After graduating, Yan Xizhou worked in Shencheng for five years. Working life was tough, and after a colleague stole one of her orders, she quit and returned to her hometown.
She runs a small guesthouse in her hometown. On top of earning a living and supporting her family, she has to deal with neighborhood disputes and the bizarre antics of relatives and friends. Somehow, that’s still better than the backstabbing at the company.
Life is hard, and all you can do is work hard and keep going. This is a down-to-earth story, with no golden finger and no wall-to-wall face-slapping. It’s simply about living to make a living.
Readers who like feel-good power fantasies, proceed with caution.
The female protagonist is very strong and sober, and the male protagonist is a straight man who sticks to the one he likes and embraces the beautiful woman. The author's description of rural life in the countryside is quite apt and worth reading. The way the two male protagonists get along with each other is also hilarious.
