingqiu, “I’d really rather not?”

Luo Binghe paused for a moment.

“… you’re willing to let him die then?”

The other Shen Qingqiu shrugged.

“Well, I’d really prefer not to go with you after what happened last time, and I’m sure he can escape by himself.”

Luo Binghe glanced at Yue Qingyuan, who was staring at Shen Qingqiu with teary eyes, and certainly not trying to escape at all. With a sigh, he dropped him onto the floor, where he lay like an especially depressed caterpillar.

“Who can I threaten you with then? Ning Yingying?”

“Eh.” said the other Shen Qingqiu, with uncharacteristic apathy. Luo Binghe started to wonder if this was actually a version of Shen Qingqiu, or if instead this was a timeline where a different soul completely just happened to have the same name and face.

“You would at least feel bad if I burnt the sect to the ground, right?” he asked with an increasing sense of desperation.

“Well,” said the other Shen Qingqiu, “I would certainly miss the bamboo, but Binghe is growing me some in the demon realm, so it wouldn’t be that bad”.

Luo Binghe turned around in disgust, only stopping to pick the sect leader back up again. He should have known better — for a Shen Qingqiu to seem nice compared to the original, he had to be missing something important somewhere else, and for this one, it seemed to be the ability to care about anything and anyone that wasn’t his own Luo Binghe.

Stepping back through the portal, he began wondering what to do next — his harem had seemed a bit stagnant for the last few decades, so now the other half of the population was open to him, maybe he should try it out? The Liu Qingge of this world was certainly pretty, and he had to admit the sight of the sect leader all tied up had been oddly appealing…

(Bingge then proceeds to form a harem out of every single person who wanted to be part of SY!SQQs if only he wasn’t so Binghe-brained)

Kinda continuation of this fic about this idea.

So.

He might have been slightly wrong about his assessment.

In his defense, Proud Immortal Demon Way was a stallion novel with lots of (bad) hetero papapa. Who would have thought that just by transmigrating a gay person in the universe would make everything more fruity, changing the whole genre?! (Okay, two gay people. Turns out Airplane was gay too. Suddenly, everything made so much sense after that revelation.)

(It was embarrassing to think back of that revelation. Even if it led him to his first boyfriend.

Especially because it led him to his first boyfriend.

Oh boy. Even thinking about it makes him want to dig himself a cushy little hole to bury himself. His first boyfriend. Shen Qingqiu was still too thin faced for this. To even remember how shameless Shang Qinghua was.

“Bro. Brooo! I'm gay. Why do you think My King is like that?!

“What?!” Shen Qingqiu was shocked. Sure, it was always a bit suspicious that Luo Binghe’s right hand man was still alive even though he was gorgeous, but to be the writer's perfect man? That explained so much…

“Yeah! He is like, my dream man! Gorgeous, a cold beauty, so mean and cruel, yet caring and loyal to those who deserve… I'm so weak for this type of men. Men who could step on me and I would thank them for it…” Shang Qinghua was embarrassing with his dreamy little sighs. And- were those stars in his eyes?! Was he drooling?!

Shameless! Utterly shameless!

But that description…

“Is that why Luo Binghe was like that too? Do you want my sweet lotus to step on you?! You shameless pervert!”

A snort was his answer.

“L-O-L. Of course you would think of Luo Binghe. No. I mean, yes, of course, but I wasn't thinking of my son.” There was an uncharacteristically calculating look in Shang Qinghua’s eyes. It was oddly attractive, not that Shen Qingqiu noticed it. Nope. He definitely did not notice it.” Can't you think of someone else that could be described as such?”

“No, not really. Gorgeous and beautiful, yes, many, but… Cold? Hm. I mean…” he trailed off. Shen Qingqiu - the OG - was a cold beauty. But he was a despicable scum villain, with no loyalty to anyone. And “caring”?! Hah! No way!”

“The original good was gorgeous and mean and cruel… but definitely not caring and loyal! Is it really a male character?”

“Bro.” The condescence was dripping from that word. “O-M-G, bro. How can you be so smart, yet so dense at the same time?! I'm talking about YOU!”

“...”

He?

They just looked at each other, one behind his facepalm, the other blue screening.

“Wait. What?!”

And that was how the talks about their relationship started.)

He would have preferred if he had a working System that notified him of such changes, instead of finding it out like how he found out.

