The Maybach Meant for My Younger Brother’s Mentor

上错弟弟导师的迈巴赫

萝卜花兔子 · Luo Bo Hua Tu Zi · MM

Synopsis

For Zhao Buxi, better known as Zhao Erniu, life has been particularly good lately. His family’s cow has given birth to twins, and his beloved younger brother, Zhao Sheng, has earned a place in the graduate program of a prestigious university in Beijing. Despite having little formal education himself, Zhao Buxi couldn’t be prouder. He shows off his brother’s admission letter to anyone willing to look, blissfully unconcerned that he cannot actually read most of what it says. But when news breaks about graduate students being mistreated by supervisors who expect gifts from their families, his happiness turns into alarm. Determined to protect his brother’s future, he packs his bags and heads straight for the capital.

Unfortunately, city life has a few surprises waiting for him. While expecting a rideshare, Zhao Buxi accidentally climbs into a stranger’s luxurious Maybach, setting off a spectacularly awkward encounter with its handsome but decidedly unfriendly owner. That man is Fang Peizhi, a wealthy young heir who has chosen university teaching and scientific research rather than simply taking over his family’s business. Unimpressed by flattery, intolerant of attempts to curry favor, and already irritated by Zhao Buxi’s chaotic behavior, Fang wants nothing more than to put the incident behind him. Then Zhao Buxi discovers that this difficult stranger is none other than his younger brother’s graduate supervisor.

Convinced he has offended the very person responsible for Zhao Sheng’s academic future, Zhao Buxi becomes determined to make things right. His well-intentioned attempts only lead to more misunderstandings, particularly when the two find themselves spending time together around the university’s faculty housing. Their worlds could hardly be more different: one has learned to survive through hard work, thrift, and practical ingenuity, while the other possesses wealth, education, and professional distinction. Yet beneath their constant verbal sparring, unexpected moments of kindness and vulnerability begin to challenge their assumptions about each other. And for Fang Peizhi, the supposedly unsophisticated country boy gradually becomes someone impossible to ignore.

What begins with an accidental ride and an unwanted gift develops into an increasingly affectionate, often ridiculous romance between two men who have far more to discover about one another than either expects. As Zhao Buxi navigates unfamiliar opportunities and learns to see his own worth beyond his lack of schooling, Fang Peizhi finds his carefully ordered life becoming delightfully unpredictable. Meanwhile, Zhao Sheng has an entirely different problem brewing: the brilliant professor he chose for his academic future may soon become the last person he wants to hear talking about his love life.
