I want recs where ml thinks mc is dead and becomes depressed for a while but mc is actually just in hiding or some other reason like he switched bodies or something, the reason why he thinks mc is dead doesnt really matter. Will NOT take world hopping recs. Those almost always only barely fit the criteria. Normal transmigration is fine though. In this case for example, How to Survive As A Villain, which has the trope I'm asking for.
So far this is the only one I could recommend. Not sure if you'll like having an m-preg to it. https://www.novelupdates.com/series/blooming-romance/
I only remember some of the ones I know I have read: *Transmigrating into a Mob Character to Rehabilitate the Villain Plan *Ugly Empress— has gender swap for part of it, but don’t worry it’s still BL *Han Shan’s Sword Unsheathed— an interesting twist on this, the ML is the dead one *The #1 Pretty Boy of the Immortal Path *The Sword Named No Way Out? I haven’t read it very far yet *it’s a spoiler for the final plot twist but Spoiler: Novel title Fox Demon’s Cultivation Manual I almost included how to survive as a villain in this list haha! MDZS and heaven officials blessing both count for this, tho most people have already read those.

Rich stunt ex-husband. Description: For three years, Yun Xiao had used different methods to instill in Tang Ling how important Lu Mintang’s existence was, and that he was just a stand-in. “We are just married, we will divorce when Min Tang comes back.” He doesn’t even deserve to mention Lu Mintang’s name. He did his duty and did his best in marriage, he was well-behaved and sensible, and he said nothing. He thought it could change Yun Xiao’s mind, but what he was waiting for was a divorce agreement. After ending this long unrequited love, Tang Ling disappeared from Yun Xiao’s world. Half a year later, Yun Xiao searched for Tang Ling all over the world. Tang Ling’s countless extravagant hopes were hidden in a dusty and yellowed diary at home. “If possible, I would also like you to kiss me once.” “Lu Mintang, it’s a name that laughs at the mention of it.” “I learned to say to myself a happy anniversary.” After three years, Tang Ling brought Xinhuan to the pinnacle of his career, but there was a dog beside him. Yun Xiao: Barking! Wife, look at me! The mc got into an accident and lost his memory. Everyone thinks his dead including the ml.
I love destroying world’s plot arc 4. unfortunately, this is QT, but for this arc there’s 35 chapter so the plot is well finished but just give it a try.
