Paws, Furs, and Other Scams

Paws, Furs, and Other Scams

Travis and Carlton are two average guys trying to make it big—except they’re terrible at everything. When a random idea to start a dog-walking business falls into their laps, they realize they’ve found their true calling: scamming their way to success. At first, they just fake it till they make it—offering "premium dog services" they know nothing about, from overpriced spa treatments to fake dog yoga. But as their business grows, so does their web of lies, and soon they’re pretending to be everything from pet psychic consultants to high-end dog trainers. Each scam is more ridiculous than the last, but somehow they manage to convince clients that they’re experts. Their latest adventure? A secret underground dog fashion show with elite canine influencers, where the stakes are higher than a poodle’s coiffed hair. But things quickly spiral out of control when their lies get tangled up with actual dangerous (and even illegal) schemes—dog food recalls, fake adoption agencies, and a money-laundering operation disguised as a pet fashion line. Travis and Carlton find themselves knee-deep in scams, misfit pets, and hilarious situations where the only thing they’re truly good at is getting out of sticky situations… just in time for their next big (and absurd) con. "Paws, Furs, and Other Scams" is a wild, laugh-out-loud journey through a world of low-level cons, bad decisions, and two friends who will do anything for a quick buck—even if it means fooling the entire city one scam at a time.

A '70s Flash Marriage: Raising Cubs, Making Millions

Fu Xiaoxiao transmigrates into a book and immediately faces the crisis of being sent to the countryside. As the unloved middle child, her younger sister is the one meant to go — but her mother transfers her job to the sister instead. A disaster of a start. To avoid being sent away, she has to marry within seven days. She meets a few ordinary men and decides she'd rather go to the countryside. Then she runs into a neighbor who's also looking for a spouse — and his conditions are surprisingly good. A dowry of three hundred? Bicycles and a radio? Just take care of the kids, and separate rooms are fine? The others may pass, but she won't. Every day is a battle of wits with the two kids. Life is eventful, she gets a salary every month, and the boss is never home. Absolutely perfect. Except... wasn't this big shot supposed to be infertile? Then why does he keep strutting around naked in front of her? She has professional ethics. She won't be seduced by a good body. Hmph. Men only slow down her sword swing. Lu Feng grits his teeth at Fu Xiaoxiao, who remains completely unmoved by his countless attempts to seduce her, and traps her in his arms. "Boss, let's talk this through. I know forty a month is a bit much — how about... five less?" Trapped in his embrace, Fu Xiaoxiao thinks he's unhappy with her high salary and starts bargaining. "I'm giving myself to you for free." Lu Feng grinds out through clenched teeth. This woman has no heart. "...Can I say no?" Fu Xiaoxiao swallows, staring at the washboard abs so close. "Such a good deal — are you sure you don't want it?" Lu Feng squints, tempting her. "Fine." A fool turns down a bargain.

Recalling her original ending of being humiliated and dying a tragic death, Ruan Fu decisively decided to take a piece of the pie from the female lead. Thus, not only did she snatch away her men, but she also played innocent, making the top-tier males of the Beast World willingly become her protectors. However, Ruan Fu, who firmly believed in having multiple options and paths, never expected that by just crooking her finger, they would all swarm towards her. Seeing this, Ruan Fu decided that of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, fleeing was the best option, leaving them behind in disarray on the battlefield of male rivalry. ——Disaster Skit—— On the day of Ruan Fu's wedding to the cold and gloomy snake-man, a large group of Beastmen from other clans suddenly appeared in Snake Valley. The aloof and abstinent Dragon Clan Clan Leader blocked the front of the hall, "Fufu, let's go to that hot spring you said you wanted to soak in last night." The domineering Tiger Clan leader, bursting with raw tension, tightly gripped her hand, "A fu, I will not allow you to marry him." The aloof and tsundere cat-eared youth knelt before her: "Fufu, don't you want to touch my cat ears again?" The rational and cunning Fox Clan Fate held up her hair ribbon, "A fu, you left this at my place." The gentle, husband-like Rabbit Clan Shaman watched her tenderly: "A fu, I missed you." ... In response, the one and only legal Beast Husband declared, "What does my wedding have to do with any of you? Get the hell out." But unexpectedly, the younger brother he had always doted on cut in front of him, "Brother, actually, the one who isn't loved is the real third wheel..."
