Every Time I Get Caught, You're There—You Call This a Side Job?

share time: 2026-02-01 00:33:14

Lin Chuan, an ordinary wage earner, is bound by the "Side Job Cultivation System," which requires him to earn "merit points" through odd jobs like selling sausages or dog walking to unlock cultivation skills. But every time he starts a side job, he’s precisely caught by Su Xiao, a cold-faced female lawyer—either his stall takes her parking space, or the dog he’s walking pounces on her high heels! Worse still, the system says Su Xiao is his "mission trigger" and he must bind with her to level up. To save his sick grandma, Lin Chuan embarks on a funny journey: selling coffee downstairs at her law firm (only to spill it on her files), walking her neighbor’s dog (which bites her dress), and even fighting for limited milk tea (ending up in the police station). Slowly, Su Xiao discovers his kindness—selling sausages for his grandma, dog walking for stray animals—and her impression softens. When "being caught" turns into "mutual care," Lin Chuan realizes Su Xiao is the system’s ultimate mission, and his "side job" has long become "chasing love."
