"We're an invincible team, as I'm sure everyone knows. Whether it's my fiery-red rabbit with its ancient bloodline, Mr. Situ's spirit beast that wields a Sky-Piercer Halberd, or Xiao Lian's bewitching Cold Moon Fox, we're the strongest beast tamers in nearly a century." Tang Luo sat elegantly opposite the host, wearing a picture-perfect smile as he occasionally stroked his rabbit pet's fur.
Host: I know you're amazing, but could you hold off on bragging for a second? You've said everything already. What am I supposed to ask?
Host: "You just called contestant Jiang Lian Xiao Lian, and contestant Situ Kou Mr. Situ. Does that mean you're closer to Jiang Lian? In the photos paparazzi took of the three of you going out after the competition, you always keep twenty centimeters away from Mr. Situ. May I ask why? Is Mr. Situ really as cold and indifferent as the rumors say?"
Tang Luo's hand froze mid-stroke. What the hell, asking all those questions at once was bad enough, but every single one was a death trap! Why weren't they close? Could you be close to your ex, especially one you dumped? Why keep twenty centimeters away? That lunatic Situ Kou had a fear of close contact, damn it! Was he really cold and indifferent? Yes, yes, he was freezing in bed too, like some kind of fake human!
Tang Luo maintained his polite smile, then logged into the game forum in his mind and frantically asked for help: [How should I answer when someone who doesn't know the situation asks why my ex and I aren't on good terms?]
[Forum loading]
[I'm dying. Even the Forever Single Guy is troubled by love now?]
[Just come clean. Liking Situ isn't embarrassing, not embarrassing at all. (Dog head) (Dog head) (Hehe)]
[Stick with Situ and you'll go hungry three meals a day. We broke up because he never fed me enough, and since we broke up, we have to keep our boundaries.]
Tang Luo closed his eyes and let his feelings take over, firing off a string of replies.
After the interview, Tang Luo saw a familiar figure at home. Before he could close the door, which was still slightly ajar, he was pulled into the man's arms.
"I'm a fake human?"
"I'm cold and icy?"
"I have a fear of close contact?"
The man tightened an arm around his waist, warm breath brushing Tang Luo's ear. His voice was teasing and intimate. "Then what are we doing right now? Want me to show them? Hmm?"
Tang Luo: Don't say that! I'll get banned! I'll get banned!

After unlucky Tang Luo transmigrated into a beast-taming world and committed a whole host of crimes right from the start, including robbery, illegal distribution, and obstructing city management, his System finally showed up.
Tang Luo raged helplessly: Come any later and I would've been done for!
The System played dumb: I know you're in a hurry, but don't panic just yet! As compensation, I'll provide you with all sorts of information and connect you to the player forum, so you can fully understand this world and recruit top-tier teammates. Er, not recruit, make friends with top-tier teammates, and shoot straight to the top!
Master, just give your orders to Daji~
Tang Luo: Are you sure you're a legitimate System?
