The Man My Boss Sent Me (Matriarchal Society)

Ever since Fu Qingyue was picked as a husband by Minister Zhou right after the imperial examinations, her in-laws’ support had secured her a respectable but easy post.

After several years of marriage, she and her wife were in perfect harmony and had a daughter. In the capital, everyone hailed them as a match made in heaven.

She thought she would spend the rest of her life content with this quiet existence.

But one day, during a convivial drinking party with colleagues on a day off, Liang Chuan appeared.

At Lord Zhang’s direct instruction, he was stationed at Fu Qingyue’s side, lowering his eyes as he poured her wine.

Drawn curtains, a dim room, two half-drunk people, and a younger, fever-hot body within reach...

Compared with the wife who had been by her side for years, this felt entirely different.

She thought it was nothing more than one reckless night no one would know about, a brief indulgence off the path.

Once she walked out that door, she could go right back to being a good mother and a good husband whom everyone praised.

But she had underestimated the dangerous thrill of something new.

It was intoxicating, impossible to resist.

I’m sorry, my love.

In the end, I betrayed our love.

It wasn’t until Liang Chuan brazenly showed up at her home one day that Fu Qingyue finally realized something was wrong.

Liang Chuan: “Ignoring me again? Have you made up with your wife? Say something! You’re useless!”

[Reader’s guide]

The female lead is not a virgin; the male lead is.

The heroine is an honest person who’s awkward with words.
