CompletedJing Yi, a penniless soul barely scraping by, suddenly finds himself transported into a world of melodramatic angst novels, where he becomes the head butler of a wealthy family—complete with free food and lodging. Finally, he thinks, a stable life!
But his hopes are dashed when he realizes the family he serves is full of overly romantic fools: brainless heirs ready to ruin their fortune and their lives for love, leaving him jobless in their wake.
On his first day, Jing Yi observes the fourth young master planning to elope with a man, tearing the family apart. While watering the flowers, he inwardly muses:
“Go ahead, leave. If you dare step out the door, your so-called true love will break your legs, and you'll spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair.”
The quarreling brothers fall silent.
Shocked, the fourth young master storms outside and kicks his lover into a ditch.
