Su Ning suddenly opened his eyes and found himself riding a modified bicycle through a bustling street.

He subconsciously touched his pocket, wanting to take out his phone from his storage space to check the time.

But then I heard the system's cold, mechanical voice echo in my mind:
[WARNING! You are prohibited from using items from the spatial world during this journey. You may only bring and retrieve personal clothing.]

Task requirement: Become a qualified male nanny.

The level of completion will determine the level of reward or penalty that follows.

"Damn it!" Su Ning slammed on the brakes, the tires leaving a black mark on the ground.

Then he looked around and realized that he was in the world of the TV series "I Love My Male Nanny".

Unbeknownst to her, she had already taken over the identity of the male protagonist, Fang Yuan.

"System, are you fucking kidding me? You actually thought I'd be a nanny serving other people? You have to give me such a big surprise right from the start?"

Despite his complaints, Suning resigned himself to his fate and started pedaling his bicycle.

He recalled that in the original drama, the Chinese side solicited housekeeping services by posting small advertisements, but now he doesn't even have the money to print those advertisements.

Just as Su Ning was worrying, a young woman wearing sunglasses on the roadside caught his attention.

"Isn't that elegant writing?" Su Ning couldn't help but narrow her eyes.

Looking at the woman who hired Fang Yuan to play the fake father in the original drama.

At this moment, Gao Yawen was standing at the entrance of the coffee shop, seemingly waiting for someone.

Su Ning didn't approach her to talk, but continued riding forward, looking for job opportunities, unaware that Gao Yawen was watching him closely.

After turning two blocks, Suning saw a handwritten notice in front of a milk tea shop: "Seeking agent breakup specialists, compensation negotiable."

Su Ning raised an eyebrow and dialed the number above.

"Hello! I see you need a breakup service?"

A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Yes! My ex-boyfriend is too clingy. I definitely can't break up with him if I go and talk to him myself."

Can you mimic my tone and explain it to him clearly?

“I’m good at this,” Su Ning replied confidently.

Half an hour later, he met his client on a park bench; she was a very stylish young woman.

But in Suning's eyes, they were really very ordinary, and he didn't know how there could be so many spoiled girls.

“His name is Li Ming, and he works at a beauty salon nearby.” The girl handed Su Ning a note. “This is what I want to say to him. Just read it aloud. He’s a bit effeminate, but he won’t lay a hand on you.”

"What if he misunderstands and thinks I'm a third party?"

"No way?"

"Girl, aren't you feeling guilty yourself?"

"Okay! I'll add more money."

"You also need to pay in advance."

"No problem! But you have to complete the task for me, otherwise I definitely won't let you off the hook."

"Don't worry! I'm a professional at breaking up, and besides, the other person is a sissy."

"..."

At this moment, Su Ning nodded confidently and found the beauty salon according to the address provided by the girl.

As I pushed open the door, a young man with foundation and eyeliner greeted me.

Su Ning was almost disgusted at first glance; she simply couldn't accept a man wearing makeup.

Women who wear makeup and act all effeminate are a bunch of useless men without any manly qualities.

"Hello, do you have an appointment?"

Su Ning cleared her throat: "You must be Li Ming? I'm here on Miss Wang's behalf."

The man's expression immediately changed: "Where is she? Why doesn't she come herself?"

"Miss Wang asked me to tell you..." Su Ning read from the note, "We're incompatible. I'm not interested in anything you like, and staying together will only torture us..."

"Wait!" Li Ming suddenly raised his voice. "What does this mean? Did she bring a man to break up with me?"

His gaze swept over Su Ning, "Oh, I see! You're the new lover, the other woman, aren't you?"

Su Ning quickly waved her hand: "You misunderstood, I just..."

"Third party! Shameless!" Li Ming grabbed a comb from the counter and threw it at Su Ning.

Su Ning easily dodged the attack with a graceful turn, and then launched a flurry of punches at Li Ming.

Although they were all empty-handed, the force of the punches still frightened Li Ming quite a bit.

"Sissy, believe me or not I'll smash your head in."

"Waaaaah... You jerk! How dare you bully me..."

"I'm sorry..."

At this moment, Su Ning was so disgusted by the other party that she immediately turned around and fled the beauty salon.

