Yi Yi wants to eat fancy food, live in a fancy house, and wear fancy clothes.
But he's only a virtual pet, so he can't earn money on his own.
So he decides to scam a super-rich owner!
*
The Xu Group has been rooted in the business world for a century, with industries spanning the globe. Its president, Xu Junsheng, has a sharp eye and an iron fist, and has amassed wealth beyond what an ordinary person could earn in several lifetimes.
But in his personal life, Xu Junsheng is a stingy miser. He thinks over every cent carefully, spending it only with precision and purpose.
One day, Xu Junsheng is suddenly plagued by a rogue app that he can't uninstall by any means. Even after he changes his phone and computer, the app appears again right away.
A pink-and-orange app opens, and a matching little virtual person appears, looking on the verge of tears and utterly pitiful. "Sir, Yi Yi is so hungry. Could you give Yi Yi a little money to buy food?"
Xu Junsheng: ? A telecom scam?
"It's not a scam. Yi Yi just wants ten yuan to fill his tummy."
He's really not taking no for an answer.
"Get lost."
But the virtual person doesn't leave.
Those clear, watery eyes keep flashing before him, making him feel irritated, and Xu Junsheng's heartbeat inexplicably skips a beat.
[Payment complete: 10 RMB]
Xu Junsheng pays with a dark expression. "Can you get lost now?"
Yi Yi shakes his head and leans closer to the screen.
"Big Brother, will you take care of me?"
"Do I look like an idiot to you?"

Later.
Yi Yi clings to the edge of the screen, his big eyes blinking. "Master~ Yi Yi wants a garden."
Xu Junsheng pauses work and opens the app store. "Which one do you want?"
Yi Yi points to the most expensive one. "Can I have this?"
[Payment complete: 500,000 RMB]
"Yi Yi wants this little car, too~"
Xu Junsheng taps to pay without even blinking.
[Payment complete: 1,000,000 RMB]
"And..."
[Top-up amount: 3,000,000 RMB]
"Here's your pocket money. Be good and play by yourself for a while. I have a meeting, but I'll come keep you company later."
Xu Junsheng's finger touches the phone screen, gently tapping the little person on the head.

A shocking post suddenly appears on the Xu Group's forum.
#Breaking! The cold and snide, penny-pinching president is secretly obsessed with a dress-up game! He just blew five million!
#So childish, but so rich!
#Doesn't the president never spend money on pointless things?
The so-called ice-cold president is in the app's virtual space, picking out pretty little dresses for Yi Yi.
After spending five million, Xu Junsheng can enter the app's virtual space and physically touch the darling he's been raising.
The boy's legs are long and straight, swinging right before his eyes, so pale they're almost dazzling.
Xu Junsheng sees the forum posts and scoffs.
Hah. What would you know?
Spending money on your wife is only natural.

One day, just after Xu Junsheng gets home, a beautiful young man throws himself into his arms.
His hair is pink and orange, and he even has on the little demon horns from the incubus-themed role-play they did in the app's virtual space last night.
"Master~" The young man's voice is sweet and soft.
Xu Junsheng: ?!
How did his Yi Yi end up in the real world?
"Master, you've topped up a total of ten million! This is your unlocked surprise bonus! The more you top up, the longer Yi Yi can appear in the real world~"
Holding that soft, warm body, Xu Junsheng can barely keep the corners of his mouth from curling up.
There's a deal like this?
[Top-up amount: 1,000,000 RMB]
[Top-up amount: 1,000,000 RMB]
[Top-up amount: 1,000,000 RMB]
A pretty, green-tea-type bottom who breaks into his home x a top who's helpless at first but comes around later
