Li Chu jumped into the sea and woke up in 1980s Hong Kong. During this era of rapid economic growth, skyscrapers were rising and gold seemed to be everywhere, but he was nothing more than a penniless illegal immigrant. To make ends meet, Li Chu washed dishes by day and sold wine at a bar by night—while dressed in drag. One evening, a man with deep, striking features and an air of nobility fell for his act, buying out his entire stock under the dim lights.
Having earned his first bit of capital, Li Chu’s luck took an even wilder turn when he was suddenly identified as the long-lost young master of the prestigious Shao family. Despite the confusion over his true origins, Li Chu pushed his conscience aside and moved into the luxurious Shao mansion. He spent his days charming the family matriarch while secretly planning to hoard enough savings to eventually disappear.
After two weeks of indulging in a glamorous lifestyle, Li Chu returned home hungover only to be caught at the door. Standing on the grand spiral staircase was the very man he had scammed a month ago. As the man’s cold, dark eyes fixed on him, Li Chu’s sobriety returned instantly, his legs trembling in fear. A servant stepped forward to introduce them: “Young Master Chu, this is your second uncle, Shao Tingyue.”
Shao Tingyue was the legendary new Ship King of Hong Kong and the stern, traditional head of the Shao household. When word eventually leaked that the family’s long-lost scion was actually a fraud, the city buzzed with rumors about the miserable fate awaiting the imposter. Yet, at a high-society banquet, the formidable Shao Tingyue appeared with Li Chu tucked firmly against his side. While the boy yawned with blatant impatience, the powerful man remained unfazed, his gaze lingering on a mark behind the youth’s ear as he whispered affectionately to his little fraud.
