Max-Level Expert Returns to the Village and Brings Home a Rugged Man to Spoil

[Period setting | mutual healing | heartwarming everyday life | younger seme, two male leads]

Zhong Yue is the undisputed head of the Zhong family, a towering pillar of strength.

Stubborn, hot-tempered, a bachelor with a child to raise and a whole swarm of awful relatives buzzing around him every day.

He makes all the decisions at home, and the child he’s raising is adorable. With his little patch of land in the village to look after, Zhong Yue is doing pretty well for himself.

Then one day, a sharply dressed man showed up at his door and blurted out, “Brother, don’t you remember me?”

Zhong Yue stared at him for a long moment before finally digging up a memory of the man from the distant past.

The man had lived with his family as a child. He’d been treated about as well as a dog when it came to food, drink, and everything else, and Zhong Yue’s father had even named him “Gouzi,” or “Dog.”

Just thinking about it made Zhong Yue angry on the man’s behalf.

Had he come to get revenge?

Zhong Yue took an inconspicuous step backward.

Ren Feng had run away from that “home,” where nobody had ever treated him like a person. Now he was a successful businessman, and he’d gotten cocky.

On a whim, he decided to return to the village and see how his old “enemy” was doing.

Seeing the man in front of him clutching a child and eyeing him warily, Ren Feng smiled with delight.

He decided to sit back and enjoy the show.

He’d spend a few days at the Zhong home, enjoy himself to the fullest, then go back and laugh about it with his buddies.

Until one day, Zhong Yue set down a neatly packed bag in front of him and looked at him with a guilty expression.

Ren Feng quietly changed his mind.

Taking the Zhong family’s linchpin away would probably hurt them even more.
