When Yi Mingxu was a teacher, he took pity on a poor little thing and let him stay with him. The boy was sweet and well-behaved, never making a fuss, and quieter than any girl. Years later, the boy returned after completing his studies, smiling sweetly as he begged Teacher Yi to take him in again. Yi Mingxu's heart softened once more, and he let him move into his home.
Yi Mingxu had a girlfriend and had also adopted the orphaned child of a friend. Fortunately, the money he earned from starting a business after quitting his job was enough to support the whole family.
After running himself ragged and finally earning some money and gaining the confidence to buy a ring and propose, Yi Mingxu was dumped by his girlfriend. Her reasons? He was frigid, and if he loved work so much, he could marry his job. She also complained that he had made her a stepmother to two children before they were even married.
Yi Mingxu: "..."
Yi Mingxu thought she had a point. After reflecting on it, he didn't try to stop her from leaving.
The adopted child was still young, but the pitiful boy Yi Mingxu had taken in stepped up as the lady of the house. He did the laundry, cooked, looked after the child, and kept everything in perfect order. He was also tender and thoughtful toward Yi Mingxu, and his long hair was so beautiful it was hard to tell whether he was male or female.
One time, Yi Mingxu woke up after getting drunk and stared in a daze at the person in his arms. The poor little thing's lashes trembled, his eyes were red, and suspicious marks showed above his collarbone. Yet he comforted Yi Mingxu instead. "It's okay. You just mistook me for Lingling. I don't mind."
Yi Mingxu: I mind...
Only after they got together did Yi Mingxu learn that their reunion hadn't been a coincidence. Even his breakup with his girlfriend had been part of someone's scheme.
