Recently, the top paparazzo in Chinese entertainment posted a bombshell on Weibo that shot straight to the trending topics.
The current sugar daddy of a popular three-character-named celebrity with the surname B had been poached by a junior from the same company.
The trending topic was taken down that very day, and the post vanished.
That night, Bo Xianxing received an endorsement contract for a luxury watch brand from Sheng Mingyi, the person in charge of Shengshi Entertainment herself. It was the kind of deal that made everyone in the industry green with envy. The message attached read, “Xingxing, I’ll give you everything you want.”
Li Yun, the three-time grand-slam actress whom her fans called an aloof beauty on a high peak, pressed her elegant, slender fingers against Bo Xianxing’s delicate waist. She lowered her head and nuzzled Bo’s nose, her voice husky. “I didn’t know she was your junior. We just happened to be on the same show, and I was a mentor.”
The next day, emerging director Weng Keyi returned from overseas with an award, turned down her engagements, and swept Bo Xianxing into her arms, still dusty from the road. Her rough fingertips brushed Bo’s pale collarbone as she spoke, breathing heavily. “I’ll have the Best Actress play second fiddle to you. You’ll be my leading lady.”
Looking at the compensation her sugar mommies had offered, Bo Xianxing sneered. “So it really is a bad idea to hang yourself from a single tree.”
The junior who had appeared in the scandal then placed photos she had secretly taken of Bo Xianxing getting intimate with her sugar mommies in front of her. Her eyes were greedy and obsessed. “Leave them. I can give you something better.”
Bo Xianxing gripped Bai Qingjia by her fragile throat, her expression full of menace. “What if I don’t?”
Bai Qingjia laughed dreamily, her eyes dark with obsession and covetousness. “You wouldn’t want them to find out you have more than one sugar mommy, would you, Sis?”
As far as Bo Xianxing was concerned, every dog needed to be leashed differently:
The emotionally avoidant CEO needed to chase his wife through hell and back, and be rejected thousands upon thousands of times;
The dignified, cool Best Actress needed to be dragged down from her pedestal, stained with worldly desires, and driven mad in public;
The affectionate, radiant puppy needed a tight collar, and after being pushed away, had to come running back with red eyes;
The scheming green-tea little sister needed to suffer the consequences of her own actions and beg with her tail between her legs.
But what if the dogs all knew one another?
Bo Xianxing thought she was about to get caught, but it turned out every fish in her pond had a mind of her own.
Sheng Mingyi’s usually merciless eyes held a pleading look. “Even if I’m just one of your backup options, don’t cut me out completely.”
Li Yun remained as cool and composed as ever, but the woman in power lowered her head. “You can use my resources and connections as you please. You don’t have to give me a title. Just don’t avoid me.”
“I just got a tongue piercing. I hear it feels amazing. Want to try it?” Weng Keyi, a Latin American mixed-race beauty, was as unreservedly enthusiastic as ever.
The green-tea little sister, who loved stirring up trouble, decided to make the first move after crawling through the darkness. “Sis, I’m different from them. I’m the only one who’ll feel sorry for you~”

Coming soon: the neighboring story, The Cannon Fodder on a Beastfolk Dating Show
Qiu Lingwei discovers she is the cannon-fodder female supporting character in a beastfolk yuri dating-show novel.
In the original story, she uses her beauty to flirt with everyone. Her ex-girlfriend, Best Actress Si Yin, exposes her for being promiscuous and throwing her weight around, destroying her career and reducing her to a backdrop for the heroines’ beautiful love stories.
With the original plot in hand, Qiu Lingwei thinks: Thanks for asking. I’ve got this comeback story in the bag!
The cold, abstinent snow-wolf CEO? Keep your distance and smile professionally.
The languid, sharp-tongued black-cat artist? Help her out seamlessly, but never cross the line.
The sunny, straightforward golden-lion athlete? Respond brightly. Long live friendship.
The gentle, sensitive butterfly-clan perfumer? Thank her politely. What a warm senior.
The sweet, airheaded panda senior? These snacks are delicious. Long live my senior!
Qiu Lingwei’s goal is simple: avoid every death flag, clear her name and make a comeback, focus on her career, and stay single and fabulous to the end!
She carefully hides her fox tail and does her best to play the cheerful junior. But things turn out completely differently.
The icy snow wolf Xuelai gazes at her darkly as she slips her some suppressants. “I admit it. You’ve attracted me.”
The black cat Miao Miaoyu leans languidly against the window, her fingers running over Qiu Lingwei’s bristling fox ears. “Little liar, aren’t you tired of pretending?”
The golden lion Shi Wuyang pins her to the wall with a bold move. “Don’t run! I’ve got your back!”
The butterfly-clan perfumer Lan Ranxing gently embraces her, catching the scent of her unease. “I can sense your worries. Let yourself rely on me.”
The panda senior Yan Zhuyu silently offers her bamboo-shoot snacks. “Have something to eat when you’re feeling down.”
Qiu Lingwei: ??? Weren’t I supposed to stay single and fabulous? Did I get the everyone’s-favorite script by mistake?!
Worse still, the Best Actress ex-girlfriend who had tried to drag her into the abyss makes a surprise entrance at the livestream, smiling with venom:
“Had enough fun? You’ll never get away from me.” Her cold, snake-like eyes lock onto their prey as she prepares to unleash a trove of dirt.
In front of the cameras, Qiu Lingwei’s smile is perfect, but her fingers curl slightly and sweat beads on her forehead.
But this time, she isn’t alone.
The cold, regal wolf woman lets her full presence show. “You want to touch her? Have you asked me?”
The cat-like beauty sneers and bares her claws, her words dripping with venom. “You venomous old hag. You’re past your prime.”
The sunny little firecracker bristles with fury. “Who dares bully my Lingwei?”
The healing butterfly wings gently fold around her, silently lending her strength.
The adorable panda senior turns into a protective mama bear and refuses to budge.
Five beastfolk sisters, each with her own distinct style, reach out to help her at once. Qiu Lingwei is both moved and stunned. As the air grows increasingly charged, she clutches her fox tail and nearly cries:
Help! This love triangle is even harder to deal with than my ex! What happened to turning my cannon-fodder fate around and focusing on my career? Sisters, you don’t have to love me this much!
Theme: Facing the sun and growing toward the light
Mr. Sheng's family must be difficult to deal with. Xiao Bo was terrified when she went to Mr. Sheng's house before. This matter has not been resolved yet. How is Xiao Bo supposed to get along with Mr. Sheng's family after getting married? Besides, President Sheng hasn't cared about Xiao Bo's career all these years. Xiao Bo has been playing decorative roles and getting criticized.
Fans who are career-oriented can really be happy to have such an ambitious idol like Xingxing.
[The glasses] don't even go below the neck; they've been locked up all day.
"Although the fireworks illuminated my eyes, even at the height of their brilliance, the starlight remained. Therefore, the starlight doesn't linger; it moves ever onward." "But the starlight has already reached us, and there's already a time difference."
Sheng Mingyi's emotions are growing and flourishing, hence the saying, "Love makes you young." 😏
Nine days have passed, the holiday can finally end 🐶
When it comes to having the right attitude when pursuing someone, Xiaobai is number one!
The puppy is so cute, but I still love the star who's focused on his career the most.
Suddenly I remembered that foreigners' prime time is relatively short; could the puppy director's mixed heritage have also been inherited...? [Shut up]
So, the resources that President Sheng gave her before were superficial, because at the time President Sheng didn't intend for her to do this job long-term?