[Host did not ask 乁⁠༼⁠☯⁠‿⁠☯⁠✿⁠༽⁠ㄏ]

Hmph.

But it was great! Life was great! Everything was great!

“Piss off you halfbreed!”

Except for when it was not.

“What? Is Liu-shishu jealous of this discipline? This is my time with Shizun, so you piss off!”

Shen Qingqiu sighed, and hiding behind his fan, he resisted the urge to facepalm. Honestly, his boyfriends…

“If this master's shidi and discipline do not learn how to drink tea together peacefully, this master will visit the Sect Leader instead. This master is sure Zhangmen-shixiong would be pleased with the unscheduled visit.”

“SHIZUN!” cried his sticky discipline - the Emperor, really. Fucking protagonist halo - in outrage. “No, Shizun can't do this! This is this discipline’s time with Shizun!”

“Shen-shixiong!” Huffed Liu Qingge as well. His boyfriends were so dramatic, honestly…

He sighed again. A repeating act when he spent his time with these two.

He wouldn't want it anyway else, though. These two were his dramatic brutish idiots.

“Come here,” he opened his arm, and Luo Binghe immediately threw himself into the hug. Liu Qingge was slower, more resistant, as if the little tsundere didn't like these hugs, but at Shen Qingqiu’s raised eyebrow, he leaned into the hug with more dignity.

It's okay, shidi, this master will not tell anyone that you are a big softie who loves cuddling with your shixiong and shizi.

“Would Shizun leave us for the Sect Leader?” sobbed Luo Binghe into green robes.

This needy protagonist…

“Leave? No. But you know that there has been… talks… between this master and Zhangmen-shixiong. The Sect Leader is… well. The thing between this master and Yue Qingyuan is different. There are too many misunderstandings and a burdening past between us. It is a slow process. Don't be so jealous, okay? This master… This master cares for you. For both of you. All of you, really…”

And wasn't that a mindfuck. He transmigrated as a virginal disaster gay, whose main goal in his second life was to hug the protagonist's golden thighs to survive, and there he was now, having a literal harem of gorgeous, hypercompetent men. Like- how? How the fuck?!

System, explain this!

[Since the protagonist Luo Binghe is not open to have a harem, the task was assigned to-]

Okay, okay, okay! I know!

Fucking hell.

It was still so weird that the “harem owner” halo was transferred to him. Not to Shang Qinghua - though he also has another boyfriend so he had two people who would gladly step on him -, not to Liu Qingge - who had a frenemies-to-lovers-by-proxy kinda relationship with Luo Binghe -, not even to the Luo Binghe-like Xiao Gongyi - who literally sent an application form to Shen Qingqiu's current partners to apply as a new harem member, WTF?! -, but to him! Shen Yuan!

Wild.

“It would be better for your health, if you'd finally allow Mu Qingfang to court your, but at least it is not the mutt’s snake of a cousin…” Liu Qingge grunted, still salty about that time when he was late to “save” Shen Qingqiu and Zhuzhi-lang “saved” him instead. Shen Yuan still maintained his opinion that knew what he was doing and he was not a damsel in distress, needing a strong man to save him!

He cleared his throat. “Uh… about that…”

“SHIZUN!”

“SHEN QINGQIU!”

The two shouts of dismay were expectable, as was the silent communication between the two lovers-by-proxy. Now the two had a common enemy, which he should probably discourage if he wanted his new pet to stay alive, but… He would not. The two needed to bond, the UST between them was killing Shen Qingqiu, and his slippery little snake was great at surviving. He would be fine.

Shen Qingqiu's sanity, on the other hand, was not.

No matter… who needed sanity, when he had a harem full of violate, powerful, gorgeous men who - against all reason - loved him.

And he loved them in return.

Life was good!

[Host is welcome! Please, rate your experience with a five star review!]

Fuck off!

Remarried Empress

Summary:

"A divorce," Shen Jiu said in a matter-of-fact tone.

"It's only for a year," Yue Qingyuan said quickly. "Just to legitimise the child."

***

Shen Qingqiu made the decision to cut all ties. It is Yue Qingyuan's loss and Tianlang-Jun is here to pick up the pieces.

Pairing: Past YQY(SJ)/SQQ, Hint of Past TLJ/SXY, YQY/QQQ, SQQ(SJ)/TLJ

Notes:

Warning: Lots of Qi Qingqi and Yue Qingqyuan hate! If you like this 2 characters, please don't continue!

