The Bad Puppy Keeps Pretending to Be Good

Puppy Fiction / Stalker Male Lead / Korean-Inspired Setting / Chaebol Academy / 1v1, Both Pure / Happy Ending Wicked Young Miss × “Good Puppy” 【Top Chaebol Heiress Pei Zhijing VS Sweet-on-the-Surface, Black-at-Heart, Despicable Illegitimate Son Cen Jinxi】 Synopsis written on August 18, 2026 Synopsis One: As the only daughter of a top chaebol family, Pei Zhijing hates illegitimate children most of all. When she was fifteen, her mother died of illness, and the mistress and illegitimate daughter her cheating father brought home seized the property that belonged to her. More than having her inheritance divided up, it was the superiority engraved in her bones that made her despise people like illegitimate children. Cen Jinxi, the illegitimate son the Cen family had just brought back, accidentally caught the seemingly lofty Miss Pei crying over a photograph of her deceased mother in private, only to be caught by the person herself. He soon became a thorn in the young miss’s side. Anyone who crossed Pei Zhijing was in for a bad time afterward. Academy Cafeteria Cen Jinxi accidentally spilled soup on Pei Zhijing’s shoes. Pei Zhijing crossed her legs and made him wipe them clean. After the meal, however, Pei Zhijing had the housekeeper deliver a new pair of shoes. Her reason: A puppy licked them wet. They’re filthy and disgusting. Villa Hotel Cen Jinxi heard indescribable sounds as soon as he entered. Pei Zhijing stared at the intertwined figures of her fiancé and another woman on the big screen and laughed. Cen Jinxi: Why are you watching this filthy stuff? Pei Zhijing: Of course it’s to familiarize myself in advance with the positions my fiancé likes. Cen Jinxi inexplicably grew irritated. While applying medicine to the young miss’s wound, he stared at her face as ambiguous sounds came from the big screen beside his ears, and he became aroused. Pei Zhijing watched him with amusement. Seeing his face flush red with humiliation and anger, she laughed. “Illegitimate children really are so lowly.” By chance, in order to seek the young miss’s protection, Cen Jinxi became the obedient little pup who was always at her heels. Everyone thought he was nothing more than Pei Zhijing’s plaything. Until one day, they saw the jealous Cen Jinxi grab her by the neck and kiss her after the young miss slapped him. All that obedience and weakness, all that despicable humility and lack of ambition, was fake. It was merely a means of manipulating the young miss. Synopsis Two: Pei Zhijing was once his older brother’s fiancée. That alone left Cen Jinxi deeply insecure. His possessiveness was nearly pathological. After inheriting the family business, Pei Zhijing inevitably had to attend drinking parties. Countless shameless men tried to seduce his beautiful young miss. He knew their despicable methods all too well, because he had come up that very road himself. Whenever Pei Zhijing went out to socialize, Cen Jinxi video-called her once every hour. At first, she thought it was just a bit of fun between lovers. But as time passed, Pei Zhijing grew impatient with his possessiveness. This time, she turned off her phone. She was overseas anyway, so Cen Jinxi could not catch her. Once she returned home, she could buy him a few gifts and coax him back into a good mood. Her puppy was very obedient, after all. But she had clearly underestimated just how shameless Cen Jinxi could be. When she returned to the hotel slightly tipsy, Cen Jinxi was already waiting beside the bed with a basin of foot-washing water. A considerate husband? As if. The calmer the sky before a storm, the more violent the storm would be. There was a huge mirror in the room. In the chaotic reflection, it was impossible to tell who exactly was the Tainted pup. … Reading Guide: 1. Male-lead fans, stay away.
