Can a Little Taotie Become a Canary?

Jiang Maomao is a lucky beast, a Taotie who grew up in the mountains. Since he was often hungry, he decided to go to the city and find a job that provided room and board.

But he ate so much that several bosses let him go soon after he started working.

To support himself, he had no choice but to work eight jobs on his own. On weekends, he also volunteered at a nearby nursing home.

Volunteers don't get paid, but there's all the rice you can eat.

While giving the elderly residents massages, Maomao would watch melodramas with them.

The first time he watched a melodrama about a rich family:

Maomao: The CEO's family has so much food.

After watching a bunch of episodes:

Maomao: So if you stick with a CEO, you get a place to live and all the food you can eat?

A week later, a famous entrepreneur came to visit the nursing home.

Maomao, seeing a CEO in real life for the first time: !!!

So the things in TV dramas are real! The CEO is really handsome, and after he showed up, even the nursing home's meals got better!

If I stick with him, I'll have food!

Jiang Maomao's eyes sparkled!

To be named one of the Top Ten Young Entrepreneurs of the Year, Gu Huiying made a special visit to the nursing home run by his group.

A pretty little boy came running up to him, asking if he could come along with him.

CEO Gu: Hmph.

People in this information age will do anything to take a shortcut. They even found out ahead of time that he was coming to the nursing home to do charity work.

When will these people understand that he's a new-generation entrepreneur who leads a clean life, not some coal baron? No matter how good-looking someone is, they won't make him cross his moral boundaries.

But after visiting the nursing home several times, CEO Gu kept seeing the little guy working hard. It was rare to find someone so persistent in pursuing him, yet willing to work hard.

CEO Gu couldn't help taking a couple more looks.

One time, while cooking for the residents, Gu Huiying accidentally burned himself. The little guy rushed around taking care of him.

CEO Gu looked down at the other's soft hair. His moral boundaries began to waver.

Maybe being a coal baron wouldn't be so bad...

A little scene

The first day Jiang Maomao became a kept man.

CEO Gu showed off his wealth by taking Jiang Maomao to a French restaurant that was almost impossible to book, where they had the whole place to themselves.

Music, flowers, and fine food: everything reeked of money.

After the meal, Gu Huiying smugly asked Jiang Maomao what he thought of dinner.

Jiang Maomao: It was good.

Very pleased, CEO Gu asked Jiang Maomao what he wanted to do next. With his deep pockets, he could grant any wish Jiang Maomao had.

Jiang Maomao asked cautiously, "Then could you take me to get fried rice from a street stall later?"

CEO Gu, who had been ready to buy him a house and a car, was so shocked by this modest wish that he nearly fell over.

What kind of kept man goes to street stalls after winning over his sugar daddy?!