After fleeing the scene on her bike, Su Ning, panting, sent a text message to her client: "Mission accomplished, but your ex-boyfriend is convinced I'm the other woman. Transfer the final payment as soon as possible! I'm really disgusted this time."

"Handsome, how about I treat you to a drink tonight?"

"Forget it! Your ex-boyfriend has too much yin energy, I need to go back and calm down by myself."

"..."

With a "ding-dong" sound, the girl faithfully transferred the final payment.

……

As darkness fell, Su Ning dragged his weary body back to the cinema run by Tao Jun.

This cramped space in the basement serves as both his workplace and residence; he is currently living in the storage room of Tao Jun and his wife.

"Brother-in-law, how's today? Did you find any work?" Tao Jun asked without looking up from his game at the ticket counter.

Su Ning slumped on the old sofa: "I took a job handling breakups, and I was almost disgusted to death. The other party turned out to be a sissy."

Lin Li poked her head out from the kitchen: "That kind of work is too dangerous. You should find some proper housekeeping work."

“I want to too! But the competition is too fierce now…” Before Su Ning could finish speaking, she suddenly heard hurried footsteps outside.

"The manager's here! Surprise inspection!" Tao Jun's face changed drastically. He jumped up and started gathering his scattered personal belongings. "Quick! Hide everything! Company rules prohibit allowing outsiders to stay overnight!"

The three of them hurriedly stuffed Suning's luggage into the bathroom, and finally squeezed the small bathroom into the bathroom along with her belongings.

Su Ning and Tao Jun had to huddle in the bathtub, while Lin Li sat on the toilet seat.

"I'm so sorry! I've dragged you all into this," Su Ning said in a low voice. "I really don't want to be living under someone else's roof like this."

Lin Li sighed: "Tao Jun is just being sentimental. The company has a clear rule that employees cannot harbor outsiders. If he is found out, he will lose his job."

Tao Jun groped in the dark and patted Su Ning on the shoulder: "Ex-brother-in-law, don't say such things! You helped me back then, so it's only right that I help you now."

Heavy footsteps and voices could be heard outside, and the three of them dared not breathe.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Li quietly peeked through the crack in the door: "They're gone, it's safe now."

Emerging from the bathroom, Lin Li suddenly said, "Fang Yuan, from now on, just stay here and relax! Tao Jun and I have discussed it; it's not a good idea for you to keep living in constant fear." Su Ning was stunned: "But it's company policy..."

“We’ll just be careful,” Lin Li smiled. “But you need to find a stable job as soon as possible to help with the rent.”

"Definitely!" Su Ning nodded gratefully.

The next morning, Suning was woken up by a cell phone ringing.

It's an unknown number.

"Hello! Is this Mr. Fang Yuan?" A graceful female voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Yes, that's me! And who are you?"

“I saw you working outside the coffee shop yesterday,” the woman’s voice said mysteriously. “I’m very interested in your…business skills, so I’d like to ask you for a favor.”

"What's the deal?"

"It's not convenient to talk on the phone! How about this? Let's meet first. Regardless of whether you accept my employment, I can pay a deposit of three thousand yuan in advance."

"it is good."

"West Side Cafe, see you in an hour?"

After hanging up the phone, Suning was still somewhat dazed.

A 3,000 yuan deposit? What kind of job is so generous?
After a quick wash, Suning borrowed Tao Jun's electric bicycle and headed to the agreed-upon location.

Gao Yawen was already waiting in the coffee shop.

She wasn't wearing sunglasses today, revealing a pair of bright eyes, and was dressed in a well-tailored beige suit, clearly belonging to the elite class.

"Mr. Fang, I've heard so much about you." Gao Yawen smiled and pushed an envelope towards him. "This is the deposit, please accept it."

Su Ning cautiously refrained from immediately accepting the gift: "Miss, could you please explain what you need me to do?"

Gao Yawen took a sip of her coffee: "My name is Gao Yawen. I need a reliable person to help me with some...personal matters. We can discuss the details next time we meet. Today is just to confirm our intention to cooperate."

"Miss Gao, I only sell my art, not my body."

"Uh? Mr. Fang, you're overthinking it."

After hesitating for a moment, Su Ning accepted the envelope.

Back at the movie theater, when he handed the money to Lin Li, Tao Jun's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

"Three thousand? Just for a coffee?" Tao Jun examined the banknotes. "Could she be... one of those rich women?"

