My name is Lin Ye, and I’m the most useless loser in the whole school.
My girlfriend dumped me for an older student. I caught them getting intimate at an internet cafe, was humiliated in front of everyone, cornered in the bathroom, beaten up in the dorm, and frozen out by my entire class. My grades plummeted, and I barely felt human anymore.
With nowhere else to turn, I became a bottom-tier paparazzo. My camera was busted, every shot came out blurry, and all I wanted was to scrape together enough to eat.
Who could have guessed that on my very first stakeout, I’d run into Wang Sicong, the entertainment industry’s watchdog? I was scared out of my wits and dropped to my knees, begging for mercy.
But when he looked at my sorry state, he simply said:
“Want to be a paparazzo? I’ll help you.”
I thought it was just some big shot acting on a whim. I never imagined it would cause an absolute sensation:
A cool, aloof movie king helped me stake out celebrities. A top-tier male star took photos for me. A sweet, innocent young actress kept watch. A sexy star helped block people, and a top-tier girl group scrambled to feed me scoops.
From award-winning actors and singers to top-tier idols, everyone revolved around me, fighting for the chance to be my personal paparazzo.
The older students who used to bully me trembled with fear and got down on their knees to apologize.
The whole school went from looking down on me to treating me with reverence.
While stars showered me with attention and romantic encounters kept coming, I quietly broke one juicy story after another.
The stars: “Boss, who do you want to photograph today? We’ll take care of it!”
Me: Stop trying to outdo each other! I really just want to be an anonymous little paparazzo!
