I Marked a Top-Tier Alpha

[New book: Please add My Favorite, The Max-Level Big Shot Retires and Is Reborn as a Mermaid Baby] On Song Yanxiao's nineteenth birthday, he did three things. 1. Attended his family's new product launch. 2. Slept with the spokesperson his family had just signed for the new product. 3. Marked Shen Li, a top-tier Alpha. Shen Li was the second son of the prestigious Shen family in the capital. He didn't want to go into business, so he entered showbiz as an actor. At just twenty-six, he won the Best Actor crown and became one of the hottest top-tier stars in the industry. This year, the company picked a new product for him to endorse. Shen Li attended the product launch as agreed, where he ran into Song Yanxiao, who was drunk and had latched onto him, refusing to get down. Later, Shen Li discovered that the Song family's youngest son always wore precious metals from head to toe, put on heavy smoky makeup, and had a fiery temper, like a blazing-hot little chili pepper. But once you peeled him open and took a bite, he turned out to be a little sweet bun filled with honey. The Song and Shen families joined together through marriage. Shen Li's solo fans were furious, and cursed Song Yanxiao online every day. Song Yanxiao's response was... Posting photos of himself and Shen Li on Weibo every day. Showing off the breakfast Shen Li made him, the earrings Shen Li gave him, the kiss marks Shen Li left beside his collarbone... He even persuaded Shen Li, who had never appeared on a variety show, to join a major couples' reality show, where they shamelessly showed off their love. The solo fans were furious, cursing Song Yanxiao as a shameless vixen. The Li Xiao CP fans went wild. [Aaaah, Li Xiao have dropped even more sugar again!!!] [CP fans are ecstatic [crying] [crying]] [Their double-standard sweetness is so good. Yanxiao is a little chili pepper, but as soon as he gets in front of his husband, he turns into a flirtatious little sweet Omega who coos and cuddles. How is he so cute?] [Shen Li's gaze is so doting.] [Are Yanxiao's lips swollen?] [OMG, they were fine yesterday, but now they're swollen. Just how wild were these newlyweds last night???] A sweet and spicy, masterful-tea-artist kitten x a doting, ridiculously manly Alpha Fun fact: When a top-tier Omega encounters a highly compatible Alpha during heat, there is a 0.001% chance of a mark forming.

"There's a tiny life growing here. You have to help me bring it into this world safely and healthy." K freezes. "Are you crazy? We're both Alphas." Harvey throws the pregnancy test results at K's face. "I used to be." K reads them, dumbfounded. "You're going to have my baby?" Harvey's expression turns cold. "Correction: this is my baby. Once it's born safely, you can go back to your territory and never show your face to me again." K has always hated the cold and hot-tempered imperial general. Every time they meet, they clash head-on, and Harvey left a scar on K's chest. K has always thought that sooner or later, he would leave a scar like that on Harvey too.

Jiang Shuo set the record for the fastest clear of the Infinite Horror Game. He was about to begin a laid-back retirement, but when he opened his eyes, he had become a mermaid baby stuffed into a glass fish tank to be smuggled away. His dream of a lazy retirement has turned into being a nursing fish? The lousy System has a little culture, but not much. He also has a twin brother, locked in an iron cage, whose crying sounds like a demon wailing. Jiang Shuo, a mermaid baby planning an escape, can't transform his tail into legs. All he can do is coax and threaten his brother into carrying his little fish tank as he runs. Unfortunately, his brother is a crybaby! What do you do when a little brat keeps crying? Jiang Shuo swats him with his tail. But he accidentally hits the security camera in the storage room, switching on the livestream. A mermaid baby from the golden-tailed mermaid clan, thought extinct for a century, suddenly appears in the public eye, and the Shell livestream platform's service system is overwhelmed. The Imperial Marshal, infamous for his brutality, watches the livestream and sees a little face that looks seventy percent like his own. He remembers the male secretary who had been by his side for ten years before suddenly vanishing three years ago. One night of passion led to the disappearance of his trusted aide of ten years. The long-single Imperial Marshal immediately sets out to find his baby. Mermaid songs can heal mental power instability, but only mermaids of the golden-tailed clan can ease the suffering of SS-rank powerhouses. Jiang Shuo can even stack buffs: when he uses his mermaid voice to recite a mind-clearing talisman, its healing effect doubles! SS-rank powerhouses from across the stars rush over, showering him with extravagant gifts, all just to have this little one, not even knee-high, recite a few lines of strange writing for them.

