“Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy – The patient unconsciously fabricates illnesses in others to satisfy their desire to care for the sick.”

Everyone believed Shen Yu was a victim of Qi Fang’s power struggle. Only a few knew this marriage was orchestrated by the Second Young Master Qi after years of unrequited love – and two years into their marriage, he hadn’t even stepped foot in Shen Yu’s bedroom.

Teased by his friends, the Second Young Master Qi felt no shame. Instead, he began to brag:

“Simping? Nonexistent. Shen Yu’s been clinging to me these past two days. He not only helps me dress but also prepares loving lunches.”

Qi Fang opened the lunchbox in front of everyone and solemnly held up the loving note Shen Yu had written for him. He glimpsed the elegant handwriting:

[Qi Fang, 27 years old, middle-aged dementia, persistent episodes. If you notice any abnormalities in the patient, please call xxxxxx immediately. Thank you very much.]

Shen Yu had recently contracted a strange illness, always believing Qi Fang was sick.

Flu, fractures, heart disease, middle-aged dementia… Hearing these nonexistent ailments, Qi Fang angrily slammed the table, collapsed on the spot, and immediately had an “episode.” He wouldn’t get up unless Shen Yu kissed him.

By playing the role of a qualified patient, Qi Fang enjoyed various peculiar “attentive” care. His life was prosperous. It was just a matter of time before he could step into Shen Yu’s bedroom door.

Until one day, Qi Fang discovered Shen Yu calmly logging into a mysterious website, earnestly asking on a medical website:

[Married for two years without having sex, I suspect my partner has an incurable male problem. What should I do?]

◆ The disease names aren’t fictitious, but most symptoms and treatments in the text are fabricated. Please don’t apply them to real life. This is a silly story with flawed logic, meant for light reading. *bows*
