Translator notes:

1. A kept man: In this instance they use the chinese version of this phrase which means eating soft rice. It was rumored that the origin of this phrase came from when the young male lover of a rich old woman went to a restaurant to order a meal. The waiter asked them if you wanted their rice harder or soft to which the male lover replied soft. He did that to curry the love of his elderly lover as the woman was elderly and had bad teeth so it was difficult for her to eat harder and drier rice. The waiter replied “The old woman needs to eat soft rice but as a young man, why do you need to eat it?” And it became a term to refer to men who lived off their female lovers/dependent on them financially. This is also why househusbands are so looked down upon in China.
