Synopsis
Julian Sterling was the young master of the Sterling family, trained since childhood to become the most perfect heir to the Sterling Group. With his dashing appearance and a height of over 1.8 meters, Julian Sterling was almost regarded as the image of an ideal husband: wealthy, handsome, and talented. But who could have known that he was a person harboring a secret wish to become one of those small, cute boys who get carried and pampered like the bottoms in Boys' Love novels. That is right, it was Boys' Love - because our President Sterling only loved men. Perhaps it was because life in the Sterling family was too exhausting, with too much pressure, that he always yearned for someone to come and take him away. Maybe it was because the heavens had eyes, or his deceased mother pitied him too much, but finally, during a business trip, Julian Sterling lost his life in a car accident at the age of twenty-seven. Fortunately, his soul transmigrated into a Boys' Love novel - becoming the real young master with the same name and surname who had just been found and brought back to the Sterling family - a person about to be married off to the head of another tycoon family. Julian Sterling could not help but lament that everything was truly miserable, but luckily... he had turned into a small and cute boy now!

Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: The Transmigration and The Arranged Marriage

Julian Sterling was the only son of the Sterling Group's chairman, an elite among elites. His methods in the business world were incredibly powerful; at only twenty-seven, he had made the old men in the corporation obediently shut their mouths when he took power.

Rumors outside said that Julian was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, living a wealthy life since childhood and growing up to inherit a fortune. It must be said that he was both talented and rich, a man pursued passionately by many women.

But who knew that Julian did not enjoy that life everyone coveted at all. He always had to live under the harsh control of his biological father, tormented by the pain of losing his mother when he was small. Perhaps because of that, Julian developed a strange psychology - he wanted to become someone's little lover. Because from childhood until now, the only thing that comforted Julian was perhaps those tragic, tear-jerking boys' love novels full of "I love you, you love me." It might look a bit funny, but it was what gave Julian hope that in the future someone would love and protect him.

A genuine CEO, badass and cool, yet harboring the heart of a teenage girl.

Julian lived like that for twenty-seven years, then during a business trip on a stormy day, his car was involved in a chain-reaction crash. By the time the ambulance arrived, Julian was no longer breathing. When facing death, he was not afraid but felt satisfied.

Perhaps… it was a release, right?

The shrill sound of birds chirping filled the sky, and the strong smell of bleach in the hospital entered his body with every breath; Julian painfully tried to open his eyes. His vision was blurry, above him was a sheet of white, there seemed to be the sound of someone cursing, then someone saying something…

It was so noisy.

Julian blinked a few times, then slowly closed his eyes again.

When Julian opened his eyes once more, only a family butler remained beside him. Julian found a way to trick the butler into going out, then lay dazed on the hospital bed alone.

He knew he had not survived that accident; the sensation of pain was still very clear, as well as the satisfaction of being released.

He had left Earth, and now he had turned into Julian Sterling - a human in some cheesy romance novel. Of course, he did not have the good fortune to become the protagonist; he was a useless supporting character - the real young master who had been swapped at birth with the submissive protagonist.

Tsk, how melodramatic.

He vaguely remembered that the real young master, due to living in poverty for fifteen years, was very insecure when taken back, making everyone dislike him. During the three years raised in his own home, the relationship between him and his biological parents and biological brother was terrible. Conversely, those three pampered Aaron Sterling immensely - the fake young master - a talented person with excellent management skills. Meanwhile, Julian seemed to have lost the Sterling family's talent for business. Finally, the three of them could not stand it anymore; taking advantage of when he turned eighteen, they officially announced they would marry him off to the young master of the Caldwell family - Ethan Caldwell.

That's right, the legendary commercial marriage.

It was a pity that in the plot, during the years he was taken back to the Sterling family, Julian had suffered from depression. The day he received the news that he would be married to a man, Julian chose to commit suicide.

Obviously, at this moment, the fact that Julian had just transmigrated and had to lie in the hospital was also because of the original owner's end.

The original owner's life was like a joke; his adoptive parents did not love him, and his biological parents did not love him either. He lived a tired life, trying to find a ray of light, but no one bestowed it upon him.

Truly pitiful.

Then Julian sighed; he was also very pitiful. Just now, this body's biological brother had called to scold him in a storm. In the end, the wedding banquet that was supposed to be held in half a year was now moved to half a month later.

He did not even know who his future husband was.

Hmm, same-sex marriage was possible in this world. Fortunately, it was not an ABO story, otherwise, he would have died of shock.

It was just… What should he do?

Rise up? Seize power? How could the cool Boss Julian of the past admit defeat to such naive management matters?

But…

Julian raised his hand, looking at his fair and smooth fingers, suddenly becoming a bit silent.

Or should he obediently let someone marry him and take him home?

In his previous life, he fought and competed with those old men for several years. So what if he climbed to a high position? When he returned home, there was only cold air, his father's grumpiness, and the voices of the women clinging to his father…

Julian sighed.

He did not want to live that purposeless life again. His gaze stared blankly at the ceiling, suddenly whispering a sentence.

"Mom, you wanted to help me, didn't you?"

"Can that person give me a home?"
