Matriarchy: I Asked for Warm Water, and the Ice-Cold CEO Forced Me to Marry Him

Lin Yu transmigrates into a matriarchal world, where he has no status and his family is forcing him to marry a sixty-year-old woman and become her live-in husband. On the day of the blind date, he accidentally opens the wrong private-room door.

Inside, Chu Lengyue, Yanjing’s richest woman, is in the throes of a manic episode, radiating such a bone-chilling aura that no one dares approach. Lin Yu doesn’t seem bothered. He casually hands her a cup of warm water and says in a lazy, relaxed voice, “You’re so worked up. Take a break. There’s no need to push yourself so hard.”

Who could have guessed that this casual act of kindness would instantly cure the mania she’d suffered from for years? The lofty, icy female CEO’s eyes turn red on the spot, and her possessive obsession goes through the roof.

“Come with me and get our marriage license.”

“??? I just want to lie flat and live off my wife. I don’t want a job.”

“I’ll support you. Everything I own will be yours.”

From then on, Lin Yu is doted on by a trillion-yuan CEO, and even when he lies flat all day, she treats him like royalty. What he doesn’t know is that the moment his unique laid-back nature and ability to soothe people’s emotions become public, the whole city will be set ablaze.

A cool, aloof actress, a scheming female CEO, a deranged woman with a doctorate… They all show up with outrageously expensive dowries, eyes red as they fight over him.

Lin Yu sighs helplessly. “I really just want to lie flat in peace. Stop pushing yourselves so hard!”
