[Gender transformation, catgirl, urban slice of life, angst and healing, single heroine, slow-burn romance]
Before becoming a catgirl, Ling Xian was an orphan whose parents had both died. She could barely afford to stay in school on public assistance.
Bullied at school for years, she was too afraid to fight back or ask for help. She thought that if she stayed obedient and quiet, and never caused anyone trouble, those people would eventually leave her alone.
But a sudden transformation turned her, at nineteen, into a catgirl barely 145 centimeters tall. She lost her school, her dorm, and her last source of income. With nowhere to go, she searched for food in the dead of night and eventually collapsed beneath the eaves of Su Qingchen's home.
She thought anyone who came near her would only hurt her. But Su Qingchen gave her hot porridge, clean clothes, and a room with a lock she could bolt from the inside.
At first, Ling Xian only dared to ask if she could stay for seven days.
Later, Su Qingchen told her, “You don't have to keep count. This is your home now.”

After reading a few chapters, I feel that there are a lot of problems. Mentally, I have extremely low self-esteem. This kind of character generally does not take the initiative to please or find things to do. If you are afraid of doing something wrong and asks many times, it is usually a character that comes from repeated suppression, denial and punishment from the family. Families without parents generally do not have this character. Most people who are not familiar with it are indifferent. Because she is a cat lady, I will give it four stars 🤔
