A City's business world has two titans: the established top-tier Zhong family and the Xie family, which rose to prominence only in the past decade but has already grown into a business empire.

But nearly everyone in the business world knows that Zhong Yan, the current head of the Zhong family, and Xie Shen, founder of the business empire, can't stand each other.

-

Xie Shen makes a successful investment and earns over a billion.

Zhong Yan coolly mocks him, saying it was just luck.

In response, the very next day Xie Shen steals a major project right out from under the Zhong family.

-

The two attend a banquet together. Everyone expects another grand showdown, but then they both realize they've been drugged.

Zhong Yan grabs Xie Shen as he tries to run. "If you can't handle it, I'll find someone else."

After a second of silence, Xie Shen carries him to bed and diligently spends the whole night with him.

But the next morning, Zhong Yan gets dressed and immediately disowns him. "We're both adults, Mr. Xie. You don't expect me to take responsibility, do you? Or should I name a price?"

Xie Shen: QAQ

Is he some kind of yellow duck?

-

Afterward, Zhong Yan discovers she's pregnant and calls Xie Shen with a dark expression.

Zhong Yan: "I'm pregnant."

Xie Shen: "?"

Zhong Yan: "It's yours."

Xie Shen: "!!!"

Zhong Yan: "I'm getting an abortion tomorrow. Are you coming?"

Xie Shen: "I am."

To take his wife home.

-

Xie Shen confesses his love.

Zhong Yan: "You like me, so you steal my projects? You like me, so you say I have a bad temper? You like me, so you refuse to sleep with me?"

Xie Shen: "Maybe you've heard of a hater. Haters are fans too. Being a fan means you like someone. You get it, Zhong Yan?"

Zhong Yan: "..."

Yeah, right.

Zhong Yan: "You're staying with me because of the baby?"

Xie Shen: "Of course not. If you don't believe me, we can keep the child and get rid of the father."

Zhong Yan: "..."

The baby: Emergency! Is it still too late to get a different dad?

Xie Shen: "Thanks for asking. I just got out of Zhong Yan's bed, so no."

-

"Zhong Yan, you were the only thing I dreamed of when I was young. For all the years ahead, I want you to be the only thing in my sight."

A story about the aloof beauty getting swept off her feet by a silly puppy.

-

Zhong Yan: A shrewd businesswoman, a born capitalist, and a domineering queen who controls the room. The receiving partner.

Xie Shen: A CEO who started with just five yuan, a maker of fifty-cent crafts, and a goofy, loyal dog of a man. The pursuing partner.

Coming soon: "The Variety-Show Extra Baby Lies Flat and Becomes Everyone's Favorite."

Yu Qingling, an overworked office drone, is born into the world as a baby. He and his unlucky young dad, Yu Nian, are extras destined to be cannon fodder in a variety-show novel.

Yu Qingling keeps a straight face. "We're doomed."

Yu Qingling is sick of being worked like a beast of burden, so he decides to lie flat on the spot.

Before the father and child appear on the show, viewers say: [I bet Yu Nian's kid is ugly.]

After seeing Yu Qingling, viewers say: [What a beautiful, well-behaved baby! Auntie wants to sniff him!]

On the variety show, the other kids cheer their parents on, trying to help them win the top spot in each task.

But Yu Qingling lies flat with Yu Nian and, hugging a pillow, invites his unlucky young dad to sleep: "Everyone's bound to become a rat eventually, so let's sleep like rats today, Daddy."

Yu Nian: ? My son always wants me to lie flat?

Yu Nian lies flat: Fine by me.

When the kids are asked to do tasks, everyone tries to come in first.

Yu Qingling, however, collapses into his young dad's arms. "Daddy, just pretend I'm dead. I can't do the task."

Yu Nian: Fine by me.

Yu Nian and Yu Qingling are unbelievably laid-back on the show. Their gorgeous attitude of "being alive is fine, being dead is better" makes them go viral, and they're dubbed the capybara father and son.

The kids compare their dads. Among all the "My dad's a celebrity," "My dad's a CEO, he's super rich," and "My mom's a superhero," Yu Qingling's voice rings out: "My big daddy eats poop."

The kids: "!!!"

Yu Qingling's big daddy: "?"

If I say I didn't, will anyone believe me?

The host asks: What kind of person do you want to become when you grow up?

The other kids answer, "A superhero," "A CEO," "A big star," "An athlete."

Yu Qingling: "A little beast."

Host: "...?"

Yu Qingling: "A little animal out there in society."

Yu Qingling's big daddy looks up at the sky: "..."

If Yu Qingling's a little beast, does that make him a big beast?

Yu Qingling twists the knife: "Big Daddy's a bird snatcher."

The CEO, already worth hundreds of billions, decides to turn his life around. He absolutely cannot let his baby grow up to be an office drone! He'll work 996 every day and save money for his baby.

The top student: "Qingqing, study hard and come in first."

