What Is with Boy Bands and Their Overhyped CPs?

Bai Xu is a broad-shouldered, clear-eyed college athlete who gets tricked into joining a boy band as its visual, with a monthly salary of 5,000 and meals and lodging included. The boy band has an extremely shocking name: A.B.O. Bai Xu is the A in A.B.O. The A.B.O. boy band is a group of slackers whose outrageous stunts shock the entertainment industry. While other groups chase their dreams, they relentlessly manufacture ships. While other groups go viral for their performances, they relentlessly manufacture ships. While other groups each pursue acting roles, they still relentlessly manufacture ships. Countless netizens rage that all they know how to do is manufacture ships! They're ruining the industry, unforgivable! Bai Xu, meanwhile, has been dazzled by his 5,000-a-month salary and wants to work hard to support his parents and his cat. He works diligently, cooperates enthusiastically, and focuses wholeheartedly on mastering the art of manufacturing ships. In the end, he achieves perfection! Before long, the whole internet is full of his shippers. "Traditional A/O is still the best. A domineering A and a delicate O are endgame! If you don't get it, you've missed out on a lifetime's worth of happiness!" "A/B has that ambiguous tension beyond pheromones. A strong A and a husbandly B, drool! If you don't ship them, you have no taste!" "Stop fighting, stop fighting! The three of them should just get together! Let's get the party started! I'm not shy, let me watch first!" Just when the entire internet thinks this group can only manufacture ships... Somehow, every album becomes a smash hit, they take first place on every music show, every stop on their world tour sells out, and their variety shows keep breaking viewership records across the internet. They become bona fide top-tier stars. But after all these years of shipping them, the fans have just one question. Bai Xu, who do you actually like? Bai Xu, holding a trophy: Like? I'm at work. (Confused) - "Hello, which one of my ships do you support?" "I'm a solo stan. I'm only your fan." "I've liked you since your photocards cost 15 each." 1. The main character is the pursuer.

Juanjuan's new serial, "Please Keep Pretending to Be Human Today Too," is updating daily! Click the author's page to check it out~!] Synopsis: Sang Zhao is a little orange cat. He was a pet cat twice before. Then, through a stroke of bad luck, his cultivation suddenly reached its peak and he transformed into a human. Now he has no choice but to work diligently, endure hunger, and do his best to pretend to be human. Pretending to be human is so hard. Pinyin is hard to learn, and he's not used to either the nine-key or the twenty-six-key keyboard. Everything he types is full of typos. Arithmetic is hard to learn too. He wants to buy one jin of sticky rice cake, but doesn't know how much a jin is, so he gets cheated into buying three and a half jin and is shortchanged by sixty cents. He really wants to stay a cat forever, scratching the curtains, digging at the floor, watching little birds fly past the window, and waiting for his human to come home from work and praise him as the cutest kitty in the whole world. Sang Zhao sighs deeply, tucks a laptop bag under his arm, bites into a sandwich, returns to his desk, and clumsily grabs the mouse. He keenly hears the humans behind him call him a "nepo hire." He takes out his phone, expertly opens Baidu, and quickly types a string of typos. [What does guanxi hu mean] - To improve his company's reputation, Tang Yu decides to do some charity work. He signs an agreement with the authorities, saying his company can hire some special people, commonly known as nepo hires. But... aren't they a little too special? He walks into the company and sees an employee walking on their hands and holding an umbrella with their feet. He gets into the elevator and runs into a salesperson elegantly wiping blood from the corner of their mouth. He starts work, still puzzled, and sees his new assistant walk in with a laptop balanced on their head, meowing as soon as they open their mouth. Tang Yu: ...Wow. A little crazy is good! Young people should be a little crazy. Clap, clap, clap! Later, Tang Yu grips his philtrum and lets out a piercing scream. "Why is everyone pretending to be human in my company?! If you're all going to pretend, at least do it properly! Sang Zhao, stop climbing the wallpaper! Get down from the ceiling!" 1. The main character is the pursuer: a silly cat x a corporate slave CEO. 2. A world overrun by monsters. Please keep pretending to be human today too! - Theme: Through the protagonist's positive everyday life, this story promotes correct values of equality and universalism.
