Wildfire in Daylight

1.

Between Lu Fengtan and Cheng Zhou was an affair that defied definition.

When Cheng Zhou found Lu Fengtan beside a dumpster in a back alley, Lu was homeless and covered in injuries, so Cheng took him in. But one day, Lu Fengtan left without a word. The bird he had taken in eventually flew away.

Seven years later, Lu Fengtan had become the dazzling Mr. Lu, the center of attention beneath the spotlights, while Cheng Zhou was just an unremarkable chef.

Their reunion was like dry tinder meeting a flame.

Cheng Zhou's old heart caught fire, and Lu Fengtan's long-dormant heart came alive.

2.

Lu Fengtan handed Cheng Zhou an agreement. "Sign it. If you want to be mine, you have to be my dog first. Have you thought it through?"

He thought Cheng Zhou was entirely under his control.

At a lavish party, Lu Fengtan deliberately made a spectacle of him, throwing his shoe into the pool in full view of everyone.

With his chin raised, he ordered him like a dog: "Go fetch it."

Without hesitation, Cheng Zhou jumped into the water and climbed out soaked from head to toe.

He walked up to Lu Fengtan and dropped to one knee.

His wet hand, cool and slick with moisture, closed around Lu Fengtan's ankle.

Lu Fengtan tried to pull away, but it was too late.

Cheng Zhou looked up. "The floor is cold."

Later, Cheng Zhou gripped his waist and asked, "Who's the dog?"

Lu Fengtan had been wrong. This wasn't a dog at all, but a hungry wolf.

Lu Fengtan's eyes reddened. "I am. I'm the dog, all right?"

This is the story of a beautiful little madman provoking a man he should never have messed with. Regrets? Too late.

A healing, everyone-loves-him story about a young master from the Republican Era bringing his irresistible charm to a variety show for kids~

Ji Yeqiu was a pampered young master from the Republican Era, the apple of his entire family's eye.

After waking up, he found himself in a novel as Ji Qiuqiu, the kid from the variety show's comparison group, the awkward little brat viewers loved to hate, there to make other people's kids look good.

Before the show even began, viewers were already mocking him:

[Why is Ji Qiuqiu always crying? Can they just cut all his scenes?]

[No wonder he's Ji Yusheng's kid. Just as unlikeable as Ji Yu, that copycat.]

Ji Yu was a minor character in a novel who ran away while pregnant. After an accidental hookup with a mysterious tycoon, he panicked and fled, never expecting to give birth to Ji Qiuqiu, a shy, withdrawn child. That might sound a little sad, but to Ji Yeqiu...

It was wonderful! Please, just let him be by himself.

In his old world, his family had doted on him. His father was the richest man in the country, his mother a top celebrity, his older brother a medical prodigy, and his older sister a business genius. Because of his weak heart, he could only stay home under his family's protection, living the happy life of a lazy fish and rarely interacting with the outside world.

Now, all of a sudden, he was at a show filming site. He was overwhelmed too. Help, there are so many people here!

Rather than talking to people, Ji Yeqiu preferred chatting with little animals.

Ji Yeqiu had dreamed of becoming a veterinarian since he was little, so he could spend every day with animals. When the other kids on the show wouldn't play with him, he talked to the animals instead.

In the cameraman's footage, Qiuqiu reached out his soft little hand to pet a puppy. The barking pup quieted down, nuzzling its fluffy little head into Qiuqiu's arms. A chubby little human toddler with short arms and legs, holding a fluffy puppy and saying, "Woof woof, hug": the cameraman's heart melted! Who could resist scooping up and cuddling such an adorable kid?

From then on, wherever Ji Qiuqiu went, a whole crowd of animal babies followed him. The sight of the exquisitely cute little dumpling wobbling along on his own while leading a pack of little animals was enough to melt anyone's heart.

Aww, human babies really are the cutest.

The comments came back to slap everyone in the face, bursting with excitement: [Isn't this the #RunawayDisneyPrince#?]

[How can there be a human baby as cute as Qiuqiu? Darn it, I want another kid now.]

[Little Qiuqiu, come get a hug from your big sis. Waaaaah, why won't the others play with him? I see my childhood self, who never knew how to fit in.]

The other kids soon warmed up to Qiuqiu. The daughter of a genius director brought him a bottle of warm milk, and the young master from the actor's family followed him around. He wanted to be friends with Qiuqiu too.

Later, a proud young master came over. This icy little heir to a wealthy family had never approached another child first. Every kid who tried to get close or cozy up to him was scared off by his cold, distant manner.

But the viewers saw him crouching under a tree beside Ji Qiuqiu, asking, "Can I pet your puppy?"

Qiuqiu looked at him, his delicate little face breaking into a smile. "Sure."

Comments: [Aaaah! Qiuqiu really does look like a soft, pale snowball. What kind of angel baby has descended to earth?]

That year, Ji Qiuqiu became an overnight sensation. Advertising offers poured in, and as soon as one business deal was turned down, another came along. Famous directors personally asked for him to star in their latest works. From then on, Qiuqiu lifted his little dumpling face, and a tear in his eyes rolled down in a breathtaking shot that went down in film history, breaking the hearts of countless viewers.

Wherever he went, his big sisters screamed: Qiuqiu, give us a kiss!

That year, the whole internet wanted to know who Ji Qiuqiu's mysterious father was.

But, uh, sorry, Ji Qiuqiu didn't know either. He was looking for his father too. But he seemed to have discovered something rather incredible. Hmm... quite a few people wanted to be Qiuqiu's father.

Qiuqiu put his little fists in front of Ji Yu. "No, no! Don't you dare try to steal my Papa Ji Yu. I'm not lowering my standards for you! My father has to be the most amazing person in the world!"

Bonus scene:

A top tycoon watched Ji Qiuqiu and Ji Yu on the variety show. His secretary cautiously remarked, "Mr. Lu, doesn't that child look a little like you...?"

"Like me? What are you talking about?" His wife and son had ended up on television!

The tycoon panicked, bought the show's exclusive sponsorship rights in record time, and rushed straight to the production crew.

Enough talk. He had a wife and child to win back.

The most amazing person in the world, did you hear that? Did you hear? His son was calling for him!
