The Rebellious Alpha Woos His Lover on a Dating Show

---- A plea for survival before we begin: This is not a traditional insectoid novel. Female top, male bottom, with the story focused on the bottom. The author's writing is amateurish, the logic is dead, and this is purely self-indulgent fluff, essentially a brainless, mutually doting sweet romance. If you like traditional insectoid stories or are a die-hard top or bottom stan, please click the X in the upper right and flee immediately. Hesitate, and you'll get hit by a landmine! After Zhou Mu unexpectedly fainted, he never imagined that when he opened his eyes again, he would have become an insectoid, and a rare male at that. Oh my god! A male! Doesn't that mean he's a top? Zhou Mu was a delicate little bottom who even used butt masks to take care of himself. In a world where bottoms were everywhere and nobody could rely on anyone, he had spent twenty-five years single since birth without finding his top. He never thought that after transmigrating, he would become a top. What kind of cruel joke is this?! Even worse, the male he'd transmigrated into had pheromones that were too weak to get female insectoids pregnant, making it hard for him to find a suitable male spouse. He was about to be hit with a steep bachelor tax, so his only option was to join a romance show broadcast across the stars and go on a forced blind date. Fortunately, there was a male on the show who was exactly his type. Those pectorals, those abs, those long legs: every detail was right on the mark for Zhou Mu. Ah! He was simply Zhou Mu's dream top! Zhou Mu desperately tried to convince himself that he could be the bottom for this man. But, sob, he still really wanted the man to be his top. * Qin Zhou was a rebellious female insectoid. Looking at those delicate, fragile males, he simply couldn't imagine ever being pinned beneath one of those pretty little "toys." But he was about to be exiled by his family for remaining single. To keep his inheritance rights, he had no choice but to join a romance show broadcast across the stars and go on a forced blind date. Fortunately, there was a male on the show who could barely get female insectoids pregnant. Wasn't he just the perfect partner, made to order? * So, Zhou Mu wanted to avoid the tax, while Qin Zhou wanted to avoid exile. The two hit it off and became a couple. On their wedding night, Qin Zhou pulled Zhou Mu, who was trying to approach him, into his arms. A sharp bone spear extended from his elbow and pressed against Zhou Mu's vulnerable Adam's apple. "You? Try touching me and see what happens." Zhou Mu raised both hands and gazed at him innocently. His pampered, tender lips moved close to Qin Zhou's ear. "How about you do it instead?" Qin Zhou: The door to a new world had opened. * Strong, roguishly handsome female insectoid top x shamelessly lustful, sweet and coy male bottom Reader's guide: 1. One-on-one, no switching. 2.

Preview of an upcoming novel A satisfying, leveling-up story, focused on career development. At thirty, Shen Nian'an had achieved nothing. Unemployed and heartbroken, he planned to take a long vacation in the old country house his grandfather had left him, and sell some local specialties on the side. But on his very first day back, he noticed that strange noises kept coming from the abandoned backyard in the middle of the night. He worked up the courage to clear it out, only to discover that the dry well in the backyard connected to a magical botanical garden, where a group of strange little spirits lived. The spirits: "So you're the person that old man said would come take care of us." * A short-tempered young man with red hair immediately took advantage. "The old man promised to buy me an electric guitar. Hurry up and get me one." Shen Nian'an didn't even look up. "I'm broke." The red-haired youth pouted, brought over a plate, and began plucking out his hair. When he was done, he handed it to Shen Nian'an. "Take it and sell it for money." Shen Nian'an looked disgusted. "Ew." A few days later, a review appeared on Shen Nian'an's Taobao shop: "This is top-grade red tea! In the past, only two ounces were available each year. Do you have any more, shop owner? I'll take it all." A delicate, fair-skinned young man followed close behind. "Big brother, I want a DSLR camera. I heard it's an essential for artsy types." Shen Nian'an: "Yours costs more than his." The fair-skinned young man took out a glass and began spitting into it. Shen Nian'an was at his breaking point. "What is wrong with you people?" A few days later, Shen Nian'an listed the product in his Taobao shop: genuine tea tree essential oil. Excellent for reducing inflammation and clearing acne. Even a pimple the size of a fingertip will flatten overnight. A top-tier star posted an angry message on her main account: "I've only got half a bottle left! I don't feel safe at all. There's so little stock that I can't get any. Please restock!" A youth with a high ponytail came out holding a handful of little red berries. "Big brother, big brother, I've grown seeds! My seeds are super powerful." Shen Nian'an thought the little red berries were cute. He picked one up and popped it into his mouth, crunching it. The youth reached out in alarm. "Don't! If you eat my seed, then, ahem, you'll get pregnant." Shen Nian'an swallowed. The youth: ... Shen Nian'an said gloomily, "Whatever. It's not like I'll necessarily get the chance in this lifetime." The youth: "Then I want a game console." * Later, a landslide came down the mountain and washed an old acquaintance right to his door. Shen Nian'an took one look and thought, Well, well. Isn't this the young CEO who knew nothing, yet made an example of me in front of all the employees and fired me? Now the young CEO was eating his food, drinking his drinks, and living in his house. Before he left, Shen Nian'an would make sure to charge him a hefty sum! Then one night, Shen Nian'an got drunk. The next morning, he nervously asked the youth with the ponytail, "If a man eats your seed, will he, you know, get pregnant too?" The youth was absorbed in his game and didn't even look up. "Of course. The seeds from my Hundred-Seed Gourd don't care about gender!" Theme: No matter what circumstances you find yourself in, your fate is in your own hands.
