Yan Ting is flourishing: giving rousing speeches to a litter of piglets,

opening a tavern, doing charity work, running a transport business, and raising military funds in ancient times...

Then, just as everything is going well, Chu Baitu suddenly turns up and kicks him,

furiously demanding to know how he could promote such corrupt practices!

What corrupt practices?

Yan Ting immediately flops onto the ground and starts pretending to be injured, secretly scraping his nails against the ground:

You damn dog, you framed me. You've got no shame!

A sudden gust of wind seems to whisper right by Chu Baitu's ear: I want you dead.

The cold, formidable general guarding the frontier watches the "little liar" lying on the ground groaning and explains to the people nearby:

No, that's impossible. He's really not my elder!

And I'm not his great-nephew, either.

Yan Ting smiles:

I'm not you, and Zhuangzi isn't you.

Confucius isn't you either, but you're definitely an unfilial son.

After kicking someone, Chu Baitu comes over with a bowl of medicine and impatiently asks:

Hey, where am I supposed to put this bowl?

Yan Ting: Come on, put it on my head. Put it all on my head.

Your nephew and my nephew don't seem to be the same kind of nephew. ┓(.)┏

Yan Ting: This unfilial son! If he ran into a Cantonese person, he'd have been made into kimchi ages ago!

Chu Baitu: Have I been too gentle with you? Is that why you don't know how to be afraid?

(Content warning: They are not related by blood.)

Coming soon: "After Losing My Memory, I Mistook My Nemesis for a Backup Lover," a sweet entertainment-industry romance

Also known as "I Suddenly Regained My Memories on My Wedding Day"

Gu Yu is a newly popular young actor. With a little more effort, he could become a top-tier star at any moment.

But his climb to the top has been especially difficult,

because he has a rival, someone he just can't beat or shake off.

-

Xiao Baiye lives by the principle that if he can't crush you, he'll annoy you to death. He loves picking fights with Gu Yu.

Not for any particular reason. He just can't stand seeing him prance around on TV.

Because he has a memory, one that is neither pleasant nor easy to forget.

-

One day, after years as rivals, Gu Yu calls him. Xiao Baiye assumes Gu Yu is about to curse him out for stealing his Best Newcomer award, but instead, the other man says softly, "Congratulations. Um... are you free right now?"

"What are you trying to do?"

Gu Yu: "...Could you bring me a pair of underwear?"

Xiao Baiye hangs up. Is this some new kind of insult?

After being hung up on, Gu Yu lies soaked beside a fishpond and stares at the contact name "Puppy" in his notes, lost in thought.

Is he a lovesick puppy or a paparazzo...?

Then, looking at Xiao Baiye arriving with a pair of flower-print underwear,

he arrives at his answer:

A lovesick puppy.

The first time Gu Yu orders him around, Xiao Baiye thinks: Let's see what tricks you're up to.

The hundredth time Gu Yu orders him around, Xiao Baiye thinks: I'm not doing business at a loss!

Gu Yu regains his memories before the wedding. Xiao Baiye: Trying to run? Not a chance!

Coming soon, story two: "My Nemesis Finally Had His Estate Confiscated"

You practice calligraphy, he bangs a gong.

You build a wall, he tears out the bricks!

You ride a horse, he digs a pit.

You eat candy, he says it's salty!

Qi Zhan, riding through the streets on horseback, is going to hate Xie Huaishan to death!

The man opposes him in everything!

Then one day, his drinking buddies tell him: Xie Huaishan's estate has been confiscated!

Then we have to hurry over and offer him "help" while he's down!

Let this young master see who this poor, helpless little thing is.

His shady friends point at Xie Huaishan and egg him on: Buy him! Buy him! Buy him!

Fine! I'll show him who's boss!

In a fit of enthusiasm, Qi Zhan really does buy the man and take him home, intending to teach Xie Huaishan a lesson.

The next day, Qi Zhan's eyes are swollen like peaches, and he insists that Xie Huaishan be kicked out!

Xie Huaishan, full and content: I'm not leaving. I'm not leaving. I'm just not leaving.

Qi Zhan: Damn you!

Xie Huaishan, you liar,

you've done me so wrong!
