Can't a Beta Office Drone Get a Big Win?

Also known as: Can a Delicate Beta Not Achieve Great Things?

Going premium on October 15

Xiang Zhixu is nothing but a low-grade beta. At twenty-five, she has achieved nothing. Every day, she either works as a chauffeur for rich people or swipes a couple of packs of tissues when clocking in at the office, then mooches a couple of meals off her coworkers. Her special skill is keeping a blank expression while wiping a client's vomit off herself, then driving them home.

Everyone says she's famous for her easygoing nature. In reality, she's just out of options.

In short, her motto in life is: Wherever you fall, lie down and make yourself comfortable. Her core programming says that even if her partner wakes her up in the middle of the night for sex, she should still tell them to hurry up and go back to sleep.

Her partner, Xia Huanyue, is actually a wealthy omega. She thinks Xiang Zhixu is hopeless and finds her especially irritating, yet she also believes Xiang Zhixu would never have the nerve to scheme her way into money.

Once Xiang Zhixu learns her identity, she doesn't mind. Xia Huanyue is so rich, after all. She's just having a little fun with her.

So when Xiang Zhixu is broke and down in the dumps, Xia Huanyue showers her with money while they get intimate.

When Xiang Zhixu is tired and distant, that's fine: a little drug will fix that.

Their days pass in a mundane routine of Xia Huanyue looking down on her while Xiang Zhixu pinches her here and there. But when Xiang Zhixu hears the young lady is getting married, she figures that as a wage slave, she should go back to work.

Of course. She can't smell pheromones or soothe Xia Huanyue. All she can do is clumsily try to please her, and she's a block of wood herself.

So Xiang Zhixu goes back to her hometown to meet a beta, gets herself ready to marry, and then the young lady comes after her. Gritting her teeth, eyes red with fury, she says, "Xiang Zhixu! You're only allowed to serve me for the rest of your life!"

Xiang Zhixu is the pursuer.

A listless, delicate woman x a seductive, spoiled, willful heiress

Falling for the Old Money Alpha

Jian Shiyi, an S-class old-money alpha, has a terrible reputation. Everyone says she's a born player.

But Jian Shiyi thinks she's been unfairly judged.

All she did was comfort her fiancee's best friend at their engagement party,

while also being unable to turn down the passionate advances of a pretty junior,

while also sponsoring an online friend from a poor family who insisted on being her secret lover,

while also letting her half-sister cross the line,

and, at the same time, getting to know several new friends at an elite military academy during an election campaign...

But she's not a player. How could she be a player?

She's being treated a little unfairly.
