[A little treat for all our readers]
At 22, Xu Youfu is one of the most “precious” male resources in the Huaguo of Blue Star.
In this parallel world, where women vastly outnumber men, he has lived in the spotlight since birth:
Government subsidies of two million, free education, guaranteed employment, and freedom to marry... No, make that “multiple freedoms” in marriage.
Thanks to his status as a “top-tier resource,” he easily landed a job at the Jingyun City Government Office, becoming the youngest of its three men. And Xu Youfu, at just 22, is the center of attention in the entire building.
Going to work every day feels like walking the red carpet, and his desk is piled high with lovingly made lunches from his female coworkers.
Field research in the countryside turns into fan meet-and-greets, and he has to go out fully disguised in a mask and sunglasses.
His five older sisters try their hardest to set him up with their best friends, while his superiors find all sorts of excuses to invite him to “family dinners.”
Even when he goes to the cafeteria, the auntie serving food gives him an extra chicken leg.
“Officer Xu, we need your signature on this planning proposal.”
“Officer Xu, you have to come to the department get-together tonight!”
“Youfu, my daughter is the same age as you. Would you like to meet her?”
But in a world where men are so scarce, being ordinary... is a luxury in itself.
