The Honest Man Mistaken for a Caged Canary

Lin Yuxi is an honest office drone who believes everything people tell him. He's incredibly easy to fool and almost never gets into an argument with anyone.

He always wears ugly glasses and loose clothes. No one knows what he really looks like, or that he has a slim waist and a curvy figure.

Lin Yuxi thought he'd live an ordinary life like this forever.

Then the orphan his older sister had left in his care suddenly fell seriously ill and needed a fortune for treatment. He was at his wits' end.

When a friend found out, they recommended a side job as a "sexy housekeeper." He would clean employers' homes, with high hourly pay and flexible hours, except... he had to dress provocatively.

Bodycon skirts, white-stocking uniforms, bunny outfits...

To save up for the child's treatment, Lin Yuxi went to work blushing in outfits made of barely a few scraps of fabric.

His employer was named Fu Tingxi, a powerful figure well known in the capital. He had built a fortune from nothing. Rumor had it that he had worked in shady businesses in his younger days. He was cold and tough, with an air of wealth, maturity, and elegant refinement in every movement.

At first, Lin Yuxi wasn't afraid of him. His employer rarely came home, so all Lin Yuxi had to do was wear the clothes he was told to wear and diligently clean the mansion.

Until...

He realized that Fu Tingxi liked watching him from behind, especially when he was kneeling to scrub the floor.

Lin Yuxi was nervous and afraid.

But the pay was so high he couldn't bear to quit, so he could only endure it in silence.

One time, Fu Tingxi came home drunk and said strange things to him, asking if he wanted them to have a different kind of relationship.

Lin Yuxi knew Fu Tingxi wanted to keep him. He didn't want to sell his body, but the child's condition had worsened. For the child's sake, he resigned himself to it.

He sold his body to Fu Tingxi.

Lin Yuxi's body was very sensitive. As soon as someone's lustful gaze lingered on him, he couldn't help blushing and trembling.

And Fu Tingxi didn't just look at him. He also made him wear all kinds of embarrassing outfits, liked to watch him try to hold back, and coaxed him into calling him "Brother Fu."

Lin Yuxi's body couldn't take it.

Later, after the child recovered, Lin Yuxi finally worked up the courage to tell Fu Tingxi that he wanted to end their unhealthy, twisted relationship.

Unexpectedly, the usually calm and mature man looked hurt. "Isn't it a good thing that our nephew's better? Why are you breaking up with me?"

Lin Yuxi stared at him in utter confusion...

Weren't they in a sugar daddy arrangement?