Before entering the Infinite Horror Game, this man was already a highly gifted celestial master. Unfortunately, brilliance can be a fatal flaw. When he entered the horror game's S-rank instance, which had a clear rate of only 3%, he crushed the boss's head with his bare hands in just three days... Before he knows it, Qin Tianshu has watched him again and again. Every time Jiang Shuo picks an even harder game, Qin Tianshu casually grabs a System to chat with. "Do you think he'll make it out in one piece this time and keep his record for the fastest clear?" The trillions of Systems have all heard of Jiang Shuo. They nod in unison. "Of course. Jiang Shuo is amazing." Qin Tianshu is satisfied, then deliberately furrows his brow. "But his waist is so slim..." The Systems: "..." The boss is becoming more and more dog-like. On the day Jiang Shuo retires, Qin Tianshu tampers with the data. A bug occurs, turning Jiang Shuo into a rare mermaid baby and Qin Tianshu into an even smaller baby: a half-dragon, half-human. He also loses his memories. He follows the mermaid baby around, crying every day. Because he's a crybaby and rather stupid, he gets beaten every three days and thrashed every five. After beating him, the mermaid baby gives him a sweet treat to make up for it. Qin Tianshu had planned to conquer the other with his powerful charm. After regaining his memories, he shuts himself away in despair. Note: The top and bottom are not blood-related~ Advance preview of the next book, Top-Tier Star and Best Actor Marry by Contract. Please add it to your favorites QAQ 1. Lin Ye has always been a clean freak and a beauty lover. Ever since kindergarten, he has flirted with pretty, fair-skinned, delicate little boys. Until his secondary gender manifested in his second year of high school, he was the neighborhood's little bully and everyone else's boyfriend. The result of his secondary gender test: he's an Omega, a late-blooming, defective Omega whose secondary gender manifested years later than other people's. His nemesis, Lu Duanxing, is an Alpha of the top-grade type. Lin Ye has hated Lu Duanxing since kindergarten, because every pretty boy he liked would turn around and confess to Lu Duanxing. That smug little shit would then parade around with them, showing off their love in front of Lin Ye. Just before the college entrance exam, a talent scout discovers Lin Ye. After the exam, he's sent to compete on the hottest boy-group audition show of the year, and successfully debuts as part of a group. He thinks he's finally beaten Lu Duanxing at something, but then Lu Duanxing suddenly announces that he'll sign with an entertainment company and debut as an actor. A few years later, Lin Ye becomes a top-tier star in the music industry thanks to his beautiful voice and perfect dancing. Lu Duanxing wins every major acting award there is, becoming the youngest Grand Slam Best Actor. Each rules his own world, and they never appear on screen together. The fans of their two camps can turn their online flame wars into a spectacular sight. 2. Just as Lin Ye thinks he and Lu Duanxing can avoid each other for the rest of their lives, news breaks that he's a fake young master. A flood of scandals follows, and selectively edited recordings, videos, and photos all become knives plunged into him. The career-ending scandal alarm sounds. Lin Ye is also betrayed by his manager and nearly sent to the bed of an old man. That night, Lin Ye stumbles into Lu Duanxing's room by mistake. The next day. Lu Duanxing hands him a prenuptial agreement. "Marry me by contract, and I'll take care of the scandals." Lin Ye fights the urge to spit in Lu Duanxing's face. "Why pick me?" Lu Duanxing: "I'm allergic to Omega pheromones. You're the exception." Lin Ye bursts out laughing. "Sure, but I have one condition: other than when I'm in heat and need you, we won't have marital relations, and we'll sleep in separate rooms." Lu Duanxing: "No problem." 3. As soon as Lin Ye and Lu Duanxing leave the civil affairs office with their marriage certificate, the news spreads online. Fans of both sides: ??? Brother, if you're being held hostage, just blink. To save his rapidly crumbling reputation, Lin Ye has no choice but to act like a loving husband with Lu Duanxing, and even join a dating reality show with him. They follow a template for how to act like a loving couple. Lu Duanxing doesn't eat green peppers, so Lin Ye puts a huge bowlful on his plate. Lin Ye is wild but afraid of haunted houses, so Lu Duanxing drags him inside for an adventure. One eats until his face turns green, the other comes out with a face as white as a sheet. They still have to thank each other for being considerate and hold hands while pouring on the fake sweetness. The comments on the broadcast: You two are fake spouses, aren't you? Even the couples on the divorce reality show next door are more lovey-dovey. CP fans: Make it work if you can. If you can't, get divorced. Later, a trending topic appears on Weibo: #Have Those Spouses, Whom Even Their CP Fans Told to Divorce, Divorced Yet?# Lin Ye: Divorce. Right now. I'll take a cab to do it.
