Yu Yu is a top-tier professional body double in the industry, with first-rate skills.
Recently, he took on a new job.
His client wanted him to play the deceased, unattainable first love of a rival company's CEO, someone who could do anything except stay alive. The client promised him a fee of 500,000 yuan upon completion.
Yu Yu: The most realistic corporate warfare calls for the dirtiest tactics. Playing with someone's feelings is beyond immoral. Taking this job would cost me years off my life.
Mr. Ren, the client: [Takes out a card] One million.
Yu Yu: [Hesitates] Of course, within the bounds of the law, our job is to help our clients solve their problems. It's just that this is... unethical...
Mr. Ren, the client: [Takes out another card] Five million.
Yu Yu: [Quickly pockets the card] It's my duty to do everything in my power for you. Would you like me to steal the financial reports or the bidding proposal?

After going undercover at the rival CEO's side, Yu Yu had a new problem: Mr. Ren sent him eight messages a day, and the CEO had nearly caught him several times.
After receiving yet another message from Mr. Ren, Yu Yu finally couldn't take it anymore.
[Yu Yu: Mr. Su, could you please keep yourself in check? You're going to get me exposed.]
[Yu Yu: If my identity is exposed, the fee is nonrefundable.]
On the other end of the phone, a certain client, all bark and no bite, angrily tossed his phone aside. He could only curse this money-grubbing little body double for being as dense as a block of wood.

The Drama King Young Master Is Acting Again
Blurb:
Lu Xingqiao transmigrates into an old-fashioned CEO romance novel as a pitiful young man whose family has gone bankrupt and who is sent to a wealthy household to repay their debts.
When he arrives, the original character has only just been taken into the CEO's home under the pretense of being cared for.
How can he get the CEO, the top, to send him away of his own accord?
Lu Xingqiao thinks back to the plot of the book and starts putting on an act.
He smashes teacups, throws tantrums, nitpicks over food and clothes, and orders everyone around. He's the very picture of a spoiled, temperamental young master.
After all that, Lu Xingqiao turns and meets the CEO's gaze.
Come on, get angry. Get angry already.
He looks forward to the thrilling scene of the CEO kicking him out.
But the next moment, the man hands him a cup of hot tea. "I just bought some Wuyi Da Hong Pao. Give it a taste."
Huh?
Isn't this supposed to go differently?
Lu Xingqiao opens his mouth, about to say something, but the hot tea is already at his lips.
"Your lips are so chapped they're peeling. Have a couple of sips before you throw your next tantrum."
Lu Xingqiao: I suspect you're messing with me, but I have no proof.

A friend's company suddenly runs into a crisis, and he entrusts his precious son to Gu Shihan's care.
Gu Shihan reluctantly agrees, though he gets a headache thinking of how the boy always trembles like a rabbit whenever he sees him.
After bringing the boy home, Gu Shihan looks at the spoiled, willful teenager before him and realizes something is off.
The boy smashes a teacup right in front of him and causes trouble around the house time and again. He should be angry, but whenever he meets the boy's teary-eyed, self-righteous, blame-shifting expression, he can't bring himself to scold him.
Gu Shihan furrows his brow. When he turns around, he discovers the boy has run away!
Damn it.
So which bastard started the rumor that the Lu family had gone bankrupt and sent their young master to him to pay off their debts?
