Xu Xun is an ordinary employee at an ordinary company. One day, the overworked office drone accidentally buys a succubus on sale online.
He assumes you get what you pay for, but two days later, Xu Xun receives a strikingly handsome man with an extraordinary air about him.
Later, a group of men in black burst into his home, shouting things like “Young Master!” Only then does Xu Xun realize that the succubus he bought online might be someone important.
It turns out he didn't receive the succubus he ordered at all!
Xu Xun: If you're not a succubus, why are you working so hard?
*
It takes Xu Xun all of three seconds to process the fact that he accidentally worked the eldest young master of the He family in A City to the bone. Then he goes right back to his life as an overworked office drone.
He also gives the shopping platform a one-star review.
To apologize, the platform sends Xu Xun a replacement, the latest-model succubus, and guarantees its excellent quality.
Night falls. Still smelling of the office, Xu Xun leads the new succubus into the house.
Just as they are about to get to know each other, the door is suddenly kicked open. A figure carrying the icy chill of a snowstorm appears in the doorway.
Xu Xun turns around and sees He Wenzhou staring quietly at him.
The eldest young master of the He family, who usually only appears in financial news, has come looking for him, bringing along the little toy Xu Xun bought on a whim.
“Was I not good enough?”
He Wenzhou kneels before Xu Xun, a flicker of hurt crossing his otherwise expressionless face.
Then a cat-ear headband appears in Xu Xun's hands.

From then on, Xu Xun heads to work every morning and comes home in the evening only to keep working, still reeking of the office...
Rumor has it that He Wenzhou, despite his famously packed schedule, searches the whole house for the toys Xu Xun has hidden as soon as the time comes. He's so energetic that Xu Xun wonders if he might have dormant succubus blood.
The overworked office drone Xu Xun decides to have a serious talk with He Wenzhou.
Xu Xun: Do you know you're not a succubus?
The man hard at work looks up and thinks seriously for a moment. “You still prefer succubi, don't you?”
Xu Xun's veins nearly pop as he snatches the fabric from the man's hands, embarrassed and annoyed.
“What I mean is, you can skip one meal and you won't die!”
