On my first day at Shan Hai Group, the cold-faced CEO Lin Hai looked at me strangely.
In the elevator, he quietly asked, “Have you settled into your workspace?” After I worked late into the night, he said, “I’ll take you home.” I thought it was just special consideration for a new hire, until one night he knelt on one knee before me.
“Young Master, Lin Hai has waited twenty years for you.”
The slave mark on his wrist glowed faintly. It was a loyalty branded into the bones of the Lin family for generations.
I was an ordinary college senior doing an internship, and suddenly I became the heir of a secluded family.
He was the cold-faced CEO of Shan Hai Group, but behind closed doors he knelt and called me “Master.”
He had taken a knife for me, kept watch through the night for me, and risked his life for me.
But I didn’t know whether this twenty-year wait would lead to a bond between master and servant, or…
Behind closed doors, you can call me whatever you like.
But tonight, could you just call me by my name?
[Master-servant role reversal × mutual devotion × secluded family] He waited twenty years for me. I should spend the rest of my life making it up to him.
