Is the Little Yin Messenger Getting Promoted Today?

What is the most painful thing in the world?

Zhu Ping'an: I passed the civil service exam yesterday, and died today.

After studying my heart out for three years, one death and I'm back to square one.

As luck would have it, the Underworld was recruiting more soul reapers. Zhu Ping'an declared, "Even if I'm dead, I'm still getting that iron rice bowl!"

But fine, soul reapers have to take an exam. Why do we have to attend so many classes, too?

Zhu Ping'an: Why do we have to learn regular script, clerical script, and seal script?

Wen Erya gently coaxed her. "Because the Ten Kings of Hell can't read simplified characters."

Zhu Ping'an: We even have to learn how to break up fights?

Zhang Songhe brandished his teaching pointer. "I'm not teaching you to break up fights. I'm teaching you conflict mediation!"

Zhu Ping'an: And what's with learning animal languages... Oh, I get it. So we can communicate with the demon clans without a hitch!

After graduation, she started the job, and one headache after another came her way.

Unfinished buildings, noise complaints, handling ghost residents' grievances...

Zhu Ping'an: It's fine. These are all necessary trials on the road to a promotion and a raise!

She thought she'd landed a story about turning her life around. Who could have guessed it would take a turn into otome territory?

It seems like all these guys are trying to seduce her!

With fireworks filling the sky, Wen Erya ended a kiss and panted softly. "We've kissed and touched. What am I to you?"

Between the sheets, Zhang Songhe held a collar between his teeth and pleaded, "Could you... tie me up, the way you tie up other people?"

One was a devoted, gentle husband, and the other a sly, charming fox. For a moment, she was caught between two men.

Zhu Ping'an declared, "Didn't humans grow two hands so they could hold a man in each arm?"

This is a [1v2] story. Please don't read if that's not your thing. The plot takes center stage, and the female lead's career is the main storyline. There will also be a bunch of adorable friends.

All the male leads are virgins. No angst for the female lead: she only suffers at work, never in love.

My next story will be: Yuanbao Village's Dog Dads and Their Diary of Raising a Child. If you're interested, please add it to your library.

In Yuanbao Village, deep in the mountains, lived three little dogs.

Sheltered by their owner, they spent their days eating and sleeping without a care in the world.

Then one day, their owner passed away, leaving behind a helpless human baby.

The villagers said that a child with no one to raise her had to leave home and go to a place called an "orphanage."

The baby cried and cried, heartbroken.

The little dogs licked her tears away and stepped forward.

What's so hard about raising a child? They could do it!

[Parenting Rule One: Help the child get ahead]

The little dogs rolled their eyes and decided to give out presents.

They carried spring flowers to school and wagged their tails as they handed them to the child's classmates.

The classmates were so charmed that they all voted for the child to become class monitor.

The child: Class monitor status unlocked!

[Parenting Rule Two: Keep the child safe]

The little dogs nodded earnestly and began escorting the child to and from school.

No matter how late it got, they waited obediently outside the school gates and took her backpack from her as soon as she came out.

They also made sure to bare their fangs at the village bullies.

The child: Personal safety unlocked!

[Parenting Rule Three: Give the child spending money]

The little dogs sprang into action and went herding sheep.

The sheep ran all over the mountains, and the happy dogs chased after them. After six months of exercise, the sheep were fit and their meat was firm.

Visitors from the provincial capital tried it, called it "organic food," and placed a large order.

The child: Spending money unlocked!

Thanks to the little dogs' loving care, the child grew up just fine.

She left Yuanbao Mountain and went from an orphan with nothing to the top scorer on her high school entrance exam, a student at Yanyuan University, and an e-commerce mogul.

Under the glare of the flashbulbs, reporters asked, "What drove you to succeed?"

She smiled softly. "For the answer, please ask my parents."

Three little dogs wearing bow ties poked their heads out and barked into the microphone. "Woof, woof, woof!"

The reporters: "???"

A handsome young man took the microphone. The reporters recognized him as her most loyal subordinate, and her childhood sweetheart.

"I'll translate. They said, 'Lots and lots of love.'" He gazed at her with warmth and devotion. "Little sister, did I get that right?"

A heartwarming slice-of-life story with adorable pets and rural life, about a girl growing up alongside her dogs.

The story takes place in the 1990s, but it isn't a period piece. There are plenty of liberties taken with the setting, so just treat it as background.

The dogs are real dogs, not beastmen. They're just exceptionally intelligent.

The male and female leads are cousins by marriage, with no blood relation. This is not incest.
