The Clumsy Bird Gets 'Fat' First
Tags
Summary
As a rookie wedding planner, Xia Xiaoluo thinks her luck is pretty good! Just as she effortlessly landed this big case that everyone envies. At first she thought it was a cushy job, but who knew she'd fall into a bizarre cycle of being messed with. Trying on wedding dresses, writing lyrics, reciting love poems... and even dressing up as the bride to confess to him? Faced with a customer full of tricks, Xia Xiaoluo is clearly falling apart inside, yet she still has to put on a calm smile. However, when she learns that the customer's "torment" has a hidden motive, she completely loses her cool! Hmph, sure enough, what falls from the sky isn't necessarily a pie—more likely a trap. But trapping her won't be so easy! Unless... food is used as bait... And wouldn't you know it, the "hunter" knows this trick well. From then on, this chubby clumsy bird can't escape even with wings...