Lin Li slapped him: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

But she couldn't help but look at Su Ning with concern, "Fang Yuan, is this money... clean?"

"Don't worry! It's a normal job." Su Ning herself was also puzzled. "She just said we'd talk about it in detail next time we meet."

"..."

……

Two days later, Gao Yawen called again and asked Suning to meet at a high-end shopping mall.

This time, she led him directly to the men's clothing section.

“Mr. Fang, I need you to change into a few more formal outfits.” Gao Yawen pointed to a dark blue suit. “Would you like to try this one?”

Suning took a step back: "Ms. Gao, if I may be so bold, my clothes may not be from big brands, but the materials and designs are definitely professional."

He tugged at the shirt he was wearing, which looked ordinary but was actually from another world. "Look at the stitching, the fabric... so there's really no need for me to be overly embellished."

Gao Yawen reached out and touched his cuff in surprise, a hint of astonishment flashing in her eyes: "This... is indeed extraordinary."

Then she withdrew her hand. "Alright! I respect your choice regarding clothing. Now, please follow me."

They then drove to a prestigious private primary school.

At the school gate, Gao Yawen finally revealed the truth: "Mr. Fang, I need you to play the role of my son's father."

"What?" Su Ning stopped in her tracks. "A fake father?"

Gao Yawen looked somber: "Daniel is six years old and has never met his father! He's been getting teased by his classmates at school lately... that's why I had to resort to this."

Seeing Gao Yawen's reddened eyes, Su Ning's refusal stuck in her throat.

Just then, a little boy with a schoolbag came running over: "Mom!"

“Daniel!” Gao Yawen knelt down and hugged her son, introducing him somewhat nervously, “This is…this is your father.”

Daniel tilted his head and looked at Su Ning, then suddenly asked, "Why does Dad never come to see me?"

Su Ning squatted down and looked directly into the child's clear eyes: "Because Dad works in a very far place, he can finally take leave and come back now."

Then he very naturally took the child's schoolbag, "I heard you like astronomy? I saw the Saturn pattern on your schoolbag."

"Do you know what Saturn's rings are made of?" Daniel immediately became interested.

“Ice and rock fragments, and…” Su Ning recalled his astronomical knowledge, “That’s right! Saturn actually has many rings, and you can’t see such fine layers from Earth.”

Daniel's eyes lit up: "Dad, you really know! Mom said last time that Saturn only has one ring!"

Gao Yawen watched in surprise as the two quickly became acquainted.

For the next two hours, Suning played with Daniel on campus, answered his various whimsical questions, and even made a simple rocket model together.

As they parted, Daniel held Suning's hand reluctantly, asking, "Dad, when will you come to see me next time?"

"Soon! As long as Daniel listens to his mother." Su Ning patted his head, her heart filled with mixed feelings.

After seeing her son off on the school bus, Gao Yawen turned to Su Ning and said, "Thank you, Mr. Fang. Daniel has never accepted a stranger so quickly before."

“He is very smart and exceptionally talented.” Su Ning frowned. “But Miss Gao, it’s not right to deceive a child like this.”

“I understand your concerns,” Gao Yawen interrupted him, “but please understand a mother’s good intentions. You will definitely not be disappointed in terms of compensation.”

"It's not about the money." Su Ning sighed. "Never mind! Since I promised, I'll do my best."

On the way back, Daniel suddenly called from his mother's phone: "Dad! I've memorized your number! Can I call you tomorrow?"

Su Ning glanced at the nervous Gao Yawen and replied softly, "Of course! But Dad is sometimes very busy with work. If he doesn't answer, he'll call you back later, okay?"

"Yes, Dad, I'll listen to you."

After hanging up the phone, Gao Yawen said gratefully, "Thank you for your cooperation! Regarding our agreement..."

“I will keep it a secret.” Su Ning nodded. “But I hope you understand that children will grow up one day.”

Gao Yawen looked out the window and said softly, "I know... but right now, I need to give him a complete childhood."

"Okay! Call me if you need anything. This situation is a bit complicated, so I need to set aside time in advance."

"clear."

"In addition, I am a professional male nanny and will definitely take on other jobs, so I hope you can understand, Ms. Gao."

"Can I get a lump?"

"Sorry! I haven't activated this service yet."

"..."
