[Absurdly unhinged emperor top with no sense of boundaries, a cow-cat] [Patiently coaxing, only succeeds after confessing three times, jealous chancellor bottom]
Lust first, love later! Don't expect Lu Huaijin to understand love so quickly. He's just a little cat.
A mix-up involving two reborn people: the cow-cat is reborn three times before finally finding the owner who loves him.
The cat immortal Lu Huaijin is unruly and restless in his sect. As soon as he takes human form, his master sends him to the imperial household to gain experience and temper his character under the restraints of mortal life.
First life:
Meow, meow meow meow~ Meow! Meow!
Translation: Lu Huaijin becomes the crown prince, and when he meows as a child, people suspect he's an ill omen. His study companion, Shan Liang, also discovers his cat form! What should he do?
Unexpectedly, his companion is a good person. He pretends not to know and helps keep it a secret.
Sadly, Lu Huaijin is set up during his coming-of-age ceremony and his cat ears and tail are exposed.
He is branded a monster and burned alive...
His foolish little companion even pleads for him and is executed too.
Second life:
Lu Huaijin is reborn at the time when he must choose a study companion. To avoid dragging Shan Liang down with him, he grits his teeth and chooses a little black soot-ball standing nearby.
But his former study companion gets angry! This cat is the crown prince, and Shan Liang dares to give him the cold shoulder.
Shan Liang becomes the Fifth Prince's study companion, so they still see each other every day.
And he keeps flaunting a hairpin, swinging it around wherever he goes...
How annoying! Why can't this cat stop himself from pouncing on him?
It's obviously a natural cat teaser.
Luckily, this time Lu Huaijin successfully hides his identity as a cat immortal and ascends the throne. Chasing birds and pouncing on snakes is so much fun. This little cat doesn't care about governing.
He gives Shan Liang the position of chancellor and leaves all the paperwork to him~
The chancellor is so annoying, always urging His Majesty to work hard and care for the people. He just wants to be a carefree little cat.
Unexpectedly, during an assassination attempt, the chancellor throws himself in front of him without hesitation...
Third life:
The little cat is reborn at the beginning of his reign.
This time, he is absolutely going to listen to the chancellor and become a wise ruler!!!
But the chancellor's arms are so warm. He can't help purring and kneading in his embrace~
From Shan Liang's perspective:
When he was young, he became the crown prince's study companion. His family warned him that serving the ruler was like walking alongside a tiger, and he had to be careful with every word and action.
This little crown prince is bad enough being dull and silly, but he also suddenly scrambles around. How is he fit to be heir to the throne?
His stepmother at home mistreats him, giving him only a piece of boiled chicken before sending him to the palace. He doesn't want to eat with the others, so he hides behind a rockery. To his surprise, the crown prince shows up. Sniffling, he shouts "Royal feast!" then grabs the chicken breast in Shan Liang's hand with his teeth and runs off.
Shan Liang immediately pins the crown prince down. Not for any other reason, but because...
What are those two furry ears?!
He thinks he's uncovered a royal secret, but instead, he ends up with a little cat who depends on him in every way...
Reborn again and again, the little cat grows and grows until he becomes a wise ruler.
One thing never changes: this cow-cat belongs to him alone.
