The Desperate Housewife synopsis: “Bravely facing the fact that you’ve become a mistress is the first step toward growth.”

With that mindset, Jiang Cenglan knocked on the door of his boyfriend’s wife, ready to rescue the poor rich woman who was married to a cheater. But to his surprise, the scumbag’s wife turned out to be none other than Li Que, the male supermodel he had secretly admired for a long time!

Li Que might have been beautiful and delicate, but he was stronger than Jiang Cenglan ever imagined. After learning the full story of his husband’s infidelity, he turned the tables and, with the grace of someone older and wiser, began helping Jiang Cenglan, the unfortunate “mistress”, pick up the pieces of his ruined life.

And that also included… Giving him s*x education.

Just like that, Jiang Cenglan’s first life lesson was personally taught… By his boyfriend’s legally wedded wife.

Jiang Cenglan × Li Que

Mistress × Wife

Bottom × Bottom pretending to be tops to trick each other

P.S.: They’re already divorced. Keep that in mind, but don’t let Little Jiang know just yet 😏
