[Career-focused]
After publicly defending her mentor, who had been sentenced to death, Lin Lu became a target for everyone.
People all doubted that she was just an unscrupulous reporter chasing attention. They never expected to see this on camera:
In an unfinished building overgrown with weeds, she braved the filth and plunged into the sewers, dragging out the real culprit behind a string of dismemberment murders. In a slum overseas, she put herself in danger to infiltrate a drug-manufacturing den, escaping through sugarcane fields lashed by a hurricane amid a hail of bullets. At the frontline of an outbreak caused by an unknown virus, she went alone to film infected patients on the verge of death at point-blank range...
Like reeds swaying freely in a raging storm, she possessed a vibrant, resilient vitality. She wasn't a paparazzo who made things up and twisted the truth. She was the uncrowned queen who spoke up for the people.
[Romance-focused]
Lin Lu, a hopeless romantic, didn't get a younger boyfriend until she was twenty-six. He was perfect in every way, except he was far too eager to please and always feared losing her. Like a well-behaved, sensible stray dog, he even hid his sadness from others, never making a sound.
Then one day, while they were giving each other the silent treatment, she opened the front door and found a pair of fluffy ears poking out of a giant gift box.
Following the ears down, she saw a handsome, refined face. Shy, he gazed at her with damp eyes, a hint of emotion glistening in them, and an unusually rosy flush on his cheeks.
Looking further down, she saw a black leather collar around his neck.
Lin Lu's hand trembled as she held the leash. The little bell on the collar chimed softly.
Blushing, her young boyfriend said gently, "I know you like big, fluffy dogs, Lu..."
Maybe it was her imagination, but she thought the dog ears on his head twitched too.
"But I'm selfish. I don't want anything else taking your attention and affection away from me, so..."
He leaned on the edge of the gift box and looked up at her. "Will you let me be your pet, Lu?"
#When the puppy goes quiet, he's definitely up to something#
Female characters are not romantically involved with the protagonist. One-on-one romance. The man has a secret crush. He's top of the class at the Boyfriend Code of Conduct School.
"After I Slipped My Payment QR Code into a Letter to an Unknown Star"
1.
Xu Suicheng had a favorite hobby: nurturing obscure celebrities.
One day, short on cash, she followed an online trend and slipped her payment QR code to the celebrity she supported. To her surprise, a huge sum of money actually arrived.
Unable to resist, Xu Suicheng made a post asking for advice.
[Friends, is there any legal risk with this money? If I don't return it, could he sue me if I switch to another celebrity later...?]
While netizens all condemned her as an "emotional con artist trying to get something for nothing," one comment stood out from the rest:
[Why bring up the hypothetical of "switching to someone else later"? Do you not want to keep supporting him?]
The next second, a message popped up in her WeChat chat window.
"Did I do something wrong? I'll change. Could you please not switch to someone else?"

Staring at the anonymous contact with no name, no moments, and no idea when she'd added him, Xu Suicheng fell into deep thought.
Luckily, he was generous, and kind and considerate by nature. Even after becoming a top-tier star, he still remembered their old bond. When he transferred the money, he even noted that it was a voluntary gift and told her not to feel guilty.
Xu Suicheng: Thanks, but... I'm not feeling guilty. I'm just freaking out!!!
She'd helped countless obscure celebrities grow, but she only did the numbers when she happened to think of it. She often visited sets because she had an annual pass to the film studio, and not using it felt like a waste. Even the handwritten letters... she'd used carbon paper to make over a dozen copies at once, handing them out wherever she went. As for the payment QR code, she just closed her eyes and stuffed it in!
Faced with his invitation to visit him on set, Xu Suicheng steadied herself.
Don't panic. It's just one person. Narrow it down! This is nothing. Keep calm and stay in control...
But when the night was over,
three more transfers from different accounts had appeared in her bank account.

Oh no. Who the hell are all these people?!

After asking after his health, dropping hints, and reminiscing about the past...
Xu Suicheng finally figured out who she was dealing with and went to meet him, head held high.
After chatting happily all afternoon, the young man shyly took out his phone. "We don't have each other's contact info. Want to add me on WeChat?"
Xu Suicheng: ???
Just then, her phone started buzzing nonstop.
The green chat bubbles clung to her like a ghost.
[Are you here? I don't think I can see you. You really do want to switch to someone else, don't you?]
[I got the coffee you bought for the production crew. It wasn't for me, but thank you anyway.]
[Don't mistake me for someone else next time.]
[I'm not him.]
[Now I can see you.]
Theme: No matter how far away or numerous they may be, other people are all connected to me.

Baby is the first book and the writing is great! I like Xiaoyu, a strong and unyielding good girl who knows how to love and is definitely worthy of being loved! The author's stories are full of warmth and real phenomena in today's society. I like them very much!
Ah, this Hong Changfeng is speechless! [Rolling eyes] As soon as the female reporter asked what she looks like, what does a female doctor look like, what does a female lawyer look like, what does a female police officer look like... [Rolling eyes] [Rolling eyes] Add "female" in front of all professions, and a group of people started to pay attention to appearance. It's disgusting.
I was very moved when I read the copy. Good journalists are particularly great. They dare to expose the truth and explore the dark side of society. They use themselves as a shield and their pen as a knife. Thinking back to the female reporters from Henan who went to northern Myanmar to save people a few years ago, it makes people's eyes sore and burst into tears. The power of women is particularly great. Just by reading the copy, I can feel the moving character of the heroine. I hope the text can successfully establish the heroine character 🤩
I turned around so coolly and cried so much that I was so moved.
I really like this image of an independent and sober heroine. She has a eloquent feeling. It's beautiful 🤩
It's beautiful. I really like this kind of sober heroine. It really pokes me.
... This kind of people are a scourge. Parents dote on them and think that having money can solve everything. It's over, you're dumbfounded, I wish you an explosion! [Eye roll]
I feel that the little deer's eyes are the most beautiful, they are sparkling and watery. Our heroine Lin Lu's eyes must also look like the little deer's.
So the debtor is going to have a brother-sister relationship?
It's really good. I came across this book's tweet on xhs before. I searched it and kept this book in my recent reading list. I watched it this afternoon and was hooked immediately. The plot has a strong sense of immersion. When the male and female protagonists are in crisis, my heart twitches. The heroine is really brave, she keeps working hard for the truth. The male protagonist is a loyal big dog with a great sense of service. Looks good, looks good, spread flowers 💪 [spread flowers]
