Fang Xi saw them to the door and sincerely said, “Thank you, Mr. Ye.”

After a moment’s thought, Ye Kun replied, “Call me Ye Kun, and I’ll call you

Fang Xi. It’s easier that way.”

Fang Xi nodded with a smile and agreed, “Alright. Goodbye, Ye Kun. Bye-bye,

Tuan Tuan.”

“Woof!” Tuan Tuan barked and wriggled in Ye Kun’s arms. Fang Xi and Ye Kun smiled at each other before they returned to their respective homes and closed their doors.

The next morning, the doorbell woke Fang Xi up. Thinking that it was Yun Nan, who had forgotten her keys again, she opened the door in her pajamas and complained, “You do know you can use the key code if you don’t have the keys, right? I need my beauty sleep, so please don’t disturb—”

“Woof!” She came face to face with Tuan Tuan. Ye Kun lifted the puppy up and quickly fired off his request when Fang Xi appeared, “Fang Xi, please help me take care of Tuan Tuan for three days. I have to get to the airport right NOW! It’s an emergency! I don’t have any reliable friends I can trust to take care of Tuan Tuan aside from you, so I can only leave him with you. Please and thank you! These are my contact number and my apartment’s key code. Feel free to head in and get anything you need. Thank you, bye!”

Ye Kun stuffed Tuan Tuan and a Post-it note into Fang Xi’s hands. He moved like a whirlwind; by the time he had finished speaking, he’d already entered the elevator.

Fang Xi stood flummoxed at her door, sporting a messy bedhead and pajamas while holding a dog in her arms and a light blue Post-it note clutched in one hand.

“Woof, woof, woof!” The small creature in her arms was dissatisfied with the beauty’s dazed inattention and decided to remind her of its presence.

Fang Xi looked down at Tuan Tuan. She brought the puppy into her apartment and closed the door. She then stuck the post-it note on the door and asked the canine, “Is your dad usually this impetuous? What if I’m a dog dealer who would sell you off?”

“Woof!” Tuan Tuan looked up at her innocently, and Fang Xi felt exasperated.

Fang Xi arrived at the studio with a luxurious and comfortable-looking dog crate. Xiao Kang—the cameraman walking towards them—didn’t fail to notice the expensive carrier and exclaimed, “Fang Xi, your dog must be so happy. I want to be your dog too! Where do I sign up?”

Fang Xi kicked him. “I think you should aim higher—a panda, at least. A national first-class protected animal would get more than just a dog crate.”

Xiao Kang grinned as he played with the puppy. Tuan Tuan bared his teeth at him from within the crate and barked, “Woof!”

“My, my, what a fierce little puppy you are!” Xiao Kang chuckled. Fang Xi was a little puzzled; this was the first time she had seen Tuan Tuan behave so aggressively. She was a little worried but had work to do, so she put the matter aside and headed to Yun Nan’s office with her dog crate.

When she got to Yun Nan’s office, Yun Nan was surprised. “Where did the puppy come from?” she asked.

“Someone asked me to look after him for a few days. I was worried about leaving him alone at home, so I brought him with me,” Fang Xi succinctly explained as she felt it was too troublesome to tell the whole story.

Yun Nan thought nothing of it; she knew Fang Xi had always liked small animals. She extended her hand and greeted Tuan Tuan, “Hi, hello there!” “His name is Tuan Tuan, ” Fang Xi informed her.

“Oh, okay. Hello, Tuan Tuan!” Yun Nan said, and Tuan Tuan returned her greeting with an adorable “Woof!”

Fang Xi laughed. “This little fellow is a bit selective. Maybe his owner was right—Tuan Tuan does like beautiful women.” She then took a closer look at Yun Nan. She spotted her tired face and chastised, “Don’t tell me you were up all night?”

Yun Nan smiled and told her, “All the preparations are done. You can go and check them out yourself. We’ll start filming at your command. By the way, how’s your family? How’s your mother doing?”

Fang Xi shrugged. “Same old, same old. My mother’s health isn’t any worse than mine. She tricked me home because she wanted to introduce a boyfriend to me. It’s the same thing with my father. Both of them are urging me to get married, and they’ve each prepared a team of young and talented men for me to go on blind dates with, so I escaped and came back.”

Yun Nan laughed and patted her shoulder. “No one can resist your charms, Fang Xi.” Fang Xi’s parents had divorced, and they both remarried and formed new families. Fang Xi had several half-brothers and half-sisters. However, she had no home despite her large family. That was Fang Xi’s deepest pain, and if she didn’t mention it, Yun Nan wouldn’t bring it up.

“Yun Nan! Yun Nan, the takeout your husband ordered for us has arrived! Come have a look!” Xiao Kang shouted in surprise.

“Your husband?” Fang Xi repeated and frowned. Yun Nan told Fang Xi about Shi Nian’s visit to the studio as they walked out.

Fang Xi’s frown deepened, and she asked, “What does he want from you?”

Yun Nan reassured her, “Nothing. Our marriage contract stipulates we have to pretend we’re happily married for five years, so it’s just as well. We have to be convincing, after all.”

“Aren’t you worried he’ll fall in love with you?” Fang Xi questioned.

Yun Nan laughed as she answered, “I’m not as worried about that as I am about whether your two teams of young and talented men will come all the way here to see you.”

Yun Nan noticed Fang Xi staring at her and quickly assured her, “Don’t worry, Fang Xi, he won’t. I looked into him before I collaborated with him. The guy has no interest in women.”

Fang Xi’s eyes widened. “So he’s interested in men? Same-sex marriage?”

Yun Nan sighed. “No, what I mean is, the guy has no interest in relationships.. He’s an emotionless workaholic! Do you think I would dare to make such a move otherwise? I’m not one to court disaster!”
