No Creeps, Please! My Family’s a Legitimate Police Force

[Growing Crops and Cooking + Face-Slapping the Scum + Handsome Men + Mystery]

Synopsis: Everyone knows mushrooms are a renewable resource. Men are renewable resources, too.

Eat the right mushroom and you won't end up laid out stiff. After binding to a Spore System, Song Xingrao opens her purse wide and embarks on a wildly successful life, making a fortune in the capital with her mushroom hotpot business. When rivals try to sabotage her, she declares, “I raise mushrooms by imperial decree. Stay out of my way!”

She wants to earn enough money to buy points and reincarnate, but accidentally “gets involved” with Lu Mingting, the notorious power behind the capital's prisons. One, two, four, five, six times... She loses count.

Lu Mingting: If you won't marry me, I'm not letting you cuddle me anymore...

Song Xingrao: Hah! Food that you can look at but not eat is just hunger marketing! I don't care for men who won't let me kiss them!

“How about you marry into my family?”

Lu Mingting: ...

Song Xingrao: You're a man, so why are you being so fussy? Will cuddling me cost you a pound of flesh?

Lu Mingting asks the first question of the Code of Virtue for Men: Why does this woman who runs a restaurant look at him like he's food, with such ravenous hunger?

Reader's guide: The male and female leads have lots of push and pull. The heroine cares most about money, and the male supporting characters are memorable and get plenty of screen time.
