After Keeping a Well-Behaved Stray Dog for Myself

[Play the pig to eat the tiger, scheming gong x loyal, devoted uke who loves the whole world]

Secret identities, groveling pursuit, and a love triangle.

Min Min rescued a little stray dog who’d stolen a necklace.

Before she even learned the poor little dog’s name, it had already stolen her heart.

Min Min gave her the necklace to sell for money, even though it was her only hope of returning to the country.

The little stray dog gradually revealed her true colors: spoiled, willful, always demanding things, and a shameless flirt.

Wearing red earrings given to her by another woman and carrying the scent of wild night-blooming jasmine, she makes Min Min so anxious she cries until her eyes are red.

But Min Min is afraid the little stray will leave, so she doesn’t dare say anything.

When the little dog pins her down, she’s still wearing those earrings.

Amid their unrestrained pleasures, the little stray asks her which of them is prettier, herself or Min Min’s ex.

The little stray says, “You only like my face, don’t you? You only like me because I look like her, right?”

Her ex, Qu Que, is prettier.

Min Min is so dazed she forgets to lie. Qu Que is a little prettier. Even now, she still calls her by the wrong name.

“How many times did you sleep with that woman?” the little stray asks.

“Hu... about a hundred times.”

“Exactly how many? I won’t stop until you count them all.”

Min Min’s ex, Qu Que, cheated on her one rainy night when she was heartbroken.

Not long after, Qu Que sent her to her own older sister’s territory. Under normal circumstances, Min Min would have died there.

Qu Que’s older sister, Qu Ya, has an even worse temper. She’s cruel and scheming by nature, but damn it, she’s a military genius.

As it happens, the “little dog” Min Min picked up is none other than Qu Ya herself.

After Min Min takes her home as if she were a little dog, the first time her soft lips leave Qu Ya’s cheek, Qu Ya experiences suffocation for the first time in her life.

What does it feel like to be unable to breathe without someone?

One day, Min Min cries and tells her she can no longer afford to keep her, and that her identity as a spy might have been exposed. The military commander Qu Ya will soon put out a warrant for her arrest.

To keep the little stray from getting caught up in it, she formally breaks up with her.

…

Qu Ya finds that no matter how she holds Min Min’s face, she can’t wipe away her tears.

In the end, she can only give up on comforting her.

With her, Qu Ya will rule by sheer force of will.