Yu Qingling lies there like a lazy fish and pretends to be stupid. "Qingqing's dumb and can't learn. You work hard, Big Brother, and take care of Qingqing when you grow up."

The top student blushes, clenches his fists, and nods vigorously. "I'll work hard. I'll take care of you."

When they grow up, the top student says, "Suffer a little now, and life won't be so hard later."

Yu Qingling covers his little bottom. "I won't suffer, and I won't eat cock either."

The top student's eyes darken. "Baby, we have to come in first."

Yu Qingling: "..."

Coming first in an exam is one thing, but why do we have to come first in bed too?

The baby's romance, childhood friends who get together as adults: an adorable, soothing, very cuddly omega who wants to be supported and has no desire to stop lying flat x a studious, top-ranked alpha with a youthful air.

The parents' romance (BL): A business magnate alpha x a gorgeous, infamous-for-all-the-wrong-reasons capybara beta.

Coming soon, 2: "Little Immortal Makes It Big as an Entertainment Industry Temp [Mysticism]"

[Mysticism + Beloved by All + Gossip + Wish Fulfillment + Face-Slapping]

Lin Mian is the only little immortal in the Heavenly Palace in eight hundred years. The gods all adore him. After he's tossed down to the human world to work, Lin Mian says, "Huh?"

I don't wanna work!

Lin Mian has barely arrived in the human world when a talent scout spots him and tricks him into joining the entertainment industry.

Lin Mian makes his unexpected debut and starts working in entertainment. On set, on variety shows, and in livestreams, he sets up fortune-telling stalls and tells fortunes while gossiping.

On a talent show:

A contestant who can't stand Lin Mian brags, hoping to slap him down in the process. "Please, I'm really busy. I wish I could retire tomorrow. If you can make it happen, I'll offer you as much incense as you want."

The next day, his rival is exposed for tax evasion, banned from the industry, and forced into retirement overnight. The rival is furious. "You... You..."

Lin Mian guiltily looks away. "Just tell me, did you retire or not?"

Netizens: "Now that's someone who cares about results, not after-sales service."

A man in a livestream asks for nine sons and jokes that he wants his own Nine Sons Contest for the Throne. He boasts that if Lin Mian can make his wish come true, he'll offer him incense.

The next day, the man becomes pregnant with nine babies. Nine snakes wriggle around in his belly.

Man: "You... You..."

Lin Mian replies sweetly, "Just tell me, aren't they nine sons? Snakes are earth dragons!"

The man faints. Where did this half-baked mystic come from?

On set, Lin Mian casually reminds the second male lead, "By the way, your sister wants you to burn 108 male models for her. She's exhausted from fishing you out every day. You keep causing trouble up here, and she has to kneel and kowtow in the underworld to rescue you. She's even broken the skin on her forehead."

Second male lead: "!!!"

Second male lead: "I'll burn some for my sister right away. Mianmian, can you burn me down there too?"

Lin Mian: "We can try."

The next second, good news: they manage to burn the second male lead down there. Bad news: they can't bring him back, so all his sister's hard work has gone to waste.

Lin Mian is unapologetic. It worked, didn't it? What more do you want, a bicycle?

On the talent show, everyone sings, dances, and raps, while Lin Mian performs bizarre spirit-medium dances. Nobody believes he can make his debut.

But Lin Mian takes first place by a huge margin and debuts.

The reason? Lin Mian is adored by all the gods in heaven. The gods vote for him and promote him to bring good luck and earn money. The God of Wealth even visits people's dreams to cheer him on and recommend their favorite. Who could say no?

When Lin Mian acts, he invites a ghost to possess him, but accidentally summons the movie star Xie Huaizhou, who is both a human-world superstar and the King of Hell. Once summoned, he refuses to leave.

Xie Huaizhou grips Lin Mian by the waist and wraps his legs around his own. "Mianmian, I don't want to go out."

Lin Mian's ears turn bright red. "N-no, you can't. You're too cold."

Lin Mian's fortune-telling makes him a sensation and a top-tier star. He becomes hugely popular among humans, and a sensation in the underworld too.

Countless ghosts visit their descendants in dreams, asking them to burn Lin Mian merchandise for them.

What's more, Lin Mian and Xie Huaizhou's CP becomes a sensation in both the worlds of yin and yang.

Yang-world fans: "Xie Huaizhou, are you secretly sniffing Mianmian again at night?!"

Underworld fans: "Mianmian has the King of Hell's aura inside him. Is he carrying a little ghost?"

Lin Mian dispels the rumors: "Don't believe rumors or spread them. I won't have a baby."

The CP fans rejoice: He only denied having a baby. He didn't deny that they're together!

A muddleheaded, half-baked little immortal who tells fortunes and gossips x the King of Hell, who follows his love all the way to the human world.

*Plot-focused. Mainly about a muddleheaded little immortal who gossips, tells fortunes, and grants people's wishes.

Theme: Bravely pursue the happiness you want.
