A Cat-Eared Wife Crawled Out of My Bed

My pet cat turned into a person and cured my depression, but raised my blood pressure (Tsundere, food-guarding, eccentric catboy bottom x sharp-tongued but soft-hearted, secretly furry-obsessed daddy-type top) (Cute pet turns human + funny everyday life + mutual healing + laugh-out-loud sweet romance) Overworked programmer Yu Shuze lives by one rule: trust code, stay away from people. After spending three sleepless days cleaning up a mountain of legacy code, all he wants is to hug his white cat, Little Mantou, and get a life-saving dose of cuddles. But when he reaches out, the soft fur in his bed has turned into... smooth, scorching-hot skin?! The cat-eared boy kicks him in the chest without a shred of shame. “Yu Shuze! This king is hungry. Go open a can!” Yu Shuze stares at the naked boy and the swishing white tail. “I'll be good. Please call 911.” Yu Manman is convinced he's a chosen cat who won the one-in-a-million genetic lottery. Three hours after turning human: declares himself ruler of the household and demands unlimited cat treats and canned food! Six hours after turning human: loses all his snacks for knocking over a glass cup. Nine hours after turning human: gets so scared by the green-tea butler that he climbs the curtains, then bursts into tears while trying to learn math... Yu Shuze acts cold. “If you can't recite two times two equals four, dinner is boiled vegetables.” But behind the scenes, he sneaks in belly rubs while the kitty sleeps and secretly fills his shopping cart with frilly little dresses. Yu Manman has always thought he can turn human because he's “noble.” Only later does he learn that a little cat person gives up the freedom of being a cat to become human for just one reason.