Prologue: Reckless

"A divorce," the words were delivered in a matter-of-fact tone.

"It's only for a year," Yue Qingyuan said quickly. "Just to legitimise the child."

"Then you can let me foster the child," Shen Qingqiu suggested, tone of voice and facial expression still expressionless as he stared at the document in front of him.

"You know I can't do that," Yue Qingyuan said, his tone cajoling. "A-Qi is a noble's daughter. The Qi family will not allow her child to be taken away from her."

Shen Qingqiu snorted, "So, what you're telling me is that even though I am the official spouse, I am no different than a lowly concubine."

"No, A-Jiu!" Yue Qingyuan immediately denied. "It's just for a year. After the child is born, I will remarry you to make you the first spouse again."

"The Qi family will not allow it," Shen Qingqiu returned his words. "They will not let you strip her of the official title."

"Then, I will take you as my second spouse!" Yue Qingyuan promised.

"You could have just made up an excuse to demote me in the first place," Shen Qingqiu said, still speaking in a business-like tone. "Why go through a divorce?"

"I thought of that, but I couldn't just accuse A-Jiu this way," Yue Qingyuan said.

It was such a poor excuse that Shen Jiu couldn't help the burst of mocking laughter that escaped his lips.

"So you went with what Qi Qingqi wanted instead?" Shen Qingqiu said. He was surprised that there were no tears coming despite the levity of their conversation. Perhaps he'd cried so much that there were no tears left. Perhaps his heart was broken into too many pieces too small to be broken again.

"You thought this was the better option?" Shen Qingqiu questioned. Really, he shouldn't be surprised by the amount of stupidity that Yue Qingyuan was capable of.

"It's only for a year," Yue Qingyuan repeated. "You can stay at the back courtyard and I'll make sure that everything you need is provided."

"You promised that too when we first married," Shen Qingqiu said, taking the document and folding it to slide into the envelop Yue Qingyuan had given him when he first arrived. "Yet there are some days I would starve because your kitchen was having 'shortage'. Imagine that, a first spouse, starving. I cannot imagine what will happen when I am just your abandoned, divorced husband."

"A-Jiu! That's not true! What are you saying!?" Yue Qingyuan asked, looking truly bewildered and accused. Shen Qingqiu just gave him a dispassionate look and got up.

"I understand. No matter what I say, nothing will change," Shen Qingqiu said, bowing to his 'husband' one last time. "Farewell, Lord Yue."

"Wait! A-Jiu, I will have the servants pack your things to send to the back courtyard," Yue Qingyuan said, standing up to follow him to the door. "Don't be angry, A-Jiu. I'll make sure you are taken care of."

Taken care of.. Shen Qingqiu repeated in his heart as he continued walking without a pause. Like you have always?

Through thick and thin he'd stayed with this man. This man who'd once loved him when they were nothing but starving street children. Who'd wanted to stay with him even when his estranged Lord father found him and wanted to take him back. Who'd swore to love him for all their lives when he'd proposed after they were reunited.

"Lord Yue, it will be improper if I stayed at the compound even after we divorced," Shen Qingiqu said, not turning back to the noble-born man he'd once loved. "I will find residence elsewhere."

"Where will you go!?" Yue Qingyuan asked, a hint of desperation in his voice.

"I will inform you when the time comes. For now, I will return to my courtyard to pack," Shen Qingqiu answered. "Good night, Lord Yue."

"Uhm, yes. Good night, A-Jiu," Yue Qingyuan replied, unsure.

Shen Qingqiu left his ex-husband behind, standing stock still in his study with the candlelight casting a lonely dark silhouette on the door.

He didn't stop walking nor did he start crying now that he was alone. Instead, he headed straight to the guest houses.

In front of the door to a guest room occupied by a foreign dignitary, the tall figure of the guard stood in attention.

"I want to see Tianlang-Jun for a while," Shen Qingqiu said, expecting to be rejected but the general just nodded, opening the door for him without any hesitation. It made Shen Qingqiu wonder what the demon lord had told his subordinates before, to allow Shen Qingqiu such easy access on his person.

"Tianlang-Jun," he greeted, bowing to the demon lord. "I apologise for coming here so late."

Tianlang-Jun got up quickly and guided him up by the elbows. "What is it? Is something wrong? Do you need help? You don't look so well."

"My lord," he said, grabbing one of the large hands on his arm with both of his. He looked up to the demon with glistening eyes, "What you said before, did you mean it?"

