After Officer Mu Was Forced to Move In

Officer Mu catches a handsome “scammer who preys on people with his looks” on the street, matching a criminal profile: sharp brows, bright eyes, and a high nose bridge.

At first sight, Mu Chengxin firmly decides that this man is too good-looking not to take advantage of it. It would be a crime against nature if he didn't use his looks to scam people.

Then the “handsome scammer” is invited to stay at his place.

The handsome guy is his father's prized student, brought back from halfway across the world. There's no way he could be a scammer.

Mu Chengxin: Tsk.

At a club.

A little twink gets all flirty and starts drinking against Mu Chengxin.

He specifically orders tequila, and drinks it so theatrically, like some wild fox with barbs on its tongue, licking his own hand raw.

Competitiveness is in the bones of Mu the Tyrant. He's never lost at anything.

“Bully” Mu wipes his thumb across his lips, then runs his saliva-moistened fingertip over his collarbone, dripping with sex appeal. He takes the salt shaker and sprinkles some on his collarbone, his eyes as provocative as his unbuttoned shirt collar... Then he turns and hands the drink to the handsome guy he brought from home. “Bro, you drink.”

Liang Shi: “...”

There's no helping it. Officer Mu is on a mission and can't drink.

A modern, fictional crime-investigation story with a sweet romance.

The plot and romance are split about fifty-fifty.

Yi Qingtian was born into a distinguished family and has a happy home life. At school, he was a top student others could only admire from afar. After starting work, he became a renowned industry leader. His life was destined to go smoothly, and he handled everything with ease.

Zhou Yi was already out fending for himself at six, alongside his “dad,” who was twelve. He had no decent clothes or enough to eat, a tragic background, and a hard lot in life. All he could do was fight with everything he had just to survive.

He gazed up at the moon in the sky, but it remained beyond his reach.

One-sided love, mutual affection.

A little scene

After they got together, Yi Qingtian came to help Zhou Yi move.

A big blue-and-white striped bundle tumbled out of the cabinet.

The tycoon had never seen such an unadorned way of packing and asked, “What's this?”

“Stuff from when I was little.”

Yi Qingtian grew curious. “What were you like as a kid?”

Zhou Yi shook his head. “I don't remember.”

Yi Qingtian wouldn't let it go. “Do you have any pictures?”

Zhou Yi thought for a moment, opened the bundle, and rummaged all the way to the bottom, where he found a photo from his time at the orphanage.

It was a crowded group photo. Yi Qingtian studied it for ages without spotting his sweet kitty.

“Which one is you?”

Zhou Yi stopped packing, came over, and pointed at a big tree.

“I was behind the tree.”

Children who can only live in an orphanage are already unlucky.

And Zhou Yi wasn't even lucky enough to qualify for one.

Shan the Big Delinquent, CEO of an entertainment company, has never used his position to sleep with people at his own company.

He sleeps with the little models, actors, singers, and internet celebrities from other companies instead...

He says it's because a rabbit doesn't eat the grass around its own burrow. Making a mess with his own employees would make the company harder to manage.

His professional manager is furious. “Easier to manage? You stole all my talent! What the hell am I supposed to manage now?”

Shan Liang: Tsk. Manager Fang is great in every way, except he's too ambitious and swears too much.

Shan Liang is a typical businessman, with his mind full of deals. If he can buy something with money, he won't waste his feelings on it.

His usual principle is simple: if someone is willing to give you [beep], and you want it, just say yes. You enjoy yourself and give them a job opportunity at the same time. Everybody wins.

Even a seasoned bachelor like Mr. Big Delinquent occasionally takes a second look when he sees friends paired off. But he's never once considered dating himself.

Until one day, he meets someone in the elevator who ticks every box for him.

The guy lives in his building, and is clearly an entertainer at his own company.

You can't sleep with someone from your own company... unless you're dating.
