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...
Wenjay hadn't considered buying property before, but with the mention of it and considering Mingyoo's promise of a substantial annual salary, the idea of owning a two-bedroom apartment seemed feasible. "Thanks for the offer. If I decide to buy, I'll definitely reach out to you."
As they chatted, they arrived at their destination. Wenjay parked the car and asked, "Should I wait for you? I can drive you back afterward."
Lily's mom hesitated, "Would that be too much trouble? It's quite a distance."
"It's no trouble at all," Wenjay joked, "After all, I'm counting on you to get me a discount, right?"
Lily's mom laughed, "Alright then, just give me ten minutes. My friend is busy with wedding preparations, so I won't stay long."
True to her word, Lily's mom returned in exactly ten minutes. "Sorry to keep you waiting," she said as she climbed back into the car.
