The penny-pinching miser Song Manyue picks up a boyfriend for next to nothing.
The guy can't lift a finger, comes from a miserable family, and isn't too bright. But who can resist a face that's easy on the eyes?
And so the young master starts making a living off his looks, naturally becoming Song Manyue's precious little darling.
"This T-shirt isn't for sale. I'm saving it for my boyfriend."
"This milk tea isn't for takeout. I made it for my boyfriend."
"I really can't help you with this paper. I haven't even finished my boyfriend's yet."
Later, the pretty boy Fu Zichu keeps striking out in his job search. Song Manyue curls up on the sofa, pinches his chin, leans over him, and comforts him.
"It's okay if you can't find a job. Worst comes to worst, we'll go back to the village and raise pigs. We can still make a fortune that way."
Later still, the young master's secret identity is exposed, and when the truth comes out, things spiral completely out of control. Fu Zichu is pinned down on a cheap, shabby sofa by a woman, too afraid to utter a word, nearly getting his mouth torn off.

#If the world isn't kind to you, why not let me be your world#
In this ridiculous farce, I only want to stay lost in it with you.
