Don't Disturb Me While I Raise My Fish

[The neighboring novel, Coveting the Stars, is now available!]

That night, Wen Yanying missed out on an award, her agent betrayed her, and her boyfriend cheated on her.

She got completely drunk.

Her best friend found her an absolutely gorgeous guy.

He looked a little like her ex, so she let loose.

After ending her contract, Wen Yanying went to sign with a new company and brushed past a man.

He wore a black silk shirt, gave her a cold look, and curled his lips in a mocking smile.

"Didn't you say you couldn't forget me?"

Who are you? You do look a bit like my ex, though.

Wen Yanying smiled, her red lips like flames and her voice rich and sultry.

"Hey, handsome, are you free?"

Huo Yuan: ...

#He looks like my ex, so he thinks I'm using him as a stand-in. What do you mean, I've already been his stand-in once? #

Huo Yuan was furious when he found out Wen Yanying had someone else in her heart.

Later, he realized she was looking for the man from the night she got drunk.

He bent down to look her in the eye. His voice was still cool, but his lips curled up despite himself.

"You don't have to look anymore. It was me."

"Do you think I look like him?"

"???"

Wait, I think you've misunderstood something!

#What do I do when the fish I've been raising thinks he's his own replacement? Asking urgently, please help#

#I can only play along and keep up the misunderstanding to save my own skin#

It's rumored that Huo Yuan, president of XR Group, is an iceberg, and that any woman who tries to get close to him meets a bad end.

Yet, starting one day, people kept seeing a beautiful woman in a red dress sneaking into his car.

One day, a photo of Huo Yuan coldly and domineeringly dragging the beauty into a house spread all over the internet.

Only the beauty's back was visible, but the entire internet speculated and spun countless stories about a domineering CEO stealing someone's lover.

But at the very same time,

the man who had just learned the truth about being a stand-in had set aside all his pride.

"A stand-in... a fish you're raising... a backup... anything is fine."

Huo Yuan's voice was hoarse. He lowered his eyes and gave a self-mocking tug at the corner of his mouth.

"Don't go."

#I thought I was my own stand-in and was pretty pleased about it, but then, haha#

* The female lead has no heart and treats the male lead as a pastime early on (he is not a stand-in).

* Nothing happened on the night she let loose.

* The exaggerated praise and cheesy pickup lines are all from the internet.

Coveting the Stars

#After breaking up, I went on a dating show with my ex#

Shi Fanxing and Chen Muchuan once had a passionate, all-consuming romance.

After their breakup, they never spoke again and swore that whoever gave in first would be a dog.

-

After returning to China, Shi Fanxing accepted an invitation to join a dating show.

The production team forced the contestants into pairs to develop feelings. On the first day, Shi Fanxing met the male partner she would be spending the next two months with

Looking at the face that had once lain beside her in bed five years ago, Shi Fanxing parted her red lips. Her eyes gleamed with a faint smile, and even the beauty mark beneath her eye was alluring.

"Hello, Mr. Chen. I hope we'll get along over the next two months."

As if they were strangers.

Chen Muchuan's eyelashes trembled. His face expressionless, he gave her a cool reply.

Even more like a stranger than she was.

-

After a few episodes, the audience grew increasingly heated, blasting Shi Fanxing for using him to gain attention and throwing herself at him.

Midway through the show, the production team launched a live-stream bonus episode.

The other three pairs of guests gathered, with Shi Fanxing the only one missing.

Chen Muchuan failed his mission and chose a punishment, drawing a card that told him to call his ex-girlfriend.

But a strange man's voice answered.

"Sorry, she's asleep."

That was the first time anyone had seen Chen Muchuan, the famous ice sculpture of the entertainment world, who would remain unruffled even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, run out like a madman.

The film crew followed him

Downstairs from the apartment building, Chen Muchuan suddenly pinned Shi Fanxing against a tree. His thin lips hovered close to the tip of her nose, though he kept a tiny distance between them.

His eyes were dark as ink. Slowly, he lowered his head and called out beside her ear.

"Woof."
