Wenjay, a Chinese-American of mixed heritage, finds himself jobless and heartbroken. In a bid to stay in China, he enters a sham marriage with Mingyoo. Wenjay, previously a kindergarten teacher and now a writer of heartwarming yuri novels, has a knack for cooking, but he particularly loves the noodles Mingyoo makes. Mingyoo, however, is part of an organization investigating 'super brains'. When Wenjay stumbles upon a dark secret about Mingyoo's sister...
The answer was simple: her boyfriend was a married man.
"The Deputy Chief Engineer of the group, the top superior of the Petrochemical Research Institute," Hank said. "Yarae has been maintaining a secret relationship with him for over two years, but it seems that neither of them intends to make it public. The phone he uses to contact her is registered under someone else's name. It took me a long time to find out, which shows how careful he is about this affair. He probably doesn't want to disrupt his existing family."
"So, it's a mutually beneficial relationship?" Mingyoo asked.
"Pretty much," Hank said. "Yarae has gained quite a few benefits from him, but it's not too outrageous. After all, she herself is very competent in her field. It's more like having someone in the government makes things easier."