Tianlang-Jun stared into his eyes, looking sincere when he said, "Yes, every word."

Shen Qingqiu didn't believe him. Couldn't believe him. After all, Yue Qingyuan said those exact same words to him before they were married.

But Tianlang-Jun was his best bet to leave this godforsaken place.

"Then marry me," Shen Qingqiu said. "Take me away and wed me."

***

Yue Qingyuan and his pregnant wife, Qi Qingqi, were sending off the ambassador of peace sent by the demon world when Shen Qingqiu made his entrance.

Or rather, his exit.

"A-Jiu...?" Yue Qingyuan gaped at him, taking in the sight of him in his old wedding robes.

Through the red veil on his head, he could see Yue Qingyuan making an aborted movement towards him but was stopped by Qi Qingqi's arm on his.

"Qingqiu," Tianlang-Jun greeted, looking happy to see him. He strode forward to offer his arm. "Are you ready to leave?"

"Yes," Shen Qingqiu answered.

"Wait!? Leave!? What do you mean?" Yue Qingyuan questioned, sounding alarmed.

"Lord Tianlang-Jun proposed to me the night before," Shen Qingqiu explained succinctly. "I accepted."

"Since we were leaving and Qingqiu has no family to return to," Tianlang-Jun followed up with the explanation. "We decided to leave from here. Hope Lord Yue will not mind."

Both Yue Qingyuan and Qi Qingqi stared in shock as Shen Qingqiu and Tianlang-Jun headed to the carriage. The demon lord helped his new bride into the carriage before bidding his host farewell one last time.

"Lord Yue, I appreciate your hospitality very much," Tianlang-Jun said with an amiable smile. "I will ensure that the treaty goes through without a hitch."

Without waiting for an answer, the demon lord climbed the carriage and gestured for his nephew to start their journey home. Just as they thought, neither Yue Qingyuan nor his shrew of a wife actually uttered a single protest when the contingent began their procession, the demon soldiers surrounding the carriage to take away their lord and his future spouse.

Tianlang-Jun put down the curtains once the sight of the mansion disappeared, then pulled out his handkerchief. Wordlessly, he handed it to his new bride.

"I do not need it," came the words from under the veil.

He gently pried open the fist crinkling the red silk robes and put the handkerchief in it. The wedding robes were of moderate quality, fitting for some lord's consort maybe. Though it flattered Shen Qingqiu's figure, Tianlang-Jun made a mental note to have someone make new wedding robes for his future spouse.

One befitting an Empress.

"You can cry," Tianlang-Jun said to Shen Qingqiu, not looking his way to allow his new bride privacy. "You can even lean on my shoulder, should you choose to. Even if you don't want it, it will always be here for you."

Under his old wedding veil, Shen Qingqiu choked on his sob as the tears continued to flow, the droplets darkening the silk robes covering his lap.

He thought that he was over this. That he'd cried all he could when Yue Qingyuan first told him that he was marrying Qi Qingqi. Then, on the day the man he loved married another woman. Again and again when Yue Qingyuan repeatedly accused him of being jealous, being vile and scheming against his wife.

He thought that his tears had all dried up.

That the hurt had stopped.

But it felt as if his heart was breaking one last time.

Leaving the house that had been his home for more than a decade.

He still couldn't believe that his life would change so much in just half a year.

End of Prologue: Reckless

"Each day goes by and each night, I cry Somebody saw you with her last night You gave me your word, "Don't worry 'bout her" You might love her now, but you loved me first Said you'd never hurt me, but here we are Oh, you swore on every star How could you be so reckless with my heart?"

~ Reckless by Madison Beer

Notes:

So the next chapter would be the flashback for what happened 6 months ago. Then after that, a glimpse of SQQ's life in the demon palace. Should take four chapters, because the last chapter is when YQY discovers that his A-Jiu got a glow up.

I recently became invested in a novel called the Remarried Empress and I couldn't stop thinking about how it mirrors the original plot in the novel in the I Wish You Were My Husband by Feynite. So you could say that this is the result of both obsessions marrying and procreating.

But instead of Luo Binghe/ Shen Qingqiu, my terrible brain decided that Tianlang-Jun should be the MC. Just for the heck of it, ya know. Also, because I had so much fun writing about Tianlang-Jun/Shen Qingqiu in my previous fic Mirage of A Dream. Hahaha.

So, tadaa my love child!
