After the Global Gender Imbalance, I Became a Hot Property

share time: 2026-02-07 06:05:06

Lin Xiaoman, an ordinary office worker, never expected that the "Imbalance Era"—where the global gender ratio suddenly shifted to 10:1—would turn her from a "transparent person" into a "national protected resource." Once ignored even by food delivery riders, she now faces absurd chaos: her boss forces a VIP lounge on her, neighbors line up at her door to set her up with their sons, and even her ex-boyfriend, who just dumped her, begs for reconciliation through tears. But this "star treatment" feels like a cage to Xiaoman—everyone fixates on her "gender value," not her true desires. Until she meets Gu Chuan, a programmer who remembers she likes half-sugar milk tea. He doesn’t fawn over her; he just hands her a warm drink when she’s hiding from trouble and says, "You’re Lin Xiaoman first, not a 'female resource.'" Yet in Gu Chuan’s computer, there’s a classified document titled "Population Regulation Plan for the Imbalance Era"… When a "fought-over hot property" meets someone who loves her for who she is, Xiaoman must navigate the chaos to find out: what does it really mean to be "needed"?
