[Two male leads + happy ending + mutual devotion + both inexperienced + equally powerful + both unhinged + low moral standards + pure love]
(A quick heads-up: there’s a little angst early on, but things get better later.)
For a long time, rumors had circulated in Shencheng: after the Xie family went bankrupt, the eldest young master became a canary kept in Mr. Shen’s house. Some even said Mr. Shen had set his sights on him long ago and resorted to any means necessary to keep him by his side.
Xie Ranxing sat frowning in a dim room, looking over information he had gathered online. At last, he pieced together the “truth”: he was Shen Jinnian’s kept lover, and Shen Jinnian already had a partner.
But as he gradually regained his memories, he realized just how misleading the rumors had been. They were completely wrong.
Xie Ranxing: Sweet on the outside, dark on the inside; good at disguising himself and deceiving others; a compulsive liar, emotionally detached, yet with a softer side.
Shen Jinnian: A devoted lover who goes after whatever catches his eye and never holds back, but Xie Ranxing is a god to him.
And so
Early on: “You bought me, so you can’t abandon me.”
Later: “Xie Ranxing, I hope you’ll be happy.”
