Jiang Wanyu, an animal marriage registrar who could understand animals, had always devoted himself to arranging weddings for them. One day, he died while saving a little animal.

When he woke up again, he had transmigrated into a book, into the body of a cannon-fodder fake young master in a rich-family novel. He was about to watch his scum ex get engaged to the real young master at his own engagement party, then be abandoned by his family, run away, and get hit by a car.

Jiang Wanyu: ...Yikes. Three massive blows in a row.

The next moment, he immediately broke up with the scum.

Except, by accident, he ended up breaking up with the scum's uncle.

Jiang Wanyu: …

He immediately turned around and dumped the furious scum behind him, too.

Seeing how his own actions had delayed the engagement party, Jiang Wanyu waved a hand. No way could he let that happen.

This is my specialty. Leave it to me.

The next moment, he hosted a deeply moving engagement ceremony for the scum and the real young master.

The scum's face went numb.

The real young master couldn't smile anymore.

The crowd watching was in an uproar: Oh wow! He broke up with his ex one second, then hosted his ex and his rival's engagement party the next. What a player.

The original Jiang Wanyu had been a D-list celebrity, with terrible works and countless haters.

After the engagement party fiasco, Jiang Wanyu was dragged onto the trending list again, and everyone was telling him to get out of show business.

Jiang Wanyu: Hate me all you want. If I have to leave the industry, I'll leave.

The next moment, a penalty for breaking his contract struck him like a hammer, and he slunk off to participate in an animal variety show.

During filming, Jiang Wanyu avoided all the other guests, who were trying their hardest to show off, and devoted himself to cuddling fluffy animals.

A Northeast tiger pounced on him, asking him to pet its head.

A grumpy panda cub begged him for a hug.

Birds of every kind fluttered around him, dancing.

As soon as the show aired, it topped multiple trending lists.

The audience was completely won over: Aww! With that face, he's clearly my dream baby. I was blind before. Please don't leave the industry, sweetheart!

Haters: This has to be a bug. I seriously suspect those animals are CGI. Are you telling me he can understand what animals say?

Jiang Wanyu: What if what you said was all true?

Jiang Wanyu became wildly popular, drawing the envy of others.

When people tried to frame him, parrots, cats, and little mice joined forces to help him.

When someone pushed him into the sea at a celebratory banquet, dolphins and sharks fought to carry him back up.

When a famous director threatened to force himself on him, all kinds of animals teamed up to teach the director a lesson.

From then on, an unwritten rule spread through the entertainment industry: You can offend anyone, but don't mess with Jiang Wanyu. He's got animals of every kind backing him up, and you never know what they'll do. It's just unfair.

Some people still wouldn't give up. If they couldn't go after him openly, they could always get the haters to gang up on him online, right? But then...

They called him a fake young master who'd usurped the real one's place, and the ultra-wealthy Jiang family issued a statement: He's ours.

They said he'd been abandoned, but a video came out of the scum begging him to take him back.

They said nobody wanted him, but in an interview, a business magnate laughed helplessly and said: I'm asking for advice online. How do I compete with a pet for attention? I want my wife to look at me more.

Audience: Oh my god, is that Mo Wenshen? Jiang Wanyu married him?

Fans: Wow, sweetheart, you're amazing! You didn't want the scum, so you went and became the scum's uncle's wife. Nicely done.jpg

Everyone in show business was losing it: This guy has way too many buffs. You can't just bully the rest of us like this.

Jiang Wanyu: ...Don't make things up. I didn't. I haven't.

[Bonus Scene]

Jiang Wanyu, who'd set all this off and hadn't appeared in public for a long time, unexpectedly showed up in a video filmed by an ordinary person.

He was holding a wedding ceremony for a pair of little dogs. The scene was warm and peaceful.

Before long, his animal marriage service went viral, too.

Fans: Please tell us where your animal marriage registry is! I want you to register my furry babies' marriage, too.

The haters all switched sides: Stop, my face is already swollen. No more hate. I've wanted to say this for ages: Sweetheart, I love you so much.

P.S. This story focuses heavily on romance, with a light plot that only serves as a backdrop.

The cover art was generously gifted by a talented artist on the forum.

On the first day after transferring to a new school, Shi Yi was drawn to the honor wall in the corridor.

The first row of the wall was filled with photos of the same person.

What caught Shi Yi's attention wasn't how handsome he was, but the motivational quotes beneath each photo.

First photo: Rise ninety thousand miles on the wind.

Second photo: I'll say it again: rise ninety thousand miles on the wind.

Third photo: I'm tired of saying it. There's nothing more to say.

Fourth photo: Forget pretending. I'm peerless, so let's enjoy life while we can~

Eighth photo: Ad space for rent!

