I Was a Slacker, but Became the Entertainment Industry's Workaholic

Eighteenth-tier celebrity bottom x "tears-at-the-drop-of-a-hat" actor top In an age when every industry was fiercely competitive, Ye Shi only wanted to be a lazy couch potato. By pure chance, he stumbled into show business. He said he wasn't good at this or that, but his boss told him all he needed was a good face. He also said he'd never had any professional training. His boss waved a hand. "The way you put it, you'd think actors these days actually got serious training. Our industry is all about taking it easy." Ye Shi finally relaxed, ready to become an inconspicuous nobody in the entertainment industry. But he never imagined that the entertainment industry's laid-back attitude could reach such incredible heights. "All I do is show up on time and leave on time, take care of my figure and skin, attend professional training classes voluntarily, avoid messy relationships, and obey the law. Does that really count as overworking?" "I memorize my lines, study the script carefully, don't add or change scenes on a whim, and don't take random days off... Aren't those just the basic professional standards for actors?" "You're saying I'm even more intense than the award-winning actor Xia Wennian? No way! That's ridiculous! Xia Wennian was already the top student and a legendary grind when he tutored me back in school. How could I possibly outwork him?" * The biggest source of embarrassment in Ye Shi's life was making Xia Wennian, who tutored him, cry on multiple occasions. They studied every day, and every day Xia Wennian cried. As soon as Ye Shi got one subject down, he would fall behind in another. But the online crowd couldn't believe that the untouchable Xia Wennian would shed tears over a mere Ye Shi. That is, until someone dug up a video of them together in high school. In the video, young actor Xia was hunched over his desk, crying pitifully, while Ye Shi anxiously circled around him: "D-Don't cry. I really have memorized all the texts. I'm not lying to you." "Then recite 'Ode to the Epang Palace' for me right now!" Ye Shi scratched his head awkwardly. "I haven't quite learned that one yet..." Xia Wennian burst into even louder tears. A sweet little story, not too long~ Updates aren't on a fixed schedule, but there will always be an update within 24 hours. Trust me. * Coming soon: "Let's Pretend to Be B Together" Tong Tingnan is a virtual streamer with a million followers on a video site, a top-tier internet personality with an ultra-masculine, magnetic deep voice. He's famous for his dedication to his work and for designing his own handsome avatar. But only a tiny handful of people know that he's actually an omega. What's more, he's a disabled omega whose secondary gender differentiation didn't go smoothly. Unfortunately, one of the few people who knows is his childhood friend and hapless best bro, the kind of friend who used to kick him in the butt growing up. Even worse, that bro is now his landlord. Ji Mu is a popular comic artist, and also an "alpha" whose secondary gender differentiation failed. In reality, he's no different from a beta anymore. As befitting a pair of hapless bros, they're both a mess. So they decide to join forces and pretend to be B's. "You pretend to be a B, I'll pretend to be a B. From now on, we're a pair of B's, otherwise known as the Handsome B-Men." Theme: Live positively and face life with optimism
