Pillow Wind 1

Lin Xingwen applied for a job at the teahouse and caught the eye of a wealthy matron, who took him as a live-in son-in-law. To his surprise, the matron was involved with another man; originally, he planned to endure it for the sake of money, but he didn't expect that the matron was genuinely trying to help him. To defend his home and protect his manly dignity, Lin Xingwen had to develop his own power, grow reluctantly, and protect the wealthy matron.

I was puzzled, "It's just a simple quality issue with the products," I said. "That shouldn't be enough to throw a big company like Zheng Corporation into such a state of disarray."


Min'er frowned, "Yes, but the thing is, there are higher-ups involved now, and it's getting quite ugly."


I asked subconsciously, "Could it be Qian Lixin's doing?"


Min'er looked at me, "We can't rule out that possibility. But if it were just Qian Lixin, it wouldn't be this troublesome. There are probably others behind this. Zheng Corporation has been a big target for many years, especially since the Zheng family only has one girl, Zheng Yufei."


I was momentarily perplexed, "What about the girl?"


Min'er gave a bitter smile, "Are you really that naive or just pretending? Girls in this circle are expected to enter into arranged marriages to elevate their families' status. In plain terms, they're just tools. Many are coveting Zheng Yufei's marriage prospects, yet you, this fool, beat them to the punch."