Looking at the increasingly outrageous captions, Shi Yi fell silent. In the end, he couldn't help asking the person beside him, "Teacher, which class is that idiot in?"

A lazy voice came from behind him: "That idiot's in Class 19."

Shi Yi turned around and saw a person leaning against the wall, smiling as if he knew something, looking exactly like the guy in the photos.

After being caught talking about him behind his back,

Shi Yi saw Xiao Wu again when he joined Class 19, where Xiao Wu became his deskmate.

The third time he saw Xiao Wu, they were in the same dorm room, with beds right next to each other.

That's when Shi Yi realized they were destined to be mortal enemies.

One day, Shi Yi got drunk.

Xiao Wu pointed at the mirror and coaxed him: "Play rock-paper-scissors with the person inside. If you can't win, then go to sleep like a good boy."

Shi Yi refused to lose and played against himself until the middle of the night.

So, starting the next day, the two became sworn enemies for good.

After every exam, the first row of the honor wall turned into a battlefield where the two fought for the top spots.

Their photos were locked in a constant struggle, one chasing the other, switching places over and over.

The students had given up resisting. They were completely numb.

The two big shots' hobby is pretty nice.

Watching the big shots fight it out is so much fun.

One day, the caption under Xiao Wu's photo on the honor wall changed again.

-Coming next: My ad space is about to be rented out.

The students started gossiping. Something big must be happening, so they rushed to place bets on the forum.

"Figures. He's a big shot. He's turned the honor wall into a press conference."

"I'll bet ten cents that Big Shot Xiao finally beats Big Shot Shi this time."

"I'll bet a pack of spicy snacks that God Shi beats God Xiao."

Then a completely out-of-place post got bumped to the top: "My Fifteenth CP is about to go official."

Then, during the final exams, both students vanished from the top of the rankings, causing an uproar.

The two behind all this were tugging at each other on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

Xiao Wu: "Yi Yi, they say the moon is rounder on the sixteenth than the fifteenth. Look, I've already made the announcement. Will you come rent my ad space and make our Fifteenth CP a reality?"

When the other person didn't answer, Xiao Wu kept chattering: "Yi Yi, Yi Yi!"

After a long while, Shi Yi's ears turned red. He covered Xiao Wu's mouth and said seriously, "Mm. Got it."

*

Later, a photo of Xiao Wu wiping the corner of Shi Yi's mouth crashed the school forum.

Ahhh, enemies-to-lovers really is the best!

My Fifteenth CP is real!

Letting the world know they love each other in the most subtle way!

Wen Xian was the successor to Cangyun Temple. Before taking over, he had to go down the mountain and undergo a period of ascetic training.

He was poor, and exorcised ghosts while working part-time.

One day, a friend who delivered takeout with him recommended a job: moving corpses at a morgue at night, for 1,800 yuan a shift.

His friend asked, "Aren't you scared?"

Wen Xian's eyes lit up. "Scared? There's a job like that?"

Those weren't corpses, they were mute brothers who paid me. Even if one of them sat up, I'd just sing it back to sleep.

Then he successfully landed the job.

On his very first night, a corpse sat up.

The living and the dead stared at each other. Wen Xian began chanting to exorcise it: "Sleep...sleep...my dear brother..."

The corpse curled its lips into a smile and made him fall asleep instead.

When Wen Xian woke from his unconscious state, the corpse was gone.

There was only a note beside him: You sing very well. Don't sing next time.

Wen Xian: ...

The first time Wen Xian tried to catch a ghost in the morgue, Wu Bei, who was pretending to be a corpse, beat him to it. The second time, Wu Bei stole his catch again at a banquet.

The sixth time they ran into each other, Wu Bei teased him: "You never want to work with me."

That bastard was twisting the truth. When had he ever not struck first?

Wen Xian sneered. "Work with a ghost!"

Hearing this, Wu Bei burst out laughing and turned to the evil spirit inside the room. "Hey, he's asking you."

The evil spirit stared in terror: "..." Shakes head frantically.jpg

One day, the old temple master of Cangyun Temple led a group of disciples to a traditional culture exchange held once every four years, where they ran into the Wu family.

The Wu family was a martial arts clan, with deep ties to Cangyun Temple going back generations.

Old temple master: "Xian, come here. Let me introduce you. This is the current head of the Wu family, Wu Bei. He's also the president of the Association for the Investigation of Supernatural Events. By rights, you should call him Senior Brother."

Wu Bei wore a gentle expression and smiled warmly. "Good to meet you, Junior Brother."

Wen Xian gritted his teeth: "..." Damn it, what kind of senior brother keeps stealing his ghosts?

That night, Wu Bei was left standing outside the dilapidated door.

The person outside patiently coaxed him. "Xianxian, I was wrong. I just didn't want you to get tired."
