After staying up late to finish an Interstellar ABO rebirth “sweet pet” novel featuring a cannon fodder character with the same name, Xi Xiuran opened his eyes to find he had transmigrated into the said book. He arrived exactly at the scene where the original owner was about to die tragically by slamming his head against a wall, refusing a marriage swap that would pair him with a madman.
Xi Xiuran: Don’t panic. I remember the plot. That half-mad Admiral, Shi Xingzhou, won’t live past a month.
Under pressure from the protagonist group, Xi Xiuran “reluctantly” signed the marriage contract while actually rejoicing in his heart: No more 996, no more 007! A young, charming, wealthy Omega widow sitting on a multi-billion inheritance—that’s gonna be me!
Holding the script in his hands, Xi Xiuran was determined to follow the path the original protagonist took in his previous life. If he could just hold on for one month and wait for the mentally traumatized Shi Xingzhou to kick the bucket, he would be the ultimate “salted fish”—living a life of divine leisure, and if he ever felt like getting up, he could even pilot a mecha into the sky!
However…
Day 1 of marriage: Shi Xingzhou, who was supposed to be in a coma, woke up and wanted to see him.
Day 2 of marriage: Shi Xingzhou, who was supposed to be losing his mind, lucidly took him to a royal palace banquet.
* …
First Month of marriage: Shi Xingzhou, who was supposed to die of mental exhaustion, looked weak but was very much alive.
Xi Xiuran, who was already prepared to host the funeral: ???
Later on, the plot galloped off the rails. Shi Xingzhou became the Emperor of the Empire, and Xi Xiuran discovered his belly was getting bigger.
Xi Xiuran: ???
Xi Xiuran: F***k, I forgot this is an Interstellar ABO novel. Since Shi Xingzhou didn’t lose control and destroy my glands, I can still get pregnant!

Shi Xingzhou woke up from yet another coma only to be told he had gained a partner—an Omega who had been swapped into the marriage. He closed his eyes and feigned unconsciousness, plotting how to scare the person away, when he heard the Omega let out an “Aha!” while listening to the social news.
The news headline read: “Nurse diligently cared for a solitary elderly man for years, only to inherit his entire estate after his death. The man’s children suspect the nurse of tampering with the will and have filed a lawsuit in the Imperial Court…”
Xi Xiuran: “Oh, right! I have to provide diligent care and end-of-life comfort. Can’t take the inheritance for nothing.”
Shi Xingzhou: “…”

[Reader’s Guide]
1. Gaming otaku “salted fish” Shou X Actually dying behind-the-scenes boss black-bellied Gong.
2. Shou’s soul is 22 (body is 18), Gong is 27. A 5-year age gap. 1V1, first love.
3. Even though the Shou is a “salted fish,” he is not a pushover. He loves games, yearns for mechas, and holds grudges—he’s a “bad kitty” who will bite if given the chance.
4. A “Su-shuang” (OP/Satisfying) sweet story. There will be a “cub”, but only at the very end. The original protagonist Gong and Shou are not good people; if you don’t like this trope, feel free to skip. The author is a “tu-gou” (simple-taste lover) and enjoys this genre.
