The Live-In Son-in-Law's Comeback Through Treasure Appraisal

A feel-good urban fantasy for male readers, blending supernatural powers, treasure appraisal and mystery-solving, and the art of play the pig to eat the tiger.

For three years, Lin Chen has endured contempt in the Su household. His mother-in-law berates him, his relatives mock him, and everyone treats him as a useless live-in son-in-law they can push around. Then, at a birthday banquet, an accident leaves him smashing a porcelain vase. With his blood as the catalyst, he awakens an ancient legacy and gains the Divine Eyes of Treasure Appraisal and boundless knowledge!

Could the shattered vase actually be an invaluable treasure? Could an ashtray picked up at a street stall really be imperial Tianhuang stone? From then on, Lin Chen thrives at spotting bargains, appraising treasures, and gambling on jade. Medicine and martial arts come just as easily to him. He remains the seemingly harmless househusband, yet quietly stirs up the whole world, bringing the entire antiques trade beneath his feet.

His mother-in-law, Zhang Cuilan, goes from bitter insults to proudly defending her son-in-law: “My son-in-law is a master appraiser!” His wife, Su Wanqing, shifts from cold indifference to open adoration: “Honey, how many more secrets are you hiding?” Everyone who once looked down on him will tremble before his brilliance.

See how Lin Chen, a live-in son-in-law, takes charge of the world, appraises its rarest treasures, protects the women by his side, and creates an urban legend!
