The Little Sea Otter Gets Rich Through Livestreaming

[My new novel, The Little Mermaid Has No Bad Intentions (Adorable Pet), is now serializing. Please add it to your reading list *^_^*] [Pre-release: The Cannon Fodder Bottom Smashes His Saintly Halo. Synopsis at the end. Rolling around cutely and begging you to add it to your reading list (*￣m￣)]

Xin Li is a little sea otter with the power to purify. He dislikes his kind's mating habits and their polygamous system, so when he reaches the age to find a mate, he secretly goes ashore.

Living in the human world takes money. He doesn't want to become a homeless otter, or be deported by the Exorcist Association, so with the association's help, he earns money by being cute at a zoo. But his salary isn't enough to buy the high-quality fresh sea urchins he loves, so he takes up a side job too.

First, he uses his purifying abilities to clean people's homes. He's lucky: when he first starts taking jobs, he gets a big client who offers ten times the market rate, but has plenty of demands. He has to disinfect before entering, never meet the client, wear shoe covers and gloves at all times, and stop taking jobs from anyone else... For the money, Xin Li puts up with it.

On top of that, the plush-toy-making livestream he started on a whim gradually takes off. His growing income gives him confidence. After finally buying a big house with a pool and eating his fill of sea urchins, Xin Li quits his other jobs and focuses on making plush toys.

Not long after, Xin Li gets an order for a sea otter plush. The client keeps making demands: the plush has to swim, talk, and, better yet, be able to carry an adult man.

Xin Li: Are you messing with me?

He thinks the client is playing a prank, so he refunds the money and blocks them.

Later, Xin Li attends a banquet after receiving an invitation from the platform, where he meets the CEO of a global food company. The man looks more and more familiar, but before Xin Li can remember who he is, the CEO, rumored to have severe mysophobia, grabs his hand. "Why won't you make me a sea otter?"

·

Chu Jingyu has severe mysophobia and never lets anyone into his home. But the house is so big that cleaning it himself is too much work, so he grits his teeth and hires a cleaner.

While looking through the applications, he inexplicably hires a young man with a sea otter avatar. After that, every day he avoids running into him as if someone were chasing him.

One day, he slips, hits his head, and falls into the pool. In a daze, he sees a fluffy creature drag him to shore. Before long, the young man quits.

Suspecting he had been dreaming, Chu Jingyu checks the security footage, only to be shocked to discover that whenever he isn't home, a little sea otter swims in his pool...

Note: 1. A money-loving, straightforward little sea otter with purifying powers x a human top with severe mysophobia who falls for him on his own. 1v1, happy ending.

2. A story about little sable brothers, set in the same world. The other couple may appear, but they won't take over the story.

3. The characters are not based on real people.

Pre-release: The Cannon Fodder Bottom Smashes His Saintly Halo

Si Shi is twenty years old before he learns that he is just a cannon-fodder character in a book, complete with a saintly halo:

He was kidnapped at birth. His adoptive parents treated him as a free nanny to care for his younger brother, who treated him like an ATM. At school, he was a target for bullying. At work, he was everyone's tireless errand boy. Every boyfriend he dated cheated on him, either using him as a substitute or as a shield...

And in every case, he chose to forgive them.

Si Shi was supposed to live out his entire life as a saint, just as the story dictated, becoming the ultimate embodiment of saintliness and shining his holy light on all those who abandoned, betrayed, and deceived him. He could put up with it, but the System couldn't.

So Si Shi gets a chance to start over. As long as he completes the System's missions to be a bad person, he can escape his saintly role and become a real person.

At first:

System: While you're cooking porridge for him with a high fever, he's off enjoying himself in someone else's arms! What should you do?

Si Shi: I'll let the porridge cool down so it's ready for him.

System: ...

System: You kindly walk him downstairs, but he deliberately falls to frame you! What should you do?

Si Shi: Help him up and ask if he's hurt.

System: ...

System: He, he, he even ate from the same ice cream as your boyfriend!

Si Shi: He can have mine too.

System: You're hopeless!

Later:

Scumbag One: You're just someone I use to fob off my parents!

Si Shi: They're my parents now.

Scumbag One: What?!

Si Shi: You were adopted.

Scumbag Two: I only see someone else when I look at you.

Si Shi: Same here.

Scumbag Three: Why did you push him?!

Si Shi kicks the scumbag over: I didn't just push him, I'm kicking you too.

Everyone: Why are you two picking on him?

Si Shi asks the System: Is this good enough?

System: You're doing fine, but everyone still thinks you're a good person.

As he progresses through the missions, Si Shi gradually learns the skills needed to be a "bad person," but he also discovers that someone seems to keep sabotaging his tasks. After repeatedly testing his theory, he finally catches the person who keeps changing identities to interfere with him.

Si Shi: Don't follow me. I can do anything. I'm not a good person!

The other person replies: What a coincidence. Neither am I.

Theme: Work hard toward your goals!
